In one cage a fine of rive dollars witheSSCS WSB imposed. In the other case,the Mayor with the eonssnl of the cor¬

pa*sed in 1871. Heretofore lt hal notbeen enfoiecd, and as we all know,nearly all trams have regularly violateditt provisions. Complaint having beenmade by the Sergeant of theforpoiation.warrants were issued and the cases weietried. The railroad Company since thewarrants were servtd have compliedwifh the law. The effect has been atjcfathat the people ot the town are heartilyashamed of having any Sttoh law upontheir statute books, and petitions nuun*r-
ously signed asking the Connell to repea!the law, will be presented at their nextmeeting. The Council, we have no
doubt, will either repeal the law entire¬ly or so modify it that it trill not in-convenience me company or the trayling public. A speed of fifteen or t setmile6 would be less dangerous thanspeed of «ix miles which permits sm
