No question has harraased the members of tbe ConaoQ of this town mora than that of tha method to bo adopted in assessing for the sowers. Tbe matter baa bean brought np at every mooting of the Coun cil for the past three months; as good legal and basineas talent aa there is in the town have taken part in tha diseuseion, and after the matter bad boon (tally considered tbe Council adopted tha foot front plan, with the allowances for side street frontage, as published last week. The law itself under which tbe Council ' contracted for tha sewerage suggests the foot-front plan; and the allowances made for tha aids streets an the aame aa thoee made at tbe suggestion of Bx-Bonator Wallace for his town. If tbe asaeasments were made according to the valuation of the properties sewered a manifest injnatice would be dona tha owners of tbe improved property, and aa attempt to combine tha valuation and frontage plana would reeult in intermina ble trMble. A sewer benefit* a residence just a* much a* it doe* a bosines* block, it i* almoet a* much benefit to a small house a* a large one, and it inersases tbe value of a vacant lot immediately. Several of our citizen* are iiiimi for vacant lota and tbeir first argument in trying to sell those lots will be that they are sewered. When people signed for sewerage they knew they wonld have to pay for it; it is needed and now that the plan of aaeees ments is known, petitions for sewerage continue to poar into tbe Council chamber from ail parte of tbe town. If tbe geatlemen who is now objecting to tbe plan of aaseesment* adopted by the Council, and who writes over the signatnre of "More Anon" has a better plan to sug gest, or any plan whatever,he should make it publlo. A man with so many adjective* in bis month ought to have some ideas in bis bead, and be should have given tbe {Coun cil tbe benefit of them long ago. TUB Howe ef tbe Michigan Legislature has peeeed en act which provide* for the election of PreaUential electors by the the popular rote in each Coogreesional district leaving only two to be' elected by the state at large. P. T. BAJUUM, tbe great showman, died at bis reeidenoe in Bridgeport,Oonn., Tues day evening. Gsomoa P. MravHoe, tbe veteran Sena tor of Vermont, bee tendered hie resign a tion to the governor of that state. THI recent evente in Vow Orleans, and in the coke region of tbis state, make it obvious to aU A—rican citiieus, whether native or aatnraliaed,.tbat tbe tide of im migration from the stome of Europe mast be stopped. The Italians who are fiocking to tbis oonntry.oome from Naples,Measina, Palermo, and other eitie* of southern It aly. all of whiek, outside of the epot* that are kept clean for ynblie occasions and the entertainment of stringers, are worse than pig pens. Tbe people are dirty and lasy, eruel and Immoral, and void of everything that goee to make np an American eitisen. Tbe Huns are probably no better, and like tbe low clees Italians they mistake tbe lib erty of tbi* ooontry for license to do wtaat they pleaee. Our immigration and natur alisation laws need revising, and all aliens in tbis country should be sent oat of it ae soon as they ere detected making trouble. Til s reply of Bodlnl, the Italian minis ter to Secretary Blaine's last note, is more reaaonable than hie other effort*, and Italy will be satisfied if tbe lynchers are prose cuted. Sine* Wedneeday of I act week sugars hive invn from 1+ to 2 cents a pound cheaper, aeoordtng to grade, and tbe Na tional government will part with a revenue tbst fas averaged fifty millions a year dur ing the pest ten years. A tariff was placed on raw sugar many year* ago for the purpo*e of encouraging it* production in thi* country, but the in dustry ba* not grown and cannot grow. Tbe only place* in thi* country where sugar-cane can be grown are •bout the mouth* of tbe Mississippi river, and some of the Texas rivers, and even there an early front destroys the. whole crop, and the land owners prefer tbe safer and surer crop of cotton. No more sugar is produced In tbi* coun try now than was produced thirty or forty year* ago, aod it was but right to tike off ibe duty, though it and tbe duty on rice, were tbe once that the southerner* always favored, while they oppo*ed tbe duties on iron and other thing* that have built up iuimenie Industrie* io tbe northern states.

