MUNICIPAL osFIcE,-Tbe Legislature passed
an act at its late session, decla ring clergy men
ineligible to any municipal Office. 1t ia suppos.
cd that it's provisions were intended to apply to
the Board Of Public Education, but as that
organization is not municipal body, Its men,
bers are not effected by it, Hence Rev. George
F. Wswell and Rev. Leighton Coleman were
re elected at the recent school election. When
the editor Of the Gazette shows conclusively
that the Board of Education is a municipal
body or that the members of it hold Office I'M
der one, it will be time enough to denounce
the gentlemen in question, for Illegal conduct
or a disposition TO inculcate disobedience to
law. The Board has not been furnished GER
tiled copy of this act, (Which must have been
originated through the most petty feeling or
spi,e,) and in the meantime shall give to it the
Interpretation which common report warrants.
If the editor can show that the members of
the Board of Education are municipal Off
cers", we pledge him that the gentlemen In
question will not attempt to rebel in order to
hold the position to which the citizens have
elected them.

MOVING MACHINE TRIAL.
BRADFORD, July 10. 1866.

EDITOR NATIONAL OPINION -
Sr,-Being ut leisure this afternoon
| had the pleasure of witnessing the
trial between moving machines on
the farm Of Thos. Johnson, in your
town, and am free to say that a finer
exhibition of machines never saw.
There were ten machines exhibited
comprising-Bucl<eye, Union, Clip
per, and one or two other machines,
all of which were well handled and
did crcditable work.
In the first part of the afternoon
the work was performed on piece
Of low ground-ncver plowed, and
full of hummockS. and here was the
real trial. The Buckeye leading off
first, made a splendid turn, cutting
Il double swarth back without "a
hitch or clogs; other machines fol-
lowed suit, but did not leave so
smooth sward as the Buckeye ::
this machine leaving the sward
equally smooth in lodged places,
while the others, with the cxcep-
tons of the Uniom skipped badly.
a committee was then appointed
by j. +. Chamberlain, Esq, to de
eide upon the comparative merits of
the several machines. and piece OF
smooth upland selected for the final
trial.
Upon trial for draft the following
result was obtained:
Buckeye draft 100 pounds: length
of cut 1 feet % inches. Clipper
draft 100 pounds; length of cut
feet, giving the Buckeye machine
the credit of 30 pound sward il
draft while cutting over one fttl
more grass than the Clipper.
The comnittc however gave pref
crencc tothe Clipper machine, but as
far as | could ascertain by convers
ing with the people, (and a large
number were present to witness the
cXhibition) | think fully two third,
were decided that the Buckeye wa,
entitled to the preference.
One fact speaks well for the Buck
eye machine; eight were sold on til,
ground within two hours, and one o
them to a member Of the committee
: and as yet have learned of no sale
of other machines.
am not interested in any way il

GEN. GRANT AND THE PRESIDEN-
CY.-T he Washington correSpon-
dcnce of the New York HerGd has
the following, which, it will be noted,
processes to he authoritative:
alt may be stated positively that
General Grant will accept IA nomin-
alton for the Presidency for the next
term from no party or faction what
ever. His nomination would be
equivalent to an election, and his
election would necessarily lead to
his retirement from public life mt
the end of his term of Office. He
considers himself yet too young to
withdraw into retirement; and,
while he unquestionably has aspira-
tons for Presidential honors with
which tocrown his illustrious career,
he feels confident that he can enjoy
such honors eight or twelve more
years hence as readily as now
These ideas have recently been ex
pressed by him to his most intimate
personal fricnds,and are unqucstion
ably the ideas that will control him
Notwithstanding the powerful intln
enccs now being used to win his
consent to accept a nomination.

MOVING MACHINE TRIAL.-A
grand trial of moving machines was
had on the farm of Thomas johnson
on last Tuesday afternoon. The.u
were ten machines on the ground,
though the bone of contention as TO
the relative merits of the machines
was between thc'' Buckeye" the
"Clippcr,' of which there were
three machines of each kind
\ committee of seven was appoint
ed to take notes and report to the
crowd their opinion in the matter,
who unanimously decided that the
Clipper, all things considered, was
the best machine, that it did its
work the slickcst and the easiest.
&C., but on the score of durability
they would express no opinion, leav-
ing every man present to judge for
himself as to that matter. We left
ut four o'clock, at which time the
committee hadnOt reported. From
what we could see of the work of
both machines, we should say that
the preference between the two is
extremely small. Both cut wei! and
seemed to be easy for the team, but
from what we saw we should feel n
little inclined to dtlcrwith the com
mittcc and we think at least one half
of the crowd would do the same.
But at the same time we do not
hold ourselves to be il competent
Judge in such matters and no one
need attach any importance TO our
opinion, and probably will not. We
think the difference between the two
machines would be just about one
copper, and that is all.

DEATH OF SENATOR LANE.-FW'-
tier HUyhcHidis. Additional as
patches from Ic9vcnworth give the
particulars of the death of Senator
Lane, under circumstances which
leave ne doubt that it was done I'M
der Il III of mental arrangement, as
he is the third one of the family who
have committed suicide. One cause
which has been operating on his
mind is said to be the disappoint
ment which he experienced in find
ing that his political course, in in
dorsing and supporting the Presi-
dent, was not satisfactory to the
people of Kansas, and that his for
mcr friends hardly noticed him when
he returned to his home.
The circumstances of his death
are thus described:
"Senator Lane came up from st.
Louis on Friday last and went di-
rectly to the residence of Mr.. Mccall
upon the Government Farms. Be
fore leaving st. Louis his converse.
ton intimatcd a determination to
commit suicide, causing him to be
closely watched, his friends getting
possession ofhiS pocket knife, fearing
it might be used for the fatal pur.
pose.
On Sabbath afternoon he desired
to ride out. Mr.. Mccall brought
up his carriage and invited Mr.. Adj
ans to ride with them. After get
ting to the carriage Lane expressed
Il desire to return to his room for his
cane, refusing to allow any one t.
go for him. Returning with his can,
they drove upon the nights overlook
ing the fort and city. Lane enter
cd freely and chccrfully into til,
conversation, rcmarking upon thu
beauty of the city and landscape.
On returning they had to pas,
through Il gate that separated tw,
fields. Mccall alighted to open t.,
gate. Lane stepped down from tn,
carriage at the same time, passin,
around to its rear, said "Good.by
gentlemen" and instantly discharg
ed Il pistol with its muzzlc in hi
mouth. The ball passed ont at tn
top of his head, near the centre o
his skull, producing fatal wound.
