Il Voicc From the SicM 1Tard.

To the Editor Of the Globe.
It appears that Alderman Mccarthy is re-
ceiving good deal of the underground op-
position of the so called stalwarts. The
people Of the Sixth ward must certainly be
aware of the fact that he has made an excel
lent representative of their interests. It is
notorious fact that in ward improvements
the Sixth ward has actually secured more
than its share both in street lamps and side
walks, nearly all of which has come out of
the general fund. At the last meeting of the
council he has had two cisterns for fire pur
poses allowed his ward. BE has at the Game
time fought with great persistency the re,
funding of the city's old debt by the issue of
new bonds, unless the Sixth ward was exempt
from taxation for the payment of the prin-
cipal or interest on said bonds. It must be
remembered by the citizens of the Sixth
ward that it was principally through the in
fuence and efforts of Alderman Mccarthy
that bill was passed through elegislature
last winter for the construction of a levee in
the Sixth ward, $4,000 of which is to be
paid out of the general fund of the city. It
is safe to say that not one dollar for said levee
would have been allowed out of said general
fund if it had been for the efforts of Alder
man Mccarthy. By his legislative expert
ence and influence with the members of
both houses he succeeded in his efforts
where less determined men would have
failed. We assert that the best interests of
| the Sixth ward demand the return of j. G.
Mccarthy to the common council, and have
no doubt that all people of good sense will
view the matter in the same light as we do.

The peevish and puerile Dispatch carps at
Gen. Averill because he declined to lead the
Republican forlorn hope. Gen. Averill was
most outrageously treated by his party.
Both health and business rendered it impos-
sible for him to serve, and he so stated in an
open, manly manner. That there might be
no mistake, he telegraphed from Appleton
an additional and positive declination, but
with persistence which was insulting (be-
cause it assumed he was acting false) the
convention nominated him. To find fault
because he will not swallow the insult, is both
mean and indecent.

TO be sure Hayes was not nominated on
the Republican platform of 1860, and per-
haps he ought not to be held responsible for
the utterances of the National Republican
convention of that year. But the party ap-
pears to have experienced change of heart,
for in the platform of 1880, which nomi,
mated Lincoln, we find this resolution:
That the maintenance inviolate of the right
of the States, and especially the right of each
State to order and control its own domestic in
stitutlons according to its own Judgment ex.
clusively, is essential to that balance of powers
on which the perfection and endurance of ou,
political fabric depends; and we denounce the
lawless invasion by armed force of the soil Of
any State or Territory, no matter under wha
pretext, as among the gravest of crimes.

Retrench7sae3,t.

To the Editor of the Globe.
Some four months since the committee
of twenty-one was appointed by
the board of trade, to devise ways and
means to relieve the over -burdened tax
payer. Now, as tree is known by its fruit,
let us examine the quality and quantity of
this twenty-one nursery, and see if it be pal
atable to parents and taxpayers.
First-Tne fruit of good order is sampled,
and we find no great change, only the tree
has been replenished with dressing
of gold dust and horse flesh.
| But we have no fault to find. We desire
| the fruit to attain its greatest perfection,
aud willingly concede the extra outlay.
Secondly, we find the narrow gauge tres
bearing no fruit, but the vine dresser ready
to pledge himself it shall bring forth if
| $500 be spent in giving the roots little
air, and this followed by an annual expendi-
ture of $1 500 to keep the soil moist and in
a productive condition: but we grow i'm
patient to behold the retrenchment apple.

Many of our girls and boys will lose one
entire year of valuable instruction during
their school life, if our school year be short
ened as proposed. The plan ought
not to be listened to for one moment. Now
one word upon salaries, and the fruit is all
sampled. It is proposed to deduct per
cent. Oh all salaries under $500. Then a
salary of $4OO will be reduced $24. Not a
large sum, you say, but quite an item, never
theless, for young lady who clothes and
boards herself on salary of $500 or even
$500. But yesterday one of our primary
teachers said that she was studying close

been unusually heavy. Trade at both ports

but the absence of speculation confined busi-
