School Excursion on Saturday Last.

More than one thousand persons
mostly scholars of the various schools
went out to Bristol on the cars on Sat
urday last. The Mayor and Common
Council of the city, the Board of Edu.
cation, and large number of the friends
OF our schools accompanied the scholars
on the excursion. The presence of our
city authorities on the occasion, evinc-
ed very gratifying interest on their
part in behalf of our schools. The ex-
ercises at Bristol were diversified, so as
to render them pleasing to the children.
Short addresses were made by Rev.
Mr.. Smith, Rev. Mr.. Roche, Rev. Mr..
Deming. and G. Briggs of this city, and
Mr.. Kellogg and Mr. Roberts, of Bris-
tol. Declarations were also delivered
on the platform, by scholars of the Ke.
nosha High School The school choir.
under the lead of Mr. Stone, sang num-
Der of excellent pieces.
The scholars and friends of education
arc especially under obligation to the
members of Phelps Band (Messrs.
Phelps, Merehouse, English, Wait and
Emmons,) for generously volunteering
their services for the occasion. Their
music added essentially to the pleasure
Of all present The day passed off very
agreeably, and there seemed to be a
general sentiment that days of this char
lcter, should be set apart more frequent
y for the benefit of the schools. By an
Informal consultation between citizens
'fthis city and citizens of the country,
'n Saturday last; it was concluded to
orlng all the schools i'll the County to-
5ether, as far as practicable, at some
suitable place next year. 1t is hoped
5he plan will be successful.
Much credit is due Mr.. Prescott SUI
perintendeut of the Railroad, and the
other officers connected with it, for the
careful and well arranged accommoda-
lions of the cars; thus far, during some
half-dozen excursions, in which large
crowds have participated, not the Sigh
test accident has occurred.

An IMPosToR.--A German or Swede,
calling himself Gutenberg, has recently
been endeavoring to raise money in this
city by representing himself as Swe-
dish editor, who was on board the steam
er Pennsylvania recently burned on the
Mississippi, lost everything he had, and
was now seeking to reach brother who
resides in Minnesota. He awakened
the sympathy of several of our citizens
by his story, and had collected some
Dney, when he was recognized as a
lats resident of Kenosha. 1t seems he
went by the name of DIR. Koch in that
city, and has resided there for the past
year, and was there when the Pennsyl-
vania was burnt. He was committed to
jail here, and the money he had collec-
ted taken from him and returned to the
donors. Subsequently, however, he was
set at liberty, there being no law a.
gainst obtaining money on false pre-
fences, for charitable purposes, in this
State. .su. =. ..t- 49,
He will very likely endeavor to prac-
tice some similar imposition elsewhere,
and the public would do we'll to look
out for him. -1Kdzison Journal,

FOR the Tribune & Telegraph.

A number of men and boys of all ages
and sizes have been in the habit through
out the summer thus far of undressing
and bathing in the harbor from one to
three hours before night and frequently
exposing their persons in the most
shameless manner for an hour at time.
to the inhabitants of all the dwellings
fronting on the harbor and to the pass
ers over the main Street Bridge. The
attention of the City Marshall and the
other city officers has been called to it
several times without effect, and write
this for publication in your paper for
the purpose of bringing the matter to
the notice of the Mayor and Aldermen,
trusting that their regard for public de-
cency may induce them to take some
action to abate the misdemeanor.

PORTABLE FENCE.-There have been
invented at various times several kinds
OF portable fence, but none has fallen
under our observation so we'll calculated
to answer the object designed, as a spe-
cimen now in this city, the patent OF
which is owned by our fellow citizen,
Mr.. W H Noble, Esq. This fence has the
merit of being in every respect substan,
tial; it is cheaper than the common post
and board fence, and possesses other
advantages over our ordinary board
fence. AT all events, we can recon-
mend it to the inspection Of farmers. o

- 1t appears from the proceedings
Of the Common Council, that the money
accounts of our worthy city Marshal are
not altogether satisfactory. It is hardly
supposable case that SO important a
dignitary as the Marshal of our goodly
city, should thrust any funds into his
breeches pocket to which he was not
clearly entitled. The reputation of the
city is in measure at stake in this bu.
siness, and it is ardently hoped that no
hasty imputahons will be cast upon this
functionary. The Marshall has perform,
ed an immense amount of labor during
the past year or two, andwe understand
his friends contemplate, in consideration
OF his eminent services, putting him on
the course of High Sheriff next fall.

drive around the new Race Course, that
has just been completed, in the north
western suburbs of the city. This en-
terprise was started few weeks since
by some of cur active horsemen, and a
subscription for the purpose, Of $4oo or
$500 was soon raised. The work of
grading, dwelling and rolling was soon
commenced, and the consequence is that
as neat one-mile course, as ever was
trotted over in "2.4o time" has been
completed on the prairie adjoining the
city, few rods north of the Burlington
road. We have some fast nags in our
city, and this course, we presume, will
soon acquire a popularity, second to
none in the country. Besides this, it
will furnish at all times a pleasant drive
for those who have the time and incli.
nation to use it.
