AUDITORS CoNvENTIoN. There was d
convention of County Auditors in session
at, the Probate Court rooms yesterday
another close communion sort of affair,
such as they INDUCED in last spring.
About half of the counties were represent

.cussing the duties and powers OF County
Auditors, with view, we believe, to ask
ing for such additional legislation as may
be necessary to aid them in the perform

~ TIE FLAGS ON THE STATE HoUsE.-We
have frequently been asked why the two
hags float over the State House in Lhe win
ter. They are used as signals to designate
that the General Assembly is in session. :
If there be but one flag flying, one branch
has adjourned. If the flag on the north
staff be up and the other down, the House
has adjourned and the Senate is in session,
and uice versa. If both flags are displayed,
both branches are In session. II both down,
both Houses have adjourned. Now, do you
understand it?, al al, t.faa.f .sl15F 4
