The Comptroller said that he was opposed to this reso- lution and to the fssue of any more ponds, He calied it np only to have definite action ont. He said works were being carried on by the Depart- ment of Public Works which were not necessary, and were a generation belore the time. He wanted 1o put himselfon the record as opposed to the piling up of the city dept tor works wiich were @ half century before Ur ue Department of Public Works made contracts and carned on works which were unnecessary and then made requisition for the issue Of bonds and judgments were recovered against the city in connection with these unnecessary and extravagant expen- divures vy the Department of Puplic Works im | provements which are generations in advan the time. Mr. Vance answered that tt was something new to hear the Comptroller making a speech against the issue of bonds, and expressing his anxiety con cerning the increase of the public debr, It is quive consistent with bis general actions here and (¢ cidedly refreshing. The Comptroller (angrily) —‘'l claim the floor and don’t want to be interrupted. Wait until f get through" (be continued). “!he way to reduce 1 dept is to reduce the said improvements.

The Orange Societies Not Likely to Have Any Parade. It is as yet somewhat hard to ascertain precisely bow the Orange Societies intend to celebrate tne 12th of July, the auniversary of the battle of the Boyne. There is a diversity of opinion among them as to whether ‘there should be a parade or not. The predominating sentiment 1s negativ Iv does not desire any public demonstration, and for good, safe, sensible reasons. The socie- ties have already asserted, despite of an opposition feeung, heir right to parade it they choose, and they have done #0 without molestation. They do not, however, desire to perpeinate a useless, senseless, acrimonious feeling between themselves aud another class of their fellow citwens by holding @ parade, but will confine their celebrations to quiet pic-nics among the suburban resorts. The question, how- ever, is not definitely settled, for there is some opposition to (its peacetal and rationai programme. It is more than probable that there will be no parade.
