He has been witb tbe paper longer than any carrier boy we have ever employed aod his cervices have always been satisfactory. He has been faithful, prompt and reliable in every respect and if it be true tbat tbe boy is father of the man, Hoger Lynam will grow up to be a man of worth aod character. He has collect? ed several tbonsand dollars during tbe time be was in the employ of this paper and bis balance sheet was always clear and correct.

Dr. Baker stated that Ur Brown was mis? taken in h:s declaration mat there was any rule or ordinance which forbids bim toempty slops upon his premises ; that aoy person might do this with impunity, so that there was no cesspool or nuisance created that would be likely to produce 6ickorss. The question was discussed at iecgtb, and a letter was read from Dr. J. C. Spann, bear ing upon the sutjact. The general opinion was that all pipo con? nections with drains are possible sources o danger and should not be allowed. A resolution offered by Messrs Boyle and Chandler was adopted as follows : Resolved, tbat all connections of water and sewer pipes, with city drains shall be discontinued, and it shall be the duty of the Health Officer to see that this resolution is strictly eoforced. Then followed a debate on the sut j*ct cf a swerage system, and on rtoiioo of Mr. Finn the Mayor was requested to call a meeting of citizens in the Opera House at 8 o'clock Tues? day evening of next week to deierrtine whether or not a petition shall be made to Council calling for an election opon the question of issuing bonds to build such sys? tem Attention was called to an announcement printed on a programme which was circulat? ed at the Opera House on the 15tb inst. to the effect tbat with ihc production of the Prisoner of Zsoda on the 2Mb inst. the sea? son would close.
