~ destitute Of the moral and mental requisites for
up candidates for every office, and usually sue.
ceed st the expense of more able. worthy and ho-
norablc men, who do not make office hunting the
business Of their lives. These remarks apply to
candidates generally. bu, more particularly to cam
dJa,es for members Of Assembly. A number Of
candidates already out, anxious to represent this
county in the nett legislature. Without intending
reflect the character Of any of them individu-
ally, may be permitted to ask whether either Of
them such men the people of Old Northum-
berand county should select to represent their in.
iercsts in the councils Of siste' And why, let me
ark, in matters OF such importance, should We con-
fine ourselves in selecting candidates from among
those only who ohtruda their names before the pub

an ice mountain in Hampshire county, Virgin
10, which has excited not a little interest in
that quarter. l,is composed of rocks, and rises
some seven or eigh, hundred feet, constituting
part of ridge. The mountain surface is made
up of red sandstone-and upon removing the
stones to the depth OF q few inches masses of
ice are found at midsummer even during
the most oppressive seasons. A thermometer
introduced among the cavities Of the rocks sunk
below 40 degrees, and would have gone lower,
had it remained. During recent winter, ca
witty about four feet below the surface was open
ed, and filled up with snow. 1t was covered
loosely with boa rds, yet it remained during the
whole summer, dry, friable and chrystallne,
without melting.
