COVINGTON NEWS.

ALEGAL QUEsTIoN.-A petition came be-
fore the City Council at their meeting yester-
day, in relation to an affair which may
probably hereafter present sone NICE legal
p01nCS Tor the decision OF the courts. 1t seems
that when the tax levy was declared last
Spring Mr.. Samuel Russell, nonresident,
but large property holder of this city,
profered to the City Treasurer, in payment
of his taxes, city scrip to nearly the full
amount of his tax bill, offering school scrip
and cash for the balance. The Treasurer act
ing under the direction of the Council, de-
cliued to receive scrip to the amount of more
than forty per cent. of the bill, demanding
cash for the balance.
This Mr.. Russell declined to do, and yes
teTday, by a petition through his attorney
reported his original prefer to the Council,
who simply laid it on the table. We pre-
sumo the property will now be advertised
for sale for non. payment of taxes, and thus
bring before the courts the question whether
city has legal right TO refuse to receive
its own scrip in payment of debts due it.
point nearly interesting many of our
Western cities.
THE MILITARY COMPANIES OF CovINaToN.
We are informed that it is in contemplation
among some of the military companies of
this city to cross the river and join the mill
tary of Cincinnati in their parade on the ap-
prOacnlnB rOufkn OF july we trust they
may do SO, and that the Cincinnati boys will
give them such reception as becomes the
friendly feeling now existing between the
sister cities.
The DEMosvILLE SHOOTING AFFAR.-Dr.
B. F. Cummings, who shot Enos Mullins at
Demosville, in a political quarrel last week,
was examined day before yesterday on a
charge of manslaughter, and held to bail in
the sum of $1,000 to take his trial at the next
term of the Circuit Court.
GONE TO FRANKFoRT.-Sheriff Roberts
started yesterday for Frankfort, having in
charge three prisoners sentenced to the peni-
tentiary at the late term of Court. Their
names were Frank Peake, John P. Walker
and Albert HURT.

ness transacted was chiefly of q private
nature and of no general interest.

Daily Produce Market.

THURSDAY EVENING, June 81
FL0UR-The news from New York un-
settled the market, and the tendency of
prices was downward; buyers withdrew and
there was nothing of consequence done:
super6ne could have been bought at 81 l5,
and extra at "a 40@4 30. We must under
the circumstances, quote prices nearly nomi-
nal.

ket steady: sales of 600 brls. at l215@l25sc.,
the latter rate for wagon.
PROVISIONS-A continued dull market
and not enough doing to establish quo tations.
Mess Pork $l3 50@l3 70; Bacon AZ, 61< and
INC, and bulk Meat 32%, 81 and 6Nc. Lard
is nominal at Sc. for tierce; keg is held at
SIC. but not salable at even SIC.

fair at full prices: sales of 40 hhds. Sugar
at 615@7c., and l26 bags Coffee at l4lc.
Molasses dull at 30@32c.
WHEAT-The market is dull and heavy,
and prices declined &c. per BUSH, closing

red, and 81 for prime white the sales re-
ported were 100 bush. prime red at 90c., on
the landingi 100 bush. good white at 97c.;

Closing Of the Public Schools.

The Public Schools closed yesterday, and,
judging from the proficiency exhibited by
the pupils AT the late examinations, we think
that as mnnh. at least. has been accomplished
as during any previous year. The pupFls OF
all the schools, and of all grades, have evil
IDENTIFY taken deep interest in their studies,
and the teachers, in return, have manifested
an equal degree of solicitudc for the ad-
vancement of those under their charge.
1t would be unadvisable for us to indi-
vidualize, as to do 30 might be construed as
derogatory to those not specifically mem
toned.
The retirement of l. J. Allen, Esq., who
has so ably and efficiently discharged the
duties of Superintendent for several years, is
matter of sincere regret as it will be diff
cult to find a man who will fill his place
with as much real ability as he has exhib.
tied.
TO. 0'Kane, who retires from the Princi-
palship of the Third intermediate School,
was presented, yesterday, with a handsome
set of silver plate, by his pupils-a merited
testimonial.
The following are the programmes of the
two High Schools

To he Editors Of de Daily Press.
The claim set 70. tn by the natives of Vir-
ginis, and other Southern States, of greater
purity and superiority of blood over that Of
The natives of the North must be admitted to
be strictly legitimate, and altogether proper,
especially when we consider the purity of
the springs and fountains from which this
blood flows.
BY q reference to the history OF those
States, we shall learn that a considerable
proportion of their early male population
consisted of the thieves pickpockets, and
other vagabonds, who had been banfshed
from England for their crimes and misde-
meanors, and sent to those colonies as to
another Botany Bay, for their country's
good" We shall learn, further, that another
portion (the female) was sent out by the Vir-
wives, at the established price of from one
hundred to one hundred and fifty pounds of
leaf tobacco for each wife, warranted sound,
healthy, and virgin.
Now, as we all know that the pure, high
born, and noble maidens would be the first
to be selected, and the most likely to volun-
teer to be transported to a distant colony, to
be trafficed off for tobacco, for the purpose
of becoming the wives of such patriots, we
can readily understand why it is that Ger
tain degree of nobility of blood must neces-
sarily flow from such pure fountains and
can better appreciate the extreme and char
scteristic modesty which prompts the claim.
Most of the old Southern States had the
advantage in their early settlements of being
penal colonies, an advantage never enjoyed
| by the States of the North. Nor could the
North, having no tobacco to offer in ex-
change, enter the wife market with any pros
pect of success in competition with their
more fortunate Southern brethren. These
few circumstances, when properly estimated,
will no doubt satisfactorily account for the
superiority of Southern over Northern blood
C0SM0P0LITE.
"It is asserted by psychologists that the physical
peculiaTties of race, as OF shape color, will
casionally Ieappear In the progeny for great mum
races exempt from such peculiarties. Here we have
evidence that the moral idosy ncrasies and habits
| are equally tenacious and enduring.
