Was it according to law for the Coun.
ty Commissioners to appropriate money
collected fora specific purpose, to another
fund2-RcgiS'er. NHT
The editor, it will be seen, does not
charge the Commissioners with making
this appropriation, but nsks whether such
an appropriation, was lawful. That is
what the editor doubtless thinks is sharp
practice. We now put the question square,

cation or "ifs, j" whether the Commission.
ers did make the appropriation, as he more
than halfway intimates they did, viii

The Eollpse-spots on the sun.

We are indebted to Col. G.. d
Harrington for the following inter,
esting facts relating to the eclipse
on Saturday, aud to certain chang.
es thet are now supposed to be TAX
ing place on the Sun:
The beginning Of the eclipse on
Saturday was at 4 O'Clock and 33
minutes greatest observation from
5 o'clock and 25 minutes to 5
O'Clock and % minutes; end of
eclipse at 6o'clock and 81 minutes.
The mercury in the thermometer
stood at the beginning oftLe eclipse
at 1850; at the greatest obscurity
at 81.
For several days there have been
visible with good glass, two well
defined spots on the sun's surface,
one well towards the upper, and
the other on the lower limb. The
larger one is very rapidly disappear
ing from view on account of the
suns axis motion. 1t crossed the
meridian on the 9th, at II hours 4
minutes and % seconds. Both of
these spots were obscurcd during
the eclipse. a.s.
English astronomers have recent
ly announced some very unusual
and violent changes taking place
on the sun. The appearance Of
new spots are doubtless some of the
accompanying phenomena. They
are presumed to be some of the ear.

Storm" whose return is announced
for 1870
On the Capitol Dome the mercu-
ry in the thermometer at the begin

PRIMARY ELECTION.

The Republican Primary Elections in
this county will be held on Saturday next
The numerous candidates for nomination
for the various offices 'haye stirred their
friends up pretty thoroughlyiand the can,
didates have worked themselves into n
fever heat, each one undoubtedly thinking
that be is the best qualified, and that he
has stronger claims upon the voters than
his opponents, and that great public and
private wrong will be done if he is not
nominated. For the especial interest of
aspirants for office, we do not know but
that the Democratic policy is best, for du-
ring the two years they have had control
Of tho legislation of the State they have
largely increased the number Of Offices and
we have little doubt but if they should lie
continued in power at Tire State Capital,
they would increase the number Of offices
TO the extent that there would be an office
for every hungry nspirAnt. But under
Republican regime il is inadmssable, md
somebody must go without Office, no diff.
erenoe how well qualified he may he, nor
how much selfsacrifce he may bo willing
to endure in giving the public the benefit
Of bic talent in the discharge Of some pub.
lie office.
There are not great many Offices to be
filed, and it requires the election Of but
one man 20 fll each office; therefore all |
cannot have their choice nominated aud il
there should be half dozen candidates.
for the same Office, but one could be le.
galy elected. Somebody has got to be
disappointed.
We hope, however, that after The nomi
nations are made, the smoke and dust that
has been raised during the primary elcc.
tion campaign will settle down and that
the defeated candidOt aud their friends
will unite their strength on the candidates
designated through the primary elections
and elect the entire ticket. We obtnincdo
most glorioua Republican victory at the
polls last Fall, and it would be bad policy
for US to fritter away our strength in such
manner as to give our political oppo
nonts advantage over u5. because wq have
not got our particular friends hckcted to Tie
contest in October If uHpleasantnesses
should have boen engendcred during this
conteet for nominations, let us drop it--let
us do unto others as we would have others
do unto us, ...
Now before the Primary Election per
hars every candidate expects to be non,i
mated, and II he should bq, he wants and
expects his oppoueHls to vote for him ia
Octoherj and he thinks now tll0t IL thoy /
should not do 50 they will violate their
pledge, and will act IN bad faiLh towards
him. Every candidate undoubtedly thinks
this.
The candidates before US are ali good /
men, competent to fil the position they \
desire, and whoever Of them may bo nom.
innted, let us unite onr strength upon them
and elect the entire ticket. We can do u,
Ought we not TO do it2

own. Rnt when he ceased 60 sue Amanda and
she commenced 70 sue him, he took HIM
self to pieces, At the suggestion Of his oouu-
sci, previous to his appearance as defendant,
he grubbed out his front hair, laid aside his
teeth, wore shabby clothes, and encouraged .
more generous color in his nose. He sowed
pimples and devoted himself to the cultivation
OF what he calls "arisplace," meaning erysipe-
las. he bestowed his attention on side issues,
encouraged blindness in his eyes, and endea-
vored to manufacture out Of his former self an
object which, in the eyes of juror, could
never have inspired spark of passion in tho
bosom Of a schoolmistress. The little locket,
however, which she seems to have kept night
and day next to her heart, was freely exhibit
ed in the court room, and the contrast between
the counterfeit presentment Of the gallant Of
former days and the withered-looking indivi-
dual who had been presented in the flesh, was
as striking as that pointed out by Hamlet be-
tween Hamlet's father and Hamlet's fathers
brother. Perhaps this may help to explain the
mystery Of how he wooed and won.
