Hon. A. C. Baldwin and J. W. Losgykab are entitled to our thanks for Taluable public documenta. Q?1 We are indebted to Hon. J. M. Gïïgobt, Superintendent of Public Instruction, for a copy of his annual report for 1863, , a document wlücb we shall take occasion to notice at lengtli hereafter, giving interesting and important quotations from the same. Jg We cali the attention of our new City adniinistration to the dilapidated and dangerous condition of the sidewalks on many of our streets. Numerous spikes and nails stick up, on which the ladies tear their dresses, and vent, ve fear, mauy unfeminiue expletives. Then planks are loose, and tip up and hit passers by, and numerous holes invite limbs to protrude through and get brokeo. And a few man-traps or Alley-ways stiI exist botii on Main and Hurón Streets - A í400judgiuenlagaiust the city is an incitement to the authorities to compel all careless citiïens to mend their ways. Jf" The roads are in an "awfuel" state, the bottom having fallen out. They are called karé-'but are actually very soft. As a consequence country produce is not coming forward in any quantity. In Wheat and Wool, Oats and Corn, not enough is doing to warrant quotations. Wood is occasionally seen in the street, and woe to the unfortunate who gets out until the mud dries np. Butter is in good demand, and readily brings 25@30 cents per lb. The Hens have itruckfor liigher wages. and Eggs rate at 18@20. Beef is not seen except at the markets, and there we have to pay 12 ets., and for Ham 15(0)16, and other meats in proportion. We are all living higk about these days.

It was an interesting narrative, neatly andeloquently told aad iddei gr#,atly tfo the interest of ths occasion, doming from a eomrade in arms, an intímate frien.l of the deceased, a daily observerofhis military life, it was a worthy 'ribute.
