At the last regular meeting of the city council a resolution was passed ordering a special election for the purpose of voting upon a proposi tion to purchase ten acre of land for use as a cemetery- At the special meeting held last evening the judiciary com mittee reported that there were yet thirty-one lots unsold and in ac cordance with the recommodation of the committee 'the special vote, previously ordered was postponed 'til the regular spring election. Tub Herald believes this was a wise steps, if it be positively known that sufficient cemetery ground will be available until after the election. A special election at this time would greatly inconvenience many and create useless expence. The vote could not be taken at the approaching election as a notice of election could riot be published in advance as per requirements of the law. Speed. As an evidence of the progress being made in penmanship in the city schools thus far we mention a speed contest that took place this morning in the grammar rooms of Miss Wilson and Miss Searl.

There was also an average time made by all the pupils of 50 words to the minute. . Attend school, thou youth, and get the benefit of this drill. Married.
