To The Editor Of the National Republican:
SIR: l sec that the School Board have dis
agreed to the use Of "Gorr's Manual OH Good
Morals and Polite Manners" in which each
lesson is illustrated by anocdote, which ], for
one, consider most unfortunate, as tho book
now in usc is nothing more or less than the
story of Shakespcare's plays in prose and
robbed of its poetry. 1t abounds In stories of
seduction, and tells in plain naked English
many naughty performances that Shakespeare
only knew how to handsomely clothe in verse,
so as to make them good reading for man or
matron. But no parent wants his daughter,
at the age of fifteen or seventeen, to read such
book, much less to wrfto composition on it.
1t is to be hoped the board will yet reconsider.

The cipher investigation now in
progress in New York, under the au-
spices of the Potter subcommittee,
has as yet developed nothing that
can be considered unexpected or sur
prising. The testimony SO far adj
duced simply shows that President
Tilden knew nothing whatever, orig
inally, of the attempts made by a
number of his, perhaps too Jealous,
friends to induce the rascally mem
bers of the returning boards in the
three States in dispute to perform
their sworn duty; that he was after
wards informed that such attempts
were being made, and that on being
apprised of the facts, proceeded to
discountenance the proceeding in
the most decided and peremptory
manner. giving immediate directions
that the parties conducting it should
be ordered to cease their unauthor-
lied efforts OF once.

Der of signers to the petitions asking

curiosity, investigated the subject
and reports that there were 1876 pc
titions and memorials presented at
the last session, s~eventy-nine of
which were on the subject of selling
liquors, five demanded absolute pro-
hibition, ten asked for more string
ent laws regarding the sale of liquor,
twenty-three, signed by $500 per-
sons, asked for local option, twenty
nine, signed by about 1000 persons,
protested against any change in the
existing liquor laws, and two de-
manded laws SURPRISING saloons as
nuisances and for confscation of
their contents. This temperance
question is a troublesome one for our
legislators, and it makes but little
difference which party has the pow
err it is shirked. The time is COM

opposition speech. of Senator BEN
HILL. Blaine AID Edmunds expect.
ed to have a famous war with Hill
and other southern Senators, on the
project and had prepared themselves
accordingly. But when the talented
Georgian arose in his place and
made a stronger speech against the
bill than they intended to make
they were completely dumfounded

"Yes, l went down on State bust

transact. Among other things ]
went to see about getting paid for
the guns which the State of'Ohio
had in her possession at the close OF
the war. You see, we paid SIS Oh
$16 a piece for the guns, and when
the war closed we were allowed but
three dollars a piece for them. Now,
we want to see if we can't get the
difference between what we paid fol
them and what we were allowed, and
| think we will be successful"
