IMPORTANT LEGAL QUEsrIoN.-A import
ant legal question will probably soon be
tested in the Courts of this county, which, SO
far as we. are aware, has never been tried
under the Ohio laws. 1t appears that one of
our wealthiest.citzens has, through a mis-
take in the Auditor, been paying taxes on a
lot belonging to another for fifteen consecu-
tive years, until the whole tax, with six per
cent. interest, now amounts to about 81 900.
The mistake, however has recently been
discovered, and the party owning the land,
although willing to pay back the amount of
the tax, will not pay any interest on it, and
suit will be the probable consequence,
The lot in question is worth $4,000, and the
parties are both wealthy, neither knowing
how many lots he owns, or where all his real
estate lies, and hence the mistake.

complaining of the neglect of many clerks
and others, whose duty it is, to transmit to
him statistics Of the free schools, and con-
tains the following reference to penalties
provided IN such cases, and which will here
after be enforced: se
In case the Directors in any ub-district
shall fail to take and return the enumera-
ton required, the expense of taking the
same may be recovered from them in n civil
action, before any Court having jurisdiction
tin such matters
"lf school teachers neglect to make the re-
ports required of them, they forfeit the full
amount of their salaries. If Boards of Edu-
cation and Auditors fail to make the proper
returns, their townships and counties can
not lawfully share any portion of the State
school funds but these officers are held
responsible for the amounts which would
have been apportioned to their respective
townships and counties, had the proper
reports been rendered. [See sections 8, Is
and AZ. -
Section 40 declares that in case the County
Auditor shall fail, from any cause, to make
return of the abstract as aforesaid, it shall
be the duty of the County Commissioners
to deduct, for every such failure, from the
annual salary, or allowance made to the
Auditor for his services, the sum of fifty
dollars
The law is decided and emphatic in for
bidding that funds be apportioned to such
townships and counties as fail to make the
reports required.
There are also other sections in regard to
the above subject, but we have given the
important portion of the law. School teach
ers and others can, therefore, govern them

Paul ms n Man - DR.. Durbin,s Lecture,
The opening lecture Of the Mercantile
Library series for the winter, was delivered
last evening, by the Rev. J. p Durbin, to
probably a remunerative audience. The
subject was: "Paul considered as a Man, not
an Apostle"
Saul or Paul, of Tarsus, is the only one of
the Apostles of whose existence profane
history retains any record. OF his residence
at Rome there are certain memorials which
contain hints of his manner and appearance
sufficient, added to what he says of himself
to convey q tolerable distinct idea of his
person. He was low in stature, bald-headed,
and hook-nosed. His figure was mean and
uncommanding, his voice broken and inhar-
monious, and his gait unsteady. He was
subject TO fits, and was afflicted with an in
durable malady, of whose character he does
not inform u.s.
Paul appears to have been person of re-
spectacle family, as, although of Hebrew ex-
traction and born in a conquered country
he was-if such thing be possible-a free
born Roman citizen. He was educated at
TaIsus in the theology of the Jews, with
smattering of Grecian literature and philos-
ophy. Like most of his nation, he was in
religion bigot and a Temorseless perse-
cutor, not without a certain lenity in his
morals, which, on certain occasions he en-
deayors to palliate. His system of doctrine
If system it can be called-was an undi-
gested mixture of Hebrew traditions with
sCrapssof both the Platonic and Aristotlean
PHILOSOPHERS. Having rather a fondness
than a capacity for metaphysical pursuits
his speculations are almost always obscure
and not unfTequently inconsistent.
Yet Paul was q character, and left by his
acts and his writings broad mark unn~ ~
49, ---' ~ mankind. Become a convert '1e to
3
new and unpopular form of belief, he was
enabled so to temper his zeal with discre-
ton as to preserve his life in the midst of a
city where his faith found but few powerful
protectors, and to place himself IN the posi-
tlon OF the doctrinal head of church that
was destined to overgrow and root out
every other religion known to the people
among whom il was thus introduced.
Inc Paul OF DR.. Durbin was such char
acler as pious gentleman would love TO
deseribe-having for its basis the meageg.
skeleton to be found in the Acts and filed
up by the aid of a somewhat vivid imarina-
ton. 1t was certainly very fine, and greatly
to he admired; the only question being.
whether it was in reality Paul. It was
pleasant to observe how much could be
made out of so small portion ofmateriaIs,
and upon what slender hints shining Quail
tues and consummate wisdom could be in
Ierred; and in listening TO it we were often
reminded of the labors of those pious monks
who, upon, perhaps, nothing more substan-
tial than ahalf-legible inscription upon an an
clent tombstone, were enabled to reconstruct
the biography of ong-forgotten saint, with
a full description of his lifelong travels.

The Cincinnati Commerciaz saws :.

The news from the Doubtful States is
amusing. The opposing factions of the
Democracy seem ardently engaged in the
good work of arranging matters SO that the
Republicans will carry every free State in
the Confederaey, not even excepting Cali
fornia. The proposed fusions between the
factions in Pennsylvania is utterly repudia-
ted By Forney Il Co. The Brooks and
Hunt operation in New York has thrown
enough Americans into the Republican
ranks to give the Republicans clean ma
jority in that State. In New Jersey there
is political quadrilateral, the Republicans
holding the corner which commands the
field. If such a thing be possible, the De-
mocraey of California will fix up the vote
of that State for Lincoln. Will those who
propose to dissolve the Union when Mr..
Lincoln is elected President, take especial
notice?
The Emporia news. [volume] (Emporia, Kan.) 1859-1881, 1860-09-01

Garibaldi has invaded Naples. Nothing
definite is yet known in regard to the sue
cess which attended this movement, but it
is anticipated that he would meet with but
little opposition. He has also declared his
intention of revolutionizing Venetia. This
has alarmed Austria, and 100, 900 trooos of
the line have been transferred to Venice to
krep the populace in check, and resist the
attempts of Garibaldi. It is thought that
the end will be war between combined
Italy on the one. hand and Austria on the
other. The next steamer will probably
bling news of hard fighting, and. we hope.
of the success of the Italian hero.

BRECKENRIDGE COUNTY.

We have condensed, from the returns of
the Assessor, and obtained from other
sources, the following statement of the con-
dition of Breckenridge County:
The whole number of acres of land COM
prised within the limits OF Breckenridge
County, is 500, $50; of this number 81 / 200
-acres-or over one third of the whole num-
ber-are contained in the Kaw Indian reserve
on the northwest, and the Sac and Fox Re-
serve on the East. There also IS, eco acres
reserved for school purposes. This leaves
349,4 400 acres of land subject to purchase
and settlement. The whole number of acres
pre-empted, purchased from government
and thus subject to taxation, as returned by
the Assessor. is 100. 488-leaving 1922
acres-less the number contained in the
different town sites, and which are not con-
tanned in the sbove-of government land
IN the county subject to entry. Il is quite
probable that there have been many entries
OF land of which the Assessor could not
obtain any account. The taxable land is
divided amongst the several townships of
the county as follows: Waterloo. 35. 896 :;
Jackson, S4.29l Fremont, $500; EN-
poria, 98.669: Pike, 98.537; Agnes City.
1859; Americas, 1896. The average
value per acre in the county, is s2.97 3.
while the valuation of land in the several
townships is as follows: Waterloo, Sll3,
III; EmPoria. Sio5. 55I Jackson, slO2,
