climatic Changes ON the Earth.

II is now pretty well established that
the earth has two more motions than its
diurnal motion, ia which the Globe turns
on its axis every twenty.fOur hours, caus-

revolution round the sun, which takes 1865
days hours, 49 minutes ST. seconds TO
accomplish. Third, the motion of whole
solar system in space; that is, the earth,
with all the planets and stars moving round

More About the Degeneracy OF
the Stage.

The New York Tribune Of the 9th says /,
The torrent OF frivolty, nastiness, ant
morbid sensationt lism which has nearly
swept tho legitimate drama from the stage,
was the themo Of an instructive debate re-
Gently in tho French Senate. A petition
had Beef presented that, in vic% bf The de.
plorable condition OF theatrical affairs, two
of the playhouses which receive subven-
tions from the government should be re.
quired to present at least, once week.,
some piece Of standard merit. But it was
shown in the course Of the debate that
pieces of standard merit do not pay. Rai
cine and Moliere would be played every
night, If the public did not prefer Offen-
bach. The fault OF the present degrada.-
tion of the drama is in the public rather
than in the managers. .u...5ss
In lS49, NJ. Ledru Rollin, then Minister To-
the Interior, ordered that the Theatre FraH.'
cais should give once week u master.

among the applicants. Rachel played,
and the high government funoti0narieB
made point of attending. Here was good
test OF the public taste. Well, what was
the result The public would nat go to
hear the performances, and most of those
who obtained free tickets tried to barter
them away for bread or wine.
We may be sure OF one thing, managers
are the best Judges Of the popular taste,
and the ballet would soon be banished

The vitiated taste is partly one of their

Look to Your Titles /!

.4----f ~ PIX, 20
r may notbe generally known that the title to
i a large portion Of the Real Estate in Wood
County is defective-but such is the fact. These
defects arise from misdeseripton of the prop
erty, informal execution and acknowledgment
Of con Veyances, unrecorded deeds, tax sales and
titles Judgment liens, irregularities In sales under
execution, mortgages, &c.
Hundreds of mortgages and other membranes
upon lands remain uncanceled on the records,
although the debts they were given to secure have
probably been paid Thousands of tax sales have
been made, incumbering lands and lots, many of
which have been redeemed but not cancelled, bot
large number still xist validliens the prop
erty sold. Over 1900 of the deeds on our county
records are either enormously executed, or
wrongly yree0rded-mpstof of the errors undoubtedly
in the making Of the deeds, but many in the
recording of them.
In view of these facts, we are preparing, and
have nearly completed, at great expense and inn
mense labor, a complete abstract of the title to
every tract of land and town lot in the county,
giving the original entries and purchases from tie
State and United States, date of the deeds, kind
OF conveyance, consideration, full description OF
the land, where deed executed, date of record,
book and page where recorded, number Of Wit
nesses, number of seals, amount Of revenue stamp,
&c. .,-,-..f.,.,., '' ~ ''
So complete win these Abstracts be, that if
every bnok in the Recorders Office destroyed,
an accurate description OF every instrument re-
corded there, could be procured from our Office.
With these ,faeilities ke are prepared, on the
shortest notice, to give all necessary information,
and wrften abstracts of tie at reasonable prices,
10 all who may desire the same.
With these Abstracts before us, we also have
facilities for preparing conVeyances Of every de-
seriptiou, uleqUaled by apy other Office in the
county, and which will be made cut by Us at usual
rates. Wewill give special attention to renedying
defects ntitles, removing membranes, procuring
lost deeds,y getting original patent or, copies, of
sanlei and peftecting titles generally. JIi 4
Every owner of Real Estate should know the
l history OF his title 10 sane aud that il Is cor
rectly placed on the record and every prudent
man will refuse 10 buy apy lakds or. lots without
