You will perceive that the net debt-that
is. after deducting railroad and secured liza
bilities and marketable assets-is $780,
33O19.
At the end of the last financial year it was
$I.525,63479. This shows an increase OF
1885, 6s54O. But the above statement includes
$4,000 to be issued on behalf of the Gait
wharf contract, and 100000 issued for the
Portland and Rochester railroad interest ac-
count. Deducting those sums it would show
a decrease in the debt of $l62,3O4.6O.
STREETS.
The amount expended to March l, 1875, by
the Street Department, was $82,S64.34, being
larger than any previous year, unless
perhaps one. 1t is said that the
work the last year included an unusual
amount of paving and other necessary i'm
proyements of a permanent character. How
ever this may have been, trust you will be
able to reduce the cost of this department,
and that you will certainly watch it with
great care, as in it are great margins for
iudicous or injudicious expenditures.
THE SEWERS.
The cost of sewers to March /, 1875, has
been $15,537.92. Against this should be
credited $6,07S.90, collected for assessments
under the present system, so that the net ex-
Dendlture was sS9,4o9.UZ. WIN Ine use OF
Sebago water, this department must continue
to require considerable expenditure.
PUBLIC BUILDINGS AND FIRE DEPARTMENT.
Such examination as 1 have been able to
make of the public buildings shows them
generally, in good order. The same may be
said of the City Fire apparatus. The Fire
Department itself is reported as under good
and efficient discipline.
SCHOOL COMMITTEE.
The new statute under which school COM
mittee has been chosen, was the result o.
much deliberation, and it is hoped, will prove
a practical success. Let it be tested fairly
honestly, and with spirit hostile to all
attempts to secure partisan or personal ad'
vantages. am happy to say the schools
are reported to be in good and improving con-
dition.
ovERsEERs OF THE rooH,
The report of the Overseers OF the Fool
shows but slight increase during the year
of those receiving aid at the Aims House
while there is considerable reduction In the
amount of supplies furnished the poor out
side. We would not shut our eyes to the
| distress which the seyere winter and the d.
minished demand for labor les certainly
caused, yet we may well rejoice that the
| OyerGeers' report shows less suffering here
J then perhaps exists in other cities.

lSHERIFF's PAY.-By law passed the last
winter by the Legislature, the sheriffs who are
paid So day for Selling liquors do not get the
pay if they ale paid witness fees for attending
court the same day. Thus an officer is paid 81
one day for Selling lot of liquors and so cents
for appearing in court the next day to prosecute
the parties who deal in the ardent. II an Off
Ger doesn't do anything he is paid 81 day 10
it, but if he goes into court he only gets 90
cents. 1t is thought that the law will have a
tendency to lessen the number of seizures, but
lis more probable that it will have an effect to
bring the liquor cases to trial certain day In
s,ct week This law was not discovered by
the sheriffs until Saturday night.

An excellent audience, made up of the most
cultured and intelligent people of the city gath
cred at City Hall last evening, to listen to the
lecture by Mrs. Abba Goold Woolson, on the
wonderful valley of the Yo Semitic, From re-
ports elsewhere people had been led to expect
much, and their expectations were more than
met.
OF descriptions of the Yo Semitic there are
many all sufficiently wordy, all embellished
with many and big, but often singularly map
propriate, adjectives, all sounding like descrip-
tions of other mountain scenery, revamped to
suit the larger subject. Mrs. Woolson's de-
scription was the reverse of all this. Instead
of obscuring her subject with language "of lit
tie meaning. though the words were strong,"
she used language which, in opposition to Tai
leyrands maxim, expressed her thought, words
which described the place SO that one seemed
to see it. OF adjectives she has evidently made
study, and has nice appreciation OF their
meanDg-a lost knowledge with many Ameri-
cans. She does not use the m because they are
large-sounding or mouth-flling, or superlative,
but because they aid in giving an idea of the
place she wishes to describe. As she employs
bucu caCA ohO 10 O plCtuiC.
"Word-paintng," so called, is common art,
and the resulting picture is not infrequeutly
suggestive of execution by the brush of house
painter orS4n auction room artist. Mrs. Wool
son has studied her subject, and her.effort is en-
titled to that praise WHICH we accord to good
picture 1t is rich in color, clear and strong in
drawing. Proper perspective is maintained
throughout, and the grandeur of the subject is
not hidden by too great an abundance of mi
mute detail To return to the art simile, she
masses WELL
We regret that our limited space does not
permit fuller report of her lecture, though no
abstract of ordinary length would do it justice.
Every word of the vivid description, from the
start at San Francisco to the end of the jour
ney in the very heart of the Serras is worthy
of reproduction in print, and will doubtless be
reproduced in some shape moro lasting than
the ephemeral form which newspaper can
give, at no distant day. The delivery of the
lecture was worthy Of its matter, and was elo-
quent and animated. The audience was deep ly
interested and not chary of its approval. The
fact that Mrs. WoolsOn is Portland woman
added not little to the general qualification.
FUNERAL.-The funeral of Miss Abba M.
JerIis took place yesterday afternoon from her
residence on Chestnut street. Rev. DR.. Car

interesting and impressive. The music, by

The committee have believed the course of
study prescribed for the High School could
be more advantageously pursued, if scholars
came to that school with a more thorough
knowledge of English Grammar, Geography,
and Arithmetic. The higher branches taught
in the High School imply thorough
acquaintance with these elementary studies, as
we'll as degree of mental discipline neces-
sary to the comprehension of the more
abstract subjects of which these higher
branches treat. The report then goes
on to show how these lost links
in an education, never supplied after
wards, cause failure in college, and failure to
secure teachers position. Also how injudi-
cious parents, discouraged at the slow prog
ress of their children, their judgment warped
bv natural affection, withdraw them from the
Grammar schools and put them under private
tuition with reference to an examination for
the High school, Here they compete with
those who have completed the whole Gram
mar school course. The result is to crowd
the lower class of the High school with
scholars imperfectly prepared, who impede
the progress of the class and have to spend
two years in completing the work of the first
High school year, and even that extra time
has not supplied the deficiency in studies no
longer taught in the High school. The pupils,
who have been promoted from class to class
in the Grammar schools for unusual ability,
are naturally discouraged when they find this
short cut opened to their associates, not their
peers in scholarship, who thus anticipate
them year in getting into the High school.
1t has been proved that in the examination
for the grammar and high schools, the private
school children fell behind those trained in
the primary schools. This fact should do
away with the prejudice against the primaries
on the part of some of our most intelligent
citizens.
The committee have felt that it was desira-
BILE at an early day to raise the standard for
admission to the high school, either by pro-
longing the grammar course a year, or by
modifying the primary course SO it will sup
ply the grammar course with better culture
All they have been able to do was to require
quire that the annual examination for admis-
sion to the high school shall be real test Of
scholarship, and not mere formality, and
that the fairest one was written examine
