Popaiarizing the system.

The House If Delegates on yesterday
amended the School Law so as to allow
the Judges OF the Circuit Courts to ap-
point the County Super nterdents with
iu their respective districts. This has
the look of very small piece of Bipartisan
meanuess Because there happen to be
a few counties in the State which the
REGISTRATION law can't make Radical ,
those counties are not to have such
school officers as the people want, but
ere to have obnoxious officials thrust
upon them through the agency of Re-
publican judge.
We are to infer that, as far as the
Legislature can control the subject, the
people are not to choose their own otl-
Gers unless they will agree to choose
Rrpubiican officers. In this particular
ipstsuce the action of that body Will
NOT tend To- make the school system par
ticularly popular. The Radicals are
continually prating about the Opposi-
ton Democrats to free schools, and at
the same time they are striving to make
the system 80 thoroughly partisan III
lis operation rs to compel every decent
man 10 deAounce it, no matter how

The JudgeshiP.

Tue Governor on yesterday delivered
N. opinion upon the contested Judge
ship of this District.
By the votes upon which there was no
question it was claimed by the present
incumbent that he had two majority
Bn' Of the disputed votes there were
six. a. follows: three ~. w. PAUL." two
"a W. PAUL." and one "Mr. PAUL."
The persons who had voted the j. W.
PAUL. and A. w. PAUL. tickets were
brought before the Governor, and, be-
ing sworn, upon their oaths stated that
tbcy had intended to vote fJr MT
PArIL. the lawyer in Wheeling, for
Judge: and three stated that they
thought his name was j. w. PAUL.,
the two that they thought his name
was A. W. PAUL.. But the Governor
in hls wisdom ruled that he could not
take their sworn statements, and threw
these five votes out-thus, in effect,
giving them TO the present incumbent
The Governor then announced that this
would give the incumbent two maJori-
IT, He then stated that there was a
difference of count between the In
sprctors of Election in TriadeIphla
township and the Board of Supervisors
ot Ohio coulty amounting to 80 votes
Tie inspectors return originally gave
Mr. PAUL.. 10 majority in that township.
The Supervisors recounted the votes
and found ~ majority for Mr.. PAUL.,
The Governor corrects the return of the
drst, gives Mr.. PAUL. IA majority In
Triadelphia, and declares this to be
the true return. In other words, he
denies the right OF the Supervisors 10
correct the Triadelphis returns, and
then exercises that right himself. The
reason assigned is that the Inspectors OF
Election were acting under oath and
the Supervisors were not; therefore he
wonld take the count of the inspectors
Shich he don't take after all, but sub
,tltutes one of his own.
Query. If the Supervisors were not
acting under oath, and for that reason
could not make reliable returns, how
can the Governors decision be relied
upon, who was no more under oath
Than were the Supervisors y
He then announced that he would
give the certificate to the incumbent.
The Governor said nothing abogt the
difference of count in Centre township
which was five in favor of the incum-
bent, and one in Liberty township also
IN his favor.
Here he had no hesitancy i'll taking
The count of the supervisors IN prefer
ence to the count of the inspectors.
Were they acting under oath in these
two cases and not in the otherf

and now you don't.

The champion eater" of the United
States is Joshua Plumb. A few days
ago he entered restaurant in Hudson,
N. Y, and offered to eat all that any one
would offer to pay for. The challenge
having been accepted, he disposed OF
the following articles: Ten pieces OF
apple pie, six corn cakes, a quarter of a
nound of crackers, six cups of peanuts,
thirty picked CLAIMS, four lemons, an
ounce of candy, and two bowls of clam
SOUP. He then drank six tumblers OF
water, and offered to eat one hundred
raw oysters. No one doubted his ability
to accomplish the feat, but no one was
willing to pay for the oysters, and so ne I,
went off grumbling that he wasn't hal
full.

The rumor that George Bancroft, the
American ambassador in Berlin, was
counting the youngest daughter of Gia-
como Meyerbeer, has been traced to the
famous Louisa Muhlback (Clsra MundD
who wished to make Mr.. Bancreft's ac-
quaintance, but was informed that the
historian and ambassador had refused to
comply with her wishes in a rather dis
dainful manner. Being of most iras-
chile and vindictive temper, and having
also an old grudge against Mile Meyer
beer, Madame Mundt circulated in Ber-
lin the story that Bancroft wanted to
marry Meyerbeer's daughter. The
mother of the young lady has written a
very indignant letter to the authoress
of Joseph the Second" and Louisa of
Prussia" The story is themore curious
from the fact that Mrs. Bancroft is with
her husband in Berlin.
