TROY, April ].
Special dispatches to the Troy Times
this evening, says;
Senator Wood, this morning, introduced
bill to remodel the system of public edu-
cation. 1t provides that the supcrinten-
dent of public instruction shall be appoint
ed by the regents Of the university for Il
period of six years, that the term Of the
present regents shall expire six years
hence, when the governor and senate shall
appoint their SUCCESSORS. The bill was or
dered to third realing without objection,
and will pass probably by " unanimous
vote. The democrats favored it as well as
the republicans. 1t is believed it can he
passed in the assembly rs well as the sen
ate in time to head off the election of SUI
perintcndcnt next Tuesday
TIE SUPPLY BILL.
The vote is now being taken on the sup
ply bill in the assembly. Gentlemen are
explaining their votes, and an effort is be-
ing made to defeat its passage, with "a view
of getticg in new appropriations for var.
ious purposes. A motion to clt off half
million from the appropriation for the new
capitol was lost.
SECOND DISPATCH.
The attempt to defeat the supply bill
failed, large number of members chang
ing their votes to the affirmative after vo-
ting against it. a brief speech of Smit>
Weed aided greatly in this result, as tie
bill passed by 81 to 81. 1t thus passes the
house just month earlier than last year,
and with 81 10000 less OF appropriations
In view of the opposition Bltcheller's vic
tory is complete and gratifying.
The supply bill when reported appro-
priated 81 ,l30, 77l.9l less than last year
In the house was added $4,000, embrac-
ing $4,000 To Buffalo asylum, $4,000
for the Susquehanna Valley asylum and the
balance comprised miscellaneous allow
anccs. There is appropriated for public
buildings $607 900 more than was last
year, thus relatively the supply bill is at
this time Sl.737, 900 less than last year, de-
Quoting ad ltions made. In the house it is
Sl,567,00 less. Last year the bill was re-
ported March 18th, ordered to a third read
ing May 81, and sent to the senate May
18th. This year it is reported March 9th,
passed. April 81, and sent to the senate the
same day.
THE PINoKNEY-MnORE CONTESTED CASE.
In the senate to-day Mr.. Woodlin called
from the table the memorial of W. s.
Pinckney, contestant of the eighth sena-
torial seat. The memorial alleges that
Moore is deserter from the federal army.
Mr. Woodlin stated that there is no law of
this state which would permit the legisla-
ture to allow TIE question of desertion to
! affect the right of Moore to hold his seat,
and he therefore moved that the petition
be denied. Agreed to, all the senators
voting therefor except Tobey, who voted
no, and Cole and Bradley, of the commit
tee of elections, who were excused from
voting.

DISASTROUS FIRE IN LONDON.

BURNED.

Eight Thousand Dollars in Government

A disastrous conflagration occurred at
the south village of Londonderry on Mon
day morning the Both ult The fire was
fist discovered about 0 o'clock In the fore
noon, when the dwelling owned and
occupied by the widow David Babbitt was
rapidly yielding to the devouring element.
The flames soon spread TO the dwelling
owned and occupied by Bliss Goddard,
which was totally consumed, as was the
first. The flames soon extended to the
third dwelling, that of Ceylon Farnham,
which, together with the outbuildings and
those connected with the dwellings previ-
ousy mentioned, succumbed 10 the fire

There being neither engine or fire de-
partment in the place, the fire as a matter
Of course was fought at great disadvantage,
although the citizens did their best with
such meuns as they could command.
AN AMUSING INCIDENT.
An incident, somewhat ludicrous in and
of ITSELF transpired during the burning of
Bliss Goddards house. The old gentle
man has the reputation of being quite well
off SO far as this worlds goods are con-
cernel. Before his dwelling had got far
unlcr way, who should be seen emerging
therefrom but the anxious proprietor
bearing an iron kettle in his hands
which he excitedly handed TO a
neishbor, requesting him to take care of it
The ncighbor, very naturally, supposing
that the old gentleman was So much beside
himself that he knew but little of what he
was about, took the kettle and sat it down
but comparatively short distance from
the burning building, having but little fear
Of its Icing acholiy consumed. After the
fire had levcled everything before it, Mr..
Goddard began TO make inquiries for the
aforesaid kettle, his anxiety being gradua-
ted by $4,000 in United Stiics govern.
ment bonds which he had deposited therein.
The kettle was soon found but the bonds
had the unmistakahlc "smell of fire" about
them. being charred to an unenvable extent.
However, it Is thought they will not be
total loss to their owner, and report has it
that "Uncle Bliss" is about to start for
Washington, taking with him kettle, bonds
and coupons, and calling upon the treasury
department, will make vigorous efforts to
have the debris deciphered and exchanged
for others of later and more improved
pattern.
ITS ORIGIN
The fire is thought to have originated
from smoke-barrel in use near the prem

