resume his course OF lectures on the dan

gers were discussed in some eight or ten
discourscs last winter, and he now proposes

OPINIONS ON TIE BILL.

HOW THE ALDERMEN HEARD OF THE BILLS
PASSAGE AND WHAT THEY SAID ABOUT IT.
The announcement OF the passage OF the COST.
gan bill by the Assembly created the liveiest kind
OF excitement among the local politicians. In fact,
it was ut first generally disbelievcd, and even
those OF the City Fathers who received private
dispatches from friends at Albany confirming
1t were rather inclined 10 look upon
them as part OF a huge hoax rot
mp especially 10 hoodwiuk them; for the &C.
count in the newspapers OF the detection OF seven
teen democrats IN the Assembly the previous day
seemed, in their minds. to preclude all possibility
or the bill ever passing. As the day wore on how.
ever, even the most doubling Thomas was naalIy
convinced that the news was not, after all, too
good to be true. The Mayors Office from the time
the first rumor OF the passage or the bill was
bruited about was besieged by anxious callers, all
OF whom seemed to have some great personal In
terest in The measure. Although several persons
asked the Mayor what he thought about the mat
ter, he simply contented himself with saying that
he knew the bill had passed. 10 q rep
that IL would be unbecoung In him
to speak about the prospect Of the bills being
passed by the Senate or as to whether he was
glad that II had passed the House. The demo-
cratic Aldermen, on the other hand, were BY no
means close mouIned about the bill. Tho
republicans shook their heads knowingly,
when they heard Of tae news. ana
