The labor system differs greatly in the three Scandinavian countries. In Den mark the prison labor is let to private contractors; and the director general of prisons, MT. Rruun, defends the system as the best yet devised, being there, he says, held so firmly in hand by the prison authorities as to prevent all in terference with the discipline and ex- clude all hurtful influences. In Sweden the labor is managed on mixed system, that is, partly on account of the state and partly by letting it to contractors, though the latter, it must be confessed, is dominant. Nevertheless, MT. Ann quist, director. general of prisons of Sweden, gentleman of large observa- tion and experience. thinks that to se- cure the best results of prison disci- pline, so far as the reformation of prison CTS is concerned, all the industries should

Betting in New York.

NEW YoNK, November 1.-The Chi
fanny rush upon the betting Wa 'nt made
to-day by the Republicans, as t,..atened
by their leaders. In fact, tn bottom
has dropped out OF Their rjnIitnce CON-
pletelv, At 10 o'ciock TO night ,1cEe
were 2OOG persons present at Morlisse 5
pool room, and yet the betting seemed to
lag more than it has for week. The
odds are in favor of TIlden IN this state
and have increased to 81 900 to $3.50 on
the general result. The pool seller an
nounced that he was authorized to bet
$4,000 on Tilden and the general result
to $500. No response. He then of
tered 500 to SIS. 1t was taken. He
offered the same again which was also
taken. He offered it the third time, but
no one responded.
1t is folly for the Radical papers to say
that these are not genuine bets. l have
seen the money put up myself in various
instances by parties of indebted stand
ing, and Gould's checks for $4,000 were
seen by several of my acqusintances.
Tonight, however, Gould is not visible,
for the respectable Republicans of the
city have taken fright at his prominence
and threaten a serious bolt.

The Situation In New York.

NEW York, November 5.-The ex-
element over the approaching election
is intense and this evening the Hobbies
of hotels were crowded with persons
eagerly discussing the result in this state,
v hich many believe will decide the
contest. Betting is very heavy and the
pool room quotations favor Tilden. The
Republicans claim these do not represent
the real state of the pools and outside
wagels are nearly even on the State
ticket, the Republicans giving odds on
the general result. The canvass in the
city, owing to the fact that the local De-
mocracy are almost certain of being
elected, is claimed as calculated not to
bring out full vote and this the Re-
publcans urge as favorable to them.

Toying the superior contrast between old
burning fluid IN lamps and the rich
Generous illumination that flowed through
the gas mains BY Tuesday or Wednes-
day evening, Messrs. Capt. Mcclure,

Coen. who are applicants, will
be able TO throw the lamps in the scrap
pile. and forever bid adieu to the fears
and horrors of explosions, fires, and the
unexpected cremation of the whole fam
lily while they are away on business.
What the Island folks now want, and
the sooner the better, is for council to
hurry up and have lamp-posts put
up. that connections can BE-
promptly made with the mains. As for
the present system of lighting the Island
it is q nuisance, half the time the lamps
are not burning and the other half they
don't impart as much illumination as a

Except Germany, which probably will
not interfere, all the powers have ap-

OF the powers think the line should be

pearsrce when placed in the cemeteries,
as well a, to reflect great credit to the
Mudoon Marble Works Tor the superior
ity of their work over great many other

Neither the State or Navy Depart
ments has recent information concerning
the United States steamship Franklin,
but it is supposed that she will be heard
from sometime this week. While there
is no doubt that Tweed, il a prisoner on

correspondence on the subject will be
published before the meeting of Congress.
When the Spanish government informed

in accordance with the wishes OF our gov
eminent, the American legation was in

Editors OF the Register.
DEAR SIR observed by the Sunday
Leader of yesterday that proposition
has been made TO our citizens by Cheya-
lier Rossi, President OF the Society OF
Art at Milan, through Governor Jacob,
that if they will furnish proper quarters,
free OF expense, the society Will forward
sixty pieces OF sculpture and as many
paintings, comprising some OF the finest
works Of art on exhibition a. the Cen
tennial in the Itsilan department. The
object in bringing them here Is
of course, to effect sales. There are
plenty of suitable places in our city that
might be had for such purpose, MS for
instance, the room now occupied by the
Central Democratic club, or the Llnds-
lev Institute building, both of which in
a few days will be vacant, might be had
for low figure. There are plenty OF
our citizens who had not an opportunity
TO visit the Centennial that might now
have sight OF choice part OF it at their
doors. Besides there are any number of
people right around Wheeling, as every
where else, who did take
in the Art Gallery and annex
when they were on, that had not time TO
properly study and admire the many
beautiful and noble works Of art there
displayed, that would now delight in
looking upon and admrring them to
their Learts' content. 1t will be an op.
portunity for seeing and purchasing to
those who have the means, and wish to
So invest them-the works OF
art that stand foremost among
those of the best masters III the world.
An opportunity that may be truly said,
the like OF I. very few OF us will have
chance to see again. II possible, lot
President Rossi be encouraged To send
on the works, and IN order 10 have the
proposition materialiZe, will not some OF
our citizens who have the time and Incll-
nation take hold of the matter, and If all
things are favorable start a subscription
to detray the necessary expenses q.
