SBABEcK, November 3, 1877

To THE EDITOR OF THE Dispatch:
I hope you will not think we are
imposing on your generosity in ask
ing you to give publicity to all our
little gossip, but quite a number OF
the boys were anxious for me to
write another letter for publication,
in relation to our school meeting.
Yesterday being the first Friday in
our regular school meeting was held
for the purpose of electing one di-
rector. The Rev. Rounds or DR..
Rounds, presiding, I don't know
which title the above named estima~
BILE gentleman assumes as q general
thing, whether it is D. D. or M. D.,
as we know that he practices both
professions. The meeting on the
whole was conducted in very order
ly manner, considering the large at
tendance, and the amount of interest
manifested on this occasion. The
constant chirpings of the little Joker
were very amusing, although not
particularly interesting, and the
mule, according to his natural in
stincts, could not help braying and
making an ass of himself. One of
the meeting wanted to know particu-
larly if the worthy chairman had
done all the law required of him as
a school director during his term of
Office, he replied that he had not as
heconsidered himself only a chipper,
but the most singular thing about
it is his reelection to office after
stating PUBLICLY that he was nothing
but clipper. Now we do not wish
to cast any unpleasant Institutions
on his constituents, but we think
after the Reverend gentlemans
statement that he was nothing but
clipper, that they subjected them
selves to the ridicule of the most
common observer, by re-electing him
again to Office. The actions Of the
directors were very closely question
ed from time to time by the clipper
crowd, whilst that of the clerk were
entirely ignored. From $500 to ST.
600 is quite a nice little sum to have
on hand year after year without pay
ing any interest. After an unusual
long debate the proceedings termin-
ated with vote of thanks to the di-
rectors, and as that reconisatiom did
not take place, Missouri is still
ahead, and our worthy pastor still
remains a clipper. C.

The wind storm of yesterday was
one of the severest of the season.
A number of large trees were blown
down, and no doubt the roads of the
county are more or less obstructed
by fallen timber.
IT is reported that the Olym-
pia people intend to purchase
the Eliza Anderson and put her
on the route between that city
and Victoria.

THERE are two classes of wit: One
sxcites instantaneous bursts OF merri-
ment, while the other, deep and impen-
strable. requires days. sometimes years.
to discover the precise locality of the
laugh. We are led to this conclusion
from being charged with obtuseness by
a man who was splitting his sides with
daughter over an editorial which ap-
peared in the morning paper. 1t must
be one of the deep sort. for We read it
over three times without discovering
the point. The whole joke hinges on
the scene of the Eastern conflict.

More OF Tweed's Testimony.

NEW York. sept. lS.-Tweed today
testified that $50 900 was paid the board
of aldermen for the confirmation of Pc
ter i. Sweeney rs city chamberlain. He
paid Thomas Conan, president OF the
board of alderman, fifty to sixty thousand
dollars to pass resolution directing the
comptroller to issue bonds for a million
and half for the Brooklyn bridge, of
which he was trustee and stakeholder.
In reply to the question whether he ever
suggested to any person to falsify the re-
suits of ballots he answered that he gave
instructions to that end to different men
who controlled the wards, but it would be
impossible to name them. Nearly all
connected with Tammany Hall from cigh.
teen sixty eight until the ring broke, had
more OF less to do with that business.
Regarding the reported meeting of the
board of audit Mt which claims amount
ing to millions of dollars were passed,
Tweed said the meeting was never held.
but the claims were paid Notwithstanding.
Tweed read paper relating to the career
Of John Morrissey, stating that he had
been indicted for assault with intent to
kill in 1S4S, at Troy, and in the following
year for burglary, and sentenced to Jail;
also that he served in the penitentiary for
several breaches of the peace. He had
been professional prize fighter and gam
bier. This paper was read in reply to a
criticism of Morrissey on Tweed. H.
vcstlgation adjourned to Friday.

O. The latest returns from til

81 The latest returns from the
special election in Stevens county,
according to the Union, is that the
contest is between James Monaghan,
Democrat, and D. f. Percival, Re-
publican. The vote so far as heard
from is about evenly divided, with
Okanagan precinct to heretofore.
That journal claims the election of
the Republican candidate because the
precinct mentioned lis controlled
by a man who hates Monaghan. !"
If personal likes or dislikes are to
sway political action, and that oman"
carries the vote in his pocket, prin-
ciples of course must go to the wall.

you referred. to, as to, whether there
should be poll.book and ballots for the
vote as to the location of the Capital,
separate from those as to the election OF
the shool officers.
We regard the action in the adoption
OF the Constitution as precedent on this
subject. But Independently OF that
authority, we think it clear that but one
set of poll-beoks and ballots need be
made. G. d. CAMDEN.

In the case OF the vote by which the
new Constitution was adopted, when
was taken at the time State officers were
elected, those who had charge of the
polls will remember that but one set OF
