It is no exaggeration to say that the death of General Logan causes a deeper and truer general sorrow ad leaves a larger void to be fill ed in this country than could the decease of almost' any other mat my in. active life, fie was th greatest anti most successful of the iolunteer generals of the late war. and, far mora.Jlmn any genera) now living, the idol of the l nion -oldiers, throughout the nation, l ie was great as a statesman, great is an orator and great as a political leader. In his death millions of earnest republicans, including almost all of that party who wen soldiers in the late war, have lost the man whom fliey hoped to see called to lead them to a political victory in ISSB. -As a man and a citizen he Was kind, sympathetic, approachable, without the least trace of aristocratic exclusiveness, and, in a most eminent degree, incorruptibly honest. He dies re- - , retted by mostg-and respected—by all. Honor to his name and ; eacc tddiis6she& ~y\~

wyttn I'lnßfneTMfitvniaßwns*.' «*'■> The State Legislature will convene next Thursday. We publish this week a notably full and correct chronological table of the more important events of the present year. The table has ;-een prepared with great care and labor and will, we think, be found :.ot only interesting reading for the time being, but well worth}- of preservation for future reference. The question of the legality of the recent election of a Lieutenant Governor .was argued last week before the Supreme court, and that ti ibnnal will render Ihelfr decision next .week,, a day or two previous to UTe convening ~SF'tTe ■ Legislature. While no decision of the court, can convince us that right and iustice does not demand that Mr Pobertson be given the -ofiic" to which the people have elected him, nevertheless should they decide otherwise, we shall accept the rosuit of the decision, in good faith, and.believe that will be, the duty jsf ell. good' citizens to do the same, even though they believe the decision was the result of partisan prejudice. Our neighbor of the -Democ ratic - ‘itliiu’l is grieved and wrathful because Congressman Owen voted viththat very sensible mnbrny i . Congress which recently sat down hard upon the mischievious I o.u-riscn-Carlisle tariff revision scheme. Our neighbor, and all other free trade democrats, may just as well preserve their equanimity over Mr. Owen's vote, In this case. He was elected as an avowed and able advocate of the Protection principle and may be counted upon for a solid vote £ gainst the free trade measures of fire Morrison crowd, every time. He is in favor of a revision of the thrift, but not in such revision as ihe bitterest and blindest enemies of Protection have chosen to offer. •

Tis a strange co-incidence, in. deed, the fatality that has for tin* lad twenty-five years pursued all who have been connected, in any manner, with the presidential of-,, tics; either as Presidents, VicePresidents or as prominent candidates for either of those offices. Of all who have filled the presidential chair during that period, none nre now living except the present president and ex-I'resi-dent Hayes. Lincoln and Garfield jierished by the bullets of assassins, Johnson* Grant and Arthur by disease. Of the VicePresidents during that period, two, Johnson and Arthur, succeeded to the Presidency but are now dead; Colfax is dead, Wilson is dead, Hendricks is dead; Hand in still lives, in extreme old age, and Wheeler is alive also, but is a physical anil mental wreck. Among those who have been prominent but unsuccessful candidates for either of these offices, during this eventful quarter of a century, the fatality has been as remarkable, if not as tragical, as among their successful opponents. Douglas, McClellan, Seymour, Greeky, Tilden and Haucock, have all been gathered to their fathers, as have also the vice-presidential candidates, H. V. Johuson, Blair, Brown, Hendricks and*Logan. The strange co-incidence of the early death of all these great men, so soon after t ■ tr eonnevlie;! with the presidential offices, is marvellously strengthened by the remarkable circumstances attending the passing of most of them. Almost all of them have died either by violence, suddenly, or after very brief ami unexpected illnesses. ■ — ———t—;♦ - „

Ronśeiaer School Report for December

Total enrollment for the yenr ; 3rfi. Average thiiJv attendance for December, 306.99. Number gases 'of tardiness for I'lVi'inbcr, 1. Per cent, of altenihnrce for December, 95. L'qr tlie last two months the reiKd’iS have b en most excellent' veiy lit U-- -si, among Aha ]>apiis, ttiul,-lienee, very few days of absunce. Our - jaiport, -as—regards tin. iim-ss T i.-i excelled by no other school of the size of ours in the state, and in this one particulai ounsehools- can congratulate themselves. Punctuality and regularity in attendance are habits that all pupils should form. The business man, the lawyer, the teacher, all know tlie great importance of punctuality. The rule now in force in our schools to avoid tardiness is, if a pupil comes late flie teacher sends that pupil to tlie Superintendent'.room, where lie remains until recess, and at recess lie gives his excuse for being late to the Superintendent. No pupil is sent home, but some go home from choice. Ls the excuse given-is not satisfactory the SUp eri n ten dent communicates with the parent to ascertain the full reason, auml To see if some way cannot be devised to avoid further tardiness on the part of that pupil. The superintendent and teachers should have die co-operation of every parent sending his children to school, as the aim of the - school is-io . inculcate principles of regul.-u-ity and punctuality, cardinal principles that should be appreciated by every lover of order and promptness. Let eacli parent remember tliat.no pupil as sent home or denied the. privileges of the school 0n... account of tardiness; but the principle aim of the in sending pupils to the Superintendent’s room, is to avoid all cases of tardiness possible. We trust that no parent’s voice will be directed against this rule; that no parent will disapprove the rule, but we hope that all interested in having and maintaining a good school, with good principles, will assist and co-operate with us iu doing the best and most good possible for the children of Rensselaer.F.
