About the Coolest Yet.

We have seen some icy operations in our
day, but we don't remember just now OF a cool
err proposition than one we received the other
day from one j. R. Shipherd of Chicago, who
claims to be the manager ola Bureau of Tel
egraphic News" He proposes to furnish us
with weekly advertisement of new publlca-
lions, which he says he will receive from the
publishers, for the notice, which will enable
him to furnish it to US at the remarkably low
price of one dollar per week. With all respect
for the Manager of the Bureau of Telegraphic
News" and correspondence, we must decline
his favor. We think we do all we can afford
to. when we puff books that we get ourselves.
Perhaps Mr.. Shipherd is in the book trade and
resorts to this method of laying in stock of
all the new publications, and getting fair pay
for the trouble of advertising at the same
time Mr.. Shipherd would make a ia ir thing
Of it if he could only make it work. For in
stance, if he could get say 100 country editors
to pay him 81, each per week for his book ia
BILE, or puff of new books that would be 500
cash. Then if all the publishers would send
in their books say hundred volumes at least
per week. worth on an average 81 per volume.
This, to say nothing of the private and personal
arrangements he might make with rival pub
fishing houses, would be a very snug little
business. The originator of this pretty little
scheme begs us to believe that this is not
wit h us, a mere bargain and SALE" We can
generously believe that. The only party sold
in the operation would be the poor editor, who
would do all the work and pay good round
price for the privilege.

Chicago Market.

THE GENITAL SYsrEM.-The Chamber of
Commerce on Saturday adopted resolution
agreeing to transact all business after the
first day of March next, according to the
new GENITAL system of weights and measures.
The Boards of Trade of nearly every other
city of Importance in the Union has made
similar agreement. In few years the
word ''bushel' will become entirely obso-
Lutte. This system will be great improve
ment on the present one. Instead of sell
ing grain by the bushel,-which varies from
thirty to sixty pounds, according to the
kind of grain,-it IS sold by the GENITAL or
hundred pounds. By the present system,
the standard varies in different states +; by
the Genital system it will be uniform-an ad-
vantage of no small Importance. -MjJDau-
kee Sentinel.
What says the Kenosha Chamber of Com
merce to this new innovation. Is it to be
adopted If so, the ukase ought to go forth
at once that the people may know what to
depend upon. If the good old bushel peck,
&C., is to be banished entirely, let US have
time at least to bid it final adieu.

The County officers.

The County officers elected last fall took
possession of their several offices and assumed
their duties on Monday last. The change is
nearly complete, the Clerk of the Court and
District Attorney being the only relics Of the
past, left in office. Sheriff Healey has taken
up his residence at the scene of his labors for
the next two years. in the Sheriff's quarters in
the Court House building.
We understand that Sheriff Healey has ap-
pointed our old friend A. N. Crotsenburgh,

good selection, and one that will be approved
by the people.
The following is the list of County Officers,

In reference to the financial condition of Ke-
nosha county. We published week before last
the annual statement of the late Clerk of the
Board of Supervisors but we can get no inform
alton from that. We are given the receipts
and expenditures and we notice that the latter
are considerably in excess of the former Was
there any balance in the Treasury at the COM
mencement of the year? if so, how much and
what became of it? Or, there defcien-
Icy? Is there any balance in the treasury at
the commencement of this year, or is the coun-
ty in debt for current expenses? Was there
any provision made for the expenses of the
coming year, if so what amount of tax was
levied? What is the assessed valuation of the
real and personal estate of the county upon
which the tax is levied? ALI these are items

to expect in the only report on the condition
of the county finances, and the action of the

The Weather.

For week or two past the weather has been
for the most part, not very cold, but clear and
pleasant. The roads are worn nearly smooth,
and wheeling has been excellent. Almost ev-
cry day has witnessed wonderful activity
upon our streets. Wood and Hay have come
in literally, and the price of wood has actual
ly fallen off a few cents, under the influence
of an abundant supply. We have heard of a
number of loads being sold at Sc, so per load.
We tried to count the number of teams on the
streets the other day and after getting I'D
among the hundreds We got tired and gave it
up.

and prove by their patronage, that they can
appreciate the literary merit of a course of
Lectures, and fully sustain those who have
taken the first steps in this enterprise. Let
all who can, purchase Tickets to the course.
Enough course tickets should be sold to
cover the'ordinary expenses, and single lecture
tickets would cover the incidentals.

ta-It is now alleged that the Fenian
sCentral Organize",' Stephens, instead OF
having gone to Europe to fulfil his promise
that 1.-THE blow would be struck before
New Years, is still in New York. A con-
vention of Fenians in that city,on Saturday,
declared him an exploded humbug," and
accused him of receiving and appropriating
to his own use $4,000 of the Fenian funds
since his arrival in this country, instead of
buying and sending arms to Ireland He
has resigned, because, as he says, Fenian-
ism is too weak to cope with England, and
General Gleason has been appointed in his
place. 1t now looks very much as if the
charge made some time ago, that Stephens
was nothing more nor less than British
SPY, was correct.
