timato social relations with our best citizens, tho appointment of no man to thiB place would bo likely to give more general satisfaction. Mr. Field is himself an author, and his knowledge of tho early American historic records is recognized and appreciated throughout the commonwealth of letters. Mr. Field's election to the office was totally unsolicited and unexpected to himself.

His salary was fixed at $5,000 per annum. While he holds its aoceptance iu abeyance he can hardly refuse a position which is so much in the line of his habits and his tastes, and in which he can bo so conspicuously useful.

He wished, it to bt hnderBtooa that property owners did not want it upon this street. If horses did not succeed ho did not see how we could be benefited by the new motive power. Mr. Shepard Baid that according to Alderman Richardson's plan the line would be of no UBe. unless three or four cars were run at ono timo at tho rate of twelve miles an hour; if they ran at that rate everything would require to get out of tho road.

They may tako it for granted that if this fails, they would allow somo ether power to be brought in, and that will bo steam. One of the reasons for the reduction in value of property was the cloud which was perpetually hanging over them.

Thoso who favor steam never havo asked directly for what they wanted, and property holders must moet theso repeated attempts upon the part of interested parties by resistance on their part. A protective association Ehould De formed to meet and throttlo theso Bcbemes at the threshold. He hoped that as largo a gathering as possible might meet on Thursday.
