These who approve or pass lightly ever the tendency indulged in by ceuncllmeu, from whom the taxpayers have a rljiht le expect better thlnga, te draw upon the appropriations of the next fiscal year te tneet the expenses of this year, will de well te hike wimilug from the exemplary experience of this city during the yents 1871-78. During Unit time the total Increase in this fund, es tablished by law te liquidate the muni cipal indebtedness, was net equal te the interest en the balance in the fund at the beginning of this period. The amount in the sinking fund June 1, 1S71 was 388,163 00. Had even the Interest en this been faithfully applied and rein vested annually Us total, without further additions, by 187S would have amounted te $111,205.00, whereas there was really only $09,258.00 In it, or $12,037 less than the amount te which the interest ac count Bheuld have swelled It. At the time of Mayer MncGonlgle's induction into ofllce tliere was no money in the city treasury te buy bends for the sink ing fund and none available for this purpese until after June 1, 1S7S. This, tee, In spite of the ordinance which de clares that it shall be the duty of the flnance committee " te direct the invest ment in the bends constituting the funded debt of the city, of nil npprepria tieus thnt are new or hereafter shall be made te the sinking fund, ami also the interest accruing upon mmicjs new held."

This has been dune only by holding the financial management of the city te the plain direction of the law. It the policy advocated by the chairman of the finance committee who, by the way, was also chairman in 1S70, '77 and '7S, shall pre vail If one appropriation shall b robbed te swell another and the dtflciencies caused bv extraordinary excuses this year are te anticipate next year's rev enues, the siiikiujj fund will be again attenuated and the city will be again plunged into such financial embirr.iss ment as In lbTS made it necessary te add $30,000 te the permanent debt, te meet deficiencies inclined by a wasteful and reckless street cemmitter". with upraised cowhlde and her forcible entry In the domicile of her female fee, with her men folk about her.

Tub Republicans of the Heuse were willing te support Keifer for speaker, but they were unanimously unwilling te recognize him ns their leader en the tloer The Xew Yerk 7iif thinks their position Inconsistent ; and se it would be if they had sincerely presented Keifer as their choice for shaker. Their present lepudlatlen of him shows their real opinion of him, and demensltates the Insincerity of the support which they a few days age cave him for the chief etlhe in the Heuse. If they could have elected htm they would net have voted for him. They should net have voted fei him even in a hopeless contest If they had had a proper self respect. The duty of repudiating him, which is new upon them, would have been much mere easily accomplished if they had net se lately given him se high an endorsement, even though they did net really mean te approve him. It is net a geed thing for constituents te catch their representatives in any such ganus of gammon. Te call upon Re publican voters te regard Keifer as a worthy candidate for the speakership, hut te condemn him as an unworthy leader en the lloei Is asking their party members te leap about and turn about and jump Jim Crew in a wnj which isappioprlate te the season only In the view that it-publican voters nre all children.

Kven at the best figures jet offered by the elec tric light ceinpauies the price of their system seems te be inordinate in com parisen with the actual coat of it. Cel Gke. W.

He has, however, pe f.ir sue C 'eded by such methods as te drive evt ry ether competitor from the Held, and the extreme Reformers and the obnoxious bjsjes are uH.e embarrassed ever tlie situation. Neither faction wants him ; they cannot mi. tc en any one te defeat him ui.d his nomination new beetns likely Mr. Thompson, who was the Btrengest candidate te run against him, has wltbdi.iwn from the nine, apparent ly because ilnse who were lucking him would net consent te put Jehn Hunr, f r receiver of luvs ou the ticket with him. Then suit is a general bresk up among tin It 'publicans of Philadelphia ; and a very much brighter prespt ct for the Democrats of that city if th" will seusihly avail themselves of it.

Mel'omsey said If ue fur ther action were taken by thu b urd, he would glve the matter his own personal attention and sen that the teachers did their duty, or It they did net be would promptly report them te the bend Mr. Blayinaker was sorry te sav that he could net agree with the ehiilrman of the superintending oimmittee Thu trouble with these teachers Is of long standing. It had been found uecusnaiy te romevo both of them from soheiN in which they formerly taught, and wherever they went there was trouble. Finally they were placed togelhar en the principle that it was a pity te spoil two school houcei with thorn. Their quirrels wero renewed and became se bad that the cuhoel became the laughing stock of the neighborhood. On Friday ,tl Mr. Slaymaker snd he hid visited the school in company with the superintending committee and ethers, and the exhibition was Bitnidy disgusting. The teachers would netevni speak te each and the chairman of the superintending committee who uew asks for delay had s.nd "there is no salvation for them ; they must go." The superintending committee has had the matter iu charge f T three month, has done nothing, and Mr. Haymaker felt it te be his duty te bring the tuattet again te the attention of the beatd. Dr llmr said le had steed by t'.cse ladies for a long titue ; had spout hours with them iu endeavoring le reconcile their dillereuces ; but he had found thuin always at swords points.

Ou u i ilut of order raised by Mr. Rrewn the chair niled Mr. Slayrnaker's resolution out of erdur a at vaiiauce wit'i the rubs of the beard. Mr. Rrewn plead Iei delay.

If the treublj has bueu se bad as ropeited, aud the beard has cuduied it for se lern: a peried, no great harm can be detiu in post pest nniiinc action. Dr. Carpjntei eff.red the following ns nil amendment te Mr. Slaymaker's lu-ailu tl0'1 : r .. lieselttd. That the secretary of the heard be iusti noted te give notice te .Miss Johnsten and Mim Gable, that If thore t auy repetitien of their lain impropriety in the soheol room during ihe next thirty days, they will he dismissed Irem the str str vice of the beard. Mr. Dakar and .Mr. Ilrewn favored Dr. Carpentor's preposition ; they should be given another liial, aud if at the end of thirty days they could net reoenoilo then dtueronceB let them ea iiimihsbuu. Mr. Rreslus would support Dr. Carpen ter's amendment, but for diiiorent ronsens than had bceu eil'eied Ue had no faith in tbe teaeheis' jelut letter. '1 nere is nothing In it.
