The Public Hearing.
There is a great deal OF interest mani
tested In the public hearing to be held
the 10 inst, on the resolution providing
for the laying Of double track on Broad
street, from the southerly end OF jerks
Park to the Valley Bridge. The taxpay-
ers in different parts Of the town are salts
fed with the action of the Council in re-
scinding the vote, but the hearing on the
matter will be none the less harmonious
in consequence. The efforts OF a few of
alleged public servants to cater to the
wishes of the corporation, rather than

minds OF many and the hearing will un-
doubtedly be productive of some inter-
esting developments.
