CHILED STABLES.

The usual method of ventilating stables
beneath barns, is by allowing the foul air
to escape through the hay and grain stored
above the animals. This 10 Objectionable
for obvious reasons. Such stables. with
poles or rails for the floor above, are din
ey. dark, and generally well festooned
with cobwebs. Besides their disagreed
BILE appearance, they allow the dust, chat,
and hay-seed, to fall upon the backs Of
the cattle, and these are thus always kept
unclean. Dark stables and coats matted
with dust are not healthful for cattle. to
say nothing of the deteriorated condition
of the feed stored above them, which is
exposed to all the Ioul air that rises from
beneath. We greatly prefer to have the
floor above laid with matched boards,
which will prevent any dust falling
through, and to have the beams and un-
der side of the floor whitewashed. Nen-
tilation may be provided by spouts,
through which hay or straw could De
thrown down below, and which should
terminate in grated openings beneath the
eaves.-Amerlcan AgricuAurist.

Editors of the Register:
To express an opinion on the location
of the capitol buildings, would not the
following be worthy to consider: Let
the committcc purchase the two lots
bounded by Chapline, 10th and Eotf
streets. and erect building sufficiently
large for the accommodation Of the State
Then if the capital should remain here the
State could purchase the balance of the
square. including the Hemptield depot
property, ON which at some future day
An extensive building could be erected in
TN. shape of two Is by arching Seven
tccnth 'old john street, and leaving
beautiful square. which might be set Oft
with fountains, monuments, &c, and he
used for public meetings. Such build
inc could then be arranged TO answer for
city. county and Stat" purposes, but the
architectural plans, from the beginning,
should be made with view for such II
building in future. let the committee
consider thi, suggestion, and if deemed
rood purchase the two lots proposed
above. instead of spelling such plan for
the future by using the two lots fronting
on Chaplinc street. -.

of Secretary Bristow for iive-twenti"s for
the sinkiu" fund is divided between
So. 800 600 Of the coupon issues and
=. 100000 Of the registered Of the issue
only of 1852. If these b. the terms of the
,ril. then We have the prospect Of being
called upon within three months TO pay
Europe in some way Tor at least $50, OOO-
900 of bonds, Tor fully that amount Of
the bond, reported to be embraced with
~ the Secretary call j. held by foreign
investors. This, OF course, must constl-
tute very serious element IN the foreign
exchange It, the middle of the year.
Had the call been confined to the
registered issues of 1862 and 1861,
the gold would have been Kept IN the
country, and it, deposits In the Ne"
York banks would have been at
tended with the valuable indirect
advantage Of keeping the money market !.
easy during the coming fall ana winter.
Tie Er.limg Post in commenting upon
the call and IL effects, sa.'s: I'VE notice
that the Secretary says he was obliged by
Inv TO call the bonds in their order OF
issue. If this is 50, OF course he had no
discretion; but on this very point We
made inquiries from the syndicate bank
err. and were explicitly told that during
the las; week of the session of Congress
authority was given him during the fiscal
wear to call any of the issues Of five
twcntIcs without respect To numbers or
to the class of issue, whether registered
or coupon; that this authority was lncor-
porated in the deficiency bill of one OF
the appropriation bills. The only inter-
ference, therefore, Is that they themselves
were misIed, not necessarily, however,
by Secretary BriStow, whom all concede
to be man of un,cruyulous honor.

has requested To be recalled from the
English mission. The reason given for
it Is that the demands made upon him
for living in manner suitable to the

failure Of his Emma mine speculations,
has reduced him TO such an extent, that

THE Richmond Enquirer, journal
which recalls the name and fame of Father
Richie, has just passed into the hands OF
Mp. Handy, James 81. Beals, jr., and
Charles ]. Jones, who are young men
trained to newspaper life, and possessing
that vigor, energy and industry necessary
10 success in journalism. Mr.. Handy was
raised upon the Richmond press, but has
latterly been employed upon the staff of
the New York Tribune, where he has made
for himself an enviable reputation as
clear, forcible and logical writer. Al
though the Enquirer will continue to wend
those como psrvarse political ways in the
future which it has followed in the past,
we shall rejoice in the success as business
enterprise which we hope there is in store
for it under its new management OF one
thing we are confident: it will be wide
awake modern journal, and we shall be
greatly mistaken in the temper and calibre
of the men now IN possession of it if it does
not astonlsh some of its fossilized readers of
Father Ritchie's time by its progress and
independence. Its new prOprietors say
that while it will be thoroughly Conserva-
"tive at the same time it will be indie
pendent of all politicians and cliques,
" and fair and fearless in the expression of
" opinion and the publication of news"

The Baltimore police deserve credit LOT
preserving good order and quiet during the
election of Wednesday. There were no
disturbances of consequence, and the cleo
ton, notwithstanding the full vote, was the
most orderly and circumspect that has &C.
CURED for many years. 1t is claimed how
ever, by the Reformers, that Mr.. Warheld'
their candidate, was cheated out OF his
election by the disfranchisement of num-
bers of his adherents through imperfect
registration, and the fraudulent voting oil
many ballots which were counted for Mr..
Iatrobe. The Reformers have appointed
q committee to collect testimony on this
subject, and proceed by writ of quo f0Gr-
ranto in the courts for the dispossession OF
the mayor-elect from his Office.

A REFERENCE TO the proceedings of the
Board of Police Commissioners yesterday
IN the case of Chief Detective John A. W.
Clarvoe will show that resolution of the
board declares him mot guilty of the
" charge or specifications, or either of
"them." This is most gratifying result,
and one which has been confidently ex-
pected by that gentleman and his friends
from the first. 1t is true that in second
resolution the board declares its opinion
that Chief Clarvoe in the case under inves-
tigation exercised an undue reticence to-
ward the board and several of its members,
and the Chief of Police together with q
lack of promptitude in the arrest of the
suspected party. In other words, the board
finds that in a single instance the chief fell
short of perfection in judgment and vigi-
lance and prompitude of action and report.
While we are not disposed to gainsay this
finding, it occurs to US that perhaps the
most of US would be very glad to be able to
review a service of several years duration,
and escape with SO little censure Of our own
judgments for the shortcomings of like
period. On the whole, then, the public may
well conclude that Chief ClarVoe has been
and is a most acceptable and efficient officer.