Citiibx:—A* there is always space open in jour esteemed paper for common school news, or, in fact, any other good and wholesome news, 1 feel at liberty to •end you a few facts concerning the above iramed school, and especially of the last month and last day of the term. The school began very promisingly on Monday, Sept. 22, I*9o. and closed very happily and peacefully on Wednesday. March 18. 1391. The ptr cant of attendance for the term is 90, which, owing to the inclement weather, the distauce many have to go, and the number of small scholars is very gratify ing indeed. During the closing month, Henrv Barkley. Eddie Millison, Charlie Stewlrt. Budd Garvey, Curtis and John White, Clara Gallaher, Mintio and Ada White. Annie Barkley, Clare Stewart, Marv. Eva and Maggie, and Sue Uaworlh misled no days. In the same months we were pleaded to have visits from Sapt. McColloueh. l);reo tor White, Mrs. tt'm. Garvey, Misses Lizzie Barklev and Cora White. We were very much pleased and encouraged by the remarks and words of good cheer they gave us, and especially by the fine, earnest and sensible speech made by the superinten dent, who promised to come back next winter and bring his wife along with him. (Bona fide.) In honor of the man who was "first in war, first in peace, and first in the hearts of his countrvmen." the larger boys had a flag-raising on Friday before the 22nd of February. A fine symmetrical pole 40 feet long, with the "Stars and Stripes" fastened to it, was raised over the school house, and then aud there, the old mansion was dedicated to the cause of education, eqnaiity, conformity to law, and justice f..r all. After three rousing cheers for George Washington, annexation, pay-for your-coinage, the elections bill, the cloture rule, and reciprocity, the boys were so enthused with patriotism that Jack White and Hosea Gnllaber were willing to make in which they would hase+wTOcfluje Rri'ish lion's tail to the Toyanii of the American eagle; and Curt ami .J •tin White were ready to sing a duet, a:.d (iub Melvin and Charlie Stewart could hardly keep from Dancing "Jim Crow" to the tune of Yankee boodle; aud if the Brazilian President, Fonseca. hadn't acceded to the Plnmed Knight's reciprocity scheme, there would have been a declaration of war at once, and the boys would have marched on the tree-dwellers of the Amazon without further notice. On tbe last Friday evening of the term, the school had an old-fashioned "spelling bee" and literary. The evening was very cold and stormy, yet there was a comfort able audience present, and the "beaux aud belles" were there in all their glory. After spelling a half hour, with Orpba Stewart as victor, a short intermission was given for the folks to make arrangements for the remainder of the night, and it is said that a goodly number took advantage of tbe opportunity. After recess, recitations, dialogues, and readings were in order. They were very well performed, and after the announce ment: "There will be a picnic on the last day and everybody is invited," the andience quietly went to "their own homes or to some other body's home. This last day finally came. The day w..s warm and bright, tbe only nice day in March, and it really seem as if l'rovi dence had interposed His authority in our behalf, and had changed Hick's calendar for a day at lea# People with well filled baskets came from all directors There were citisens, patrons, strangers whom wo had never seen or heard of before. The recitations went on until dinner time arrived. After the preliminaries had been performed, Mattie Garvey, Minnie Myers, Orpha Stewart, and Maggie Garvey took poH*essicn of a lot of as fine cakes aud pies as we ever saw, and it wasn't long till the cravings of the inner person were fully •"stifled. The only incident happening dur ing tbe feast was not a fata) but a provok ing one. C. F. White, who had been diet ing himself for a day or so in fond .'uitici pation of the least, was abuu: ready to be gin Kurk when bo discovered that the platter was bare, not even a crumb on it. A little detective work soon located I - "# iinied" in Jim Mcßurney's pocket. It will always be a disputed question bow it got there, at any rate Jim gave it back, and Charlie is no worse of the disappoint ment. Dinner being over, everybody sauntered out to find .some amusement. Tbe fathers and mothers g..t together and talked over their school days; the girl* formed in knots, aud discussed the good qualities of their beaux and tic weather; and the boy* hied to a field bard to a field hard bv to have a game of base ball. Tbe game was a good one, and the plays made by Boyd Garvey, Pierce Flinner. Oscar Sbanor and others will recommend them to Detroit or Chicago next year. Having tired of play, every one natural ly concentrated at the scbool house, where tne bell of authority soon brought quiet ness. Speech-making and singing were then in order. Several of the citizens spoke very entbusiasticaly about the social benefits derived from spendiug a day together, now aud then, aud all were of the opinion that the teacher and scholars bad had a very profitable and pleasant time during the term, and that it was not necessary for a fow interested manipulators to be calling the public's attention to the fact on all possible occasions to make it appear so, whether it'was so or not. By request, Mrs. Robert Wallace was called on a for a solo. It is not at all necessary to say it was sung with the ability of a Patti, for it recommended itself. Tbe teacher, after thanking the patroqs for their hearty co-operation and support, which are absolutely essential at all times, if the school is to be successful; the scholars for their respect and obedience, and the directors for their suggestions and visits, declared the school adjourned with out day. 0- P.
