lr THE CONTEST over tho Connolly viii lasts
much longer Surrogate Calvin WILL in all prob

A MARINE COURT JUDGE decides that the
Fourth Of July is not legal holiday, which is
additional for the abolition Of the
Court aud an outrage Oh the Fathers.
REcENER LAWRENCE has made a decision of
very great Importance to the policy holders of
the Popular Life Insurance Company-premium

INTERESTING HEBREW SERVICES IN memory of
MIR. Judah Touro, one of Ncwport's beneiactors,
werc held in the synagogue in that city yestei-
day. Newport formerly the residence of q
large number of wealthy Hebrews, and it is
largely indebted TO them in many ways.
GEORGIA is MOLLY LIVING up TO her pledges
and to the amendments to the constitution. In
bill Of rights just adopted citizenship is guaran-
teed to all races and tiogging Tor crime is pro-
hbtcd. Delaware and Virginia would do well
to initiate the example OF the Empire State of
the South in the matter of the whipping post.
SECTION ONE HUNDRED AND NINE of the
charter ought to be remembered 1t provides
that any five citizens who taxpayers may
move Tor an investigation into the conduct of
any city official, and OF the Supreme Court
Justices must assist them. The exercise now
and then OF the power conferred by this section
would accomplish an immense amount of good.
EIGHTEEN LODGES or INDIANS. supposed to
be Josephs followers, have cres.ted good deal
OF CONSERVATION in Montana. The settlers have
gathered into stockades, but the savages do not
appear to he in fighting condition, and will
probably contne themselves to plundering.
From the number of their wounded they have
evidently been severely punished by General
Howard.
LET ALBANY ALoNE.-Tae liquor men are
talking about sending one to Albany who
will not vote Tor AN Excise law to suit them
This is wrong There are other persons tebe
suited well as they. What the honest men i'll
the trade ought ~ do is to- endeavor to aid the
authorities i'll framing law that shall be just to
all concerned, and that will reprcss vice and i'm
morality Us far rs possible. The less they say
about Albany the better tor their interests.
THE AcTIoN OF THE ADMINISTRATION in ar
resting Escobedo and fourteen or fifteen other
generals and colonels for violation Of our neu-
traty laws will be approved by the whole co,n
try. Escobcdo and his party appear to have
been surprised. Mexican bandits and outlaws
have been long accustomed TO do what they
please OH the border that they believe we have
no rights there ut all. One ot them, see
broke the terms Of his release. AS soon as he IL
caught he ought to be sent to State Prison.
CIvIL SERVICE REFORM. will be no
exceptions in the enforcement Of the civil SER
vice rules. Assistant Secretary OF the Treasury
Mccormick, cx-Governor Noyes, of Ohio, and
three four other gentlemen high up in the
party, who hoped TO escape, have found that
there in holding out, and have given
up their places on the campaign committees.
What is good Tor the subordinate ought To DO
good enough for the principal ofiice-holders.
The administration would have made itself
ridiculous by making fish OF and hcsh OF the
other.
THE WEArHER--The barometer continues
very high throughout the country. especially III
the northern scctions The depression that ap-
pcarcd ia the Upper Missouri Valley has passed
away far 10 the northward. probably to the
southern shores OF liudson's Bay, and will
move oil the cYast OF Labrador into tho
North Atlantic during the latter part OF
