TIE Ovef-erGWded state of our
schools renders it necessary that
immediate action be taken on the
part of the school board to procure
the services of a first-class teacher !:
to assist Mr.. Jones in teaching the
higher branches.
According to our notion of the
duty of principal in an Academy,
his position makes, or should make,
it incumbent upon him to visit each
md every department at least once
a week. This Mr. Jones finds it
impossible to do in his present sit
uation; for to our own certain
| knowledge he is busy the entire
time attending merely to his own
classes. Now this is not as it should
be: and if the school board would
only take the trouble of visiting
the schools from time to time they
would find that this statement is not
at all exaggerated, nay, hardly does
it come up to the mark. This is
not doing Mr.. Jones justice, for he
| is about the hardest worked teacher
we ever saw in our lives neither
does it do the children justice, be-
cause one room ought not to claim
his sole undivided attention; MOI
does it do the people justice, for
they want to have their children
attended to, even at the expense OF
a few dollars extra. Can we get
such a teacher as we have men
/ tioneda Yes The school board can
procure the services of a teacher
who does not, nor never did, ac-
knowledge superior in the State

THERE is general movement
among Eastern manufacturers to
reduce the wages of employees, and
lessen the number of hours work
in proportion. Every day brings
reports of men discharged from
large establishments, and other
means to curtail expenses. Some of
the men connected with trades
unions refuse to accept the terms of
liberal employers, and are perma-
nently throwing themselves ont of
good situations thereby. We are
glad to note, however, that this dis
position is not at all unanimous, in
view of the fact that the present
money stringency warrants the eN-
pectation of hard times during the
winter.

THE COUNTY ELECTION:
srRACHAN STRETCHED,
PECK PREVAILS.

So far as heard from, the election
on Tuesday was not SO satisfactory
to Republicans, nor SO propitious
for true Reform, as We should like
to have it. In this Assembly Dis
trict, however, the defeat of John
Strachan, the Farmers Friend
is something to rejoice over, and
recompense for the disappointment
Of having the nameless mongrel
ticket receive a majority in old
Iowa county over Governor Wash
burn and his worthy associates.
Notwithstanding horde Of paid
understrappers sent out from this
city to every precinct in the district
armed, with Icing circulars and
other Democratic adjuncts, the
Farmers Friend" failed to make
any considerable Roadway except
at Linden, and in some places ran
behind his ticket, so that in the
whole he was beaten by "A majority.
In Miinin, Moscow and Waldwick'
the EARN ers' Friend" received 53
less than his party vote; in this
city he barely kept even with his
ticket, Notwithstanding towering
work by some of his hackers. Not
a very good " home endorsement"
Mr.. Parks, We are sorry to say.
is defeated by about 256 majority.
Bro. Peck is himself good worker,
and has many warm friends who
labored hard for him in all parts of
the county, while Mr.. Parks did
not, we believe, even visit this part
Of the county, or make any person
al effort except at his home, where
he was handsomely sustaiued-re-
ceiving about 80 more votes than
his party ticket, which speaks vol
mnes for him.
| In the Northern Assembly Dis
trict Chris. David made most ex-
| cellent run. In his own town, High
land, the Gibraltar of Democracy,
he ran one hundred ahead Of his
ticket. In Clyde and Pulaski he
! also ran ahead, so as to reduce
Rowe's majority to but $50, though
the Democratic majority for the
State ticket in the District was over
300. We congratulate Chris. on his
good run. A few more men like
him in the benighted Northern Dis
trict would soon change the COM
| pleXion of politics up there.
Taylors majority IL the county is
about 235, a gain Of 60 over Doolit-
ties vote in 1871. Except at Dodge
vile and Linden, the Republicans
made general gain over the vote
of two years ago; but IN those two
towns we lost about 1870; and to them
is directly chargeahle the Demo-
cratic gain.
The following table shows the vote
| of the county so far as received; the
official count cannot vary the major
tiles materially:
