with any good man for Corporation Counsel.
:, There was considerable speculation yoBtorday na
: to who tho Corporation Counsel would DO in caaa
twas not Judge AcAllistor. Tic Hon. john
. II. Rountroo's friends were dilating on the many
beautiful qualifications ho possessed for that
placo, or moat any other, and " tho boys,r as
: they arc aneotionatoly termed by each othor,
were, rather for him than otherwise. .''t'J m u
Mcdrath Is for Rouutree; Pote Mahr ia ardent
for him, and Lengachor is in the sarno frame Of
mind. Rountreo was very much talked up last
evening, but some Of tho mora comprehensive
minds, whose vision is not olrcumscrbed by
city limits but takos in whole statos, wero
doubtful Of tho wisdom or proprioty Of dopriying
the State at large OF Mr. Rountree'a legal hou-:
naon' during tho coming aoason Of tho Legsla-
ture. Tho narno Of Judge Norton WAS mon-
toned in tho most, influential circles. It is not
known that he would tako The place, but it was
conceded that he would be moat excellent man,
not inferior to Judge McAllster. Thus stands
tho matter now.
THE MAYORS MESSAGE,
hia maiden effort, will bo presented to tho Coun-
Gil TOMORROW eyoning. It will not be long.
: There will be some allusion to tho wonderful
growth Of tho city in the past two years to tho
various departments, including royiow, Of tho
finances; somo suggestions as to what should
be done; o compliment to the ability of tho
