o The Editor of the Journal:

TO The Editor of the Journal:
Christmas has just PASSED, with the usual
festivities, and judging from the large number
of packages seen in the cars and the large
number of Christmas trees in this vicinity, we
should say that notwithstanding the hard
times everybody must have been remembered.
Two weeks ago every one in Cambridge
felt that they had lost friend, and that the
world had met with great loss in the death
of Professor Agassiz. Last Monday the death
Of Mrs. Alexander Agassiz, wife Of the only

given in the report which show not only
the extent of the financial failure but its
gradual progress from the small sum OF
about 5000 a year to half million,
until it has swelled up to the large sum OF
100000, drawn from the people by d.
rect taxation. The labor of the prisoners
is let by contract for forty cents day at
Sing Sing. and little more than fifty
cents a day at Auburn. During the last
fiscal Year the prison expenditures showed
a clear loss to the State of $iG5, 8S7 81.
In the preceding year the deficit of earn
ings was still greater, being $47o,3 %,
and in the six years just ended, the excess
OF advances from the State Treasury over
receipts from earnings, amounted to the
very large sum of - ,S72 ,G93 o.
A comparison is made between the
financial management of the New York
and Ohio prisons much TO the apparent
disadvantage of the former. The report
says that reformatory schools and houses
of refuge are matters of economy to the
people. even were they more costly in
cash expenditures than all the prisons.

The New York Prison Association has
just issued its annual report, from which
important facts are obtained. The total
number of persons constantly in prison,
under sentence for felones or State Prison
oifenses in New York, is very nearly 3d.
O0o The prisons are not self-supporting
as they are conducted, but, on the contrary,
draw heavily upon the State treasury every
year. The total amount of legal APP
preparations by the State since the present
system was put into practice, has been
81, G98,5O6 43. When from this sum is
deducted the whole amount paid into the
Treasury by the prisons it is found that
they have cost by direct taxation, about
s7,O91.799 G2, beginning at less than
500. 900 a year, and growing until they
draw nearly half million dollars an
nually from the Treasury. Tables are

Many complaints have recently been
made by collectors of internal revenue
with regard to the manner in which their
salaries are fixed under the new CONSOLE
dated law. This law imposes upon the
collector of Internal Revenue the duty of
determining the salaries of every Internal
Revenue collector, taking for the basis OF
his estimates the amount of business tran
sacted in the respective district. In many
localities such an adjustment has reduced
the salary below the former sum, which
has rendered easy complaint of partial
and unequal adjustment. The Commits
sioner of Internal Revenue recommends q
change of the law SO that collectors shall
receive fixed salary.

The Governor of Wyoming territory
gives q strong endorsement in his mes
sage to woman suffrage. 1t will be rec
objected that the women there have voice
in governmental affairs, and the Governor
speaks by practical knowledge. He says
"The experiment Of granting to women a
voice in Government, which was inaugurated,
for the first time in the history of our coun-
try by the first Legislative Assembly of Wy
oning, has now been tried four years. have
heretofore taken occasion to express my views
in regard TO the wisdom and justice of this
measure and my conviction that its adoption
had been attended only by good results. Two
years more of observation of the practical
working of the system have only served to
deepen my conviction that what we, in this
Territory have done, has been well done, and
that our system of impartial suffrage is an
unqualified success" DID,.

The sinking of the Virginius is fitting
close to her filbustering career. Although
having cost our government millions of
dollars, few tears will be shed at her loss.
Possibly Mr.. Patterson may now appear
with little bill for damages, but it is
doubtful if he has stomach for that, and
will feel content to be let alone. The
lesson of the Virginius is not very COM
forting or encouraging to filibustering
parties.

In connection with the pres mt
weather, when tho thermomet,
has downward tendency, it is
interesting to watch the gradual
rise of the ooiffure, until each par
ticular hair is brought to the top
of the head. When ell the hair is
thus brought to IN apex the ques-
ton naturally arises. Where on
earth will the bonnet rest! Its
former location-restiDg on the
nose-was found to be undesirable,
a. it obstructed the view, and
gave sort of "Mose'' expression
to the faco. It has now changed
its position to the back OF the head
