Mr.. Lambert said the committee had
some time ago made such report and sub
mitted resolution,
MIR. SnoWden had consulted persons who
were familiar with the kind of work to be
done on Lee street, and was told by them
mat the work could be done for $500. He
had hoped that this small sum should be
granted. There had never been since the
town was begun one dollar expended by tho
City Council on these two squares.
MT. thompson asked what objection the
committee had to reporting the probable
cost of the work.
Mr.. Lambert responded that the commit
tee lad already reported that it would cost
81 200 or 81 400 to pave the two squares, Of
which the City Council would have to pay
one third. This was the reason no estimate
was reported now.
The subject was recommitted.
When the committee on streets reported
in favor of repairing Duke street from Fair
fax 10 Pit at an expense Of S400,
Mr.. Snowdcn said he could not vote for
the expenditure. He had carefully exam
med the street in question, and he announced
that the pavement there was as good rs that
OF any squares in town of of King street,
ami very much better than forty different
squares in other parts Of the town. He
protested against spending 800 on two
squares which were better than most in
the city.
Mr.. Lambert would be glad to have Mr..
Snowdcn walk with him to the intersection
of Royal and Duke streets, and there get
into green slime over his shoe.tops.
Mr.. Snowden contendcd that that was
matter with which Council had nothing to
do as it was the duty Of the residents of the
neighborhood TO keep the cutters in front Of
their premises clean. He would gladly &C.
company Mr.. Lambert to thespot and would
like for every member of Council to 60 with
him rs he could then convince them that
the two squares in question were in much
better condition than many in other parts
of the city which were much more used. He
protested that it was unfair to repave at
cost of 500 good square, when it was re-
fused to repair impossible carriage ways in
other portions of the town.
Mr.. Lambert said ifany other two squares
Of similar character were presented to Coun
Gil he would vote TO repair them also.
Mr.. Snowden moved that the same rule
be adopted in this case as in cases Of
original paving, the property owners on
each side to pay one third and the city to
pay one third.
The subject was finally referred to the
Committee on Streets.

The abOlishment of internal reve
nue. will prevent any reduction of
the present Tariff, aud sugar, being
an article that will produce more re
venue than amy product imported
into the United States, will be in
no danger OF any further diminu
ton, and may probably lie placed
at a higher figure. At all events it
stands with fari.more safety upon
the Democratic platform than it
can upon the Republican one.
All the reduction that has been
made Oh the sugar tariff in % years
has been by Republican Congress
es and signed b. Republican Presi
dents. II the Tariff has had any
thing to do with the depression Of
tho sugar interests the Republican
party, and the Republican party
alone is responsible.

There was an Expedition fitted
up some time ago to go to the
North Pole under the command of
Lieutenant Greedy of the United
States Army.
It went far enough North to learn
that 80 degrees 4 minutes was farth
er North than 50 degrees 2 minutes.
Some of the men frozed to death.
Some starved and were partly eat
en- by the survivors who we're for
tunately rescued just in time to pre-
vent their death. A great hula
balloo is now made about these
starving men eating the flesh of
their dead comrades. They did
just what any body chemically
these hOwlers-wonld have done,
in similsr circumstances.
These Arctic expeditions are first
class acts of foolishness. No good
can como out of them and it is to be
hoped that that kind of nonsense
will cease.

study the last subject treated upon
