In the great India Rubber oaso of H. H. Day against the Association of India Rubber Menu* faoturers, now in tho fourth week of considera tion, at Providence, R. 1,, it was annonneed on Monday morning that the juror who was taken sick on the second week had died. The parties had previously agreed to finish tho oase with cloven jurors. Tho case will probably occupy the attention of the Court for two weeks longer. It is the same patent case which was terminated in New York, last summer, by tho death of a juror. ... COUSTY SUPERINTENDENTS OF scnooi.s. The new school law of the session of 1864 provide! for, the election of a, county superra tendcnt of public eohaola in each county of this State; and in June last those officers were elected, and thoir salaries fixed at different sums of from.s2so to $1,600 per year. Considerable exertionß aro now making to hare that part of tho new law repealed; and numerous petitions have been sent to the legislature, asking for b repeal. Bat the petitions are not numerously signed; and the petitionists form but a Bmall portion of the whole population of the State. The effort to repeal that portion of the law is entirely premature. There has as yet boon no time to test the value of the change, and under stand the fluty of these county officers.. That those who dread every improvement in our com mon schools that costs money should oppose the new law, was to ho expeoted. They are op posed to all echool laws, and publio education. That a considerable number of the teaoheis would oppose this new, feature of the law, was also to be expected. They might fcol some jealousy of tho new county officers, whoßO duties required them to examine into the capacity and fitness of all teaohers, and into the manner in wfaioh nil the schools were conducted, with a view to secure nniformity as well as efficiency in their management. Sneh an officer as a competent county superintendent, who would do his duty faithfully and fearlessly, would very likely, be obnoxious to somo of tho teachers. They; again, coaid influence their immediate lriends and neighbors againßt the connty offi cers, and petitions for repeat could be procured with but little difficulty. But we hope and trust tho legislature Will let the law stand as it is for a few years; believing, as we do, a fair trial will result in vindicating the wisdom of the measure, and greatly improving the character and value of oar public schools. The publio Bohool law itself, when first enact ed, was unpopular in many parts of tho State, and many districts refused to avail themselves of its provisions. Bat time and a fair trial have rendered onr oommon school system almost uni versally acceptable to tho people; and it has ac complished a vast amount of good in our com monwealth. The new features introduced into . the law at the last session, are decided improve ments, and will donbttess becomo generally ac ceptable to the people when fairly tried and un derstood. ■ In some counties an attempt has been mado to discredit the office of connty snperintendent by fixing his salary at so low a rato that no competent man would serve.' In Berks county the salary was fixed, we are informed, at $250/ Bat the officer eleoted determined to satisfy the people of their error; and he has discharged the duties of bis office with snch good judgment and fidelity; and by .lectures and other means so freely made known its objeots, that the people arejsatiefied with it, and have applied jto tho legislature for special authority to inoroaso the salary. In regard to this law, a great deal depends upon the efforts of tho superintendents to ren. der it popular by their good management, and their successful exertions to make its objeots un derstood. They will meet with opposition, and find muoh prejudice to contend against. But the masses of the people can be easily convinced of their own interests, and that it is for their in terest to have the law, as it now stands, retain ed and enforced. It will elevate tho standard of oar common sohools; improve their manage ment ; seoure a higher degree of oompetenoy in teaohers, and nniformity in the Bystem of publio education. These are objeots that will ten-fold compensate for a slight increase of expense. Give this feature of the law a fair trial for three or four years, and we will venture tho prediction .that none who have ohildren to educate, or prbpcriy appreciate the value of publio educa tion, will be fonnd signing petitions for its repeal. Tut Bbuishi Committee.— The committee appointed to investigate the chargee of briber; at Harrisburg arc attending to their duties ; and “some say” important developments vrill be* made, if the committee works faithfully and fearlessly, such may bo the result. But such committees are not always of the right stripe. If there is a slpgle osbo of the improper use of money'to influence votes, we hope it will be dis covered and fully exposed. It is time the pub- Uo were informed whether the charges so fre quently made havo any.-, foundation in truth. Hot the exposure hit whom it will; but out with it, tf there ie any thing to expose!- The people are anxious to know whether they elect men to go to Harrisburg to make money dishonestly, •or to make, laws honestly. So high an office ss that of U. 8. Senator should not be bought or Sold; and If there has been any trading in rela tion to it, the people want to know all about it. Will the committee make thorough and honest Work of it ? * We shall see. Godet’s Lade's Book —The March number of this great favorite with- the ladies is issued, and for sale by the agent, Samuel B.

Wo wore lately informod by a prominent mem ber of tho House, that had our delegation pre- sented the name of a Western oandidate in earnest, and adhered to their preference, the East would haro oonoeded the olaim of the West, and willingly elected a Western man to the Sen ate.

