As THE time is near when tbe term of the present City Council will expire, it is f" Jumper th»( a full rfport of its financial operations should be laid before the people. The taxpayers have a right, which the Council will, no doubt, respect, to be put in possession of a detailed statement o? the revenues, expenditures, indebtedness, etc etc./ of the city. This report should be given to the public in time for

full examination and discussion of it before the Ward elections. The taxes have been heavier, on a largely increased duplicate, than tliejjr were under the last Council. Whether money has been judiciously or not, remains for the Council to ahow. We shall not find fault without a full knowledge of the facts, and when the facts are made public, we propose to treat them with candor and fairness. Gentle men of the Council, are yon ready to give an account of your stewardship?

not deny that the Freedman's Bureau, which is about to be discontinued as a separate institution, has accomplished a good work in educating the freedmcn, and in promoting their interest and welfare. Good seed has been sown, and now that the colored people have the ballot, it will produce fruit worthy of its noble purposes. The last semi-annual report ot iheFreedman's schools shows an encouraging state of afliiirs. During the year 18G9, lhe schools have increased from 2 367 to 4,000 teachers from 7,840 to 8,'205, and pupils froui 181,19l to 210,072—an increase of 7.'W schools and 28,870 pupils. There are 36 High and Normal schools, with .",347 pupils who are fitting themselves for teaching. The bill disposing of the Freedmen's Bureau transfers the bounty and hospital work to the War Department, and the Educational Bureau to the Interior Department.

The Pall Mall Gazette on George Washington The

Patl Mail Gazette,

in an article on

Washington's birthday, sp*a»» as follows: American^ are striving to solve a great problem, and striving with insuperable energy and faith in their owp sneWess. They have, on the Vfhole, an ideal worthy of a great people and they pursue it steadily, though with innumerable blunders and backsliding, and with a fearful evolution of bombastic nonsense. They are not dead to patriotic impulses or to a belief in the ultimate triumph of truth and justice. On the fconlrary, they were never more alive to great ideas only.^ it must fie confessed that their worst enemies are the flatterers who persuade them that they can afford to do without certain ancient principles which have been found necessary among older nations. All kinds of impostors, religion*, political and literary, have a splendid chance among them, and make their existance unpleasantly conspieious but at the bottom there is a substratum of some sense and honest belief in the sound principles, -which will Ultimately prevail. At present they are in a state of nnparalled fermentation, and the confusion is mightily increased b} the stream of ignorance and: poverty poured into them from the overflowance of the Old World but there is no reason to doubt that they will ultimately clear themselves of the scum which is now at the Surface, and come out from their trouble as a great nation, jiistifying, though in unexpected forms, the hopes which philanthropists have entertained of their success. The future is hidden from us but there is far more reason for hope than for fear even in the midst of the corruption and the cant by which the superficial stratum of their politics is still disfigured. What Washington would think of this we know not.

He was a man of limited views in spite of his moral greatness, and we fear in some respects not very bright or wise. But certainly he would be astonished when he compared the modest beginnings of the great Republic with the marvelous scenes in which elements of good and evil are mixed in so intricate and unprecedented a fashion. The simplest moral is that a ghost does better in hisown place, so long as he keeps clear of tables and perhaps, too, that it would be no bad thing if som^ of the dead who still persistently affect to be alive among us, would retire from scenes which they comprehend as little as Washington himself could do were he to reappear.

bitterly remarks that

We cannot explain how the thing hap pened other than appears from the figure? The election was characterized by an amount of "scratching" unknown to pre vious contests. In some instances the Re publican candidates for council were '.'scratched" by Germans, on the ground that they were temperance men, and in other wards, temperance men "scratched" the Republican candidates because they were saloon-keepers. On the other hand the Democrats, having religious or moral scruples of any kind on these questions, voted the "straight ticket,:', and were, consequently, successful. Wft think many Republicans, on the morning after the election, were heartily ashamec of their folly—not to call it stupidity-^ and that were the election to be held over again the result would be very different, As it is, however, the lesson will prove valuable in deciding the elections this Fall for Republicans, by that time, will not fail to see that liberality must be exercised towards each other, if they do not desire to hand over the county, as they have the city, to the tender mercies of unscrupulous politicians and citizens who have but a small interest in the city, other than as they may be able to speculate on its financial difficulties.

