Now comes the most alarming feature of ali
tnls examination. The evidence above given
shows what will be developed II Colonel Page
goes on. Colonel Gray, who has officially aided
the inquiry, will leave Councils on the first of
the new year. To retard tine examination till
then ana overthrow the Committee is the Trus-
ICES ann; IheT sub committee loM not g1ue dny
mCre oooks or papers 10 the inspection OF Colonel
rage. de and Colonel Gray went 10 the Ges
Uince on Tuesday last TO meet the Trustees, and
iney were not about. Mr.. Riley, cashier said
lney would not be there. The two Select Coun.
cilmen waited halt an hour. and Mr.. Graetf
came In at bad moment, for he was cornered.
DE declined to produce any papers, because his
colleagues were not there.
Yesterday, by second appointment Colonel
Gray went to the Office. Colonel PAGE, who had
just left, had been told that no Truetees would
be there. The excuse then was that Chief
Clerk Brown has charge OF all the records, and
Mr.. Brown was away paying the men. The
Committee of the Trustees also told Colonel
Page that no meeting can be held until week
after next. Then, of course, there will be no
meeting either. They won't 90 on unless Colonel
Page and Colonel Gray are both there Colonel
Gray has for two weeks remained in the CITY,
neglecting important personal business in Ken
lucky, that he could attend at the Gas Office,
and when he attended he was treated as we
have said. The English of it is this, that no
more papers will be shown to Colonel Page or
his colleague, Mr.. Gray. The Truetees don't
want any more stOp-cOck, box, or fire. orick
contracts exposed. Cameron coal might come
next.

A SUBJECT OF IMPoRTANCE.-The pre-
servation Of valuable books and papers IS al
ways OF paramount importance to business men
and Others in the community. OF the various
kinds OF Safes manufactured and now in use
(and their name is legion), but few of them are
possessed of really ire proof qualities. Most
of these are filed with moist mixture, which
is injurious to the contents of the safe mould
ing the books, etc. A Safe, dry at all times as
well as perfectly 6re-proof, is of recent intro
duction comparatively in this country. We
refer our readers to the column advertisement
OF Marvin's Safes in to-day's edition of supple
ment sheet. Their certificates and testimonials
are ample and satisfactory enough to convince
the most incredulous of their entire superiority
over others. Their warehouse is at 72l No. Ches-
nut street (Masonic Hall).

A MODEL SCHOOL EDIFICE.-The cause
of education appears to have received new
impulse, and strong efforts are being made to
bring The school department OF this city up TO
the highest point of efficiency. On the vacant
lot, ninety-ntne ieet long by one hundred and
seventy deep, adjoining the Academy OF Music,
on the south side OF Locust street, above Broad.
is about to be erected large public school
building, on improved principles, according to
the plans of MIR. J. c. Sidney, architect, which
have been likewise adopted by the Controllers
of two other sections, and will probably esta
blish the model for the other school structures
to be built throughout the city.
Instead OF a single building, heretofore gene
yet forming connected whole, whilst each
room has windows on every side to afford
ample light and ventilation.
There will be twenty-five divisions or class
rooms, nine in the first story, nine in the
second, and four in the third The class-rooms
are separated by glass partitions, so arranged
that, II necessary, the rooms on each floor can
be thrown into one. Each classroom has q
separate entrance and stairway, so that all
chance OF crowding or danger in case OF alarm
or accident will be avoided.
The mode of ventilation is also novel fea-
ture. The floors OF each story will have hol-
low space beneath their whole surface, connect
ing with flue four feet in diameter, in the cen
tire OF which a cast-iron smokeplpe will be in
serted. The air in this Aue being warmed by
the radiation from this pipe, a constant draught
will be created. By means of registers in the
floors and ceilings, the air in the rooms will
communicate with this heated chamber, and it
Is calculated that the atmosphere will be
changed entirely every twenty minutes through
out the building.

INDIAN COTTON. perhaps,
more than any other part of the
world, is fitted to supply our markets
with an abundant, good and cheap
supply of cotton. Hitherto the
quantity of this important staple that
has found its way to Liverpool and
other principal ports has disappoint-
ed the anticipation of those best
acquainted with its immense re-
sources and capabilities; but when
We consider the difficulties which had
and are still to be surmounted, we
have reason to congratulate ourselves
that so much has been accomplished.
A glance at the list Of countries con-
tributing cotton will show that very
considerable increase has taken place
In the quantity now imported from
our Eastern Empire; and here we
must, in justice, remark that this
result is, in great measure, if not
altogether, attributed to the persist
ent exertions the Cotton Supply As
sociation Of Manchester have put
forth to overcome the prejudices and
natural conservatism Of the native
mind, and to stimulate both the large
and small proprietors to the cultiva-
ton of the cotton plant wherever it
could be grown with success. It has
now been demonstrated satisfactorily
that the land owners of India will
as elsewhere, give up the culture of
their accustomed crops where they
find it profitable to do so, and If
only the force of the soil is seconded
by the use Of modern agricultural,
cleansing and pressing machinery,
and the means of transport i'm
proved, we may confidently look to
our possessions in the East ultimate
ly standing at the head OF the list as
source of supply.
In all these respects, however,
India labors under very serious dis
advantages. The culture of the
plant Is carried on in the most pri-
mitive manner, and with implements
OF the toughest and most antiquate.l
character; the product is imperfectly
cleaned; frequently no attempt what
ever is made to subject it to effective
and adequate pressure, and the
means of transport and intercommu-
nication are positively disgraceful.
If we add to these drawbacks the
fact that the article at present growth
is mostly of.inferior quality, simply
because it is raised from inferior seed,
we have a state of things presented
deserving Of the attention not merely
OF the mercantile community, bnt
also of the Government.
