When the contract was to be made out, Mr. Iliirnelt wished to have It say, that If Hie ,ook made more thin 200 pages in small plea leaded, wo should be paid so much er page for the extra pages. His honor, the mayor, lu the hone of keeiiltiL' the work Irom us, refused to sign such a con tract, and the council, alter exposing out bid, ordered the committee toask for now hliN.
