We regret to learn that petition to make nn unimportant change in the Ganemah road where it turns to the left at the lower end, crossing lat eral lots diagonally in order to reach Main Street, has met with cooildcrablo opposi tion. The proposed Improvement would bring the Cnnemah road down a block or two lower on the back street, and then reach Main Street through a side street. Nobody's rights would be interfered with by this change lha symmetry of the up per end of Main Street would be preferred, ami if any permanent Improvement should ever be demanded and carried out, the street would then be where it must eventually be, further back and higher up, than it now is, where it turns down to the left through the sandy bank, into Main street. Our city, deprived as she is of a large part of her productive Industry, as well as prod DCtive capital, is following a most sui cidal course of policy by opposing it, this or any other way the investment of capital in machinery and permanent improvements. While the interests of oue, two, or halt a dozen may be opposed to improvements, or to those who are disposed to make them, the whole community are far more in terested in seeing such projects fostered and carried out. have been handsomely attended, went off, Out was given nt the Union Ball in Oft nemah, and the other al Washington Hall in this plaee.