To the Voters Of the Second Congressional
Districts
Eight DAYS ago announced myself
rs candidate for Congress. At that
time contest was being wRged, and
had been carried on fot mouths be-
tween two Republican, candidates and
their friends. which from its character,
had dissatisfied many OF the best men
OF the party with both candidates. Al
the request Of such Republicans as also
at the solicitation of some of the best
men of the opposite party who desired.
In my election, TO see the people OF the
District give more emphatic rebuke
10 the Civil Rights Bill than they could
otherwise do, | became a candidate.
Since being candidate Hon. l.. C.,
Houk, one Of The Republican candidates,
has Withdrawn from the contest in my
favor. In so doing Judge Houk has
shown his personal friendship for me,
but more especially has he vindicated
his devotion TO the principles he has
professed.
Meanwh bile the divisions in the Re.
publican ranks have been seized upon
by certain Democratic politicians as an
opening TO elect one OF their own mum.
Der. In the greed for place the great
issues of Civil Rights and an equitable
system OF Finance, which would relieve
the distressed and impoverished South,
have been forgotten. The, have mathe-
matically calculated "ihe divide Of the
Republican vote between Houk, Thorn
burgh and Brownlow," and "between
Thornburgh aud Brownlow, so as TO
elect one OF or men," and arrived at
the conclusion that the election of one
Of their own number is an assured re-
suit. | dii not announce myself for
Congress with the view of dividing the
Republican party so as to elect a Dino
crat, who would have no influence
when he got to Washington. My time
is too valuable to be occupied IN that
way. Therefore, it ia that | now
withdraw from the contest. In doing
so return my heartfelt thanks for the
assurances OF support which have re-
ceived from my old Republican friends
and from many valued citizens who
have heretofore differed with me. or
this latter class, have to say, that their
course toward me lisa source of salts
faction. Ii augurs well for the country,
that there are in the district brave aud
patriotic men who have shown them
selves capable Of rising above party,
and doing that which they sincerely
believe TO be for the best interest of The
country.
shall continue to fight the abomi-
nable Civi. Rights Bill, aud all such sec
tlonal, class legislation, but | will do il
inside the Republican party.
The platform of the Republican State
Convention Is sound on Civil Rights,
and on this platform the Republican
candidates from Maynard down will,
as they deserve, carry this district by
several thousand majority. This is my
prediction, and put it in opposition to
that of the small politicians who be-
lieve otherwise and who really know
nothing of the District.
When | again have occasion TO ad.
dress the public, lexpec, 1t to be through

Corn and Pork Prospects.

Gentlemen engaged in agriculture,
who have been travelling in central,
western, southeastern and northern
Ohio, make mnch more favorable re-
port on the crops than have been sent
ont by the agricultural department.
The drought still continues TO some ex-
tent. but the wheat and rye are already
well up and they are looking well. In
Union, Marion and Delaware Counties
and eastward toward the river, there r.
very little corn, but in the other sections
mentioned, the prospect is one of
abundance, The acreage Is greater
than last yecr and though the percent.
age of bushels Is less TO the aero, the
corn is very solid and will weigh well.
The dry weather has maturcd the crop
and the fodder has been entirely secured.
The improved corn returns and the
high price Of hogs are resulting in
promising greater number OF pounds
of pork than had been calculated on.

Civil Rights Bill,

The Kingston Independent, edited by
Rev. G. w. Coleman, has sensible ar.
ticle upon the civil rights bill, from
which we make the following exstract,
with the remark that Brother Coleman
| is Republican In principle, and sympa-
ihies with that party when be believes
it right:
Whatever Others may think, we are
satisfied that the passage of the supple.
mental civil rights bill bv the Senate
was great mistake, and one, too, which
has set the South back in many respects
for years. And, no doubt the threaten.
ing position Of the bill, rs il now lies
upon the table in The House, has had
much to do in stirring up the bad blood
Of the rebellious element in the South.
II the South Is to be put under martial
law, then such bill can be practically
carried out, but not otherwise. And IL
enforced by FEDERAL authority, IL could
only result in evil both TO the white and
black man, under the present cFcum-
stances and with the race prejidices
that exist. Society in the South has
not been in such an unsettled condition
since the war as at present, and we have
no apology to make for the lawhsness
that exists and the cold. blooded mnr.
ders which have been committed, o,
how disgraceful they are! How our
fair Christian name is furnished and
blackened by such flendish conduct!
But. at the Same time, we can not help
holding Congress, at least indirectly,
responsible for much Of this trouble.
That CicH Rights b. to say no more,
is absolutely unnecessary. While tho
politician may find ii a profitable invest
menl, and may take large stock in it,
we most emphstically declare that II Ia
curse TO the .yeomanry of the country.
Others say, 30, there is not much in the
bill, no way" Now, one of two things
is certain, either tie man who so states
does not understand what he Ia talking
about or else he is demagogue, and
intends 10 mislead the people.
