QUITE A NUMBER Of American cit
liens are languishing in Mexican pris.
ons who have been placed there quite
rs unjustly as Americans have been
thrust into prison in England. 1t
might be well enough for Americans
to include these Mexican suspects in
their bills ofresolutions adopted here
and there respecting similar cases in
ireland. But then these men in Mex
lean prisons are not Irishmen, and
cannot control many votes at elec.
tions. That mas es O. difference.

COUNCILMAN PAINTER was remark
ably quick on the trigger last night,
when lie moved that Col. Taylor who
was in the chair, cast the vote OF the
Council for the re election of theBoard of
Health which has served so faithfully
and efficiently during the last year.
The Fourth Ward member has bean in
Council long time but he knows more
about water than he does about parlia-
mentary usages and hs never stopped
to think that nominations were requir
ed, and before the vote of the Council
was cast there had to be somebody to
cast it for. Thus in his Lasto to gain u
little credit for the Democratic side of
Council, he lost all, for after the nomi-
nations were made, Mr.. Bailey, Re
publican mem Der, by his motion gave
Col. Taylor the authority to cast the
solid vote of Council for the reelection
of the Board of Health.

Noelset Of jefferson.

We have heard a great deal lately,
rs sort of revival screed, of Jetter-
sonian Democracy, and 1t is conse.
quently with no little astonishment
that we peruse reports Of the death OF
an alleged colored son of the reputed
parent of the Declaration of Indepan-
dence. As the story runs, Robert JET
terson, who recently died at Indian
apolis, was born in slavery on the plan
tation of Mr.. Cb. istisn at Charlestown,
Va, and remsined a slave till 1852,
when at the age of forty-nine he pur-
chased his own freedom and that Of his
wife with the earnings of odd hours at
carpenter work. 1t is very funny, but
it is nevertheless fact, that maay of
those who start out to tree q whole
people neglect the small opportunities
to liberate isolated individuals. Thomas
Jefferson appears to be one of the many.

Candidates for the School Board /.
Unless there are number of candi-
dates for election to the Board of Edu-
cation te-day kept under cover and ~
the last moment sprung upon the un-
suspecting people, there cannot fall to
be marked improvement in the make
up of the Board from amongst those
who are placed in nomination publicly
announced. So far as is known there
is no opposition to the election of II.
d. Hickman, Fourth ward; N. Il. Ben
son, Jr., Fifth ward; 8. j. Wiley,
Sixth ward; James II. Hotfecker, Jr.,
Seventh ward and DR.. Read j. Mckay.
Tenth ward. In the First ward, Frank
W. Reeve and Harry Emmons, Esq,
are candidates and either would make
q good member. David A. Powell and
DR.. Harvey C. kemble are candidates,
in the Second ward, both creditable
gentlemen and either would fill the
office with ability.
Mr.. Fueckel is candidate for re
election In the Third Ward and is op-
posed BY Edward Mitchell young gen
tlaman Of ability. Mr.. Foecksl made a
very good member Of the Board and
should Mr.. Mitchell! be elected he will
serve with equal ability at least. In
,he Eighth Ward DR.. Keables find
himself opposed by Hickman, Sparks,
and Thomas Denney. The election of
either would be an improvement from
hat ward. In the Ninth Ward John
Brooks is a candidate for reelection
md is opposed by Pancoas% Allen who
S endorsed by the High School Alumni
which is a test of his fitness for the
,ffice. In the Eleventh Ward Jacob
