As tlier6 is such a general concensus of opinion as to the desirableness of a town clock will it nDt be well for a petition for one to be drawn, duly signed and for warded to the proper authorities ? Will it not be well lor the board of city council to take action setting forth the need and desire of the citizens for this improve ment to the public building? The ap propriation is not likely to be exhausted in the construction so there is no reason why any modification of the roof that may le necessary should not be made aod the clock put in upon the completion of the buildiug. Dui; Into Bnrial Vault... In digging to make the basement ot the public building two old brick vaults were lound each of which contained a few human bones that had almost crumbled away from age. Of course no one knows anything about them. It will be remembered that about two years ago while the street hands were grading Broad street, a human skelleton was unearthed in the middle of the street nearly opposite the residence of Mrs. John Hughes. This was only about eighteen inches below the top of the earth. It will be noticed that the skeletons just found were less than a block away from where the first one was found. Progress of Confederate Monument. The Confederate monument has been completed as far as the main shaft. A scaffold is being built around the monu ment to aid in getting the imnieose shaft in place. The derricks have been strength ened prepamtory to the great strain that will be put upon them. This of course is the most difficult and dangerous part of the whole work of const rucl ion. The contractor hopes to have the shaft in place by Saturday night. It is -aid no cement will be necessary as the immense weight of the stone will keep it in place. Ril. Correspondent Wil. Messenger.

The Fusion Legislature passed a 6 per cent interest bill claiming that it was for the benefit of the "poor farmer," und then, as if to mock him with l.lse hoes, turned around and passed a law prevent ing him from borrowing money at any price. That is flic (ff -ct of the law iu rega d to mortgages, bought through by lob'y- ists employed by the Baltimore Board of Commerce. News & Observer.
