Il is rather odd to find bin before the
Legislature to alter the charter of the
School Board, of this city and cut down
the number Of its representative. The
people have notpetitioned for the passage
Of this bill, and it would seem to be time
enough to legislate the peoples right to
representation away whei they petition
for such change.

SOME ADDITIONAL PARTICULARS

SOME ADDITIONAL PARTICULARS.
The road has been constructed from the
Bedford station on the Concord line of rail
road TO the Lowell railroad at North Billerica,
IA distance of eight and n half mil,s. Two
thirds Of this distance is through country of
rocky lodges, yet the number of rock cuts is
very few, and only one formidable one has
been encountered. The scenery along the
route is very fine. The road passes near the
shores Of Sylvan lake, one of the most ro-
mantle and beautiful sheets of water in the
State At the Billerca station, near the COM
mCn, the IL uuntains Of New Hampshire are
visible. From Bedford to the Summit in
Billerica the grade is easy, reaching in the
steepest place so feet to the mile. The de
scent from the Summit TO North Billerica. q
miles distant, is easily made by grade of 10
feet to the mile, until reaching the plain be-
low. The engines will ascend much sleeper
grades than any on this road, as was clearly
shown on the narrow gauge railroad at the
centennial grounds Gt Philadelphia. That
road is three miles long, has several sharp
curves, and in some places has a grade of two
hundred and fifty feet to the mile, grade
which no engine on standard gauge can
overcome, As they are now constructed, The
cars on the Billerica a Bedford road are six
feet wide The diameter of the car wheels is
Is inches the journals are ! inches long and
q inches in dameter-thc same sizes as for
mcrly used on the broad gauges These sizes
for such lightweight rolling stock give much
greater strength and safety. Every car pas
senger, freight and excursion, is fitted with
the Miller platform and air-brake Besides
all this all the cars are provided with "a safety
chain, so that in case the connecting hooks on
the platform should by any means become I'M
hitched the chain would not allow the car
thus disconnected to become separated from
the train. As soon as the construction trains
can put the road in its best condition, it is in
tended to have a formal opening of the Bill
erica & Bedford railroad, when the pub
lie and the members of the press will have n
favorable opportunity to inspect and enjoy
the novelty of this diminutive but well pro-
portioned road and equipment. d. M.

PBoTEcTIoN FROM THIEVES. The interest
ing statement has recently been made, ON
good authority, that nine-tenths of the losses
by bank robberies fall upon special dopositors.
In referring to this fact, and to several recent
cases of such losses, the Boston Advertiser of
the 27th inst says;
Notwithstanding these repeated warnings
there is hardly a bank in New England whose
vaults are not numbered with trunks and par
GELS containing in some cases the entire wealth
of their owners. There was a reason for this
in former years when bank vaults furnished
the only protection, however imperfect, from
fire and thieves but now that in every large
city there are institutions especially devoted
to the safe keeping of valuables, there is no
good excuse for the heedlessness or the par
simony which prevents so many from avail
ing themselves of their protection. There
are three such institutions, as our readers
know, in Boston. 1t is, perhaps not so gen.
orally known that the vaults of the Boston
Safe Deposit and Trust Company are more
extensive and more massive than those of any
other institution in the country. Here for ten
dollars year or upwards, according to the
room required, a safe can be hired where a
mans property will be absolutely secure"

The PRESIDENT UPoN HIS POLICY. In
his speech at Cincinnati, the President in re-
forring to his course in the Southern States
said it was taken, not because it could not be
helped, but because it was wise and right
This is the true ground. The representation
of such action as an experiment in any other
sense than all human action is an experiment
is foolish. Is it supposed that, after some
months have passed, an investigation will be
undertaken TO ascertain whether il works
according to some unknown standard-and if
found to be working enthusiastically, that the
troops will be restored to the Columbia and
New Orleans State-houses, and Messrs. Cham
berlain and Packard replaced in their positions
of March ? Or is it in this sense an expert
ment, that if next year the condition of the
two States is not what somebody may think it
ought to be, the Republican conventions will
denounce the President as Mr.. Chamberlain
denounced him Mt Woodstock? The course
pursued in Louisiana and South Carolina was
an experiment as all measures of government
are experiments, but in no other sense. The
national authority can intervene in these
States only upon the conditions which would
authorize intervention in New York or Hi

TIE REAL CONDITION OF ALASKA, about
which there have been contradictory stories
of late is set forth in a Trustworthy official re-
port by Capt. White of the United States rev.
enue steamer Thomas COrwin, who has just
returned from there. During August and
September he joumeyed 800 miles through
various tribes, who are sober, friendly to
whites engaged in hunting, curing fish and
trading. Intercourse has increased their wants.
and trading has become necessity to them.
Canoes being their chief conveyance, their
sea-coast homes are at the mercy of an armed
ship, and they make no warlike show. At
Sitka quiet prevails, though drunkenness and
depravity are common. The government
buildings had not been kept in scrupulous
care and provisions must be made against the
lawlessness of traders and natives in pilfering
from them. Some civil head of the place
seems necessary for its peace and order, At
Wangel the mines are worked vigorously,
there being no particular disorder there. In
dians bring in liquor, and the traffic can hard
ly be checked MS things are now, Capt,
White reports the finding of abundant gold
on streams of the mainland. The local fish
cries. he thinks, warrant surveys, and the
protection of a government steamer, Van
couver's charts of 1892, with some corrections
by the Russians, are the latest in use,

