It is reported that Gov. Cu11oM will make
complete change IN the Board of Peniten-
tiary Commissioners. Without prejudice
against any member Of this Board individu-
ally. We can only approve such determine
ton in general if the Governor has actually
made up his mind to it. Indeed, we do
not well see how he can do otherwise, in The
face Of the unexplained evidence that tho
Penitentiary has been so managed under his
predecessor, who appointed the present
Board, that not only was profitable con-
tract on the State-House for the convict
labor turned over to a private contractor,
and the convict labor leased to him at
much less rate than the State was paying,
but also that the Board permitted this con-
tractor to get $40, 1000 in debt to the State
on account OF convict labor, while drawing
money from the State for his contract work.
The State moneys paid to this contractor
virtually passed through the hands of the
Penitentiary Board, since the original con-
tract was theirs, and no money could be
drawn upon it except through warrant OF
the Warden, SO there seems to be no excuse
for allowing the contractor to run $4,000
behind on his labor account. Under these
circumstances, Gov. Cu1LoM cannot well
reappoint the present Penitentiary Board
without indorsing aud assuming the mistakes
Of his predecessor.

States in its foreign dealings VII be notably
increased, and eventually fresh II eats Will DO
as prominent feature Of our foreign trade
us breadstutfs. For the people Of Great
Britain this supply Of fresh meats Mt prices
which will enable the 1aboring clesses to use
them almost as freely as tho 1aborlng classes
of our own country will prove an inestanfa-
bic blessing. Many Of the poorer classes,
especially OF Scotland and ireland, hnve not
been accustomed to fresh neat from one
years end to the other. Of course, the agrl-
cultural interests Of Great Britain will suffer
some embarrassment for q time from
the successful competition Of the Amerl-
can meats, but they will always be able
to command their prices for the choice meats
of their OWN rnisins, and, to the extent TINT
they are shut out from the general Market
they will turn their grazing lands into arabic
lands. The law Of supply and demand Will
soon rectify any disturbance that may be
occasioned in this respect, and the adVan-
tage Of cheap meats to the poor OF Great
Britain, and of new and profitable trade
for the agricultural classes Of America, will
be permanent. Chicago may look forward
with especial interest to the Development of
this new trade, for this city will be one
Of the chief benefciaries thereof; indeed, in
American commerce, an roads seem to lead

There is measure before the State Lcgis-
1ature providing that the assessment of real
estate for taxation shall be made every
fourth year, and Of personal property every
second year, instead Of annually, as ut pres
ent. We have no question that the quad
rennih valuation Of real estate would be a
great benefit to the State and to the public
Such law has bean in operation i'll Ohio
for sixty years. The revenue laws of that
State are perhaps more perfect than those
Of any other State in the Union. Such pro-
ceedings as ta1~fghting are never known,
and are hardly possible in that State. The
system is also economical Us compared with
ours. The State makes The assessment by
its own officers, and it is done thoroughly
and efficiently. It is rarely objected to. In
the off years the State assessment is amend
ed by the local assessments to the extent
of additional improvements to tho real
estate. The assessment of personal property,
however, is not that of permanent property,
like real estate, and should, therefore,
be made annually. Such property uadergoes
rapid changes, is easily moved away, and
