A friend desires us to call the attention of the police to the large number of worthless (uncollared) dogs al the upper end of Rey nold street.

The defendant was sentenced to pay a fine of $25 and the costs. Look to Your Cla» Bills! The heavy burden imposed upon large communities bythe coat of Gas has been for. years the cause bf great complaint. No sub* stitute for gas has been found to answer the requirements of cleanliness and convenience, and the evil has been borne, because una voidable. But a remedy is now offered to our citizens, in the “American Improved Gas Light” apparatus —by which the price of light is much reduced, and a better article furnished, without in any degree lessening the advantages of gas. The improvement consists in passing the city gas, after it leaves the metre, through an apparatus which enriches it, and increases its illumi nating power —thus furnishing a given amount of light with less quantity of gas. This is truly an important matter, and further information can be obtained by call ing, at ten o’clock this forenoon, at the bfficc of Messrs. Barber, Lathrop A Co., Broad street One Currency tor AH. A bill is now before Congress providing for the stoppage of the sale of gold and ' silver by the United States Government and the resumption of specie payment after May Ist., 1869, by the destruction of idl notes received at the Treasury in the course of ordinary business transactions, and the issuing in their stead of notes redeemable in coin one year from date. The bill was adopted in committee by a vote of seven to two, and is a practical measure worth more than all the planks in the democratic plat form. It maans business and not buncombe. Interesting to Bcnllsts. The Goodyear' Vulcanite Company of New York have instituted a suit against Dr. Crandall, a dentist of Amsterdam, in the United States Circuit Court, in which they pray that an injunction may be granted to the end that Dr. Crandall may be compelled to desig’t in the use of hard rubber- The doctor proposes to test the legality of this great dental monopoly, and has' retained W. H. Davis, Esq., of Utica, N. Y., as counsel for that purpose. The dental profession will await the termination of lias case with great interest. Sun Stroke* The great prevention to sun stroke is tem perance, and avoiding, as much as possible the exposure to intense heat; the keeping of hours, taking one’s regular meals, /nd shunning all excesses. There are two farms in which people are affected by exces sive heat. The first generally occurs after exertion, and is marked by faintness or inability to move. The pulse is feeble, and the skin cool aud moist. In such cases relief is afforded by removing the person to a cool, shady place, applying cold water or ice to the head, and administering brandy and ice water, or other stimulant which will Set the nervous system right again. In the ®ore fatal form of sun stroke, the patienr falls suddenly to the ground, hjs skin ts hot and dry, his breathing short, and sometimes - convulsions set in. If aid be not promptly administered, death will immediately ensue. 1» this case the party Should be removed to a cool place, the crowd kept back, his doth 'nC should be stripped off, and bis whole body rubbed with ice, from head to foot, and pieces of iee kept under each arm pit. Thia treatment should be persevered in until the arrival of a doctor, or until it is evident that the patient is past recovery. Our Public Schools. Augusta, Ga., July 1, 18Q8-. To the Honorable Board of Education, Richmond County. Gentlemen —I have the honor to submit my second quarterly report of the PuWu; School* of this county, within the bounds of Augusta. At the date of my last report, the whole number of pupils enrolled was nine hundred and eighty-six (986), whereof the average daily attendance equalled about per Prior- to the adoption of a system of lu]Cr intendence, great irregularity in attendance prevailed among the childran. 1 may, with out exaggeration, denominate that irregu; larity in evil of the first pagniUule; because it affeoted not only those with Whom it had becomp second nature, but teachers and the more regular pupils. How to successfully remedy this growing evil, was a question, which presented itself to the miud of your as of the very first import ance. Something, it was evident, had to be done, and that right speedily. After mature deliberation, I determined to appeal to the ambition and pride of the children composing the seteral'sehools. To th|t *'« 11 1$ assistance of* Jflttice’Snlning*, of t,hb-voaT(r of Education, I ordered twenty beautiful silvered medals—first class prizes—one of which, I promised, etfeh teacher, shquld be publicly presented* td : that boy or girl, Whom,- after a rigid examination of all the pupils,, he would report to me as the representative pupil of his school; and 1 further requested teaclujrs to report to me the names ot throb boys and girls “Distinguished for Good Conduct and Proficiency;” and three boys and girls “Entitled to Honorable No tice.” I Was pleased, in making my regular visits to the schools, to note the unusually large attendance, and the earnestness with which the children applied themselves to the les sons assigned them. Unacteustofned to See ing abd reciting in the presence of visitors, it was rttftsohably apprehended that the children would be slow to iiceortfmodato themselves to such an innovation. But in this wfe were agreeably surprised Nothing but imperative necessity kept the children away from school a single day. Teachers report that, while horn various causes, such as pic