Hon. II. B. Strait.

IL CANNOT DC sald tnat Major
Strait is altogether idle this winter,
for ne appears to be working as Wig
orously as any other congressman,

House byhim, on the 22d of January.
The first is designed to encourage
immigration to the wild lands of the
West, and the second to benefit set.

The Public Schools.

The public schools Of this city
are, perhaps, more completely sys-
ten,atized and wisely managed now
than at any previous period in their
history, and are, of course, afford
ing educational facilities for large
ly increased number of pupils. As
has been already noticed, the Gen.
tral building was improved with an
addition last summer, giving greatly
increased conveniences for the high
school, especially, which had been
badly needed and which tend to
make that one of the best schools
of that grade in the State.
The chief objections made to the
graded schools of Minnesota have
been that the time required for going
through them was too lenghthy; that
the course of study was arranged to
accommodate the dullest intellects;
and that the more active-minded
scholars were delayed to keep pace
with those who were more back
ward. Our observation hitherto
has confirmed us in the opinion that
these objections were we'll founded,
but we incline to believe that they
do not now apply to the schools of
Red Wing. Under the manage
nent Of Superintendent Whitman
the course of study has been mate
rally shortened, as to time, and a
system of monthly examinations has
been introduced, by means of which
scholars are crowded forward as
rapidly as their physical health and
intellectual abilities will permit.
The school rooms are very comfort
able, regularly heated and kept
scrupulosuly neat, clean and order
ly, and, by the way, the reason why
the Board made the recent change
in the janitor of the Central building
was, because the addition built las,
summer increased the labor of tax
ing care of and cleaning the house
and bringing up wood, to such al
extent as to render it absolutel,
necessary to employ a strong, act
i've man for the performance of thes,
duties. The discipline of thes'
schools is we'll maintained and tn,
teachers generally seem anxious t<
do their duty thoroughly. ..,.
In the matter of furnishing text
books and in few other respects
probably, improvements might ye
be made. We think the method O
furnishing textbooks now in vogu'
in Baltimore is worthy of imitation
Here the books are furnished b,
the scholars or parents. This in
wolves the payment Of retail prices
and, in case Of a change of books
or the progress of a scholar from on
grade to another, the loss to the ir
dividual of the old books, or, a
least, of the difference between it
first cost and whatever sum tn

The Lead Market.

The Engineering and Mining Jour
nal of the 10Th inst. has this to say OF
the lead market: "A sale of 500 tons
of lead on speculative account is re-
ported at a private price. In addition
10 this several small lots have been
sold at AZ cents. at which price further
small quantities of Missouri lead are
still obtainable. Nearly all the avail
able lead is held at 5 cents or over.
The markets of China and Japan are
attracting the serious attention OF the
Pacific coast producers, and we'll they
may, for it Is reported that they "a
procure in those markets the euuiva-
lent of 5 cents in New York, while il
they were TO continue sending lead
here, as they were. ~ 4 cents would
hardly mark bottom. The shipments
of pig lead from England to the East
during the first nine months OF this
wear we're: To China. 10. 500 tons; and
tn Japan, l.43i tons; total, l2,433 tons.
indicating an annual demand of about
600 tons. If only one third IF this
business can he secured to the United
States, it will help our market very
materially, and the time will prot'a-
bly, come when we shall absorb the
whole Of this Asiatic market"

The San Francisco Stock Exchange
gives the following summary OF a case
lately determined in one of the Courts
of that city. That journal says:
A a s of considerable importance to
the mining public, involving the It'll
to one-tourth interest in the "White
Patent Furnace which is now rapidly
GINNING into use for hosting and chic
ridizing silver ores, was recently de-
cided by Judge Wheeler in The Nine
teenth District Court. The 6ction was
brought bv Jas. NJ. Thompson against
Geo. W. White to compel White TO
convey a one-quarter interest in the
patent for said furnace, aud decided nv
Judge Wheeler in favor Of the p'aiutiff.
On February 18th, 1873. Thompson
agreed TO loan White $1,000 to aid ia
erecting a furnace in this city, for
which White agreed to give his notes
and to pay them at the end Of sixteen
months, should Thompson not elect to
purchase n quarter interest In the
patents. but should Thompson elect to
purchase the interest, then the 81 600
to be loaned was to apply as a pay
ment on he purchase of the interest at
$1,000, the balsnce OF 1000 to be paid
out OF the first profits of the interest
Tor two years, or until they should
reach that amount. The facts shown
by the evidence, at the trial of the case,
showed very clearly that White pur-
posely kept out of the way when
Thompson was looking for him, to
tender his notes and demand his con
veyanre of the interest. n that he
had from the first intended, ii possible,
to avoid making the conveyance to
Thompson.
A peculiar feature of the patent law,
which we believe Is not generally
known, and which we will make
known for the benefit of our reider~,
WAS incidentally referred to by the
learned judge. which is, that joint
owners Of patent rights are not neces
sarily partners, and that each of them,
no matter how great or how small his
interest. has the right TO act indepen
IDENTIFY OF, and without accounting to
the other owners: and that purchasers
Of patented articles from a joint owner,
of however great or small an interest
In tine patent, have as full right to the
same a. purchasers from exclusive
owners of al entire patent would have.
