Hon. W. D. Washburn, member of con-
gress, has been appointed one of the COM
missioners to superintend arran gements in
their respective States for the Yorktown
centennial celebration next year. At q
meeting of the commissioners in Washing
ton it was resolved to ask the governors of
their respective States to take such meas
ures as will secure a sufficient appropria-
ton from their legislatures to enable their
States to take suitable part in the celebra-
ton. The surrender of Lord CORVALLIS
at Yorktown was the appomatox of the
revolution. and the centennial will undoub-
edly be celebrated in fitting style.

OFFICIAL returns from q great majority
of the states, and careful estimates for the
rest, place Gen. Garfeld's popular majority
over all at 1853, and his plurality over Gen.
Hancock at $4,000. The total popular vote
is over 5000, 900, an increase of nearly 9OO,-
600 since 1876. The above figures are
from republican sources, and it is proper to
say that democratic estimates give Gen.
Hancock small majority over all. Which
ever is correct, it is certain that on the pop
ular vote the last presidential election was
the closest ever known.

stigma upon inmates in after life and sug-
gest that it be changed to Minnesota Me-

Of which is to make the State instead of
counties responsible for the cost Of keeping
the inmates, by adding the same to the tax
list for the support Of charitable institu-

CURRENT TOPICS.

THE ways and means committee of the
House unanimously voted that the new re-
funding bill shall provide for three per cent.
bonds, instead of three and half. The
action of the committee is regarded as set

four per cents are selling at Sill, it is be-
heved the threes will be readily taken.

About forty pages of Mr.. Burt's report is de-
voted to remarks and recommendations, in
which the common schools and the system of
public education are defended at great length
from the criticisms which are sometimes made
upon their management. Mr. Burt defends the
normal schools, advocates his old scheme Of
having the State school tax apporioned on
scholars, instead Of in proportion to the amount
contributed by districts or counties; recommends
favorable high school legislation, and argues in
favor of liberal support to the State university.
The school book law is discussed at
length, and the superintendent's conclusions
are as follows:
From data of this kind it is evident that the
waste and loss in school districts, or at the ter
mination of the machinery of the law, are much
greater than the extra expense required of State
officials to set it in motion. 1t is not necessary
to attempt to estimate the per cent, that
must be added to the prices named in
the law to indicate the actual cost of the
books to the people. 1t is enough to say that
the law for the past two years has made school
books dear, rather than cheap, and we can
never realize any better result under the law.
Its native depravity exceeds the original sin in
the theology of Jonathan Edwards; depravity
innate, inherent, inseparable, incapable of re-
generation and sure to work out waste and loss
for which there can be no remedy while the law
remains in force

VERY little fegret is expr essed at the fail
ure of Aruold, the great coffee merchant of
New York. In combination with a Boston
party, which has since failed, he has en-
deavored to control the coffee trade of the
country-as the big gamblers at Chicago do
the pork trade-and has often arbitrarily
advanced the price of coffee three and four
cents a pocnd. Merchants were obliged to
submit to his terms, and they could never
tell what the price might be from one week
to another. The time is at hand when leg
islation will be imperatively demanded to
correct the evils attendant upon vast COM
binations of capital to forestai and-een
troll the markets of the country.

THE beautiful planet Venus takes the
place of honor among the starry hosts that
studs the December sky. This planet sets
now about quarter before Z o'clock. At
the end of the month, she will grace the
winter evening sky until about s, more than
three hours after sunset. Jupiter is evening
star, anda beautiful object in the sky, though
his waning glory forces him to yield the
starry sceptre to his fair rival. Jupiter sets
now at o'clock in the morning; at the end
of the month about midnight. Saturn is
about three degrees north of Jupiter and sets
an hour later. He sets now at about o'clock
in the morning, and at the end of the month
at one o'clock. Mars is morning star and
rises about quarter after o'clock; at the
end of the month at o'clock. Uranus is
morning star, and rises now about midnight,
and at the end of the month about 10. Mer
curry is morning star and rises now about a
quarter before o'clock; at the end of the
month about half-past 6. There are two
new moons in December, one on the 1st and
one on the 31st, and two ecipses, that on
the 31st being partially visible.
