CITY Politics.

The result of the Republican city eau
Gus, it is unnecessary to say, was highly
satisfactory to the party in general, as
well as to the friends of the successful
candidates. Mr.. Woodbury's election, of
course, is IA foregone conclusion, and we
congratulate the friends of progress, good
order and economy in municipal affairs
upon his continued occupancy of the office
of mayor. The contest ON the city Judge
ship was Il sharp one, and the friends of
both candidates did some very effective
work. Mr.. Russel's friends gave him IA
handsome support, and one of which any
candidate for a city office might be proud.
Mr.. Peck was fairly nominated, and, of
course, all Republicans will turn in now
and give him the united and hearty sup
port of the party. This is the only way to
avoid heartburnings and trouble in the
future. Mr.. Russell's turn, undoubtedly,
will come in good time and until then his
friends should cordially and unreservedy
give their support to the regular nominee
of the party. We trust that entire har-
mony will prevail, aud that the Republi-
cans WILL as usual, carry the day hand
somely.

Beekmantown, n. Y, Feb. 10, So

OF course there may be cases in which
a worthless town committee gives the
town poor schools. In any town which
would keep such a committee in office,
the majority of the people must care little
for the schools, and they would elect
worthless district committees, under the
district system. As general rule, intel
ligent and unprejudiced observers, who
have watched both systems, give the town
system the preference. The increased inn
portance and responsibility of the school
board, under the town system, secures
greater attention to, and more faithful dis
charge of the duties. There will as II rule
be a far higher average of intelligence and
efficiency in the town boards than in the
district committees, and the schools I'M
der that system are cared for, while an
der the old system, rs everybody knows,
they are in multitudeS of cases grossly ne
elected. No system works perfectly, i'll HUI
man affairs. The question is which, on the
whole, and in the long run, will give the
best results. The tOlCn system, say the
wisest friends of education in many
States. The district system has not work
ed satisfactorily III hundreds of cases.
Why not then give the other system at
least fair trial ?

Wool Market.

nosroN. Oct. 2.-The wool market
"a tirmer this week than last. The
nrices IN the same grades are higher.
The sales again have been of enormous
nronortions, amounting for the week to
sO49. 100 pounds, foreign and domes-
hc. There have been large mum Der of
manufacturers in the market. They
,upplied their wants freely. We may
look for quieter market soon, as4nany
manufacturers have become pretty well
mpplied, but we look for no easing off
in prices aud rather for higher prices
in the future. A number of dealers
nredict that Ohio wool will soon reach
l0c. Many are firm in the belief that
45c. will bs reached before many
months. Both the foreign aud interior
markets continue finn and an advanc
ing. bouyant tone is heard on every
hand. California wool is quite active,
and was held rather frmer. The sales
have been IN the range of 1Sc to 2419c
for spring, good lots selling at 24@
2415c. 4 lot Of $4,000 pounds fall
sold en- private terms. The sales in
clude 10000 pounds spring at 1870 19c ;
$4,000 pounds at 24m241kc; $4,000
pounds at 1870 24c; and 5000 pounds
at private terms. In Oregon wool
there have been sales of 100. 900 on pri-
vate terms. The receipts of the week
have bsen 7,347 bales domestic and
S62 bales foreign. against S.751 bales
domestic and 1850 bales foreign Tor

New One Dollar silver Certificates.

The United States Treasurer has
issued the following notice in regard
to the new 81 silver certificates:
Owing Ia the great demand for
other denominations of notes the
Treasurer of the United States is un-
able to supply 81 notes except in
small amounts. In order TO satisfy as
far as possible the public demands, il
has been decided Ia furnish from this
office these in sums Of $1,000 10 each
bank making application aud at the
same time dep"siting that sum with
the Assistant Treasurer at New York.
Upon receipt Of the certificate Of de-
posit like sum will he forwarded at
the expense Of the banks making APP
plication. In order To effect az equi-
table distribution. as far as possible,
applicants will obtain these notes in
the order in which the deposits
are made at the Sub Treasury in New
York. No second application will he
granted until the supply of notes is
equal to all the current demands.
The maximum amount of these certi-
ficatcs that the Treasury can furnish
daily will not exceed $4,000, and it
IS suggested by the Acting Treasurer
that II will be we'll for banks TO ascer-
tain from their New York cores
pondents the probable time when
they will receive shipments.

Killed by Coyotes.

The Range and Valley of Mountain
Home relates the following strange
Incident: We have been very reliably
informed by parties down from there,
that few days ago James Burnett, a
farmer on the Malad, sent three of his
little children (the eldest of them was
l2 years. out to watch the garden and
protect it from rabbits, when coyotes
made raid upon them. Two of the
little ones were killed, the two young
est, and merely by miracle did the
other one escape the same death. This
lscertainly an unusual occurrence. We
have known coyotes, in passion of
hunger, to approach within few feet
ofpersons, but have never before heard
ofthcm making the attack. However,
1t is evidently true and will serve as a
