The sidewalk question came up before the council last Thursday evening, but the committee having that work iu hand were not all present, and the matter will stand over for another month. It is a dereliction on the part of the town officials that the sidewalks are in their present poor condition—that is where there are any. On many of the streets there is not a vestige of a walk for several squares. Why it is thus we are unable' to say. The council should call a special meeting and fix these things up that the eitizeus may go to and from their homes without using mud-boats.1 Among the attractions of the January Harper’s Magazine will be the first installment of Mr. George du Marnier's new novel, “Trilby,” with fifteen illustrations by the author; the conclusion of Mr. Edwin Lord Week’s uarrative of his journey across Persia by caravan, superbly illustrated ; and a brilliant article by "Richard Harding Davis, entitled “The West and East Ends,, of London,” illustrated by Frederick Barnard.
