Editor Commercial News :- -We de- sire to suggest to the Board of Council men tlie propriety, as well as the ne cessity, of replacing Sec. 7, Chap. 9, of City Ordinances, or so much thereof as will allow the running at laige ofj cows and geese. Very many parU of the city are overgrown with grass, anit the authorities seem unable to cut it- down. It is fist going to seed, and next summer wilt p roduce a crop of grass and weeds that will do quite s much credit to an African, jungle as the present year's growth. Rattle snakes are beginning to infest certain portions of the city, and are hidden and :; protected bv the lux uriant growth of weeds in numerous vacant lots, and the long, rank grass that, tangled and malted, almost covers some streets, Vill increase and multiply until some unfortunate tax-payer, with wffe and children dependent upon his aariy moor suner irom tneir poison; and then, after die damage is done, it will be too late to remove the cause, as it was too late to help the city's health by puling up the -'noxious weeds after the yawning graves of Cedar Grov and Greenwood had each received its victim . The'" cows'' and geese would givej us a clear ind healthy city as compared with what we have. ,The cuwe would keep the grass and w eeds down, and the geese hel p them - and be j scavengers besides. We have now tour horses and two wagons, in addition to the street! force, and t to be all of many since housands of dollars of debt soon a mortgage upon the property of us, and vet we are w'orse off in respects than at any one time the war.

The committee of Confederate bond" holders, at London, repudiate the idea of litigation to recojver Confederate property in Europe; their programme is to appeal to the public and to the Con gress of the Uuiled Stafes to remove the constitutional prohibition against the payment of the Confederate debt by the Confederate States.
