THE

TO-MORROW evening the Republicans of this city are called to meet in their respective wards, to nominate candidates for election to the City Council. There is no man so deficient in intelligence as to need reminding of the importance of nominating good men and strong candidates. And there is no reflecting man who will not readily admit that it is his duty to use his influence to Becure proper nominations. It is not more important to go to the polls on election day, than it is to attend the nominating conventions and it is often the case that a failure to attend and give proper direction to a nominating convention, renders futile all efforts that can be made on the day of eleotion. If by using the same amount of time, and taking an equal amount of pains, that are required to attend a ward meeting, every person attending could make five dollars —or even one dollar—in money, there would never be any lack of interest, and a "slim attendance" would never be known. Hut when only the interests of the public are to be served, it becomes "everybody's business," and is, therefore, almost invariably neglected. Is it not time to turn over a new leaf" in this respect?— Cannot every Republican voter afford to devote an hour to the interests of the city, and give his influence to secure the nomination of such candidates as will command the hearty and Unanimous support of the party? It is an old maxim that "Heaven helps those who try to help themselves," and the inference is clear,that those who will not -"try to help themselves" are not deserving of success.

There is not a ward in this city that may not, by united and earnest effort, be carried by the Republican party, if care be taken to select, in every case, the strongest man for the.race.

All this,' however, can be attended to belore the people are called upon to elect a ]ortioh of the custodians of their interests for another year.

THE Journal, a few days since, uttered :i very ill-natured6narl at the report submitted, a year ago, by the finance Committe of the old Council. It didn't occur to the Democratic organ that the report, which it found so unsatisfactory, was wrttten by Ool. Thomas Dowhho. We thought that docnment a very good one, and expressed our approval thereof at the time of its publication. But the Journal husbanded its wrath for a year, and then, forgetting whose handiwork it was abusing^ came down upon the devoted head of its party's illustrousleader.
