That theory seems very unwieldly which
conceives of electricity as two fluids impon-
derable and undefnedly rare, quiet when
united, but intensely active when separa-
ted, and that all the violent effects are due
to the transfer of the fluids through bodies.
And this conception constantly manifests
itself in the statements of the laws and
phenomena Of electricity.
Few, it is believed, will object Htpfesent
to the view that tho electric force is mole
cuIar, that whatever doubt now exists az to
its precise nature and mode Of operation,
that it is connected with, and acts by and
through, those particles which chemistry
contemplates as atomic; that whatever
changes or descriptions are wrought by it,
are operations going on among those atoms;
and that electric discharge is not the trans
fer Of matter, but Of. some change along
the line of the discharge Of other correlat-
ed forces. All electrical excitement pre-
ceding discharge is state Of induction,
transferred according to Faraday along lines
Of particles to other bodies. This condi-
ton is one Of tension, and the tendency Of
particles is to undergo SONG change antag-
onistio TO cohesion, and consequently re-
sisted by their force; as long as cohesion
can resist the electric force, the condition
is statistical. If the tension rises to suf.
fcient degree, the parties yield and under
90 the change which the force requires.
This is discharge
The change In which consists discharge
will be violent in proportion to the degree
Of tension; and the characteristics Of the
change will depend upon the nature Of the
body The Substance may be split and
torn asunderAs in trees, ground to powder
or fractured as in glass or other brittle
bodies, melted as in metals, or chemically
separated n in compound bodies. These
various aedons are the equivalents of the
electric free, and are its correlative forms.
The ensrgy in that particular form we call
electricity has in each Of these cases Of
discharge been expended. AS cause II
has acted. and as such has disappeared

Venerable supporter Of Grant.

Great enthusiasm was created at the Da-
venport township polls, on the Fair Grounds
yesterday, by spectacle which would have
stirred the patriotic blood of every true
hearted American in the land.
In the afternoon lowseated buggy was
driven TO the polls by beautiful young
lady. BY her side was seated Deacon Gil
bert, father of E. s. Gilbert, Esq, after whom
Gilberttown was named.
Deacon Gilbert is upward of one hundred
years of age. He cast his first Presidential
vote in 1888, in the State of New Rork, for
George Washington, and has voted at every
Presidential election since that year.
Miss Holmes assisted the centenarian and
patriot to alight, and placing her arm in his,
accompanied him to the polls. He handed
an open, straight Republican ticket to the
Judges. AS he did so the bystandcrs broke
into cheers, which did not cease until three
times three had been given for the aged Re-
publican. followed by three more for the
young lady who accompanied him. The
citizens present gathered about the good old
man, and as they did so he said: Gentle
men, voted twice for George Washington.
He was the best man in his day. Now l
have voted for General Grant-thank God
that have lived so long-whom l believe
to he the hest man for President in this day.
lie vas instrumental in saving the govern
ment which Washington founded"
1t was no wonder that as the venerable
supporter of Washington AMI of Grant
what leap in time made his way to the
carriage again, with his beautiful friend up
on his arm, many in the crowd uncovered
their heads AS he seated himself the crowd
again broke into cheers, which continued
until Deacon Gilbert and his companion
were out of sight Davenport (I0aoa) Gazette.

THE MOTHER OF SCHUYLER CoLFAx.-
Mrs. Matthews, the mother of the Vice
President, has been for several weeks stop
ping with her friends in Philadelphia.
Like the mothers of nearly all our great
men, she is a noble woman, of great intel
lectual power. Mr.. Coliax owes much of
his success to his mother, and he fully ap-
preciates it. She is remarkably hale and
happy old lady, and rejoices in quiet way
over the success of her son.
Her only desire for his advancement seems
TO he that lie may be placed in position to
do more good. At lineage OF fifteen she was
married to Schuyler Colfax, the elder. At
the aye Of seventeen she was left widow,
with one child. Four months after the death
of his father Schuyler was born-the cider
child died in infancy.

The following is reply to the question where

Of whisky:
OFFICE OF INTERNAL REVENUE,
Washington, Nou. 4, 1863.
In answer have to say that while the return
called for by Section 81 cannot be required from
any person who had but fifty gallons or less of
distilled spirits in his possession on the let inst
this is nevertheless important to the ntcrcs is OF
such persons that their packages of such spirits
should be marked and stamped as prescribed in
that section otherwise the spirits being without
either the tax paid stamp or the stamp for stock
on hand would be in danger OF detention under
Section Al and perha ps of seizure and forfeiture
under the provision of section 81 for the
forfeiture of all distilled spirits found
after 80 days, in packages of more than
five gallons, without having thereon each the
mark and stamp required by this act. Section
So would, in such case, throw the burden of
proof on the claimants, and as probable cause for
seizure could doubtless in most cases be shown
to have existed, the expense and trouble to
which tie owner OF the spirits wonld be SUBJ
jected before he could recover his property,
would generally exceed its value. 1t would be
well to make this view OF the matter known to
those in your District whom it may concern.

rogatory to the rights of Spain will be promptly
arrested.
