The city election resulted in the!elec-
ton Of the ticket nominated by the
Democratic convention and endorsed
by the Republicans. The question of
reimbursibg the city treasurer for the
money lost in the bank was decided in
the affirmative, and $500 was voted in
aid of the butter tub factory. While
both measures are unquestlonably IL
legal, there appears no disposition on
the part of any body to contest the ma t.
ter in the courts.
The Investigation by the grand jury
into the matter OF the defunct Bank of
Juneau, concluded here Friday, is said
to have revealed most astonishing
state OF affairs. The advertised capital
Of the bank was $4,000, but when it
was first opened the entire amount OF
currency on hand was only $500, and
this was brought here by the Bank ot
Hartford, another of Cooks concerns
and afterwards taken back. When the
bank closed it's doors on Friday after
noon there was less than $500 on hand
most of the balance Of the deposits,
some $4,000, being in Cooks hands in
Chicago. To persons familiar with the
affairs it is impossible to understand
how Cook will be able to clear himself
of the charge of illegal banking, but il
is strongly suspected here that the rea
| reason for the repeated continuance o-
and forfeit the 81 800 bail bond. Among
the witnesses examined by the grand
! jury was Cashier Richardson, who open.
ly told the jury all he knew about the
! affairs of the bank.

A well-to-do Yourouk would think himself disgraced had he less than six or seven wives, or, more properly speaking, six or seven slaves. These good ladies do not all occupy the same tent, nor even the same encampment, but are scat tered hither and thither with varied occu- pations. One wife minds the camels, two or three look after the focks in different pasturages; wife to spin and a wife to weave, Q wife to cook and wife to hew wood and draw water complete the proba- ble sum total of a Yourouk's harem. and, as hired labor is unknown among them, the multiplication of family ties is abso- Jutely necessary for advance in life.
 A poorly-clad Yourouk was very glad to earn few coppers by acting as our guide when we encamped at spot called Jam beslii, amid the rnined fortresses of pi- rate town built on the edge of a gorge. He was said to be very low indeed in the scale of humanity; and on inquiring found that he was only able to keep three wives, and I could see that the Yourouks eSIludte tue SOCIAL pOSlUlOn or tnelr uelSn- bors much as we do in England, by the number of servants they are able to keep.

Her only ornaments are l cowrie beads end brass bracelets; and the surprise evinced at seeing their wrinkled sin of vanity is unknown to them. Wher at the we'll fetching water, or at the stream humping their clothes between stones tc get them clean, they appear to have hard 1 ly anything on, and they are not ashamed l poor, bounded things, they have no caus, for shame.

A word or Two. NsS

NEW Ohh, uA1 1Co1.
 To the Editor of tho JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 The humorous snatching the "Fez" from visitors was probably enjoyed by the gentlemen of Yale," but probably not so much by those who have never been ac- customed to such actions on the part of persons calling themselves gentlemen and students of great university of learning. Several of the Shirners had their valuable "jewels" attached to their "Fez" upon the occasion of their recent visit to the City Films and of course when the "Fez" was stolen the jewels were lost also. It seems to me instead of some of the lectures on political economy and subjects of like character, few lectures by some of the learned professors or graduates of Yale on how to behave might have salutary effect on some of the undergraduates. Al any rate the actions were certainly not those of gentlemen and had they been committed by others than students would have been condemned as they deserved.
 Yrs. etc., A SHIRNER.

 The great topic of interest here is the failure of the Bunnell & Scranton bank, many of the people here having deposits in sums varying from fifty to two thous- and dollars. The failure of Edward S. Scranton & Co.,, few years ago, took about sixty thousand dollars out of the town, and it seems to be the general opinion that there is not much left of us.

 "The offer made by William R.

It is pro posed, if Mir. Shelton will give his consent to the scheme, to build suitable building to contain public museum, with room for public library and also 8 large hall, which is to be devoted to the purpose of free and open discussions of important questions of theology and moral principles. Those who are working in this matter are very enthusiastic and think the prospect of securing such an institution very good"
