THE SCHOOL QUEsTIoN.-A cores
pondent of the Sacramento Record Cn'0n
who is writing up the third-term propo-
sition, furnishes the following:
"Some four years ago George Z. Cor
ham proposed in the caucus OF the VA.
tional Republican party an amehulileh'
to the Constitution OF the United 9'ates
by which all States in the I mon shouiu
be forever prohibited from dlVldlhg Ihe
school fund for sectarian purposes, thus
making taxation Tor the support OF sec
tartan education forever unconstltull0ha',
and setting at rest once ana ior all Ihe
agitation OF the mooted school questlo n,
When | say M. Gorham did TINS, 1
mean to say that | tell what L know W
be true, but when say what am about
to say, to-wit that Mr.. Gorham.s su 9
gestion will be acted upon by the kepuo-
lican Senate this winter, l say only what
| have the best of reasons tpr believing TO
be true. The Senate will throw bold
challenge to the Democratic House IN the
form of an amendment to the Constitution
of the United States forever prohibiting
States from dividing the school tund.
This is now an agreed measure in the
councils of the party, and it was IN fuli
knowledge of this fact that Grant hastened
to accept the issue at Des Molnes, Iowa,
before the reunion OF the army OF the
Tennessee. In fact, it was sought to be
made to appear in that speech that Grant
originated the issue. Be all that as 1t
NAV, the Senate will challenge the House
on the issue, and the House will not dare
to meet it,"

WAR ON TIE BoRDER.-Under date
November 2l,t, San Antonio (Texas)
dispatch conveys this intelligence: "A
Telegram was received at the United States
military headquarters here yesterday
from Colonel Patter, at Brownsville, re-
porting that 30 men of the Eighth Cavalry
had crossed the Rio Grande to support
Capt. McNally, who had been driven to
the river by MeXicans but had been or
dered to return. 1t appears that the
United States Cavalry caught the Mexi-
can cattle thieves crossing the river with
the stolen cattle, and demand was made
by the United States officers on the Mex
lean authorities to deliver up the cattle
aud thieves, which was not done. The
United States troops being ordered not to
cross the liver, remained on this side,
While McNally, with his Texas State
troops crossed over and attempted to re-
capture the cattle The Mexicans drove
McNaIly before them, when Il number OF
soldiers Of the Eighth Cavalry crossed
over contrary 10 orders and fought the
MeXicans side by side with McNal!y s
men until they were obliged by over
whelming numbers to fall back to this
side Of the river. -Four Mexicans were
killed 1t is not improbable that the
MeXicans viii cross over. The cattle
were not recovered"

REsUMPTION.-The following, relative
to the redemption of fractional paper cur
rency in silver coin, Las been taken from
the annual report OF DR.. Linderman, Di-
rector of the Mint: 1.-The policy Of the
redemption of the fractional paper cur
rency in silver coin in advance of gold
resumption has been discussed to some
extent and various suggestions have been
made as to the practicability Of the plan.
So tar as the measure was predicated on
the expected favorable condition of the
silver market, the result has thus far been
satisfactory, and will, no doubt, continue
to be so in the future but appreciation
in the value of legal tender notes has not
taken place. On the Contrary the average
value Of paper currency has been lower
since, than it was at the time of the pass
age Of the Act, and this Notwithstanding
the fac: that about $4,000 900 in legal
tender notes have been withdrawn and
cancelled. A very gradual contraction of
legal tender notes and a moderate revival
of business will, it is probable, by the
time the necessary stock of silver coin to
commence redemption can be prepared, ,
reduce the gold premium to such point
as to insure success to the measure"

A MADMAN's LETTER.-S9natOr Cor
don, of Georgia, recently received the
following letter, postmarked Washington,
November 1lth, 1875: 81 am good
Democrat, but poverty and starving
family compelled Inc to solic. and accept
a subordinate position from the Govern
ment, and to keep my place, | have been
obliged to pretend to be the strongest of
Radicals. | have just accidentally come
into the possession Of secret which it is
my duty to unfold, and ! do so with fear
and trembling. Certain fanatics at the
North have formed themselves into Sc
cret society, and intend to come here in
great numbers on the first of Decem Der,
under pretense Of celebrating the martyr
dom Of old John Brown, who was execut-
ed on the "a Of December, 1853, at the
town Of Charleston, Virginia. But their
real object is to murder every member OF
Congress"

