That the authorities of the city of Cairo and county of Alexander, be requested to give assurance that they will co-operate with this association in employ ing every legal means of contest and de fence in resisting the payment of either principal or interest of any bond or lmnds of the city or county, not in and covered by the funding arrangement which the voters of the city of Cairo are asked to pass upon at the election to be held for that purpose on the 27th day of June, 1878; and to give further assurance that thf' wiU provide the funds to pay all reasonable expenses that shall be incurred in saia defense and con test." A true copy from tlie minutes of the pro ceedings. M. D. Uarreli., Secretary. Cairo, 111., June 8. 1878. On motion of Alderman Ilalliday, the communication was received and ordered filed. Alderman Ilalliday introduced the fol lowing preamble and resolutions : Whereas. Negotiations are in progress looking to the ad justment of the bended in debtedness of tiie citv, bv an issue of new iKmds to the amount of liftv (50 1 per cent of the aggregate of the principal and overdue and unpaid interest ot the prcv.-nt outstanding bonds, said new bonds to bear interest at the rate of six ("ii per cent per aniiumn, and to be payable in full in twenty 1 20 1 years, tin; interest above on said ii"W bunds to be payable for four years and such per centage of principal to lie paid thereafter semi-annually in ad dition as will pay the principal and interest in full within the specified time, and Whereas, In the opinion of the council, it would be an impossibility for the city to pay the principal and interest of the out standing bonds, according to their term", and that a compliance with the agreements of the new bonds would b tii much as tax pavrrs could respond to: thoivfiup, R'sol veil. That thearrangetneiitv proposed by the Funding Association of tlie United Stat. s. above alluded to and set out more fully in a report lately published by the tax-payer's association of the city and county, should in the opinion of this coun cil be adopted and that voters be recom mended to cast their V ites in favor of it at the election to be held on June 27th, in stant. Resolved, That if said adjustment of the bonded indebtedness of the city is author ized by a vote of the pcopli! on 27th inst., that this council will use every ciertion to carry it out in good faith, and will also adopt every proper measure to prevent the payment of any portion of the principal or interest of tin- bonded indebtedness of the city, except as required by the terms of the adjustment suggested Icy the funding association above allud"d to. and that this council will contribute a reasonable amount of the i xpelises required for a contest with tlee holders of the pro-ont outstanding bomb, as may hereafter be determined after conference with the board of comntis siotiets of Alexander eoiintv, with w hom it is the desire of this council to co-operate in tlie matter, On motion of Ahlernntn Ilalliday th" preamble and rcsolt'.'.ioi s Were adopted by tlie v-ite iis follows: Ayes Haliiil-.y, O'Cailahin, Patier, Rate::!.' its '.

J thilik the ordinance sought to bo fcpcalod. tlie Ifst one for the public. It has been held by our circuit court !u two instances to be legal, and the only question to If decided is whether flic modi fication of the ordinance will be for the public good; if the modification is for the public good, it should bo made; if it is for the benefit of the railroads and docs not benefit the public, this ordinance should not become a law. The ordinance v ider consideration sub stitutes gravel instead of plank between crossings, but retain plank at the cross ings; now if the planking is best for the the street at the crossings, surely it would be better for the streets to have the plank between the crossings. It has been contended that section 8 of the proposed ordinance to be amended is impracticable. If tlie planking can be done at the crossings, why is it iinpraticable to extend it to the whole s. -eet; It may and probably will be less expensive with the railroads to comply with the ordinance than the one to be modified, but it certain ly would not bo so good lor (he public, or this ordinance would have been made ap plicable to the crossings also. Then it must be clear that this ordinance will be hett"r for the railroads than the one now iu existence, but not so good for the public. I am therefore of the opinion that this ordinance should be allowed to remain us it is, and should be enforced if not com plied w ith by tin- railroads. For tlie foregoi ng reasons, I return the the ordinance without any signature. Respectfully, IIe.nuy Winter. Mayor. Alderman l.'alliday moved a reconsidera tion af the vote by which the ordinancewas adopted. Motion carried. Whereupon Alderman Halliday moved that further action on the message and or dinance lie deferred until the first Tuesday iu July. Motion carried.

At the time there was no reason to suppose the dog had bitten any member of the family. Last Sunday the daughter of Mr Banks, aged was seized with hydrophobic symptoms, and the disease rapidly develojied until Sunday evening, when le-r sufferings wit awful to witness. Nothing could done to alleviate lwr tortures. At last m-counts she was still alive. As the little girl l.a tiever been expo--d to 11 rabid dog except the one killed six years ago. it is supposed by her friends that the disease mut hav developed from some slight bite or scratch r'-ceived then, so slight in tact that it wa never noticed I'V atlV one, or cointiiiiill"l of by tlie little girl herself. j I The Nt.'W ''hiss Oil Can, Simtnon's frigators, Wntr-r Cooir-rs and Ici-Cr-am and Iee-Cre 111 Common Fteiz.ers at A.
