the Commi ttee on Light reported uDfavor-
ably on the application OF Clay. StreetAetho-
dist church to have lamp placed In "rear OF
said church," / wish to say no such applica-
tion has been made to the Council, and the
character of the eommittee's report shows
that the memorial referred to was wholly
misunderstood. ltwas apetition from the
authorities of Clay.Street church and a large
num1e, of citizens and property.holders
in the vicinity asking that q lamp might be
placed on Adams street .midWa between
Clay and Marshall street-a route which IL
very much travelled by the Inhabitants
and church.g goers in the northeastern portion
of the city, and rendered exceedingly dark
by the thick. foliage Of o row OF large trees
running from Clay to Marshall streets. The
committees report might leave the impress
sion that some favor had been asked by Clay.

The select committee held meeting last
night and carefully considered the plan re-
ferred to them, and concluded to recommend
to the City Committee that primary elec-
tioH be held, and that the voting be vivo
voce. Iewas also decided that the City Com
mittee alone should prepare the tickets for
the primary election, and that no other
tickets would be used. The plan, of course,
embraced many details which are not ma.
tured at this time. The candidates are ex.
pected to announce themselves a feW days
before the primary election, but the time for
holding that election will have to be settled
by the City Committee. &;a ~,

to them to the amount of several thousand
dollars. They have been keeping back the
balances due the Petersburg railroad and
crediting them to the account of the. debt.
In this way they were reducing the debt due
them. They very greatly regret the incon.
venience the public will for some time be
subjected to, both in the way Of freight and
passenger business. ,--,-t- -. -.
