The Hill and Cleveland Democrats are still accusing each other fdr their defeat In Rhode Island. The manager of a Hartford museum baa eloped with the fat woman, who was also a gifted snake charmer. She'll be a useful companion if he should ever have "the horrors." It wb not strange that the Demo crats of Jeisey City wanted to burn the City Hull when they found Mo Dermott beaten.

That the Injunction JJrl'ectusilly Ties up tho Ilnmls of tho Jteckless Council, men There Cannot he n .Shadow of Doubt What Will They DoT HERE scorns to be considerable confl ct of opinion over the injunction of the Sbonandoah "Water and Gas'Cjrnpany against the borough, which was mado per manent by a decision of tho Poltsville court on Monday last. The docision of tho court was very brief, so tho Herald has resorted to the complain ant's bill in equity to Rot at the giit of tho injunction and the facts upon which it is based. In their bill the complainants alleged that the erection of the proposed water works would Increase the indebtedness of the borough to an extent far beyond the two per centum of the aisessod valuation of the real estate of tho borough; that, in truth and fact, it wmld incroase tho indebtedness to upwards of twelve per centum of the assessed valuation, and that no olection.by the people had been he'd to authorize the increase of indebtedness, and that the said increase was attempted wholly without warrant of law and without logal authority. Too Injunction asked for was that the Respondents bo restrained from contract Ing for any machinery or other material for the purpose of building water works; to restrain them from authorizing any work to bo done thereon, In the name of the borough, and from making, signing, seal ing, delivering or issuing any bond or Instrument of writing of any nature what soever, for or on behalf of tho borough, for the purpose of erecting any water works for tho borough.
