The evident object of the Legislature in enacting a law by which water rates could be reg-ulated; was to protect consumers against excessive charges for one of the prime necessaries' of life. In the absence of such a law a rapacioua monopoly would have the power to exact five dollars a gallon for which, unlike most other merchantable commodities, must be had at any price. The Legislature, in its wisdom, has presumably placed an effectual check upon any attempt on the part of water monopolies to oppress communities; and, as all such corpora SATURDAY.

Mr.

Porter's iirst appearance as a public political speaker was in the Presidential campaign when Henry Clay was a candidate for the Chief Magistracy of the nation. The young lawyer warmly espoused the cause Of the Kreat Kentucky statesman and ''stumped" from Maine to Delaware daring the campaign. He there developed the oratorical powers which have placed him in the front rank of public debaters.
