1t all that we hear is true, the bout
between Alderman Wood and his honor
Mayor " inter at the last meeting OF the
city council, was rich, rare and racy.
Alderman Wood went for his honor, aud
his honor in return went for Alderman
Wood, and then they went for each other.
The impression prevails, however, that
Alderman Wood got the best
of his honor, and came ont winner in the
long run. But the knowing ones say
the end is not yet, and that the next

Of which Was never before witnessed in
