Tuc Public All friends of education are invited by Superintendent W.

M. Crow to visit tho city Jblic schools between this and the close of the lirescr.t term, June IS. The snporintendent is o. strong believer in the progressive idea that the best method of ascertaining the real merits of schools is to occasionally mane them private business visits and learn something of the practical, overy-doy workings of the schools. This will afford a moro correci test tnan an oral examination durinz on a or two days of abnormal excitement at tho close of the term.

Pupils of tho public schools are thoroughly examined, mostly in writing, at the close of each quarter. The final examination will begin ou June the Oth and continue lour days. As a reward for proficiency and industry per cent, of pupils whose quarterly examination and recitation rtandins nas been bigbert. during the year, will be exempt from the ilnnl examination. TRAGIC ENDING OP A DBCSKES John Ccnclly, a Snllorcn the Schooner Burn.

hnm, Fntnlly Woundea--The Auatlaiit ArrotcJ anil 'jullod-Proceedlngn llcfure the Coroner. A difficulty occurred about 1 o'clock Sunday moruing between tho sailors on boar! the schooner L. A. Burnbatn, lying at Brick wharf, in which one of ths" parties, named John B. Conolly, was stabbed by Michael McGrail, another ot tho crew.

Tbe wounded man was removed to St. Marys hospital, where he lingered until about 2:20 yesterday morning, when be died. McGrnil was arrested nnd lodged in jail. Yesterday moruing Justice Spann was notified of Conolly's death, and at onco proceeded to hold nn inquest. Tho following is Iho substnnoo of the testimony presented before, the jury; Dr "Fisher, after a post-mortem examination, made the following statement: "Tbepost-moitem revealed a wound about one-half inch in length between the umth and tenth ribs on tho right side, penetrating tho diaphragm anterior border of the common bile kidney, and flrst portion of the email intestine," Thomas Nolen testified as follows: ily residence is Boston, my ago fifty years.

I knew tho deceased, John B. Conolly. I also know Michael McOrail, who is charged with his death. "We three were members of the crow of tho American schooner L. A.

Burn- hnm The flrst time I met either one of them was on board tho schooner in Boston, when we joined her. Between 13 nnd 1 o'clock faundoy morniuc I was sitting in my berth on board the vessel, when Conolly, the deceased, Mc- Grnil, the accused, and Robert Quayle, another of tho crow, came aboard, all more or lets intoxicated. I heard them growling among themselves something about a kitten, but I took no particular notice of them. The growling occurred in tho forecastle. I was In the forecastle, but could not see them ns I was in my bunk.

I heard blows struck, but do not know by whom. .1 beard tho prisoner call somo one a but do not know to whom he applied the lancuaKe. When the expression was, made, the man who is dead, was getting Into hta berth which is above mine. Ho had on nothing but a shirt. On hearing tho words, how- over, be stepped back, put on a pair of pants and started towards the door.

I did not hoar him say anything. Not more than a half minute afterwards, ho returned to whore I was, nud said ha was stabbed, to send for a doctor. He had his hands to his stomach or side. He lay down on the floor I had gotten out of my bunk and asked him if ho felt sick. He said no, but that he was bleeding all tho time.

Ho did not seem to me to be bleeding much. I cave him. some water. Tha flrst 8me I saw the prisoner after Conolly wai cut live or ten minutes later. He came from the cabin, I think.

He held the wounded man's head and gave him some water. When he held his head and gave him the water be said: "Sou must reeol- lect, Jack, that in a case ot this sort YOU are bound to coins off seoond best, nnd don't you forget it, every timo. When Conolly said ho was stabbed, ilr. Quayle went up tho street after a doctor, I supposed. Some time afterward, ho returned two policemen who arrested the prisoner, oud convoyed the wounded man to the hosui- Eobert Quayle testified as follows: I am a citizen of Nova Scotia and a member of tho crew of the American schooner A.

Burn- bem. 1 joined her at Boston. I knew John B. Conolly' nnd I know Michael MeGraiL Tliey were both members of tho crew of the schooner Buruham. This is my second voyagt with tho prisoner; my tirst with the deceased.

Conolly told mo that he was a resident of Now York. He was unmarried. He has a sister in Albany, andanotheriu West Troy, New York. About o'clock Saturday evening McGrail, Conolly nud I went a-shora and walked about tbe wharves. Wu took several drinks.

About fifteen or twenty minutes pnit twelve we started to go oa board, all partly under the influence ot liquor. While on our way McGrail picked up a iittlo kitten iu the street and put it under his coat to take on board the ship. We were--all of us--there perfectly friendly. After we went on board wo talked and joked some fifteen or twenty minutes about the kitten. McGrail tied it and placed it in his bunk.

Conolly broke too siring and said: See, Mike, the cat has broke the Mike said: I know bettor thau that; I seen you break Mike then went to get a bit of beef for the kitten, and while he gone, Conolly took the kitten and put it in his own bunk. Wheu he returned he looked for it, and asked mo if I bad it. I said no. He then OKkfd Jack, who replied: 'What the h--1 do I want with tbe kitten? 1 To this Mike rcpliwl: 'You you've bean'trying to boss tho forecastle during the whole Jcck then said to Mike: 'You told somebody ashore that I did not intend to pay my dsbts. Jack also accused Mike, in somewhat similar language to that used by the latter, that ho it wnswhowastryms to boss tbe forecastle.

