Work Delayed.-The bridge across the
canal at the foot of Hull street has been
condemned by the City Engineer as being
unsafe for persons to cross for over month,
and the contract for building new one has
been awarded; but as yet not single thing
has been done towards repairing it. There
is private bridge near by which is used,
but the owners, while they were willing the
city should have the use OF it for short
time, are getting tired Of this long delay.
The City Engineer should see that the
bridge Is repaired at once.

PARDoNED.-The Governor pardoned yes
terday Jonathan Otey, Of Floyd county,
sentenced to three years for bigamy, OH the
grounds that the prisoner is an extremely
ignorant man, seventy-siX years old. Hav-
ing been deserted and abandoned by his
wife for more than five years, he contracted
second marriage without obtaining q d.
vorce. He was led to believe, and did be-
lieve, that such desertion and abandonment
operated rs lawful divorce. His guilt was
technical. Moreover, it is proved that his
health is so broken that further imprison-
ment would kill him. His pardon is recon-
mended by the Judge, prosecuting attorney,
condition that he is not to cohabit with
Catharinc Carroll (his second wife, so called)
until he shall be remarked to her, after hav-
ing been lawfully divorced from his first
wife.
