Our little joke of two weeks ago. commend
ing the article of the PREss's correspondent
N. understood to be the Episcopal prelate of
this diocese,) in regard to the observance of
Good Friday and Ascension day. and suggest
ing mode in which call Christian believers
might celebrate them together,"-the high
church bishop, who knows no church but his
own, and our close communion Baptist
brethren, who admit none but the immersed
to the Lords table, in mutual recognition of
each other joining with other evangelical
churches in common celebration of the
eucharist-has had funny sequel. Brother
Burrage Of the Advocate saw the point, and in
the same spirit proposed that the celebration
should be. made to include the Universalists,
Unitarians and even the Roman Catholics as
well-a rather adroit evasion of our point, we
admit, but we fear not quite logical. No mat
ter, however; now comes the fun. The Press
and several other papers took all this as sober
earnest, and gave both the Mirror and Ad-
vocate unbounded praise for their liberality of
sentiment. The judicial correspondent of the
Press, who is so sharp in detecting errors in
our criminal statistics, says:
"Such liberal and truly Christian sentiments
do honor to the heart as we'll as to the wisdom

their offer for street lighting, reserving the
right to add to the refined naptha lamps if

met the agent in the best Of spirit.
The report was accepted.
Mr.. Mari offered the following order:
ordered That the Gas Agent, Mr.. j. W.

CEMETERIES AND PUBLIC GROUNDS.
The ordinance in relation to the apportion-
ment OF commissioners of cemeteries and pub
lie grounds, was on motion of Mr.. Galley
taken from the table. Mr. Galley moved its
indefinite postponement, and it was so post
poned.
FILTH AND ASHES.
An order was passed that the City Marshal
appoint some place where ashes and other filth
may be deposited, and also see that the ordin-
ance on filth be enforced.