OUR ARMY AND WHAT 1T CosTs Us.
The annual report of General Sherman,
after stating the geographical limits Of
various commands, says that the aggre-
gate strength of the line Of the army,
according to the last reports received, is
1880 officers and 24,031 enlisted men,
made up as follows: Five regiments Of
artillery. 27O officers, 2,054 men; ten
regiments of cavalry, Az officers, 1906
men twenty-five regiments OF infantry,
S4S officers, IL 600 men.
De refers to the campaign OF last
winter against the Iowa, Cheyenne and
Comanche Indians, in their depredations
in Texas and on the Kansas frontier,
which has resulted in their disarmament
and subjection, and suggests that the
supplies for these Indians be placed under
the control of the military commanders,
by which peace can be obtained. Regard
ing the incursions Of Sioux into Northern
Nebraska to steal cattle and horses from
the farmers, the General says that the
suggestion Of General Crook, that troops
be stationed in the midst Of the Indians
to prevent their leaving, is impractcable
until the army can have the supervision
of Indian supplies. Generally speaking
the damage to life and property by the
Indians is believed to be less during the
past year than for many former years,
and the prospect is that as the country
settles up it will lessen each year, until
all the Indians are established on small
reserve.
The annual report of the Commissary-
General on the subsistence Of the army
shows that the amoant appropriated for
the subsistence Of the army for the fiscal
year ending June 80, 1874, 81, $50, 900, and
the amount on fand June 80, 500, 1T 81.
He reviews at length the work perfo med
in his office, gives list of claims for
subsistence, supplies alleged to have been
| furnished to the army by loyal citizens
in the States not in rebellion that were
fled for examination as paid or rejected,
makes recon mendations regarding army
rations, and suggests that $500, GOO of the
amount to be appropriated for the support
of the army for the next fiscal year be
made available prior to next January.
He also gives an account of disburse-
ments made for the grasshopper sufferers.

THE New York hdependent, editori-
ally speaking Of the latest phase of the
Beecher case, says that the result which
Plymouth Church has tried to avoid has
come upon her, and her ecclesiastical iso-
lation is very near at hand. In the find
ing of the lately appointed Congregational
Council it thinks that there can be little
doubt, and considers that the Council will
be compelled to rebulle Plymouth Church;
and unless that Church shall withdraw
from its formal action and proceed to in
vestigate the charges made by Mrs
Moulton, by former trial of Beecher,
the Council will recommend to the
churches to withdraw their fellowship.

The ssFiRarO', Club.

There has lately been organized in New
York club called the Figaro Dramatic
and Literary Association, which is to
offer equal facilities to men and women
alike, and is to be made particularly use
(ul as sort of dramatic agency, that
will do away with the extort;onate mid
die men. The experiment is in some re-
spccts novel ono for this country. In
London recently club was organized in
which both ladies and gentlemen actively
participate in the privileges of 1ncm-
bcrship. The latter has not yet
been in existence long enough to
determine whether or not it will
prove a success, and consequently the
former is almost without precedent to
determine whether or not ladies and gen.
tlemen can ming|e in the suffragcs OF a
club without sacrificing the main object
for which it is organized to incidental
and altogether collateral issues. In the
Figaro there will be, as the list already
shows, quite number of the leading ac.
tors and actresses included in its mem.
bership. Some OF the features it pre-.
sents are very excellent; among others,
wiz P~J A"o Va tSAIoCo VA CAC DID "
deceased members, visiting the sick: ad.
vancing money to members in need
Of it, and the establishment OF
a bureau that will enable "a.
dies and gentlemen contemplating an dp
pcarancc upon the stage to obtain the
consideration Of managers without being
subject to the discourteous treatment
they have frequently to endure from
agents. Aclub-house elegantly furnished
is talked of, and as a social organization
the best results are anticipated. The
genial bearing of actors towards each
other is proverbiaI, and it is likely thai
everything will work smoothly enough on
the male side. But the bringing togethe,
under one roof and within the same so.
cial circle Of rival actresses is matte,
that should be seriously reflected upor
before the articles Of the constitution in.
culcating enforced friendship are fully
drafted.
