Township oRcers~

The last Legislature established num-
Der of Township Offices, which were to
be filed by election, in March, but it was
neglected almost universally throughout
the Territory. The Secretary of the
Territory has been sending notices Of this
fact to the delinquent Townships. and
informing them that they may yet be or
ganized under that law. Names Of per.
sons were sent to the Governor, petition
ing him TO appoint them to the different
Offices, but we learn that he very proper
ly refused to do SO, and has decided to
leave the matter with the people, where it
belongs. We are also told that these
offices are to be filed by election, on the
first Monday in August, at the same time
that Lecompton is voted upon. We have
been requested to announce the following
candidates for the various Offices to be
6llsll. We have received assurances from
Iowa Point and Highland, that this is
the ticket of their choice The men are
all competent, and the candidates seem to
have been fairly distributed throughout
the Township =
Commissioners,
John Bayless, of Highland, Chairman,
C. Dorland, of White Cloud,
j. L. Pierce, of Iowa Point. IS
Constdbles, ,-..- 80.
Elisha Huffman, of White Cloud,
G. N. Deyine, of Highland,
E. Trump, of Iowa Point.
Treasurer,
e. B. Campbell. of Highland.
Clerk,
H. F. Macy, of White Cloud. =
Assessor,
D. S. Chapson, of Cedar Creek.
We recommend this ticket to every
voter, and recommend them also to place
either at the top or the bottom of the
ticket in big letters" PROPOSITION
Rejected" He is a Free State
candidate! All the above named persons
are reliable Free State men. and with a
little effort, can be elected by large ma
jority. The Township is entitled to four
Constables, but one was elected in March,
leaving three to be supplied. The pres
ent Constable is Mr.. Morrison, of Iowa
Point. He was elected as a Free State
man. At that time, it was the impress
ion Of some, that two Constables were to
be elected. Others said that but one was
to be chosen. Mr.. Morrison and Mr..
Huffman were placed on the ticket, and it
was generally understood, that if but one
was to be chosen, the successful candidate
would appoint the other his deputy. Mr..
Morrison received the most votes, and il
was decided that but one was to be cho-
sen. AS soon as SIR. Morrison was quail
lied, he turned round appointed Pro-
Slavery man Deputy. This was rather
scaly treatment of his friends, who had
used their utmost exertions to redeem the
Township from Pro-Slavery rule, under
which, at one time, a Free State mar
placed his life in jeopardy by entering
the Township. We are told that Mr.
Morrison has left the Territory, leaving
the entire business of his Office in thu
hands of his Deputy. We have no doub
the latter is an honest man, but this is no
the clean thing. Such favor would no
be shown the Free State party, if theil
opponents were in power.

E Our unknown friend in Brown
County, whose communication appears
this week, neglected to furnish us with
his name. Had It not been that his ar
ticle contains items of local interest, and
matters which can possibly give no Of
fence to any one. he would not have seen
It in print. Correspondents will please
bear this in mind. If they cannot trust
us with their names, they will have no
right to think hard of it, if We reject
their communications.

commences the 29th year of its publica-
ton. This faEorite Book paid its regu-

for. by the readers of a former generation,
as by those of the present day, when per-
haps large majority of the latter were
yet unborn. How many of the readers
of this Book. in 1880, would know its
face now, if they have not kept mp its
acquaintance since that time?

EE The Liquor Shop excitement was
up in this place again, last week. A
meeting was held on Thursday morning,
and Committee appointed, who waited
upon the keepers of liquor shops, and
ordered them to close up by I o'clock in
the evening. No attention was paid to
the order and in the evening another
meeting was held, at which nothing was
done but wrangling. The meeting broke
up, and the liquor shops-keep open. A
similar movement, with precisely SINH
lar result, was made nearly year ago.

OBSOLETE WoRDs.-Professor Geo. p. Marsh
stated in his lecture, delivered before the
New York Historical Society on Monday, that
out Of the less than six thousand words in the
English Bible not two hundred had become OBJ
solete; of the fifteen thousand employed BY
Shakespeare not more than FIVE or six hundred
had changed their meaning and of the eight
thousand in Milton's poetical works, scarcely
hundred were less familiar than when he used
them. Yet many words in his prose works, and
in other writers of his day, had been laid
aside Many words had come into the language
and some passed into dsuse. The art of arch
cry had introduced many terms into the Ian
guage, as we'll as such surnames as Bowyer,
Archer, Fletcher. Five hundred words connec-
ted with FAX and wool manufacture had been
superseded, and cotton and wooden factories had
deprived US of FIVE per cent. of our household
words.
Translators of books had found it necessary
to introduce terms of which they could not ex-
press the meaning Din English. Other words
had suddenly started in use. Coincidence was
introduced by the circumstance Of the death of
Adams and Jefferson on the seml-centennial an
niversary Of the National Independence. Out
siders came into use from the occurrences at the
National Convention which nominated Franklin

country to meet a necessity. Co'ne-onier had

We are acquiring strong liking for French
examinations we discourage home manufacture
of words and encourage importation. But
there will be a reaction. The fluctuations of
our language are in the Romantic portion and
but few in the Anglo-Saxon. In periodical
Literature he had found many words and phrases
not in any dictionary--such as Photographic en-
CRAVING, prospecting for gold, go-aheGa people,
speaking terms, rendition Of a piece Of music,
concertizing in the West, handsomely put on

terms are bad and will be cphemeral, but somc
Of them will find q place in dictionaries,

VIBRATIONS OF THE EARTH.--Professor Mitch
ell in recent lecture, describing the gradual
tendency of the earth s orbit to assume the cir
cular form, said its short diameter was gradu
ally lengthening, and would continue so to ex-
pand until it should become perfectly circular,
when 1t would again contract to its original
shape and dimensions. And SO the earth would
vibrate periodically, and these periods were
measured by millions upon millions of years.
" Thus" says Professor Mitchell, " the earth
will continue to swing back and forth, and to
and fro, in the heavens like a great pendulum
pealing the seconds of eternity

BILE to crystalize and the crystals will 80 arrange
themselves that the article manufactured will
be likely to break off short when put to bear
any great pressure The remedy for this is
" chilling" which is done by suddenly cooling
the outer edge of the piece, or the parton which
the strain will come, and letting the other cool
gradually. If, however, the casting is large,
this chilling, by the sudden contraction If such
mass, often cracks the piece and renders it
less. Many proposals have been made to obvi-
ate the difficulty, but none are thoroughly sue
cessful. 1t is possible to make such castings as
railroad car wheels and axle boxes with chilled
surfaces, and wherever they have been used,
they have answered SO well that they are now
in almost general use