Sshook Arbbsted is Switsek lash,—The Treasurer of Holmes county, Ohio, who recently disappeared with some $60,000 of tho people’s funds, is reported to have been ar rested, last month, in Switzerland. He had about his person, when taken into custody, some 60,000 francs in bills of exohango. Tub Aebest of Kissase, tub Alleged Fon ana.—We havo already mentioned tho arrrest in Erie county, N. Y., of Kissane, who etandß charged with having somo months since obtain ed in New York city, by forgod paper, from tho Chemical Bauk, $13,000, and from tho Conti ncntal Bank, $O,OOO. Tho Tribune says these large sums were obtained in tho following inge nious manner: Ho made his appearanco at the counting room of a well known firm in this city, and presented, it is alleged, a forged letter of credit, which sot forth that ho was a member of a prominent firm in a western city, with which tho New York firm had done an extensive bneiness. Before leaving the oounting room, he stated that he had a large amouut of drafts, &c., on his person, whioh he wished to deposite in somo bank for safe keep ing, and requested an introduction to tho bank in which the down-town firm kept its aocoont. The request waß complied with, and a member of the firm accompanied him to tho Chemical Bank, where he was introduced, and before leaving, deposited forgod drafts, with forged cer tificates, upon them to the extent of $13,000. He then disappeared for a few days, and returned with a check for the full amount of his deposit, which ho wished oertified. This was dono, and again ho left—obtained from a broker the money ou the oertified check, and started for the west. Ho was oaptured about six weeks afterwards, buteaonped from tho care while be ing brought to this oity, and has now been ro-ar rested. Andrew Finlay and N. A. Gole, who ore said to have been oonnected with him in va rious villianous transactions, nro now in the Tombs. A friend, well Tersed in military bb well as olvil history, referring to our historical memo randa of yesterday regarding tho rank of Lieu tenant General, points out in our articlo a slight error, to oorrect which we avail ourselves of bis private note. He says "General Washington was not expected, by any member of Congress, to accept (as he did) tho Lieutenant Generaloy; but when it was found that ho could b«. brought back into the publio servloe, Congress was in hdite to revive his revolutionary rank, Genliiai or full General, ond tho Lieutenancy was abolish ed, at tho instance of President Adams, to pre vent the promotion of the next in rank (Hamil ton) thereto. Their quarrel had commenced some time before.” It thus appears that tho rank of Lieuteuaut General was a grade between tho rank General (Washington’s revolutionary rank) and the grade Major General; so that we have had in our army (and militia, too, we be lieve) every rank but that of Field Marshal. It would be an interesting inoident if the com mission of Gen. Scott, aB Lieutenant General of tho Army of the United States should boar date on the 22d of February. The honor being ouc which only tho Father of bis Country held, it would be most appropriately conferred on tho birthday of the great Chieftain. It Is an occa sion which draws out our Sue military compa nies, and they would feel a peculiar pleasuro in saluting the General-in-Chief on the day of his well deserved promotion. Ekcolsteb be wees a Gestlejias ahd a Hors e Robber is St. Loots.—The Saint Louis Democrat gives the particulars of a rencontre whioh recently eusned in that oity between a gentleman by tho name of Coleman, boardiDg at a houso on tho oorner of Washington Aveoao and Third street, and a bnrglar. Coleman was awakened just in time to see a fellow retreating out the door with his urns full of clothing. Quick as thought the old revolver was seized and fired. At the report, down dropped tho baggago and up loaped tho thief in the air about five feet, giving a tremendous yell, evidently having received a ball in that portion of the body ro qniring tho greatest amount of doth to oover it. There were five moro loads in the pistol, and our friend Coleman was growing blood-thirsty. He leaped from his bod and gave chase. The thief, frantio to eßOape, rushed out upon a little porch, and giving one bound alighted sprawling on the brick pavement of the back yard. Here waß a fine chanco for a shot, and Coloman has tened to tako advantage of it. Leaning over the banisters, he began the trigger. Cliok I dick 1 went the pistol, round and round revolv ed tho barrel, but no discharges. Tho thief at laßt p eked himself up and hastoned behind the oorner of the hoaßo, receiving, howevor, before be was ont of sight, two more rounds from the old rovoiver, whioh, to the great annoyanee of Coteman, at last began to make fire after the beat chance was over.

Tho jailor’s assistant called out, “ Mr. Green, here’s your breakfast,” on going his rounds, and receiving no answer, supposed that ho was sleeping longer than usual. Some farther timo elapsed, when, on going into the cell, the body was discovered. From appearances, tho not was supposed to have been committed some where between 0 and 12 o’olock on Saturday night. He had appeared about ns usual for Borne days previous, and no 6usploion was enter tained by the officers or attendants that ho con templated suicide. About 10 o’clock yesterday morning, Dr. J. S. Beech, the Coroner, summoned a jury of in quest, who, after viewing the body, and hearing a statement of the faots above detailed, render od the following verdict: “That the deceased, George W. Green, came to his death by hanging himself in his oell, in'Cook county jail, on the night of the ITth 1855.” After the inquest, the body lay for tho greater part of the day upon the door of the oell, visi ble through tho window from tho outs de, and large numbers climbed upon tho iron fenoo in Iront of tho cell to gratify an eager curiosity The face of tho deceased was very block and muob swollen—no doubt resulting from strangu lation. Tho circumstances of the trial of Mr. Green mast still be freßh in the pnblia mind. He was convicted of mnrder, bat not sentenced, and a new trial bad been granted. Subsequently his counsel took exceptions to tho finding of the jnry, the chief point being tho alleged illegality of the verdict, because it was rendered while tho Court was not in session. An appeal was taken by habeas corpus to tho Supremo Court at Springfield, and his discharge demanded on this ground ; bat after a hearing the motion wes de nied. Thus tho case etc ol ss before. He was entitled to a now trial, but ho chose, in the ter rible manner above detailed, to appeal to that highest of all tribunals, from whoso decisions there Is no appeal. Wo learn that about too days einoe, Mr. Green made a second will, which was signed by Judge Wilson and P. Ballingail ns witnesses, without reading, sealed up by him, indorsed with the names of Bimon Doylo, (Jailor,) and Edward Si monds, and shortly after placed in tho hands of theso gentlemen. Some papers wore found in tho cell, but nothing in any way bearing upon his crime or snioido. NEWS BY TELEGRAPH. Reported Expressly for llie Daily Morning Posl ORE WEEK LATER FROM EUROPE.
