Mr.. J. II. McGLoNE, q promising lawyer
who passed his examination for the bar about
year ago, and is said to be sharp as steel bear
trap, has had posters put up about town in
which he calls upon the electors of the Fourth
Assembly District Seventh Ward, to vote
for him at the ensuing election as representative
Of Ire district in the State Legislature. Mr..
McGLoSg has already Joined the hosts Of Tam
many. and displays the deep regard for all the
virtues which he has imbibed from that pure
source in his prescn. address to the people.
Among other things, he promises to urge with
all his respondent abilities, honesty and economy
in public officials; to oppose the giving Of State
aid to monopolies aud TO encourage the foster
ing of the sciences and arts. lie concludes with
these words:
1.-THE present school system must be blo,ted out.
II is mockery TO education. Oel to our religion,
and hi.hy impious and pernicious in it, influence
upon the minds OF the children OF our city; these
being my views, and II upon such platform, nom
inaon and election believe me, citizens my great
and only desires, like my worthy predecessors,
shall be to represent Won honestly. faithfully and
efficiently. and by a cooperation with your oistin-
gushed Senator and patriotic Governor to dis
charge the duties Of my position;
Firstly, to tire citizens OF my district:
"Secon dly, to tile people oi the State at large;
"rIirdly, to my God, my conscience aud my
country ,.,,. ,.,,. o,
the legislative ais shall make my most moral CON
stituent blush for their representative"
Mr. McGLoSE's determination to blot out the
common school system is certainly very common
dable, although some blockheads may say that II
be lad attended one Of the common schools, the
anomalies of grammar aud rhetoric which adorn
the above passage might have been avoided.
We have only to add in relation to Mr.. Nc
CLOSE, that he is not citizen of the Juited
States.

The Trimming Tribune, which has de-
Tended the Cuban cmancipationists until their
defence had become dangerous TO the recreant
Republican leaders, suddenly attacks the Cuban
Junta in this city for the loss Of a part of the
cargo Of the G. d. Upton.
The gentlemen composing the Junta are pa
triots and we have doubt feel battered, because
the charge proves that no real accusation can be
brought against them or their cause. The alb
surdity of attempting to make them responsible
for the pursuit Of the Upton by Spanish American
gunboats, or for the loss of steam launch on
a dark night, at an unknown point some thousand
miles distant, is refreshing in this hot weather.

OF a lot Of clothing and other effects. Subse-
queptly, however, party of1eo Of the Upton's
passengers came upon them, end the spaniards
were obliged to retire to their gunboat. Two
days afterward the gunboats Eco and Yumuri APP
peared, captured three deserters, from whom they
learned tie whereabouts of portion of the cargo
which had been hidden, took possession of it, and
shot the informers. Tie Spaniards pretend to
have captured LOO muskets aud a quantity Of
other arms and ammunition. There is no question
that the remainder of the passengers by the
UPTON got inland, with probably as many arms
and as much ammunition as the party could carry.

A well known railroad man and cx-goyern-
or, few days since was enjoying quiet
shave in one of the barber shops in this city,
intending to leave in the next train that was
then about due. The locomotive whistle
sounded when the operation was about half
through, and person entering the shop in
formed the gentleman that the train had just
started from the depot. With hat and carpet
bag in hand, and a weeks growth of beard on
one side of his face, the venerable and re-
spected ex-governor started upon Il run for
the receding train. His situation was obser
we'd by the conductor, and although time, tide
and railroad trains generally wait for no man,
the engine was reversed and the half shaved
individual taken on board, where he was the
observed of all observers.

At a meeting of the Directors of the village
schools, held on Monday, Rev. c. f. Penney
announced that by reason of the additional
burdens imposed upon him as member Of the
school committee, and other engagements, he
should be unable to serve longer as one of the
Directors. The board was then organized by
the choice of Rev. Dr. Jos. Kicker as chair
man, and the following resolution adopted;
Rcsolred, That in view of the faithful and
conscientious manner in which the Rev. Mr.
Penney has uniformly discharged the duties
dcvOlving upon him member OF the board
of Directors for the last seven years, and of
the harmony and unanimity which have al
ways characterized the deliberations of the
present board, we accept his resignation with
deep regret.
Subsequently Rev. DIR. j. F. Bingham was
elected to fill the vacancy occasioncd by the
resignation of Mr. Penney. Mr.. G.. A. Robert
son was elected principal of the grammar
school, and all the other teachers were re-
elected to their respective situations, except
that Misses Wheclerand Church will exchange
places. The election of Mr.. Robertson to the
grammar school is no reflection upon the eff
fcency of Mr. Whitney, who has acquitted
himself with much credit and given entire
satisfaction during the short period he has had
charge of the school, but in view of the fact
that both grammar schools will be reunited
under the charge of one principal as soon as
the new school house is ready for occupation,
it was thought desirable to have teacher of
larger experience than Mr.. Whitney
The grammar school scholars who have re-
Gently been attending the Kendall street
school, will at once be transferred to Mr..
Robertsons school. BY vote of the Directors
no scholars in the district, not even those in
the primary schools will be excused before
the regular daily session or sessions of the
school, unless upon the written request of
their parents. The school year will be divided
into four terms as follows; The summer term
will commence April 18th, and continue ten
weeks, closing July %. The second term
will commence August Goth. and continue
eight weeks. closing Oct. ODD. The third
term will commence Oct. 3lst and continue
eight weeks, closing Dec. 18th. The last term
will commence Jan. ID, ISL, and continue
ten weeks, closing March llth.

Mr. John Hersom of this city was almost
instantly killed yesterday morning about nine
o'clock. by being crushed between the plat
form at the freight depot in this city and a
moving freight train. For the purposes of
convenience in loading and unloading freight,
the platform of the freight depot is built about
breast high, and in some places curves within
a few inches of the train. 1t seems that Mr..
uersom was crossing from Water street by
way of little avenue, and attempted to pass
between the platform and the track. Just at
this time the morning freight came along and
jammed Mr.. III. within the narrow space, roll
ling him little distance before his situation
was discovered and the train stopped. The
men on the train saw him just before the car
struck him. He was standing perfectly still,
close against the platform, apparently think
ing that the train, which was moving very
slowly, would clear him as it passed along.
A groan escaped him on being struck, and as
one of the railroad men took him from the
track Immediately after the accident, he
breathed twice and expired. He was taken
to his house and DR.. w. S. Hill called, who
found that all his ribs were crushed and one
of his arms broken. VIM. ii. Libby, Esq,
Coroner, immediately summoned jury of
