RaT The Aita of Tuesday has sensible Or
ticle on the selection and duties of coroners, a
part of which is as follows
"But it was not 80 much in regard to the ey-
penses Of the Coroner's Office, or even the man
ner in which inquests are held and cases deci-
ded upon that we proposed to speak at present
In New York. in Iondon and we think in
nearly all the large cities of the Union, the Cor
oners Office is filled as it ought to be'everywhcxe
by medical man. A medical man we'll estab-
liShed in his profession, and man Of Judgment
as we'll as medical education always ought to
occupy such position. The Coroner should
be man who himself understands the effects
of disease, or wounds, or poisons upon the hu-
man frame, and be able to discriminate at once
between cases that require post-mortcm exam
nations, and those which do not, and when
those examinations are made the Coroner is
the man who should make them This has
been found to operate 80 we'll in the older cit
les, and the advantages that would arise from
such System here are so evident that it is 10
be hoped the parties in making their nomna-
tions for municipal officers Will take this mat
ter into consideration"
We agree with the -4lta as to the class of
men who should be selected as coroners. The
whig convention, unwisely we think, left this
Office vacant Oh the ticket-not for any quail
fcations of the democratic nominee, but for
want of all applicant. Dr. Overton is spoken
of by his friends as one well-ftted to supply the
omission, and we respectfully recommend to
the county central committee, that his name be
put on the regular whig ticket.

About one year ago that part OF Nevada
lying between Deer Creek and Little Deer
Creek, had fallen almost entirely into dilap
idasiou. with the exception ofa few honses
around and near Adams & Co.'S express
Office. Now a string Of comfortable resi-
dences extend out to the corporation line,
near half mile from the Main street
bridge-and more are still going up. This
is now delightful portion of the town.
The hill north of Main street, between
Deer Creek and Red Ravine is also i'm
proving in like manner, forming an array
OF pleasant cottages that speak much for
the increase of our population, as well as
the permanent improvements of the place.

H6r We visited our school one day this
week. apd, although the exceeding hot weather
makes some difference in the attendance, we
found them still with respectable .umber'
We were glad to see some material improve
ments about the house and grounds.
We would here however call to mind one
fact. There are over hundred children be-
tween and l8 years of age in and around Ne
vada that have never attended any school here
The expense of our school is merely nominal
and all persons should avail themselves of its
advantages.
Miss Mather, the excellent female teacher
we regret to say, has not enjoyed good health
recently, though she is now in the discharge ol
her duties.
