going at work this winter with better heart

Yesterday morning was bright in the city,
whilst at Dutchtown all morning there was
dense chilly fog. This no doubt arose from
the great number of springs in that vicinity,
which springs, with the others under the
cliffs of the city should be used to give every
citizen bountiful supply of the best water
| that can be obtained, instead of the apology
for water got from the water works which is
of no real benefit except in cases of fire.
Yesterday morning at the municipal court
| Stephen Arnold was before the Judge for

with no damage done. Parties leaving their
horses united on the streets should be prose

/ infested for some time with gang of boys
who pilfer everything that they can lay their
hands on, especially in gardens, grapes and
melons being their especial favorite. They
not only take the ripe fruit, but they break
down in wanton mischief the vines and trees
and we trust that Judge Netheway will,
when they come before him, give them such
doses that they will in future, leave alone
that which does not belong to them. The
