o matter to. what party

no matter to. what party
they belong. Without such men
we can effect but little improve
ment 4; such men as are interested in
the city and in its prosperity, who
will exercise a watchful care over
both its moral and material inter-
ests, acting in all things with con-
scientious regard for the general
welfare and private happiness !;
mindful that this is the capital of
an imperial state, the seat of
its institutions of learning and
charity, and able and ready to act
up TO all the requirements of our
condition. BY prudence and econ-
Omy we may be prevented from
drifting into threatened discredit
and bankruptcy, and saved from
burdensOme and oppressive tax
alton.
"Let us reason together" about
these things, and adopt some plan to
improve our condition and prospects.
Our best men should move in this
matter and make an effort to have
the affairs of the city placed in the
hands of honest, industrious and
capable men, who will administer
the trust for the benefit of the peo-
pie upon correct principles and with
judiciOus economy, and who will
see that every dollar of the city's
money paid out shall be represented
by debt paid or something added
to our comfort or Improvement. If
such Il movement is made we have
confidence enough in the foresight
and intelligence of our people TO be-
lieve that they will rally to It's sup
port, and secure TO il triumph and
to the inhabitants of our city al
early enjoyment of its benefits and
blessings.

AND now an eminent judge says !:
"They put lot of ignoramuses into
a jury box nowadays, and then at
tempt to tickle a mans vanity by
telling him that heis to be tried by
jury of his peers. No wonder so
many criminals commit suicide
rather than have such a stigma cast
upon their family name"
