This is nothing m re than was an-
tlcipitC'!. We fought tl'.e expenditure
of the public moneys to work p r.onal
spite, and veoppoel tne taxation of
our citizens that one ninu miKht
haras another; and in all this we did
not forget to d suover that th Inter
cuts of tne people would not be sub
served by the opening of the btreet.
We complained iie.-au-e the munev of
our citizen m lieini: wasted, and
beuauxe the open ng of the 3treet,
while injuring a heavy taxpayer,
would not pay for the trouble and
was altogether iiiiiieceasary, and th
supreme court decided that the law
was not iu the favor of those who dis
liked S'd. Abraham, and l'at no one
has a right to destroy hi property be
cause ttiey do not like him.
It is a pity there is not a law iu the

Mr. Dill.itd iinqxcted the machine
Idniself, and while turning the cyl n

his right hand were caught iu a pair

was tnsgoed and mangled, while two

showed remarkable pluck during the
operation.
