Steam and the electric telegraph bring us into
close intercourse with the remotest quarters
of the globe. San Francisco and Melbourne
thus become near neighbors, and it is not sur
prising that Australia and California assimi-
late in their social and political character.
We have ever been proud Of our system of
free public schools, in which every child
has the opportunity for acquiring the
rudiments of sound practical education, and
it is natural we should be gratifed to learn
that the lawmakers Of that far-off British
colony propose to adopt our educational plan,
with the improvement of making school at
tendance compulsory. No more solid foun-
dation can be laid for the prosperity and sta
bility Of community than in the general
education of its individuals. That nation
which pays generously for schools has little
need OF expenditure for jails and pauper re-
lief Australia, in transplanting to her virgin
soil the American common schools is making
better use of her gold than she could in
fortresses or armamcnts. She has already

British Emigration TO Paraguay.

The British Emigration Board in London
cautions British subjects against being de.
luded into seeking homes in Paraguay. At
tention is called to the exhausted and un-
settled condition of that country in conse-
quence of its late war with Brazil and tho
allies. and to the fact Of its tropical climate,
which units it for the residence Of people,
accustomed to the bracing mir and low tenn.
perature Of England or Ireland. Lack Of
access to good markets for products, differ
ences Of language and customs, are also al
luded to as affording reasons why me Dfitish
laborer would not improve his Condition by
settling in tropical South America. He is
told, and truly, that he would do far better in
one of the British colonies The official

Cosr OF METROPOLITAN RAILROADS. The
success of the London railroads, notwithstand-
ing their enormous cost, ought to satisfy our
capitalists that similar lines, whether by
viaduct or underground, in New York would
pay. The Metropolitan cost eo22, 2S6 mile,
over $4,5O0,00O: the Chatham and Dover
Metropolitan Extension cost e5OO,O the
North London, G281, $40; the BlackwalI,
e266, 900; and the Greenwich, 92OO,0 900. We
do not know what the estimate is, if any has
been made, for a viaduct or underground rail-
road from one end of Manhattan Island to
the other, but it would hardly cost more q
mile than the Greenwich-that is, 81 ,000, 900,
which is the lowest of any of the London
railroads named Surely there is wealth and
enterprise enough here to give the people Of
New York this most necessary means of rapid
transit

The Postmastc Generals Report.

We are told by our Washington correspond
eral which is to be submitted to Congress will
be full of valuable information and bristling
with recommendations Mr.. Creswell will re-
new his observations on the inadequate CON-
pensation for the railroad service in carrying
the mails. We would rather see some move
ment toward retrenchment, especially as the
railroad companies of the country have already
great privileges and ought to be liberal in pro-
noting the public service. 1t is gratifying to
know the postal money ey-order system is grow
ing in favor and that the amount transmitted
during the last year exceeded that of the year
previous over six millions of dollars. The
amount sent through postal money orders last
year was upwards Of forty-cight millions of
dollars. But what of the boasted telegraph
scheme? Is anything to be done or recon.
mended for placing the telegraph system
under control of the government and to
cheaper and facilitate telegraphic commune
cation among the people? This is one of the
most important and progressive measures now
demanding consideration. We hope this will
be among the 'bristling recommendations of
Mr.. Creswell report.
GAME OF HAzAaD.-It would puzzle any ono
to say which is worst, the game Of hazard at
Homburg, Baden and other places in Ger
many, which the government has resolved to
suppress, or the desperate gambling in stocks
and money in Wall and Broad streets. The
penal code in Germany relating to these gam
bling establishments reads: Whoever shall
make a business of hazard play shall be pun
ishcd with Imprisonment Of from three months
to two years and fine of from one hundred to
two thousand thalers, aud be prohibited from
the exercise of rights as citizen" Cannot
our legislators find some way to prevent the
equally demoralizing and ruinous game Of
hazard in stocks and money here? Far greater
evils result. not only to the victims imme-
dia,ely concerned but to the whole business
community. fr2m STOCK ga@5liag.

millions appeared bagatelle for that splendid
little volcanic naval station but when those
earthquakes and tidal waves came along, which
nearly swept away the island, the King OF
Denmark was whistled off. And so it was that
when General Grant proposed to buy the inn
perial tropical island of st. Domingo, at the
absurdly low figure of a million or so, fears of
earthquakes and hurricanes and tidal waves,
and Of the vomito and of sanguinary war
with those ferocious Africans Of Hayti, and
other tropical terrors, frightened the Senate
from the speculation. Indeed, the purchase
Of Alaska, that boundless and mysterious land
Of ice and snow, and our narrow escape from
st. Thomas that mysterious land Of fire,
changed the American popular idea of annex
alton to popular indifference even in regard to
Cuba and Mexico.
We like the reform bill proposed by the
administration for the abolition Of internal
revenue assessors and the saving thereby of
several millions of money. But is Congress as
far advanced in the idea of abolishing SUPER
fuous Offices as the President? There's the
hitch With the people on his side, how
ever, the President may push forward
without fear. But again, from the special
report which we have published of the
preparation of the comprehensive volumes of
the new census under the direction of Superin-
tendent Walker, we think these volumes, with
their illustrative maps and charts and tables,
will be by far the most valuable and popular
work ever issued from the government print
ing Office. 1t will surely contribute much
useful information in the highest degree to
emigrants and settlers in every section of the
country, and much to the development Of the
vast undeveloped resources Of the West and
the South This, too, is a great and practical
reform Of the highest value to the country and
every part Of it,

Where Plug Wrenehes can be Found--How to
Give an Alarm.
Notice is hereby given that plug wrenches
for the purpose of opening hydrants to give
a fire alarm can be found with the police
men. Also at the following places: At
the Harper House drug store, cor. Illinois
and Jefferson streets at Mcdonald store,
cor. Rock River street and Broadway; at
Louis Ranges bakery, cor. Highland and
Adams streets; at James Bellows Farm
ers' Hotel, cor. Rock River and Buffalo
streets at Frank Woods saloon, cor. Or
leans and Ohio streets; at Mrs. Beck S
grocery, cor Exchange and Toledo streets.
The following parties also have private
plug wrenches, viz Keator d Wilson, at
their lumber mill office Weyerhauser &
Denkman, at their lumber mill office; also
at the Water Works engine room
Parties who have occasion to use any OF
these wrenches are requested to return the
same to the places from which they were
procured.
A fire alarm should be given in the fol
lowing manner:
lst-Open a hydrant and let the water
| flow freely.
%nu-O0 Jlle WHlSJlt beIHg SpuHutu az
the water works, close the hydrant, and
open it once, if the fire is in the first ward
twice If in the second ward, three times il
in the third ward, four times if in the
fourth ward, and five times if in the fifth
ward
3d-Listen to the response of the whis
/ tie, and if the answer is incorrect, repeat
the call of the ward but if the right nun
Der of whistles are given, no further effor
is nescesary.
This will enable the iremen to proceed
directly to the place where the fire is in
stead of depending on hearsay reports o.
waiting until the fire itself shows them tn
way.
In giving a fire alarm, open only on,
hydrant, so that no misapprehension ma.
be entertained at the Water Works, as t.
the locality of the fire.