nies, removals from the city, sickness, etc., the aggregate number of pupils enrolled,-is lass than Jut lag Um ipiar ter ending March 31st ult., the average daily attendance has been better. In addition to tife improvement nude, in this important respect, and in their studies, the children have manifested the possession of a missionary spirit, which lias accom plished results not to be overlooked. Boys and girls, who were known to be negligent, and indisposed to avail themselves of the excellent uducatiwud advantages affm-ded them, have been bfoight into sdmol, aud the names of some of these appear among the pupils honorably mentioned. » * * * * * ■ * * * ■Our teachers have zealously and faithfully discharged their arduous duties ; have been constantly at their post, notwithstanding the fact that, because of the errors of the system under which they operate, they are oft-times sorely perplexed and pecuniarily embarrassed. * * * * * recapitulation : Whole number of boys and girls enrolled ....k 913 Average daily attendance 568 THE COLORED S< HOWLS- Early in April the Board of Education granted certificates to ten teachers of color ed schools. The school buildings occupied were fitted up by the General Government, and are located as follows ; > , . ; One at the southern extremity of Hous ton street* —two schools; one near Beaver Dam—three schools ; one in Dublin—two schools; one on Reynold street, below Marlury—two schools. The Central African Church is used by another of the Mihpols, I have found the teachers at their post, except in two instances, when Providential causes hindered. Their conduct has afford ed evidence of the fact, that they are de voted to their work. The pupils have, in the majority of in stances, made rapid progress. They are neat in appearance and well disciplined. *■*» * * # ■ RECAPITULATION. Whole number of boys and girls enr011ed............ 805 Average daily attendance 573 CONCLUSION. In the developments of the quarter just closed, there is much to encourage us. We have the assurance that the children, and our people generally, are ripe for the most perfect Public School system that can possibly be devised. METHODS IN US«. In some of the schools, among primary pupils, the Pestalozzian method of teach ing reading, spelling, mental arithmetic, etc. r has proved to be very effective. By the Pestalozzian method* is meant that which provides for simultaneous recita tions. The Jactot method has been found to be particularly adapted to imparting instruction in reading. ■» VOCAL MUSfC. 1 have long been an advocate of the introduction of Vocal Music into our Public Schools. I believe that it would infuse new life into the schools, to say nothing of the tefining influences it would exert upon the minds of the pupils. The experiment has been made in the Augusta Free School, and the result is extremely gratifying, j commend this subject to the careful con sideration of the Board of Education. All of which is respectfully submitted. Your obedient servant, Marti# V.. Calvin, City Sup’t Ji. C. P- S, ;— Phillips’ Provision Exchnnife. Cmcinhati, July *lO, 1868. Editor National Repullican: The anticipations of a reaction in the provi sion market which I xietieed in my last were realized. The low rates, together with the im pression that prices had touched bottom, induced costumers to enter the market. A considerable number of orders were received from the princi pal distributing points, but holders, on (he ap peaiSmce of buyers, at once put up their figures, and, as most of the orders were limited in price, considerable difficulty was experienced in filling them. A material advance was estaMished on nearly all articles, though the extreme views of holders restricted operations, for no aoosier was an advance established, than a further one was demanded. The market, to-day, closed firm, and holders were careless about selling. MESS PORK advanced to >2B for city'packed; - and was in good dyuiand, with more buyers than sellers ; country 25 to 500 less. LARD, under favorable advices from Liverpool and New York, has been active, and prices advanced Ijo per pound. City kcttled sold to day at 171 c, and 1 more iseiow generally asked; keg 19c. BULK MEATS are also higher; shouMerA advanced to 1 lie, but now held at 12c ; rib sides are quoted at 18 ; clearrib 1-1 J; clear 15Ie—all■ loose.

The oath was administered by die Chief Justice ot the Supreme Court. A number of outgoing and incoming officials were present on the platform. The inaugural address is brief and well written, bnt not .very explicit as to his future course. He says : “I refrain at this time from entering into any discussion of measures. 1 deem it of irajrortance to urge, however, immediate measures for the repression of lawlessness andidisorder now so rife in the State.

Senator Lynch, President pro tern., introduced Dunn to the Senate as first Lieut.

Ln his reply, Dunn said : “As to myself and my people, we are not seeking social equality ; that is a thing no law can govern. We all have our preferences. We all wish to select our . associates, mid no legislation can select them for us. Wo ask nothing of the kind. We simply ask to be allowed an equal chance in the race of life, and to have an equal opportunity of supporting our families, of educating our children and of becoming worthy citizens of this govern ment.” Governor Warmoth has not notified the commanding General of the adoption of tlie XIV Article of the Amendment, and hence no order has been issued turning over btate Government to the civil authorities. * -—, <»■■» * Order from General Canby.
