NASHVILLE is agitating the cent
question. The smallest coin in circula-
ton in that city is the 5-cent piece,
and shopkeepers are beginning to see
the folly of keeping out the once de-
spised cent. One dry-goods merchant
estimates his losses at 81 to So day on
account of failure to make exact
change. Another merchant is going to
use postal cards in making change if
the cents do not come into favor. A
retail dealer has ordered 800 worth of
cents from this city, and proposes to
start the reform at once.

THERE is in Atlanta young man
who may be said to have in a measure
married himself. His bride is
a Swede, and unable to speak English.
The American clergyman could not
speak any tongue but his own. There
was doubt how the ceremony would
end almost as soon as it began, but this
was removed by the bridegroom, who
acted as interpreter, put the questions,
made the responses, and declared the
marriage ceremony performed.

ton on the part of the office July was 500,
an Increase OF 80 per cent over 1852. The
Commissioner says the business Of the office
Is steadily and rapidly increasing in each OF
the divisions OF the Office The success Of
the patent system, the Commissioner says Is
due largely TO its liberalty to inventors and
the security and protection it affords them.
1t was not intended that revenue to the Gov
Tor vesting In the inventor the right and title
for limited time to the exclusive use OF his
invention But not only have the fees re-
ceived on applications fled been sufficient
to pay all the expenses of the office, but o
large surplus-nearly g., SEQ 00O-now stand
to the credit Of the office in the Treasury.
Greater hberality might, perhaps. be ex-
tended to the inventor by reducing the fee
to be paid before q patent can issue, and
with beneficial results. Certainly more
equitable rate of fees could be adopted
than Is now provided by graduating the fee
TO the character and nature OF the invention
The fees now required in some cases are ex-
cessive and in Others exceedingly small In
this way, rather than by an indiscriminate
reduction in the fees now charged, as is
urged by some. justice would be secured,
and the office still be self-supporting
Attention is called to the fact that largo
number OF Examiners and Assistant Exam
liners have resigned during the last year
The commissioner assigns as the principal
reason for these designations the insuffici-
ency OF the salaries allowed, and says the
office feels the loss of such experienced men
more than any other bureau. He adds:
"The same reason, substantially, which re-
quires an increase in the force of the offices
In order th4 the work may be promptly
and efficiently done, exist for urging proper
salaries for securing the most efficient men
for doing this class of work" The report
recommends that Congress confer upon the
Commissioner authority to institute pro-
ceedings to determine the question of the
public use or sale of an invention. The at
tention of Con lress is again called to the
necessity for amending the statutes relating
to the issue of foreign patents, either by
granting the patent for a definite term,
where the invention has first been patented
in foreign country or countries without
any conditions subsequent, or by granting
IL for the full term or seventeen years from
the date of the earliest foreign patent

OUR PUBLIC SCHOOL.

Our public school, which is I'M
der the direction Of Miss. Mary
E. Post and which was commenc
ed again on Oct. s., begins tc
flourish, the school now numbers
nearly fifty scholars. Miss Post,
has applied for an assistant teach
er, as the number Of herlsch GLARS
is daily increasing. This is as
it should be, as the number Of
scholars will every day increase
and as the days are diminishing
in length, one single teacher can
not render proper and sufficient
service, and instructions to such
a number of children. Our taxes
are in part collected for the bene-
fit of schools, and it is but just
that when we have a sufficient
school fund on hand, to foster our
public schools. Let the trustees
comply with the demand which
would be a just and proper thing.

THE YUMA INDIANS.

Indian agent Clark, of the Col
oradO River Reservation has re-
Gently received. letter from the
Interior Department at Wash
1ngton, concerning the Yuma In
dams and their res ervatIon re-
Gently located on the ella river
and the location of which, we
have mentioned !. in a former IS
sue. The Interior Department
proposes to have the Indians to
construct an irrigating ditch
and the department will furnish
engineers, surveyors, provisions
and all material needed by the
Indians provided they agree to do
the work on the ditch. We have
always spoken in advocacy of
these Yuma Indians, aud if is
nothing but just that the Govern
ment should at this late date re-
spect their rights. There NAV be-
lew Yumas, who may be opposed
to their removal, but the main
Chief Pasqual says that they will
be contented with the will OF the
Government in their removal
from their old home, if it will ex-
tend to them its usual generous
aid which has always been extern
oed to other Indian tribes. This
demand is but just on part of Pas
quail. In times of trouble the
4umas were allies and friends of
the whites, and it is but right
and just that in the waning and
almost last days IF the long neq-
lected people, the Government
should provide for them. Much
credit is due to Senator Miller of
California, for his prompt atten-
ton, to petitions forwarded to
him in behalf of the Yumas. We
expect yet ;to see good results
from this movement.

GOV. TRITLE'S REPORT.

We have read the condensed
report of Governor Tritle of our
Territory to the Interior Depart
ment at Washington, in relation
to everything concerning Ari-
iona, that he has applied him
self to his duties and has been
subserVient to the wants of our
people. Gov. Tritle, has gone
farther, while in his recreation,
he has gone East encouraged and
brought into theEterritory capt.
talists and capital, and is him
self one of our most efficient wor-
kers for the advancement of our
territorial resources.
He gives a proper view as to
what should befdone in the In
dian question, which has already
become a complexed one; his
views are well timed, suggestive
and should be carried out, that is
the Chiricahuas should be treated
as hoStiles by both army and
citizens, one of the most impor-
taDt features and suggestive
made by the Governor is, that
the 10th, and 18th, sections of
every Township of public lands
should be by an act of gCongress
extended to this territory, for
educa tiOnal purposes. We have
for two years advanced shis and
had hoped that our delegate in
Congress would have given this
his prompt and first attention.
We are pleased to see the Gov
ernor acting and taking an inter-
est in securing for this territory
the 18th, aud S6th, Sections of all
townships for school purposes. In
every territory but Arizona, this
grant has been extended.

Now that the Yellow fever
scourge is passing away in Sonora
and little or no possibility re-
mains of its present appearance
in this Territory, 1T would be
we'll still to bear in mind for the
future. To that extent we quote
from authority the result of GER
tain Investigations had as to the
breeding places Of the Yellow
fever" viz:
A handful of earth was taken
rom a foot beneath the surface
of a grave in which was inferred
the remains of a person who had
died with the yellow fever
year before. There was nothing
in its external appearance, or any
odor, to render it remarkable in
any manner; but upon subjecting
a small quantity to microscope
of 740 diameters myriads of mic
rObites were found, identical to
those discovered in an examina-
ton sof the vomit. urine, blood
and other organtic liquids of
persons attacked with yellow fe-
yer. The germs Of yellow fever
are perpetuated IN the eemete
ries, which become so many adj
ditional bleeding places for new
generations, destined to devast-
ate our cities. Travelling through
the pores of the earth, these
germs are dispersed through
the atmosphere, and by heavy
rains carried into congenial pla-
ces for evolution, and open the
way to the production of epidem-
les. In the silence Of death this
world of organisms, invisible to
the nakedseye, labors incessantly
to fill new graves withhold for
the fatal perpeiuation of its
species. The radical remedy is