They clinched, ana I separated them, and asked Mike to turn in. He called mo a nnd, stepping outside the forecastle, called mo "out. 1 stepped to the door, when ho struck at me and we fought for is couple of minutes. I fell on the deck and he fell on top of me. Conolly pulled him off and struck him a couplo of blows.

He accused us of double- banking and kicking him. "We (that is Conolly and myself) were in our bare feet. Conolly went in tbe forecastle, Mike following him. I went torwarel, nud as I was soinjc I beard Conolly halloo out: He's got a knife, Bob." I got a belaying pin while I was forward. I thoa heard Conolly say-he was cot I went back, and meeting Mike asked him what he cut Jock for.

He said: "I'll serve you the same way." I went to tha cabin and told tbe captain, that Jack was cut, and be sent the mato.for- ward. Mike was in tho cabin then. I don't know but he was in the cabin before me. He also told the captain that he had cut Jack, and that he thought he had cut him bad. Jack asked me to see a doctor, and while I was going for the doctor, I met two policemen.

They arrested Mike, and sent Jack to the hospital." The witness was shown an ordinary sheath- Knife, about five inches long, which he ideifti- fled as the property of the prisoner, adding that it was the only one in the forecastle. This closed tho testimony and the jury upon it returned the following verdict: Wo, tho jury find that tho deceased, John B. Conolly came to his death in the city of Galveston on tbe 20th day of May, 1SS4, from the effects of a wound inflicted with some sharp instrument in the hands of Michael McG-rail. Justice Spann, under the testimony and cbe finding of the jury, held McGrail to ansvi-ar before the Criminal Court, aud committed him to the county jail. TIio Senly Reserves.

Dally That 40,000. people should abandon their interests to the mercies of a handful of unreliable charactorsismoreserious than ludicrous; the operations of -the so-called Democratic county convention, he could not have well reached any other conclusion that such a condition of affairs as above existed inline county. Nominally, not to exceed forty were presuming the sonti- ments and wishes of our 40,000 relative to the method of their government, while practically not to exceed ten of the 'said forty were tho real instigators and manipulators of the proceedings and actions taken.

We thick probably that the 'thirty of tuo so- called delegates were fulfilling thoir duties as far as they were able. From their actions, habits and surroundings we must judge them. They are sufficiently well thought of among fellows, and by a little inherent shrewdness they manage be elected as the representatives of their wards; not, however, owing to the positive strength of their rather from the negative weakness of the entiro constituency, caused by neglect apathy. Once being elected they httvo been taught or allowed to beliova that their principal duty is to provide themselves and friends with, positions ns dele- Bates to conventions where they are tolerably sure of having a good time, aud possibly acquire a few dollars. There serious duties, if thpy aver fully realize them, are usually, over to tho other ten, with the remark, that "Jim, or John; or Colonel, or Major are pretty keen lawyers, know tue ropes and.are fully posted as to what candidate is better for ns to support." Thus the suffrages of 40.000 are finally relegated to the hands of half a dozen political lawyers and demagogues.

This is without doubt the basis of our representation as it exists. How such a. state of things has arisen matters It.is sufficient for us to know that we have drifted thituar, and have only to inquire is the result satisfactory? Yiulntliis: an Ordinance.

Her consort, the Bayou City, ran alongside the Lane and was entangled in her -when tbe Confederates swarmed aboard the ducks of tbo man-of-war, wuera a desperate hand-to-haud fishc took place, resulting in tho capture of tbe Louo atter bar commander, Captain -Woinwright, aud his principal officers nnd a number of men had been laid dead on her decks. Commander Ecnsbaw, while endeavoring to free bis ship, tbe Westfleld, from her anchors, and to get hor into action, had tbe misfortune to around her or. tho flats oft pelican The commander then abandoned hissllip, after putting a match to her magazine, aud escapel with his crew iu boats; but after waiting some time, and finding that the vessel did not explode be returned with'a boat's crow of fifteen men to see what was the matter.

This mis a fatal move, for scarcely had Commauder ivan- shnw again boarded his flagship when she blew apwith a terrible explosion, and not a soul craped. Tbe balance of the squadron to wbiei the federal garrison had no option but to surrender to a victorious nnd superior The Federals never retook Galveston during the entire war, and the Harriet Lane remained in the bonds of the Conferatos uutil toward tho close of hostilities, whan she w.as retaken bv the federal fleet as u. blockade runner. AC- ter tho war she was sold into tho merchant service; her engines were taken out aud she was converted into a four-masted schooner. She has often this iort, ns a peaceful merchantman as well as when she was a war- and she was in the fleet with which Admiral Farragut captured New Orleans in A most pathetic and tragic occurred at the time of tho capture of tbe Lone nt Galveston, nnd it was a realization of pae of those terrible possibilities of acivil war, buc which happily did not often occur during tbe late conflict between the American States.

Among the officers of the Lane was a gailanb and bandsomo young lieutenant natnert Loi. Amoue 1be confederate officers who composed tho forces that boarded the Lane ami eusfigsci in tbe bloody struggle ou her deck was Major Albert Lea, cnce an officer of tho United States army, but then fighting for his native South.
