with thinking gentleman recently

among the men, says writer ia the
N. Y. Sun.

OF the increase OF intellectually, he
said. IL went TO the trouble once OF

and similar crimes (Which were almost
always the result OF ignorance) were
men with heads OF thick. coarse hair.

He said he had taken pains TO look
among the gangs OF street laborers In
search OF badness, but found not moro

ued, II have made IL in my way 10

position would indicates; n man who

the position OF n day laborer, not one
who was born 10 It."
The gentleman went on TO say that
from his inspection of the heads OF
the laborers he has gone into Del
monico's at the hour when the lead
ing business men OF the city predomi-
nate there, and has counted four bald
heads in every group OF five men.
The man who thinks deeply and

The CITY FINANCEs-The city is now well
advanced OH the last quarter of its fiscal year,
which terminates on the 3lst of May. The
town is rather impecunious at present, the out
goes having exceeded the incomes by over
$4,000; but a considerable portion Of this
sum is represented by pavements and
curbs laid this season for which the
city has not yet been reimbursed by the
property holders for whom it has made
advances on her paving account. 1t is calcu-
lated that some Sll. 900 will be repaid from
this source and this, with the $40, 900 which the
city council has authorized to be borrowed will
carry the city on until the taxes of lS90-9l be-
gin to come i'll. There is no proposal to increase
the tax rate nor any probability of its decrease
Meanwhile the city has number of debtors
who have purchased property in which they
were interested at tax sales and still owe for
it. There are tax bills still charged to the COL
lectors rents. &c.-which will net the city over
5000 when collected. So the outlook is by
no means unfavorable.
CIRCUIT CoURT.-Judge Keith now holds both
the corporation circuit court and the county
circuit court in the market square court house.
