head and theirs had been driven out bv the

mead and theirs had been driven out bv the
violence Of raging passions. Should that
question ever arise, it will be found to be
question of law for the court to decide, and
not question of fact to be submitted to the
people. The title to real estate is not vet H.
able to be decided BY a popular vote.
The last Star states that the present "court
house is large, elegant building" This is
certainly very important # true, and as no
other paper has the news, the Star deserves
no small credit for getting such valuable in
formation in advance of all its contempora-
r'es. What are its ideas Of elegance it would
be interesting to learn. II its editor has new
er seen any other court house, he is excusa-
bic for considering that an elegant one. But
If he has visited many others, he must have
exc'ted his imagination very powerfully be-
fore he could use the word elegant in connec-
ton with that building, and yet more before
he could write that 4" probably no other coun-
ty IN the State, Of the size and population
of Caledonia, can boast ofso good building.
1t has happened to the writer. in the course
Of his business, to have visited majority of
the court houses in the State. Among them
all. he rccollects but one Inferior to that at
Danvil!e. and that was in a county of small
cr population and less wealth than Caledonia
County; while several are as much superior
to that at Danville, as that is to an ordinary
loo cabin. The less that is said in regard to
elegance and commodiousness Of the court
house the better Ii will do well enough for
circulation out of the County to insist that it
is as "elesant" as any other in the State, but
people in the County know that it is far in
!erior to what it ought to be. VOTER.

ment was made to tie constitution, Of which
the following is copy;

be made to classify the volumes, either alpha

in looking through 80 pages for . title will
be acknowledged at once. Otherwise the
