This is to certify that was acting as far
mer tor the Institution ut the time the new
management took charge, on the LIST day OF
July and that the crops of corn and vegeta-
bles upon the premises were in very back
ward condition at that time, caused by neglect
TO properly work the same, and that farming
and garden implements, such as hoes, plows,
rakes, axes, mattocks &C., were greatly need
ed, and that the new Steward was called upon
by myself and other workmen on the prem
ses, to furnish such articles, which he prompt
ly did. | would further say that the general
condition of the place was very much neg
ted up to July LIST.

The anomalous condition of municipal af-
fairs at Petersburg, Va has become still more
complicated by reason OF an unexpected move
made by Major Branch, the Readjuster Super
intendent OF Public Schools. At it's annual
meeting Wednesday afternoon, after the Board
had elected Andrew Kevan rs President and
William T. Spotswood as Vice President, Ma
jor Branch WAS called on for his report, when
he refused to recognize the Board on the
ground that it was not a legally constituted
body. None of the memyers having ever quail
flied, Major Branch was requested to admins
ter the oath of office to the members of the
Board, and refused to do so. The law requires
the members of the Board to be sworn into
office within sixty days after election. AL
though the Board has been organized over
fourteen years, none of the members have eyer
qualified, being ignorant Of the fact that it was
necessary to do SO. After the City Superin-
tendent's refusal the School Board was sworn
into office by ]. M. Peasants, the Democratic
or Funder Justice OF the Peace. The Board
which is composed mostly but not entirely OF
Funders, on being sworn into office adjourned
until Thursday without transacting further
business.

The Temperance party Of Nebraska expects

At the Iowa Republican caucus at Des

The Legislature of New Jersey convened
yesterday. The senate organized by elect
ing Garret A. Hobart president and George
Wults secretary. The governors message
was read after which the senate took q re.
cess to await the organization of the house.
In that body there was a deadlock, growing
out of the refusal of two members from
Hudson County, Messrs. Clark and Me-
Iaughlin, who refused TO vote for speaker.
The former clerk who has charge OF the
house until organized, refused to surrender,
and in the midst of great confusion the
house adjourned. GOV. Ludlow says in his
message the comptroller estimates the oX-
penditures of the coming year at 81 10000
AN excess over his estimate Of the receipts
for the year and the available bank balance

the caucus without result. The committee

Few people have AN idea OF the prodi-
pious amount Of work which persons am
bilious of figuring in the musical world as
professionals have to perform t0 I'D them
selves. The Duke Of Edinburgh recently
called attention 70 the severity Of the train
ing. A student of the ROYAL Academy OF
Music is expected 10 attend for lessons daily
in both theory and practice. He is eX-
pectcd TO practice for nve or six hours a
day on the Instrument, whether violin or
piano, which he chooses as his own. That
is not all, Every student is bound to have
two instruments, aud the second instru-
ment he is expected TO play for one hour a
day. Seven hours per diem are, in fact, to
be- devoted TO mechanical exercise. Two
other hours are required for protessorial
tuition; and il a student wishes to know
something besides music, he has to find
time, amid concerts and ordinary duties,
for reading and study which most other
people have plenty OF opportunity for.
