A good deal has been said land- written about sewerage, both pro and con.

To this Board-let all matters ing to-morrow night recommend, to the Council thtrc they appoint a Sewerage, Bonds, Etc., Etc. We dislike to be forever telling our readers over sod qver about the above subject, but* we are in pursuit of “light,” not. only for ourselves, hut others. The Newsman seems to be burdened with jbut one idea, and that is mneraye or ho mrerage. He has gone so fn- as u> interview a drummer all the way from some where, to prove that sowerage would be a great advertisement for our oity. There is no man so utterly blifid} or possessing so little sense, as not to know that every place requires some system of sewefage—some way to get rid of its filth. That is not the questions at issue. Let us state — —- «** iuiwrcio ui> issue. i,cs about the sewerage or .other public* them, for there’are several: Improvements bo referred-—as to sewerage to decide how much, and where most needed, to be done each year, or whether the v&ole place as mapped put shall • be done at once.

ANOTHER CONTEST. A-' Christmas afternoon there is to be '^she big match of the season Three fine turkeys will be shot ^or— each marksman shooting thirty sin gle and ton double shots, in all fifty clay pigeons. This 'should settle pretty conclusively the matter of clay pigeon prowess. In so largo a number of shots it would be hardj a man to do other than show his ri ability as a marksman. The general average would show, him up in his real light as a shootist. The win ners in this contest might well be considered the champions of the club.

Durfng his business as a merchant he did a credit business, and a lady living here became indebted to him in the sum of $24. By some reason she became in very straitened cir cumstances and could not pay the bill. She left the city, and tho amount was forgotten by the mer chant and known nothing abodt by ^iis heirs. One day this week, how ever, one of his sons went to the office and secured from the box a let ter addressed to bis father. He was very much surprised to find that it contained $24 in bank notes, with a bill which the father had presented twenty years ago. The bill, too, was interesting. Meal was charged $1.8.0 per bushel, thread ten cents per spool, molasses $1.40 per gallon, and everything else in proportion. Tho lady stated that she had been in very bad circumstances until lately, when she had come into the prosscs- sion of some money and wanted to pay theJiHl. A certain class of thieves in New York seem to make a good deal of money. Two men were arrested in that city the other day, and they pleaded guilty to stealing from the hallways of fashionable residences. Within a very short time they suc ceeded in getting possesion ofabout $500 wortli of overcoats, and no doubt a good many of their robber ies were not traced. They thought the business sufficient!}' remunera tive to warrant the taking of the risk of arrest ana conviction.

Owing to the dust arising from type metal, and the tendoncy of com positors to lean over the case while at work, it has been frequently as serted that tho printing. bnsiness is not conducive to long life, . This U a mistake. There is scarcely an indoor occupation, when care as to eatihg and drinking is observed, that is healthier than that of printing. Dur ing fever periods in the Southern States, they were singulnrly exempt Recently the cholera prevailed in Chili, causing great mortality among the people, yet out of one hundred members of the typographical union of Valparaiso, not one member had been attacked.. In the visitation of yellow fever in the fifties in Alabama and New Or leans, tho printers were the last to leave their post of duty. On one oc casion the writer passed through Montgomery, A labaraa, where a com positor on the Alabama State Journ al was the only white inhabitant in the plague stricken city. As we were then returning to New York, we had to pass cither through chol era at Nashville and in Virginia, or go through yellow fever at Mobile or New Orleans, so we did not tarry in the city; but on returning next sea son, we tried to make the acquain tance of this brave typo, lint found that he bad from some other ailment “closed his tako” and passed to that bourn from whence there is no re turning. During the recent epidemic In Flosida, we have heard of but very few printer* among the victims, but they have stood nobly A Case of “Prejudice.” / A New York wopan has scoured a divorce from her husband on the sole grouneb that ho deceived her into marriage by assuring her that* the dark tint of his skin came from Portuguese and not from negro blood. Many of our Northern friends assure us that there ia no prejudice, or at * least discrimination, ogalnBt the ne gro in tbeir pail of the country. In view of the ease just cited, wo would like to ask them a question; Would tho court havo held it to be good ground for divorce had tho man been a blond and deceived tho woman by telling her be derived his complet ion from a Russian ancestry, when in truth it came to him with his German blood ?, Wo think the‘court would havo refused to listen tq a plea so silly—would have regarded it as mere subterfuge.