Now maple trees their scarlet banners show;
And yonder hillside, covered DER with wood,
Has here and there tinRe Of crimson blood
From bending elms bright golden banners flow;
The chestnuts by the road sober row
OF brown caps stand, where bowery greenncss stood
All through the summer; and a sombre hood
Crowns the great oak. Where the round apples grow
To.perfect globes Of fragrant tart or sweet,
Crisp russet leaves hang down from boughs Of gray
And the wild ivy on the fences CLEANS
In radiant splendor and where willows meet
Above the brooks, shining silver spray
Amid their leaves reflects the suns bright beams.

The OUTLOOK FoE a NEW PoLITIcAL PARTY
From the letters of Mr. +. " Smalley, n
staff correspondent of the New York Tribune,
who accompanied the President upon his
Southern tour, we learn that there was good
deal Of talk here and there about the proba-
bihty of new party. 1t came from CON
servative men. who have acted with the De-
mocracy, and who think the Republican party
is divided into two elements, one desirous of
blotting out sectional lines and the other seek
ing to keep alive the old animostias of the
past TO them the Northern Democracy ap-
pears to be party so devoid of intelligence
and principle that they begin to be ashamed
of the association with it. Mr.. Smalley de
scribes the Southern Democracy of to-day as
having two elements which begin to Jar
against each other. and. sooner or later, must
fail apart. One is liberal and progressive.
the other bigoted and reactionary. One seeks
to bury the prejudices and passions of the
past, the other one to keep them alive. One
feels the glow of renewed sentiment of ma
tionality, the other wraps itself in sectional
ism and sits down amid the wreck of its hopes
and blows upon the fast expiring hatrods of
the way. On several occasions the President
was asked his views upon the question of a
new party but he modcstly declined an an
swer for the reason that he regarded the Pres
idental office as one which should be disasso-
ciated so far at least from party politics as
that its occupants should refrain from seek
ing to build up new organizations and destroy
old ones.

The effects of the Presidents policy are
already manifest. Confidence in business
circles has been restored. The different sec
tions of the country are no longer divided by
political issues. Wherever President Hayes
has gone he has found the best of temper and
good feeling existing. The absence of dis
turbing causes, which is essential to the re-
viyal of trade, is now recognized as existing
throughout the country, and the future pros
poets of business are more hopeful than they
have been for years firmly believe that we
are entering upon period of unexampled
prosperity under the administration of Presi-
dent Hayes" w II. Vanderbilt.

Mr.. Ruskin rises early and writes for three
hours before his guests are down. Breakfast
over, he retires to his study to answer numer-
Gus letters or complete some piece of untin-
ished work, or will go out on to the hill, per-
haps and make delicately finished study of
rock and grass for the engraver's hand to copy.
Between one and six o'clock the tourist in the
lakes may see slight figure dressed in a gray
frock-coat (Which the people round, ignorant
of Ascot, believe unique) and wearing the
bright blue tie so familiar to audiences at Ok
ford and elsewhere, walking about the quiet
lanes, sitting down by the harbor's side, or
rowing on the water The back is somewhat
bent, the light-brown hair straight and long,
the whiskers scarcely showing signs of eight
and-tifty summers numbered, and the specta-
tor need not be surprised at the determined
energy with which boat is brought to shore
or pushed out into the lake.
Sometimes friend breaks in on this peace
ful time. and is met with both hands out
stretched. while the gentle look in the clear
blue eyes and few low-voiced words give
him full assurance that ne is entirely well
come. To such the place is gladly shown !;
and walk is taken up the grass paths cut
through the woods, with seats placed where
the views are best to look out over mountain
and lake, and be taught, maybe, in the rich
colors and fleecy clouds, the utter rightness of
Turner; till ascending higher, an admiring
eye must be cast ON bit of rough ground red
with heather which, lying just beyond the
boundaries of Brentwood. the Professor
laughingly calls his ''Naboths vineyard.
The readers of "Fors Clavigera" find much
said by its author against the world but Mr.
Ruskin shows in his private life no lack of ca
pacity or inclinationto enjoy the world; he can
enjoy it, and, better still, makes others en-
joy it, His sensitive nature is singularly af-
fected by changes of weather, and bright
day makes him as joyful as dull one makes
him sad. But courtesy and kindness to those
around him are characteristics he never loses !;
insincerity is a fault of which he is thorough
ly devoid; and those who know HIM best de-
light in an unaffected simplicity of manner,
which in men of acknowledged genius is as
valuable as it is often rare.
