CIVIL RIGHrs CASE IN BuFPALo-For a
time past degree of excitement has been oc-
casioned in some of the public schools on ae.
count Of the fact tnat a number of colored
children had insisted upon attending, and re-
mained despite the efforts of the teachers to
compel them to leave. t
Recently, & petition by colored people, ask
ing permission to send their children to other
schools than that set apart for them, was re-
ferred to the Common Council Committee on
Schools; the Committee repor' ed that the
Councilhad NO authority to grant the permis-
sion asked, and the report was adopted.
Notwithstanding this action, the parents OF
the children continued to send them to the
schools and yesterday Superintendent Fosdick
went to Districts Nos. II and u and ordered
the colored Children to leave. This they re-
fused to do, when they were elected. This
morning the colored children in No. 81 were
also elected by the Superintendent.
It Is understood that Mr.. Fosdick has
adopted this course in pursuance of the action
Of the Council, and 1t is rumored that the
parties considering themselves aegTieved
threatened TO have him arrested and arraigned
before the United States Court under the Olvil
Rights Bill. The school set apart for eolored
children, on Vine street, will accom- paodate 200,
we are told, though the average daily attend
ance is only about forty -fve.-Bufalo CONNER

IL About one year ago, man named Bry-
an Kosbrook. figured extensively in Chicago
as q gilt enterprise man. He sold one thousand
tickets out Of one million which he ad dvertis- q,
and then had the drawing. but took good care
that not single number on the tickets sold
was put in to the wheel. The result was that
he drew all the prizes. He then went to Colo
Iado, and letter has been received stating

poison to his two children and heavy dose
of chloroform TO himself. The children died
but unfortunately the wretch recovered.

Crops of the United States.

The Department OF Agriculture has Just is-
sued Its report for August and September,
condition Of the crops as compared with those
OF 1865. The tables for september pertain
chiefly 10 the state Of the fall crops as far as
heard from.
Vheat-From the August returns i. appears
that there is uniform reduction in the gem
eral averages of wheat as compared with the
July figures, and the September estimates,
when harvested, as compared with the crops
OF 1864, drop the figures somewhat lower in q
number Of the States, attributable, to q censid.
eIable extent, to bad weather while harvest
ing. as well as to the fact that in some sections
the grain was found to be shriyeled, and
thrashed out less to the acre than was antic-
ipated. The leading wheat-growing States
report the following per centaee OF increase at
diana, 50; Michigan, 80; Wisconsin. IL; Min
nesota, IS; Illinois, Is: Iowa, 90; Missouri, 20;
Kentucky, "a; West Virginia, 90; Virginia, so;
Tennessee, 40; Georgia, so; Arkansas, Is; New
and Texas show falling OF from last year,
when the crops in those States wsre very large.
The returns due October 1st will enable the
department to estimate with greater degree
OF accuracy the amount OF this great crop for
the curren. year.
Corn.-The prospect for a csrn crop con-
tlnues to improve, and if frost holds off the
general crop may be a fair one. While a num-
Der OF the States return low estimates, others,
particularly the southern States, show q
marked increase over The yield OF last year.
Georgia promises double her crop Of 1866; AL
ALBANIA reports an increase Of IS per cent; Mis-
sissippi so; Tennessee 81: Louisiana 40; South
Carolina 5a, and Arkansas 100 Ohio falls off
80 per cent from crops OF last year, estimated
from the condition OF the crop on the 1st Of
September; Indiana II; Illinois IA; Kentucky
%; West Virginia Is, and Virginia 10. s-ss7g
Cotton.-The cotton crop promised we'll mp
to the 1st instant, when worms were making
their appearance, and mi uch apprehension was
then felt in various sections for the safety Of
the crop. Under the head Of +" Extracts from
Correspondence we give notes from the sew

FEMALE CLERKs.-The editor of the ALBANY
Knickerbocker is in Europe, and sends the
following account of the general employment
Of females:
The women, by the way, do nearly all the
trading in Ireland. AT our hotel q woman
shows you to your room you pay your bill to
woman, and you are politely bowed out of
the hotel by the housekeeper. 1t is rare to find
a retail store in Cork " here female is not seen
behind the counter. We are told that the same
thing prevails throughout all the British
provinces. The reason given for employing
them Is that their follies are not only less nu-
merous, but much lower priced. Females
may sport fifty dollar mantles, but they never
60 en- fifty dollar "busts." Females never
spend whole weeks wages on billiard
tables. Girls never "put the party through"
kick up a row. and get dragged to the station
house. Fast horses they also avoid, and rou.
le,te tables and game cocks Who ever sa " a
female hanging round gambling table, or
betting her last FIVE dollars that she can tell
where the I" little Joker" is! Who ever saw q
female clerk. after the store was shut, rambling
up Broadway, 4" raising thunder and break
ing things! Who ever saw respectable girl
knocking over dry goods boxes and standing
M. P.'s" on their heads! No one; and yet
respectable young men do these things nightly
When was female clerk ever arrested for hav.
ing "suspicious character locked up in the
store with her after midnight7 In view Of all
these facts, is 1t any wonder hat the merchants
on this side run to female clerks