Charles Dickens's Farewell Reading Mr. Dickens's final "Beadingv was given at St. James's Hall, London, on the evening of the loth ult. The pieces selected were "The Christmas Carol" and the "Trial from Pickwick." At the end of the reading Mr. Dickens said: "Ladies and Gentleman.—It would be worse than idle, for.it would be hypocritical and unfeeling, if I were to disguise that I close this episode in my life with feeling of very considerable pain. For some fifteen years, in this hall and i'h many "kindred places, '.I have had the honor of presenting my own chrished ideas before you for your recognition, and in closely observing your reception of them, have enjoyed an amount of artistic delight and instruction which perhaps if is given to few men to know. "In this task, and in every' other I have ever undertaken as a faithful servant of the public, alwa.^ imbued with a sense of dutv to them, and always striving to do his "best, I have been uinformly cheered bv the readiest response, the most gener oils sympathy, and the most stimulating support. Nevertheless, I have thought it well at the full flood-tide of your favor to retire upon those older associations between us which date from much further back than these, and henceforth to devote myself exclusively to the art that first brought us together. Ladies and gentlemen in but two short weeks from this time 1 hope that you may enter, in your own homes, on a new series of readings at which my assistance will be indispensable, but from these garish lights I vanish now forevermore, with one heartfelt, grateful, respectful, and affectionate farewell."

From the St. Louis Democrat.) it is pleasant to hear the eloquent congratulations of Wendell Phillips over the adoption of the Fifteenth Amendment. It is also pleasant to discover that he is man enough to acknowledge that he slandered General Grant most outrageously. Xo man in the nation deserving the name of loyal has uttered more bitter a re id a has this same Mr. Phillips, who now con fesses that all honor is tiue to Grant for pushing the'Amendment to adoption. No man was more malignantly abusive when the President urged the speedy admission of Virginia and other States, and he even went so far as to imply that the President meant to betray the country, permit the Amendment to be defeated, and sacrifice the colored people—though the very measures which ({rant then urged wore, necessary to bring about the adoption of the Amendment. It is pleasant, therelore, to find that Mr. Phillips has discovered his mistake and has had the courage to do justice to the President whom he has so |ersi3tently assailed. Not because Grant needs "his compliments, but because Grant needs his compliments, but because one hates to think that service so faithful as his has not made any impression on the mind of a man like Phil-

Nearly Done For,

From the St. Paul Dispatph, April 0.] Wm, Bfwfn, tf'ho is in our county jail on charge of aiding and abetting John Baxter injthejmurderous assault on Denis Flavin, is placed in a cell with a man named Stephens, who is awaiting his trial on a charge of being the unlawful possessor of three wives.

Last evening, between 8 and 9 o'clock Sheriff Grace who was sitting in his office writing, heard shouting and cnes of murder, but could not immediately determine the locality. The cries evidently were in the immediate vicinity, and he supposed it was'some parties who had erot drunk and were quarrelling over the election: Acting on thiB idea he proceed ed to the front door and found all there as quiet as a meeting house. Recollecting that the Deputy Sheriff had just gone out for a few moments, he concluded that the noise, whatever it was, must be in the jail. Quickly unlocking the doors he found that the cries proceeded from the cell in which Brown and Stephens were confined.

On opening the dooi of the cell the place presented a shocking appearance—both prisoners were covered with blood, and every article in the room was ^smashed to pieces:

As soon as Stephens could speak—for he was, terrible frightened, as well a« much bruised and cut, he

who has been laboring under deli rum since his imprisonment, got furiously mad and commenced an -indiscriminate onslaught on him and All the furniture in the cell, and would haveuhdoubtedlv killed him if it had not been for the opportune arrival of Mr. Grace.

Brown also seriously injured himself by dashing his head against the walls, lie was placed in irons and his injuries attended to. Stephens proved to hava been more frightened than hurt. He received some brnises and "scratches but no serious injury.

Fitz-John Porter.

General Porter is making a great effort to get his case heard again by a court a re re on earnest feelings which influenced all army officers and patriotic men during the war. The case does not deserve to be so considered. The same imminent peril which rikfcnaced the country. Mid housed in every honest heart swift indignation against those who failed to do their duty, should also have made every honest man more zealous in the performance of duty, and more ready to throw aside all personal prejudices. In theligh of thatsamo emergency Fitz-Jbhn Porter acted, and the country judged. The feeling which swifity a so a re a it a mpossible for him to lie idle within so .nd of loyal guns and suffer a loyal a rim .i cut to pieces. The excuses \vhi- tu:iy_j seem plausible enough now seemed almst-d then, because tie obstacles whjcli may now appear considerable Would then have seemed ooth Lngtaiupr hbttSft ?ohUer flying to the relief of iui|erilled comrades.-
