from the Toledo Blade, showing how small
an estimate trucking politicians place upon
the freedom Of speech, aud the dignity Of
freeman:
"some days since, We were sannierng u
round the dcpo's, and me, an acquaintance
whom he hud not met for some time. The
conversation turned on politics. knowing
villa, his convictions formerly were, we talk
ed freely with him on the present crisis IN
public affairs, and began to express our ieeI'
ings relative to the high.handed course OF
Douglass, Gushing & Co. We perceived he
was rather mum, and disposed to change the
conversation. At last with the blandest
kind Of expression, he remarked; "lm in
ra,lcr n delicate situation Not under
standing the exact extent Of the delicHcy, we
were obliged to press him still further, when
he replied: 9" suppose you know am pos,

ELECTRICITY.

Mn. EDITOR:
Sir,-hIuch has been said and writ
ten, and various opinions exist, as to the origin
of Electricity; and more particularly that kind
denominated Lightning the awful effects ofwhich
We sometimes witness in the destruction OF tim
Der in the wosps, and even Of life itself. The
general opinion is that it comes from the cloud,
bywhich We are overshadowed but, after very
critical examination and close observation, for
number of years, have come to different
conclu.ion. 1t is my opinion that as there is
positive and negative principle connected with
the subject, it is necessary that NC examine into
it so as to ascertain tho origin othat kind OF cleo
tric,y that we might term effective. Wewiil, in
the FIRST place, take the position that there is no
place where it docs not exist, butas it remains at
certain periods inactive 10 all appearances, VIC
arc not capable Of tracing !. in all its intricate
windings, yet We have at tim es the opportunity
Of witnessing its effects. But VIC set out to gain
some information as to whether it came from the
clouds, or whether it went from the ground; VIC
think from the latter, from the fact that it lisa
light body, and it would be impossible for it to
conc down, as all light bodies such as the gases
of which VIC think it is composed, have ten
dency to ascend instead of descending. II then
becomes necessary that there be evidence pro-
duced that such is the fact, that the order of ma
,urc becomes reversed, and if SO when do these
things take place. If it comes from the clouds,
the idea Of placing lightning rods for the protec-
ton of buildings is certainly exposing them to
more danger, from their attracting qualities, Tor
the velocity of lghtnngis such that 1t would DC
as likely to fall short of the conductor as to reach
1t, consequently it would be exposing the build
inr 10 more eminent danger than lift was not
there. But if we take the position that it is
collection of electricity in the earth, and the
cloud in passing over produces sufficient attrac-
,ion, or produces the peculiar state of atmos-
phero necessary to ignite such gases, then the
conductor is a very necessary article at the poll
of attraction, being placed at the foot of such
conductor, will have ateniency to collect all the
gases, and by very natural process it will pass
off on the conductor upwards, and DO perfectly
harmless. do not suppose that my position is
without objections, but my object is to elicit in
formation, and If you will permit discussion of
the suLjec, in your columns, it may have ten
dsncy to call out persons that arc cminently
qualified to dispose oE,hc subject in such a man
ncr as will give the most light and information.

County Court Of TAYLOR.

The Pruntytown Gazette seems to suspect
this body with want Of capacity to meet
its responsibilities, and states the following
facts 10 sustain the suspicion:
"a, one Court last Spring they ordered
tha, vote be taken 10 ascertain the sense
Of the people on the License question; at
the next Court, time was consumed in deba-
ting the matter, when the order was rescInd-
ed. AT this same court they issued an or
der authorizing the whole Court TO be sum-
moned at its next session 10 consider the
propriety Of granting license. The whole
Cour, assembled, in obedience TO the sum
mons, and after spending considerable time,
they refused to gran, any. The refusal was
we believe almost unanimous: and we then
stated, on the authority OF the President,
that the question was settled for one year, in
his opinion. Now, we do moi doubt his sin
cerity we believe he thought il was; but
il was his misfortune not 10 know the want
Of lirmness aud instability Of the Court
On last Monday the fat was all thrown into
the fire. Licenses were granted to persons
in various parts of the county. On The
rropr,e,y Of this last act we have nothing
10 say--we only raise the question Of inca.
nacity for business, and nantes, want Of
dignity in the official conduct Of the Court Of
Taylor county"

THE NEw SUSPENSION BRIDGE was opened
to public travel yesterday, July 26, and the
mail coaches and large number Of other
vehicles, as well as fout passengers, crossed
during the day. As temporary structure,
j, will, i, is hoped, be adequate 10 the &C.
commodalion Of the immense travel which
seeks transit across the river, though lack.
ing many Of the conveniences which will be
provided by the permanent bridge. 1t is,
however, infinitely superior to fery,which
has been tried long enough TO prove the
greatest nuisance that could be employed
on the river at this point.
The width Of this new structure is 10 fee.
and is divided into single carriage way Of
feet, and two foo,ways, each Two feet in
width. In order to prevent collisions Of We.
hicles, constant communications will be kept
up between watchmsn on each end Of the
bridge, by means Of signals.
The cost of the structure will be about
$1,000, falling some $4,000 below the esti-
mate made shortly after the destruction Of
the former cture.-WAerling Intel.
