circulation, in New York, relative to

The Canadians are invited to de-
clare their independence, in palmer
words than it has used hitherto, by
she London Times, which says to
them in a recent article: "From
this time forth look after your own
business yourselves; you are big
enough, you are strong enough, you.
are intelligent enough, and if there.
were any deficiency in any Of these
points, it would be supplied by the
education of self-reliance. We are
both now in a false position, and the
time has arrived when we should be
relieved from it. Take up your
freedom; your days Of apprentice

One hundred and eighty-fOur make a majority in
In the Electoral College. SO, from present appear
ances, Greeley will have forty votes to spare,
and will be sure Of election to the Presidency.
General Toombs has been making another
Characteristic speech, which we elsewhere re-
produce. The Mobile Tribune Greeley and
Crafty pays its respects to the irrepressible
Toombs in the following style:-
General Toombs is not noted for wise and con-
siderate utterances but the rather for Incorporate
and ill-advsed extravagances OF speech, which can
cred he would never have been guilty of the folly OF
promising to sdrink all the blood which secession
should cause to iowo This JUS last speech, Is, Ike
unto that. full of unpurposed mischief to his own
people.
The Nashville Union and American Greeley,
Grant keeps relates the following:--
Southern republican, "native here,n having
expressed some dissent to Grants denomination,
was INTERCEPTED by carpet-bagger, who was, as
matter OF course, an Office holder. why you
Greeley before you would for General Grant, who
whitewashed us in 1866 7" "Yes, would, and so
would every man who was resident here before
black washer ever since. could state grave OBJ
jections to Mr.. Greeley, but serious as the
company which Grant keeps and enjoys"
The Pittsburg Commercial (GranD pro-
pounds this political conundrum:-
What Is the significance Of the fact that Mr..
Greeley Is so warmly supported by the secession
leaders generally, by Tammany Hall to man, and
by debauched political leaders OF both parties gen.
erally2 The fact Is too conspicuous to be without
q reason, and what that reason Ii people who pay
attention to politics want to know. What is itY
sWhere is Colonel A. X. McClure2" asks
the same paper. Not being at the New York
conference the Commercial seems to be some
what exercised in regard to his present
political locality.
The Cincinnati Times thinks that although
Boston may jubilate Greeley will have no
Jubal Early. The same paper announces that
George II. Pendleton is to be counted out in

The Streets-NIore Water and Less Dust
Wanted.

wanted.
The new broom on our streets is doing pretty
well. 1t is decided improvement on the old
one. Besides, we wish to give those who have
undertaken to clean the streets q fair chance,
and therefore, would not be over critical at
the beginning. Nevertheless there are some
improvements to be suggested. For instance,
the street cleaners literally, and without any
figure of speech, have been kicking up great
dust. With the wonderful muscular energy
they exhibit, and the dry hot weather, the
ever the sweepers are at work. Peoples eyes,
mouths and clothes, as well as the dwellings,
and stores, suffer from this local simoom. Now,
good sprinkling of water on the streets at the
time of cleaning them would obviate this
nuisance and be a great boon. Let
the water be used hereafter. Then,
why could not the sweeping and clear
ing away of dirt be done at night instead
of during the day? Men could work much
better and with more comfort in the cool of
night than under q burning summers sun.
They could sleep in II day time. We sup
pose uHere are lew lhoofcfs VINO WOulu not pre-
fer to work at night, though the convenience
and comfort of the mass of our citizens should
be the first consideration We would suggest,
too, that some regulations be made by the city
authorities with regard to the heaps of lime,
mortar and other things on the streets where
building is going on. People passing are at

suggestions rather to aid than to hinder opera
tons.
