The no-jiocs were highly elated by the tmau thWil finest of the chief of police," Mr. Mc Gital yesterday, and took especial pains to show it. Vhy this prejudice n one knows, probably it slices from bad teaching. Paul McGreal can tii nor trill notdisturb any one if he be behaving iiiaseL',jle he white or black, but he will do his duty, tuftt can be nssuredin all cases,- and die TiU be cpiWtfd in p, i both by the ciiL and "military authorities. ! No one wishes liim to ex- ceel Lis duty, and it is desired -that he will not tail belcw it. All will remember, then, that what he does wi l only be - sanctioned when.it is Lis duty, and this.wUlbe the' case, with the force under him. Another Suggestion. Advice is much often er ciTe:i than taken, it is said, but the mayor has alreaJy met suggestions of this paper about the-t-troctsi and o,n the most frequented parts of tin city are to be seen improvements. He has ictcJ likewise about the graTe-yard- above Si. James' church, and it is no longer a.pasture for cows and Logs, and his good nature must be taxel by another suggestion. This is about the numbering a the business. house3 of the city properly. On market street we have two mer chants who are advertising in this paper aff No. 22, aaJ there are feix or ight other houses .on the s iiae street ia thesame category. Aa. o,d e.u ti-ka the country was - looking for Willis' duc ttcie a lew days ago and went to Brown & Aauerscn's jewelry store to find it. Both; of. iLese br.iU.Egf are numbered - alike, so itis stated. Ox' course everything -cannot be done b a uonxnt, dnd ciust not be thought ;of,"'but tiasraiuer should be "attended to . before fall, t for when country people coma in to trade after Keiag what tkey need put inthte-' papers td. be( lad at a certain number . and street, they . go rig'tt tn'cr.j to look for it, and should not-be dis. jpo:?.ted. Besides, it is an iujustice to the aiverti'ser if the streets are numbered - incor rectly, for in such ezamples given above, when occe uisappointed, peoplo have no idea where to j took for the right place.- The numbering will tea rig t tedious job, but there" are. so-many reasons why it is necessary -that it should ibe; ono, that a little unpleasant duty must be put .
