ADDI’ I‘IU.\AL LOCAL NEWS, PAYING BACK BACK PAY, The City Fathers Wisely Conclude That They Ought Not to Vote Themnelves a Salary, The public has not forgotten the action of the city council, taken about a month ago, voting themselves back pay, nor has | Tae Ber allowed the public to forget it 'he resolution adopted by the council was an evident, violation of all law, it being to the effect that each alderman shall receive 826 a month for services as chairman of committees, and that this should date back to April 1st. Alder- man James drew his §100. Alderman also took & warrant for a $100, but when public protest was made against the ac- tion he promptly returned it. The other aldermen did not take theirs, and thers the ma ter has rested until Monday night when the resolution was rescinded by a | unanimous vote, Aldermen Eicher and McMahon who were not present when the eriginal no- tice granting the pay was adopted, ex cused themselves from voting for its re- scinding. The council made a very neat little excuse for voting themselves the amount, as will be seen by reading the resolutions: @ WHEREAS, A resolution was passed at a meeting of the council on the 27th day ot July, 1883, allowing a compensation of §26 per mounth tor chairmen of com- mittees. The intention of a majority of the council in passing said resolution was to test the legulity of such allowance, the same having become a usage in other cities acting under our charter, and for the purpose of limiting such allowance to $25 per month, if found to be legal, No steps having been taken to enjoin the ac- tion to test the question, therefore be it Resolved, That it is the sense of this couneil that such allowanco is illegal and contrary to the statute, and be it furtler Resolved, That the resolution passed on the 27¢h day of July, 1883, giving an allowance of §25 per month to each chairman of a committee, be and is hereby recinded. It 18 now a matter of curiosity as to whether Alderman James will pay back the $100 which, uuder this resolution, he has arawn from the treasury. He hau not paid it back up to last evening.

Carson has developed a_bad boy, who is worse if anything than Peck's bad boy, who is counted on as one of the worst boys of his age in the whole United States, His name is Johnny McGinnis, and h lives on King street. It appears that a few days ago Mrs. McGinnis started to give her seven-year-old daugh- tera bath, When she disrobed her by the bath she was horrified at discovering that the young lady was covered all over with the crocodiles, fish, rare ani- mals and Egyptian ibexes, painted on in lasting colors: She said that her brother Johnuy had painted her to get her a chance to go away with the circus. The neighbors were called in, and their low opinion of the boy was unbounded. The elder McGiunis sailed out after the ven- turesome lad and found him John- son's barn, where he was decorating a young lad whom he had inveigled away from his parents. When the elder Mc- Ginnis ceased parleying with the younger McGinnis the trunk strap he brought into the barn had seen its Lul days. The young lad made the following explana- tion of the aff: ‘Yo see, dad’s been pretty Lard up since stocks went down, 80 I fixed Mary up for a spec.

In the course of conversation she remarked that Alock's ship had been dutained fromsome cause, and prohably would not get off until Saturday. And this was Thursday! What o bound my heart gave. She also said that her son was going to the city the noxt day. I detormined to send a noto by him to Aleck. All I wrote was this: “‘I will wait for you,Aleck, When his cousin returned he gaveme from Aleck this littlo vase here (which he afterward learned he lad brought from a foreign country on a. former voyage) and a note.

Trial will come to each li e, but the dear Lord who watches over us all will teach and help us to have patience, i Copper for Roofing. The 8zientific American mentions the decline in the price of copper as likely to lead to the increased use of that metal in building. At present the material for a copper roof costs, at the outset, only about twice as much as tin, and as the latter must be repaired and painted about once in three years, and in fifteen or twenty years must be renewed altogeth- er, the copper, which never necds paint- ing, and is_ practicably indestructible, is much the cheaper material in the end. There are in Boston many capper raofs, put on about forty years ago, which show no signs of deterioration; and the metal cornices, guttersand rain-water pipes, as well us for covering bay-windows, and many other ways, in place of galv ized iron, whi is much inferior in beauty and durability, and not very much cheaper. The copper *has the additional advantage of needing no paint, 8o that the delicato lines of artistic work are in no dunger of being filled up, and the metal increases rather than diminishes in beauty by the slow formation of a° blue- ish-green platina over it. For flashings, as well as other portions of roof, copper is much superior to zine or_ tin, and with the aid of a certain amount,of lead, the most diflicult problems in roofing can be successfully and permanently solved, EXPRESSMEN LIABLE, Mr. A. 8. Merrll, the popular expressman of Bruns- wick, Me., writes us on May 16, 1583, aa follows: “Having been severoly afflicted for abous two years with inflamation of the hidneys and bladder, so called by my physicians, I suffered with distressing pains in my back and retention of wrine, caused'by a stoppage of the neck of the bladder, and acomplication ofother discases. 1 was haidly able o attend to my business and at times would be completely prostrated.
