Hiss Catherine E. Deecher,' who, with
Mrs. Stowe, has just published a house,
keepers manual, entitled the ss4American
Woman's Home" " writes an appealing letter
to "the honorable conductors Of the pub
Lie press" describing certain attacks on the
Beecher family which have passed current
at times, and complains TINT the publica-
ton of this book has been mnde the occa-
Eion Of d fresh "attack," certain pnpers
having ~ickedlY reported that Mrs. Beecher
Stowe is no housekeeper. After ingeniously
intervening in her complaint two 6rst-class
advertising notices OF the book in question,
1ae concludes by inviting the conductors

IN their columns, by way Of redress for the

CITY TIME.

The communication from, Professor SAT.
ford, presented to The Council last evening,
relative to city time, places the subject in
avery a'mple light. It Is proposed that the
Astronomical Society Of this city,
through its corps Of astronomers
at the = Dearborn Observatory, shall
furnish correct time to the clock
in the1 Court House, and, by means OF
electric connection, cause the hours to be
struck on the bell at the right instant, ill.,
stead Of allowing variation Of from one
to many minutes, which has hitherto been
the case. When it is considered that, in
addition to guaranteed correctness, inyal-
uable to business men, O saving Of eight
hundred dollars per year will be mado on
the salaries Of the watohmen," nopther
is needed in favor Of the proposed
change.
The reform viii, however, neceasitate the
outlay Of little money at first, to make the
:equired te1egraphic communication, aud put
the batteries in order, Whether this shall
10 provided for by En- appropriation, OF by
is to be determined. Wehave
10 doubt that in the latter case the required
'unds could be raised within few hours,
There are few of our leading citizens who
Tonld not willingly give few dollars to-
Yards securing that. much needed business
egulato1-correct city time.

It is gratifying indication that, az the
Odord-Haryard rnce draws near. tho oa.ly
criticisms and opinions which were haueh-
tily confident Of the sucess Of the Oxford
boys, have greatly modified, or altogether
changed their tone. Tho correspondent of
the New York Tribune, who is little more
Of an Englishman than any they make in
England, thinks the Harvard boys can do
no rowing without borrowing the Oxford
stroke and training under an English
oaraman. The recent cable despatch,
however, show that the London journals
generally set down the race as even, and
some admit the chances may be in
favor Of the Americana Whatever the re-
suit may be, the great international contest
may be expected to inaugurate universal
rowing furor. Already frequent matches
are reported in various parts OF the United
States, Tho race will decide which stroke
is the style, and the successful one will
have abundance Of lmitators. Meanwhile
It is remarkable that, fronting on the finest
body Of fresh water in the world for sport
ng purposes, Chicago gives no attention to
;owing. Would it not be an improvement
oa drinking, gambling md billiards?

Andrew Johnson, in his recent speech at
Knoxville, renews the reputation proposi-
ton which he made the subject Of a Presi-
DENTAL message. It is to pay the interest
on the national debt for 1G Is years, and
then apply all the payments Of interest On
account Of the principal andcall il squared.
But why this needleas rigmarole j? What
better is all this than Brick Pome.oy,s plan
OF pnsing nothing and calling it square ?
Hhy will not johnson and Pendleton sit at
the feet of Pomeroy, and study their lesson
til they get it?

The rebels started, and the Copperhead
papers echoed, the cry Of "spocns" and
"thief" against General Butler because he
nade the rebel population ut New Orleans
pay the whole cost Of sustaining his army
and navy while he was in command at New
Orleans, and, according to Mr.. Parton,
turned over balance Of S11,o00,OOo be-
sides to the United States Treasury. Sec1e-
tary Chase remarked that if all our Gen.
erals carried on the war on the aame finnn-
cial principles that Butler did, the country
need not suspend specie payments or issue
legal tenders. It now turns out that his
deceased brother, whom General Butler WIS
repnted to have "helped' to several mill
ions while in New Orleans, a sum which
afterwards dwindled to 800, 900, died IN
solvent. So much for the perseyerIng aud
diversified lying to which an e1-Democrat
may be subjected at the hands Of his fellow
Democrats when he puts them through a
course Of sprouts" which is disaoraaable
