Our INEFFICIENT MAYOR. - The Union
says: "Ths Mayor refused to allow the
police to be used in mean, underhand,
sneaking way" If this be true the Mayor
did exactly right. The ARGUS will sustain
the Mayor in such action, always.
The Union further says:
On the day after the interview with Captain
Robinson, be the Mayor instructed ths Oily
Attorney to use every In his power to
bring the case before the courts and have it de-
cded, believing that he (the Mayor was not the
umpire to decide the disputed points between the
two charters.
In this the Mayor either shows lack OF
knowledge, or is neglecsing his sworn duty
for Robiuson's benefit. In either case he
is in the wrong. We find no fault with his
casting vote against the proposed ordinance.
He was pledged to Washington street, before
his election, and by that pledge he secured
his election. He would have been recresnt
to his promise had he voted any other way.
Alderman Copp obtained his election by
fsvoring Eagle street, and he proved recre-
ant to the pro LESSONS he made 10 get rotes.
The Mayor did not.
What we censurs the Mayor for is this ::
He has taken q solemn oath, before his God
to enforce the laws Of this State and City,
and to faithfully and efficiently these are
the words) discharge his d uties. It is no
idle, meaningless thing to take such an oath
and he who takes it should live up to it,
whatever may be the consequences. This
the Mayor does not do. 1t is clearly his
duty to enforce every order, resolution, ETC.,
Of the City Council, or resign. There is no
way for him to escape from this position.
We express no opinion as to where the ferry
ought to land-we care nothing about that.
But we most emphaticAllY insist that our
City Council shall not be placed in the posi-
tion OF ordering thing to be done, and
then submitting to be snubbed and defied.
Either enforce its mandates or repeal them.
There is no other honorable or dignifed
course to pursue.
The Union is correct when il says "the
Mayor is not the umpire to decide the dis
putsd points between the two charters"
Why then does the Mayor attempt to do this
by tamely submitting to have his authority
and his oath de6ed? There is only one hon
Orabls course for him to pursue-enforce the
resolution locating the ferry at Eagle street,
and leave consequences to take care of
themselves.

A FAITHLEss ALDERMAE.-Geo W. Copp,
alderman from the Second Ward, obtained
his election by making assurances that he
would stand by Eagle street, in the ferry
matter. Within two weeks, he has said that
he would have been beaten but for the as
SurAnces be gave in that matter, to get votes.
Within two weeks he has declared that II
he had to vote on the question in the Coun.
oil he should stand by Eagle street. He has
proved fAithlsss to the assurances he volun-
tArily made, and is not worthy Of being
trusted as public officer. He has made
the fatal mistake of suppoEing he had .
right to use the Office for his own or the
OoPp family'S benefit. He should resign,
and give the people . chance to express
'nsir opinion upon his acts. If they sustain
him-Al right. If not, then let the will of
the people bs Obsysd.

DIR. WISTAR'S
BlLsIM Of WILD CHERRY

Is peculiarly adapted to every disease of The
Lungs and liver which is produced by our ever
varying climate.
There is, perhaps, no disease with which cur
country is affeete d, which sweeps off annually
so many victims that fell destroyer of the
human raoe-oonsnmption. Day after DAY
year after year, the insatiate monster hurries
20 the cold and silent portals of the tomb fresh
added victims to it's conquest. No walk of life
is sacred from its lighting influence. No age
is exempt from It's death dealing shafts. The
old, the middle aged, and the young, all alike,
are food for this common enemy of mankind.
The white haired patriarch whose life of TEN
/ perAnes has rendered his system inpervious to
/ the attacks of other ills, and whose good deeds
prepared him for the enjoyment Of lfe's calm
evening, finds consumption fastening its fangI
upon his vitaIs, aud tearing him from world
ever bright to minds which look complacently
on days we'll spent.
Consun ption, in its confirmed and ncipien
stages, coughs, asthma, Group, and liver com
plant, form by far the most fatal class of dir
eases known to our land. Yet even those ma,
be cured by means of the simple yet pewerfu
re m edies that are scattered wherever these NAL
aides prevail.

TIE PRoPosED ORDINANCE in relation to
the ferry ought to have been passed for
several reasons. The question as to which
charter governs cannot be tried, as things
now stand. II the ordinance forbidding
teams to stand on crossings, or drive over
sidewalks, or hitch to lamp posts, had no
penalty attached to it. it could not be en-
fored, except by stshoning policemen on
every block for that purpose. This would
be absurd. As things are, we can see no
grounds on which to bring suit against the
ferry company and if such a suit would lie,
the rssl question could rot thus be reached
1t would simply be a trial on technical points
only,-suCh as, LIST was the resolution pro-
perry passed "a does it have the effect of
an ordinance. Should the court decide that
it was properly passed and has the effect Of
an ordinance, the parties would then be in
exactly the same position as nov. 1t would
then be the duty of the Mayor to move the
boat and let the ferry company sue the city.
That would try tho real question, and decide
which charter governs. Bat this the Mayor,
in the interested the ferry company, neglects
to do.
! What, then, is the proper course for the
Council? 1, is to pass the proposed ordi
nance; then sue the ferry company for $40,
before Police Magistrate, where judgemert
would probably be obtained. The ferry
company would appeal, of coarse
and then the real question of tie
rights of the parties would be determined
This We know to be the opinion of the best
lawyers in town, Of all sides-snd
this is the course the Couuci
should take. It is the verv COURSE
which the ferry company ought to favor, and
the course which we know some in the ferry
interest DO favor If the ferry company are
honest IN their expressed wish to leave the
matter to toe court they would advocate III,
passage of this ordinance. To oppose j
