CLOSED AT ,SEyEN.-A day or two
since the Hollingsworth Brothers and
Messrs. Mark & Warren gave notice
that after sera1a-e,el,yvk of each even
ing their houses would not be open
for business. A large number of the
,greeerymen of our city entered into
such an agreement some time since.
We regard this as a good move, as it
will afford the clerks and employees
of the various business houses an OPP
portunity for recreation or the Inn,
prevement. of the mind The exam
pie is a good one, and might be fol-
lowed to a good advantage to that
class of our population, by all our
business men. At present the clerk
has but little time orgreadingi or re-
creation, unless he spends the time
after business, hours that should be
devoted to rest and sleep. Atpres-
ent, in houses that are kept open until
8 O'clock in the evening, from fifteen
to- sixteen hours are, devoted to bust
ness, which is too much by almost
half. That there is reformation
needed in this respect, all viii readily
admit. Those gentlemen have taken
the initiative steps: who Will follow?

TEE vacancies in the board of education
have been filed, as will be seen by the pro-
ceedings published in this paper. We hope
that tue board, in future. will publish the
proceedings of all meetings held, no matter
how unimportant except such portions of the
proceedings as are improper to be published.
By 30 doing, much prejudice against the
schools, the superintendent, and the board
will be allayed and done away with.
Next spring there will be an election Of
two members of the board, in place of Messrs
Sweeney and Mixter, whose terms will then
expire. The torn of Mr.. Mitchell runs an
