THURSDAY, DEG. Is, 1859.
City Deb. Meeting.

A meeting was held at the Court House
on Tuesday evening to take into consider
alton the City Indebtedness and wha
could be done in relation to it. Witt
few exceptions the meeting was conduct
ed with much propriety. There was
general agreement in two important res
poets. 1st The law holds the city res
ponsible for the payment of the whole
debt End. The people are not able to
pay the debt. There was also general
agreement in favor of making an effort to
compromise the debt, but there were diff
ferent opinions expressed as to the best
plan to effect compromise. Generally
good feeling prevailed and the meeting
adjourned to meet again On Friday eve.
ming for further deliberation and &C
ton.
There is heavy debt against the city, q
part of which is in judgments. A num-
Der of mandamuses have been served
on the City. Council, commanding the
leVying of q tax to pay the judgments,
and the Council has obeyed the commands.
Probably an injunction will for time
delay the collection of the taxes, but it
will only be for time. The authority
and commands of the U. S. Courts will
ultimately have to be respected and obey
ed. So the best course in our opinion, is
to effect . compromise upon the best terms
that can be obtained. And according to
opinions given at the meeting the whole
debt can be compromised on fair terms.
Another good aspect of the whole matter
is, that the whole debt is not so large as
we and many others had supposed. AL
together the circumstances and times are
not unfayorable for compromise. And
we would say to every one who intends to
remain in the city and every one who in
tends to leave It, give your influence and
aid to bring about compromise and to
free the city from Indebtedness.

The Develop ement of Cereals

Mr.. f. T. Hallet read before the
British Association paper Son the
Law ofthe Development Of Cereals. =
From continued observations and
experiments, extended over nearly
twenty years, Mr.. Hallett said he had
arrived at the following conclusions i:
/. Every fully developed plant,
whether Of wheat, oats, or barley,
presents an ear superior in produc-
tive power to any Of the rest of that
plant 2 Every such plant con-
tains one grain which upon trial,
proves more productive than any
other. 3. The best grain in a civ
en- plant is found in the best ear.
4. The superior vigor of this grain
is transmissible in different degrees
to It's progeny. 5. BY repeat
ed careful selection the superiority
is accumulated. 6. The improves
ment, which is at first rapid, grad
ually, after long series of years,
is diminished in amount, and event
ually so far arrested that, practically
speaking, limit to improvement in
the desired quality is reached. Z.
By still continuing to select, the I'M
provement is maintained and practi-
cally fixed type is the result.

land charged Richardson with too much

cause of the separation. One night when
Richardson was accom- panying Mrs
Mcfarland from the theatre where she
s.qd heeet acting Mcfarland shot at Rich
ardson twice infictjng serious but not
fatal wound Mrs Mcfarland obtained
o divorce in the State of Indiana last Oc-
tober and took the name of Mrs Sage.
Previous to, her obtaining the divorce,
Richardson, feeling that Mrs. Mcfarland
might be unjustly censured on his account,
announced through the press his intention
to marry her whenever she obtained
divorce absolving her from her marriage
obligations to Mcfarland. Mcfarland
shot Richardson in the Tribune offic about a
week previous to the death of Richardson,
and the shooting by Mcfarland was the
