We are not without anxiety rs to tho effect

lar to the GreunbrIer cases was also de.
eIded, the sheriff OF that county having

ruling Of Judge Thos. W. HarrI>
son OF the Harrison Circuit. The
action OF the Court was The same
as In the other cases, reversing
that Of The Court below. The opln.
Ion was pronounced by Judge Brown
We did not hear and have not seen this
opinion, but are informed Judge Brown
entered somewhat more Into the reason
OF The decision than Judge Maxwell,
holding that the officer had q vested
right In bis o1lce, and could not be de.
prlved OF 1t without sufficient cause;
(which the erasurO OF his nam0
from the registry was noti) that
the action Of the Court below
was nulllty; that the removal
attempted was no removal at all, and
the officer had simply been wrOugtully
kept out OF his office and no order OF
tho Court was needed to restore him.
The rsbuke Administered by these de-
cIsIons is severe one. We hope 1t
will be appreciated, II not By the
Judge Harrison themselves, at least
by the public.

In West Virginia there Is a stringent
test law by which participants In the
late rebellion are prohibited from vot-
ing. The Republican party are thus
very largely In the majority. II Ia the
opinion ofthe prominent men Of the
State that the restriction has been de-
manded for the protection OF the loyal
part OF the community, but they feel
that such protection is no longer need
ed. II Is now proposed that the next
Legislature shall adopt steps for the
