As an original proposition, we might hesitate: to advise the construction of the market house by the District, or its pureh as built. But in'view of the controversies tween the stall owners and market compan: and that company and the District Gov. ment, and the circumstances generally. as we undeistand them, surrounding the propeit: and its present ownership, we are inelined favor the purchase of the property by the Di - trict and regard the conditions thereof pre- scribed in the bill as practicable and proper.” BURGLARS AT WORK AGAIN.—The gang of burglars who lately were committing almos' nightly depredations in the northern pai the city, have cominenced operations again Last night the residence of ©. 8.

It requires no puffing; the results are its best recommen- dations, and the proprietor has ample evi- dence on file of its extraordinary success in pulmonary complaints.
