The PUBLIC SCHOoLs.-Ths long vacation
which the young people Of Rock Island have
enjoyed is drawing to q close, and soon
again they will be pursuing their studies
and going through the ordinary routine OIL
school life. Doubles many OF the scholars
themselves would be better pleased to have
their vacation prolonged indefinitely, but
there are many parents in the city
who think that the summer va
cation of four months is too long,
and would prefer to have their children in
school q portion of the time. Nearly all the
arrangements for teachers, &C., have been
perfected, ready for the commencement, on
the second Of September. The examina-
ton OF applicants for the positions of teach
ers now vacant was concluded on Wednes-
day, the 10th. There were thirteen applica.
tions. The names Of those selected to fill
vacancies are ViletiS S. Field, Celia Briggs,
Emily W. Stanley, Bella F. Cook, and Maud
u Vennsy. The frat four named are all of
Rock Island, and are we'll known in the city.
Miss Tsnney formerly lived in this city and
mas many friends here. She graduated a
70" weeks since, at Knox College, Gales
burg, with high honors, as noticed in TIM

Rock Island county Republicans have deter.
mined 10 run John B. Hawlsy for Congress; but
combination Is forming in Bureau and Henry

-DarenPorf Democrat.
There Is a rumor OF that kind, but we
hardly think the combination will amour,
TO anything. 1t ia true that Bureau and
Henry could control the nomination should
they combine, but We rather think the Haw
ley d Robinson Ferry Clique have 20, the
Bureau GRANTEES in their pocket. The APP
Portionment of votes in their Convention is
as follows Rock Island 7, Henry IL Bu-
rsAu 10, Lee 8, Putnam 2, total 80. Ac-
cording to this it requires 20 votes to con.
troll the convention. Henry and Bureau
have q. Henry, Lee and Putnam 20. 1t will
thus be seen that Henry with either Bureau
or Lee and Putnam can control the convsn
ton. But we think Hawley, Robinson d
Co., own the Lee and Bureau delegates and
can snap their fingers at any combination
to overthrow their scheme to nominate
Hswlsy.

ALL The DECENCY.-In Cambridge the
GRANTEES threw potatoes at the Liberal

they gathered around in front of Morey q
drug store, and at the end of the horse rail-

at people who were going to the Greeley
meeting. They even boosted that they
would SO intimidate the Liberal Republi-
cans tina. they would not dare to 20 to the
meeting. These things are done by the par
