They have been appointed to represent the citizens of Ottawa, but only on the condiâ€" tion that they should have at heart the welfare of the city. By their position they are given the power to raise money from the people and by the way they are not neglectiul of this part of their duty. But if through the neglect of their duty ctherâ€" wise a person break his leg or receive other injury, and then obtain a verdict for $300 damages against the Corporation, are the citizens going to allow this sum to be paid out of their pockets? Such a proâ€" ceeding would to say the least be unjust, and the body that would sell poor peoples‘ effects on the public market to obtain money to be thus squandered must indeed have a degree of brass in its face beyond the conception of common mortais. During the last year the interests of the city have been systematically ignored if not opposed by the Corfontion and the citizens have probably only been prevented giving vent to the indignation which they felt at the conduct of their reâ€" presentatives by the oft repeated promises of that venerable body, Something lika the " dog in the manger," they would or could not make any improvement themâ€" selves and with persistent obstinacy they threw every obstacle possible in the way of enterprising persons who would endeavour to place the capital of the Dominion in a better position. Ns Blame, however, cannot be thrown proâ€" misculously upon every member of the Corporation ; the head is generally the reâ€" sponsible party. As Sancho Panza said " where the abbot is a good singer the novice cannot be far behind.‘" So in this case, had the Mayor impressed upon that body of which he is the head the proâ€" pr.ety of looking to the interest of the fiublw in this matter it would scareely ave opposed him. He urgeniy recom mended to their favrorable consideration the Water Works question, ard they, inâ€" spired by their chief, heartily undertook the duty. es Sinco the last fall of snow almost every paper in the city has called upon the auâ€" thorities to eb ige residents to clein the snow off the sidewalk in front of their g:perty, but this request is * no where"‘ ide the big Water Works question, and consequently it could not be considered. Mr. Owen Clifford who was tried at the last assizes at Kingston for being an acâ€" complice in the arson committed by his son Francis Clifford, and sentenced two years to the penitentiary, died last Saturâ€" day in that institution. A Guelph paper mentions as an evidence of the increasing prosperity of that town, that the number of registered letters reâ€" ceived during 1869 was 9,000, while the number already receired for the year 1870 is over 11,000.
