The Proclamation,

We publish this morning the prccIama'
ton of General CANDY officially announ-
cling the result Of the elections held in thu
State on the 9th Of July last. Under the
law the Legislature is required to assemble
in this city on the fourth Tuesday after the
appearance of this proclamation; which
will be the 9Th Of October next.
Ii will be observed that the General an
nounces the appointment of GILBERT Z
WALKER to be Governor of Virginia on and
after the 2lst of this month, to fill the va-
cancy occasioned by the resignation of II
II. WELLS. The General now holds the
resignation of Governor WELLS, but pro-
badly dofers its acceptance and the success
sion of Governor WALKER to give reason
able time for preparation for the change.
It will also be seen that JOHN F. LEWIS
is appointed observation-disclosures OF the
State to fill the vacancy, to take effect upon
the assembling of the Legislature October
9Th. The date fixed upon is doubtless
owing to the fact that he is to preside over
the Senate.
JAMES C. TAYLOR, elected Attorncy-Gcn-
eral, is not appointed, and therefore is con-
sidered by General CANDY ineligible, not
being able to take the tcst-oath. He draws
o distinction between the members OF the
Legislature and the State officers. Con-
sress has directed that the Legislature may
do certain thing. and that is the authority
for their meeting and qualifying to do that
thing under the constitution just adopted
Not so with the State officers, of whom the
law requires nothing, and who it is con-
sidered can only hold Office professionally
prior to the admission of the State into the
Union, and must therefore take the test
onth.
The General, in Difference to the Will OF
the people of Virginia, has appointed the
gentlemen they have elected (omitting Mr..
TAYLOR for the reason stately for the lnte-
rim before the admission of the State into
the Union and the resumption of her pow
ers as n State.
The proclamation is quite explict--glT

A New Theory of the Aurora Boreau,.

DR.. A. W. Hall read a paper before the
Polytechnic branch of the American in
stitute, at the Cooper institute, on the
cause of auroral lights, in which he took
issue with Professor Loomis and other
scientists, who attribute these phenom-
ena TO electrical action. DR.. Halls the
ory is that the boreal display is produced
by the rays of the sun, which are re-
fiected from clouds surrounding the pole
to the ice and snow of the arctic regions,
and thence again reflected to the clouds,
and so back and forth, until it comes
within our range division. The glancing
and flashing of the columns of light, he
holds, are caused by the motion of the
clouds, an exact correspondence being
traceable, the doctor contends. between
the movements of the light and those of
the clouds. In confirmation of his the
ory the speaker cited the cases of similar
displays of auroral light in the east Just
before sunrise, and in the west Just after
sunset, when there are banks of clouds
visible, from which the suns rays are
evidently reflected. The arches or bows
often seen in the north are also easily
explained according to this hypothesis,
while by the electrical theory they are
nexplicable. The DETECTION of the
needle and other magnetic effects, some
times observed during an auroral dis
play, ale attributed by DR.. Hall to the
fact that the state of the atmosphere
most favorable for these successive re-
Elections of sunlight from the pole, is
also favorable for the action of the elec.
trical forces which produces the mag
netic disturbances.

the merchant think again. A partner
IN the hrm volunteered to remark that
he dld not see what they wanted
of such boy-he wasn't bipGer thor a
pint of cider?n But after consnltaaion
the boy was set to work. A few
days later call was made on the bov.
in the store for some one to stav ali

little fellow contrasted well with the
reluctance of others. In the middle of
the night the merchant lookedin to see

cashier got orders to double that bov,s

weeks elapsed before a show of wild
beasts passed through the streets. and
very naturally all hands in the store
rushed to witness the spectacle. A thief
saw his opportunity and entered the
rear door to seize something. but in a
twinkling was firmly clutched by the
diminutive clerk Aforesaid. and. after
a struggle, was captured. Not oniy was
robbery prevented, but valuable
articles taken from other stores recover
ed. When asked by the merchant why
he staid behind to watch when all Others
quit their work, the reply was, "You
told me never to leave the store when
others were absent, and thought I'd
stay" Orders were Immediately given

Historical Sketch of Woman's Voting.


Historical Sketch of Woman's Voting.
In the Agitator, a paper devoted to
woman's suffrage, and published at
Chicago, we find interesting briefe in
regard to women's voting:
In Manchester, England, eight wo-
men, whose names were by accidint
left on the registry, voted at the last
election. Eight others, freeholders.
voted in Southeast Lancashire. In
Ashford, East Kent, fifteen out of thir-
ty-five, who were registered, recorded
their votes. In Finsbury the same
number went to the polls. In Dublin,
one woman, and in Lancaster three wo-
men voted.
In Canada, as in several of our own
states, women are all allowed to votes
for and serve as school trustees.
In Pitcairn's Island-which is inhab-
tied by mutineers of the country-the
government, which is based on a writ
ten constitution, is shared on equal
terms by men and women alike.
Ladies of title formerly occupied
seats in the House of Lords, where
they were entitled as peeresses in their
own right, or when their Lords were
dead and the heirs were in their nom
age. They also held the office of High
Sheriff-which must be held by one
possessed of the electoral qualification
and other dignities.
1t has also been stated that the late
investigations tend to show that the
Pe'rliniament were originally founded
on the idea of universal suffiragr, the
manifestation of which was the show
ing of hands.
In the British Australian coluny of
Australia, women universally assum ed
the right to vote some four years ago.
having found that the law had, proba-
bly, inadvertently, been so framed as to
permit them. 1t works admirably ac-
cording to all reports.
In Sweden, chiefly through the exer-
tions of Frederika Bremen, an indirect
right of voting was, in 1862, granted to
all women possessing specified property
qualifications.
By the italian code, widow or wife
separated from her husband, who pays
taxes, is allowed to vote through such
child or other relative as she may de-
signate.
In Holland, widows or single women,
possessed of property, are entitled to
vote on all questions of taxation, etc.,
likely to affect its value
In 1867. Moravia granted the fran
chise to all widows who pay taxes.
In many towns in France, women
possess and exercise the right to vote
in municipal affoirs; and in one of them
it is said that the council was recently
composed wholly of women.
In Austaia, women can vote as no.
bles, in their corporated capacity as
nuns, and as taxpayers.
IN Hungary, up to 1S4S, widows and
single women, who were landed proprie-
tors, possessed the right to vote. They
were deprived of it by the Revolutiona-
ry Government, and they are now
petftioning in large numbers for the
reseoratieno of heright.
