III IL to be hoped that the differences
between the Board Of Mayor and Alder
men and Dr. PEBBLES, President Of the
Street Railroad Company, will be amicably
and promptly adjusted, 80 that the wishes
of the Board as to the location OF both
bridges over Town Greek may be carried
out, and that DIR. PEBBLES may be allowed
such equitable compensation or concessions
as may be right under the circumstances.
The street railroad ought to run through
the center OF Capitol street, instead Of near
the south side, as il now the case from
the Government Building 10 West jackson,
Its track could thus pass over the new
iron bridge, which it is very desirable
should be in the center OF the street, and
thus avoid the necessity OF two bridges
where one would better answer the pur-
pose. But the track and bridge have occu-
pied the present location for thirteen years,
and we doubt the right Of the Board to
order change thereof without the consent
OF the Railroad Company, or without some
compensation or concession that will be
equal to the expense incurred in removing
the bridge, and the suspension OF street-ear
travel for the ime required. But that
the arrangement proposed by the Board--to
run the railroad track over the new iron
bridge-would be for the best interest Of
all concerned, will be generally admitted.
We hope, therefore, inasmueh as the
Board and the Railway Company, are I'M
able to agree on terms, that they viii refer
the matter to committee of disinterested
citizens TO make such award az may be
equitable and just in the premises. Our
own idea il that the street-car company
should remove its track so as to cross
the new bridge, and pay its pro rata an
nually toward repairs, and that its exemp-
ton from tax should be extended from
five TO ten years, on condition that the
track shall be removed to the center OF
Capitol street the entire length thereof.

DEAR MADAM--It gives me pleasure to

Orphan Asylum. The managers are en-
couraged to hope that the Institution will
be sustained, when $500 is the result OF
the efforts of five little girls. Such con-
tributions are highly appreciated as proofs
of sympathy felt by children for those who
are dependent upon charitable public
for home MAY God reward them, by
sparing the lives Of their dear parents,
and may He never let them feel the want
of a mothers loving care. One OF the
orphan children, Jessie Day, is slowly
passing away OF decline. She is very
patient and has every care taken of her,
but / have no doubt, in the lonely hours
of the night, she longs for her mother who
died about a year ago. There are In the
ASYLUM about IS children, all in good
health with the exception of the above
mentioned little girl, and are as happy
and contented as the majority OF children
The managers desire me to tender their
thanks, with the gratitude Of the orphans,
to Mr.. Lemon, for his donation OF $500,

entertainment. to the friends who respond
ed so promptly to the call and lastly, to
