THE INFIRMARY. We learn that the Off
cial examination of the Infirmary, of which
we spoke yesterday, resulted in the conclu-
sion that the fault does not lay so much with
the keeper as in the want of the necessary
accommodations. These it is the business
of the commissioners to furnish, and it is al
legged that they have been frequently notified
during the past four or five years, of the ne
cessity Of making more ample provisions for
the poor. Owing to the want of suitable
apartments at the lniirmary, from 100 to 100
poor families are now kept in different parts
of the city, at great expense, when, If proper
accommodations had been provided the cost
would not have been more than one-fourth
as much We are told that, for the last
year, the expenses for keeping the poor in
this county were between fifteen and twenty
thousand dollars. This greatly increased
expenditure is, in part, owing to the rapid
growth of the city, and the unusual amount
of sickness that has prevailed among immi-
grants during the past Year; while the want
of action on the part Of the commissioners,
may be owing to their reluctance to making
an expenditure, the necessity of which they
did not clearly foresee and thus imposing
a heavier burden Of taxation on the county.
However this may be, we are glad that
public attention has been called to the
subject, and we hope such measures may be
speedily taken as will remove all causes OF
complaint. We understand that the town
ship trustees and directors Of the lnfirmary
have made report of its condition to the
county commissioners. who are now in ses-
sion.-[ Toledo Rep.

New DOME FOR THE CAPlToL-We learn
that the accomplished architect of the Capt.
tol, Thomas u. Walter, has completed the
design of magnifcens new dome for the
centre building of the Capitol, which is said
by those who have seen the drawings to be
the most splendid conception of American
genius, in that line, ever witnessed. 1t is
intended to take the place of the present un-
couth and clumsy affair which disfgures the
structure, and is necessary to perfect the
symmetry and architectural beauty of the en-
tire building, when complete. 1t will be
constructed entirely of cast iron on the
foundation of the old dome, and, if Mr..
Walter shall be permitted to complete it
according to his own design, and without
interference from men of inferior taste, ex-
perience and ability, it will be magnificent
monument of his skill and genius, and CON
tribute as much to perpetuate his fame and
reputation as an architect as did the dome
of St. Peters that of Michael Angelo
Wash. Sentinel.

NIGHT RUNNING UPON RAILRo ADS. We
have sometimes heard it remarked, by timid
persons, that they would not travel by night
on the railroad-their impression being that
there is more danger Of accidents in the
dark than during daylight. Upon first
thought, this would seem to be the fact but
a writer in the Railroad Advocate takes a
different view of the matter, and certainly
makes out good case. He says there are
many circumstances which make night-run-
ming mparatively safe. All work upon
the track is stopped. Comparatively few
other trains are on the road. No drawbridge
would ever be likely to remain open in the
night. Switches are more likely to be right
than at other times, as they are not in use
for other trains, and are locked. The signals
for night trains, being made by light, would
scarcely fail to be observed and obeyed and
what is important, would be seen at great
er distance than any other signal in daylight.
The engineer has less to attract his attention
than in the daytime. While, after all, a
rock or tree falling across a bend in the track
in broad daylight, or an intended obstruc
ton, is nearly as much hidden danger,
as if encountered in the night There are
many places in nearly all roads where the
range Of view is less than the reflection Of
the headlight" at night. SO, after all, it
would appear that one can take nights
rest in railroad car with comparative
safety.

FROZEN TO DEATH.-The Placer Herald
states that Mr., Richard Corey, brother to
William Corey, Esq, member of the legisla-
ture from Placer county, California, left
Devils Basin, in that county, on the 9Th
ult., on hunting excursion, and not return
ing at the time expected, his friends started
in search of him. In short time, by hal
looing, they received an answering shout
aud were directed to where he was, bu, found
that they wound require assistance to re-
lieve him, which they obtained at store at
the distance Of three-fourths of a mile. A
dozen men then started and broke path to
where Mr.. G. was, by each taking the lead
alternately and breaking down the snow
When reached he was still alive, but expired
before the party reached the store on their
return, from cold and the exhaustion conse-
quent upon the labors of the day Mr.
Corey was formerly resident of Sylvania,
in this county, and was twenty-five years of
age at the time Of his DEATH Toledo Rep.

A LONG PARsNIP-PRoFrTABLE FARMING
We have in our office parsnip, raised on
the farm of G. S. Breed, about three miles
from the city, on the Sulphur Springs road,
which is thirty-six and half inches in
length; also carrot, raised on the same
farm, seventeen and half inches in circum-
ference.
Mr.. Breed has less than twenty-five acres
under cultivation, (Which he thinks was
about half tilled,) and his net profits during
the past year exceed 81 900. He promises
us statementgivin the particulars. While
such results can be accomplished in a season
like the last, let no man complain of the
difficulty of making living at farming 1t
is proper to say that Mr.. Breeds ideas of
good farming differ very much from those of
many who follow the business. We shall
be much pleased to lay his statement before
our readers Toledo Rep.

The RIGHTS oF SCHooLNASTERs AND
PARENTs.-A case of considerable inter-
est was tried before Justice Ladd, of
Cambridge, on Saturday. A citizen of
Newton was complained offor an assault
upon the master Of a school at that place.
1t appeared that the master was in the
habit, as is now the general custom, OF
keeping the child of the defendant, with
otherscholars, after school hours, to learn
her lessons which had been imperfectlv
recited during school hours. The parent
believing that the detention was illegal.
went to the school house and demanded
his child. This was after regular school
hours. The master said the child should
60 as soon as she lad recited her lesson.
The parent attempted to enter the school
room to take his child, but his entrance
was resisted by the master, ald the as
sault upon the master was the result.
The Court ruled that the keeping Of a
child until the lessons Of the day had been
perfected was legal; that the parent in at
tempting to enter the school room, in op-
position to the will of the master, was in
the wrong; tnat child placed at school
by the parent is under the control of the
master, until regularly dismissed; and
that parent cannot withdraw the child
from school during the day against the
masters will, except through the inter
Vention of al officer and the school COM
mittee. The defendant was fined $50
and costS.-BastOn Traveller.
