Our Removal.

Since the issue of our last paper, we have been
engaged in the troublesome work ofremoving our
printing establishment to new quarters. 1t is an
exceedingly rough job, and the worst of is that
we are not yet through with it. We are yet in
great confusion, but have managed by dint of
hard labor to give our readers paper at the usu-
al time
We leave the old stand with feelings of relnc-
tanco amounting to downright sadness. 1t had
been occupied as the office of the Spectator fer
many wears, and is associated with our earliest
recoloctions of the StauntOn press. Within ITS
venerable walls we have passed our editorial life
for the most part pleasant and agreeable life
and it was with sigh that we ruthieosly strip
ped it of It's contents, exposing the accumulated
dust and dirt and rubbish of years, and gazed up
on its vacant apartments. "ln the course OF hu-
man events" however, it became necessary for
MS to make move, and 50 here we are in our new
quarters. May we never have to leave them
We trust our friends will have no difficulty in
finding us out. We are in tolerably decent and
comfortable quarters. where we hope to see all
our old patrons and to attract many new ones.
Staunton spectator. [volume] (Staunton, Va.) 1849-1896, 1854-05-17
The Right Spirit.

We are pleased to find the following remarks
in the Temperance Gasettc, published at Lynch
burg and Scottsville, by Mcdonald and Forbes
The Gazette is a warm advocate of the Maine
Liquor Law, and we trust speaks tho sentiment:
OF the Temperance party generally. Under the
head If Prohibition and the Press" that paper
says:
..But no dosbt large proportion OF papers thai
oppose the prohibl tory movement, do 1t from prln
chile. and while we regret that they entertain
such views. vet we admire their independence
Let the independence of tie Press be preserved
forever.
at will have fallen beneath lis high mission
and dignity and destiny, when with 1t principle
yield to efforts to obtain public popularity. Bu
when the press is divided the people should IN
partially examine the positions and weigh the IA
gumens of either side, and sustain those in their
views, which have justice and truth upon their
side. Such course in this case will result IA
vorably to Those who advocate the cause of prohi-
bition."
Certainly it will result more favorably than the
course pursued by some misguided zealots, wht
seek to prescribe every newspaper that does no
advocate prohibitory law. Those lberal-mind
ed Temperance men who think they can bring
the independent press into Liquor Law traces by
the withdrawal of their little pitifil, twodollar
per-annum patronage, sadly miscalculate. 1t il
true that printers purse is not usually very
long, but it is generally able to spare the contri
bui;ons of the few men who nowadays seek thus
to ,rea1 down the freedom of the press.
Staunton spectator. [volume] (Staunton, Va.) 1849-1896, 1854-05-17
The Federal Court Grand Jury.

The Richmond Whig, noticing the conduct Of
the officers of the Federal Court, in summoning
81 Democrats and Wing on the Grand Jury
at this place, remarks:
This is prescription with vengeance, and the
very quintessence of official litteness. We are
coming to nice pass when party politics is to
govern the selection ofjurymen. The Democra-
CIV of that region must be very hungry for Fede-
raj pap when they go in for monopoly of the
seven shillngs and sxpence per day and mileage,
for serving on the juries of the Federal Court
We commend their case to the consideration OF
the Brigadier, with the hope that he will do some
thing for them rather more handsome than small
game like this. Whoever this deputy is he ought
certainly to be removed to field of wider range
for his proscriptive propensities. Marcy ought to
have him about the State Department by all
means.
The last Vindicator states that the Deputy
Marshall summoned only eight Of the Grand Ju-
nv. 1t does not matter who summoned them
there stands the record, 81 Democrats and
Wing. If the Deputy did not summon them who
did? Did the Deputy summon single Wing
Certainly sumo one is responsible. If the subal-
tern, let him be promptly rebuked by the Mar
shall if the Marshall himself let the people take
the matter in hand, and lay it before the proper
Department at Washington, for Investigation
Let us see whether the introduction of the odiOu:
principle Of prescription for opinions sake" ever
into Courts of Justice will be sanctioned at head
quarters.

JUSTICE.

.Nessrs Editors:-My attention has been call
ed to an article in the indicator containing
Sc vtral nterrogatories addressed to me by Many
Voters" The interrogatories are
LIST. VIII you, if elected to the Sheriffalty. pay
the tax levied upon The office by the County
Court, as authorized by lava
2nd. Will you, if elected, pay over the County
claims and fees of the officers of the Courts, when
collected to the proper persons, promptly. without
retaining the money in your hands from year to
year, and without being compelled. by legal pro-
ceedings to make settlement before The Commits
sion of the Courts
In answer to these nerrogatories, will simply
say, that, when a candidate for the SheriHalty
two years ago, it was my intention then, as it is
now, if elected to pay any tax. which the County
Court, under the law, might see fit TO impose up
on that office. believing that it is nothing more
than just and right for the ncumbentof that office
to pay for the privilege, which his fellow-citzens
have bestowed upon him.
1t is also my intention. ifeectej, to pay prompt
ly, the County claims and fees of the officers of
the Courts, and all monies as soon collected.

We are indebted to the Publisher, Mr.. a. Nor
ris, of Richmond, for 4 handsomely bound copy
OF highly interesting novel bearing the above
title, from the pen cf talented young lady OF
that city. From the hasty glance that we have
only been able to give it as yet, we are prepared
to endorse the high encomiums bestowed upon II
by the press generally. A lady friend, into
whose hands we placed it, pronouuces 1t captya-
ting. The book belongs to that class OF works
known as ''religious uovels"-a department oil
literature to which the gifted authOress has made
most valuable and entertaining contributions
She is known to the religious public as the writer
of Robert Remer's" interesting letters, publish
ed some time ago in the Vatchman aud Observer
The book is gotten up in decidedly creditablt
style, both as regards Typography and binding
IL is meeting with rapid sale, and is destined tt
have a "great run" See Publishers advertise

Destruetive Fire.

On Tuesday afternoon, the 9th inst, the brlci
dwelling-house of Mr.. John Bare, on South RlV
er in this county, caught fire from the chimney
and in short time the whole building was des
troyed with large quantity Ofvaluable furniture
The wind being high, the fire was soon cOmmu
nicated to a large bank barn which was also to
tally DESTROYED. The merchant mill, in the same
cluster of buildings, very narrowly escaped.
Mr.. Bare and his sons were absent at the time
but the neighbors promptly gathered in, although
too late to avail much in the rapid progress OF tn
fire. Among the few articles offurniture rescued
was "Secretary," in which Mr.. Bare, be
fore leaving home had deposited about $1,000 IL
money which was thus fortunately but accldenily
saved. The Loss is very heavy.

Will you loan money to every man who asks
