IpS The NEw CouEr HOUSE may bo considered
as completed, although there aro a number of small
matters that have boen overlooked or else have TO
be regarded as temporary. For instance, the stair
way, rather steps, leading to the befy and clock
room One flight Of these steps are not only rough
and imperfect, but without hand dral, and SO rick
city that they swing to and fro with the weight of
boy. Every visitor who desires to zoe the Court
House is naturally anxious fol 4 view from the
seeplc which is one of the finest in the country, ami
it is but right that the people whose house it is
should have the proper facilities for that purpose
Another defect that will yet have to be romedied is
the want of ven!ilator in the ceiling Of the court
room Experience has fully established the fact
that largo halla like tho court roo cannot be pro.
perly ventilated by leaving down the upper sash of
the windows. The columns, with their Corinthian
capitals the Judges seat, were only finished last
week. They add greatly 10 the architectural beauty
Of the room.
The furniture carpeting, &C., is all in place,
and the is ready for the purpose for which it
was intended. The FIRST court in the new building
will be commenced On Monday next, when the new
court room will be properly dedicated by an address
from Hon. Alex. Jordan, the Presiding Judge of the
district, who has SO long been associated with the
bench and bar The new Court House is structure
of which the people of Northumberland county have
a right to be proud not only on account Of the con.
venence and comfort it gives to all having business
in court or in the Offices but in the security it afford:

u notice calling meeting of the Board,
to be held on the 10Th inst, for the pur-
pose of appointing County Superinten-

meet those responsibilities, should be
taken into consideration. In other
words, pay the officer such salary as
his experience and ability would COM
mand in other occupations requiring the
same kind Of qualifications. If the
members of the Board are not already
acquainted with the wishes of the peo-
pie, they should be made acquainted by
those who take an interest in having our
schools prosper. But whether MAORI
ty Of the people Of the county desire it
or not, it is the law Of the State that we
shall have County Superintendent
that they shall perform certain duties,
and that they shall be paid for the dis
charge of those duties.
