simplicity, strength and durability so much
that any set OF field hands can work IL with
good success. 1 claim for my invention, over
the Utley and all other presses, this, viz: My

bars as soon as the levers are applied, hold
fast and forces the follower down with great

bered for its extreme and prolonged heat.

ing everywhere. Among Others by whom
its effects will still continue to be severely
felt, are the new farmers among the Indians
of the Agencies under the care of Friends.
From Friend Ellis weather article we quote
the following:
"A private letter received just after our
review of Seventh month was closed, and
bearing date Santes Indian agency, Nebraska,
Seventh month, goth, contained the follow
ing paragraph: il
"We have had great deal of hot, dry
weather. Yesterday the mercury rose to 112
degrees in the shade, and at half past six
o'clock in the evening, when the sun got
around to shine on it, it rose to 1873 degrees.
To-day it is quite cOol-the mercury did not
reach 80 degrees. 10
This Agency is one of those under the
care of Friends. 1t is ststed that the effect
of this heat on the crops is and will be such
that, were the Indians who have been fondly
looking forward to the result of their agri-
cultural labors left to depend for subsistence
on these, without outside aid, they would
positively starve."

MR.. EDITOR erary curiosity 1
send you the proceear.,.- of the new Conser-
vative commissioners of Randolph who quail.
ified the 5th Sept, inst. 20,
Sheriff Trogdon rendered his official bond
on said day and the said commissioners re-
fused to accept said bonds on the ground
that Trogdon's term of office expired on
this day and that T. F. Rush having been
elected sheriff on the 4th of August last was
in law the sheriff of Randolph county. There
was no objection to the penalty of the bonds
or the sufficiency OF the securities, an objec-
was, however, made to the bonds on the
ground that the securities qualified before
the chairman of the board of the former
commissioners, but the main ground of OBJ
lection was the first-that Trogdon's term
expired on the 9TH of September, 1870, and
that by virtue of the act of Assembly, rati-
fed in March 1870, that Rush was elected
sheriff
On the evening of the 9th September and
I after Trogdon's counsel lett Asheboro' there
was another record made relative to the
sheriffs, to wit:
That the office of sheriff, held by r. F.
Trogdon, be declared vacant by reason of
the refusal of said Trogdon to renew his of
fetal bonds in accordance with Sec. 3, Chap.
169, OF the acts of the General Assembly,
ratified March 2Sth, 1870, and by reason of
the failure of said Trogdon to produce the
receipts OF the Public Treasurer. sc. 1t is
ordered and adjudged that 2. F. Rush be
appointed to fill the vacancy created by the
failure and refusal of said Trogdon to COM
ply with the provisions of Sec. 3, Chap. 169
of the acts of the General Assembly, ratified
March 2Sth, 1870, and Sec. 9, Chap. 105,
Revised Code, in the event that the said
Trogdon could hold over as claimed by
him.
The above is not full copy of the non
sense as the record Will show, but let US see
1st Trogdon's term expires and Rush is
the sheriff by act of the General Assembly.
end. Trogdon's term is declared vacant
and Rush is appointed sheriff.
3rd Trogdon rendered his bonds and did
not tender his bonds.
If this is Conservative rule, if this is the
girtue and intelligence of the county, save US
from ignorance.
Randolph is rising.
might further add that all these records
were made at the instance of the lawyer,
Samuel, whose dictates are law to the pre-
sent commissioners.

An Important Movement.
petition is now in circulation in Cana
da, and similar one will probably be pre-
pared and circulated in the Lower Provinces,
asking the Sovereign of England to appoint
eleven commissioners in England to repre-
sent her interests; eleven commissioners in
Canada to represent the interest of the Do
minion, to meet in convention in November
next, in New York or Montreal, with eleven
commissioners to be appointed by the Pres
ident of the United States. The topics for
discussion by the Commission will be the
relations between England and her colonies
in America: between the Colonies and the
United States; between England and the
United States and, lastly, as between the
three countries, the question Of the future Of
North america" The aim of the convention
will be " to obtain the sense of the three
peoples as to, first, the retention or modif-
cation of the present system; or, second, the
establishment of an Independent dominion,
with or without British alliance, or under
the protectorate of Grfat Britain, or that of
Great Britain and tae United States or,
third, the union of British america aoith the
United States, England consenting"
1t is proposed that the commission shall
be paid only their actual expenses; that the
deliberations shall be public, and that no
general,report be adopted, unless by ma
jority of every delegation, but each delega-
ton to report upon the entire subsection to
the government of its country, such reports
becoming thus the ground aoork of future
action"
These are the general objects of the pc
tition now in circulation in Canada, to
which it is proposed to secure the sigma
lures of at least one hundred thousand OF
the people of that country before it is car
ried to England and presented to the Sow.

Out on the Pacific Railroad, the other day,
Kickapoo Indian saw a locomotive coming
down the track toward him at the rate. of
forty miles hn hour. He thought it was an
imported breed of buffalo, and lie was anx-
ious to secure it so as to take the prize at
the annual exhibition of the Kickapoo Ag-
ricultural Society. So he fastened one end
of his lasso to his waist-belt, and when the
engine got near enough he threw the moose
nicely over the smoke stack. Perhaps it is
not necessary, but we may as we'll relate that
the locomotive did not stop. The engineer
and fireman witnessed the most successful
attempt to do the flying trapeze made by
any Kickapoo Indian upon the plains since
the first of last January. There was an abo-
rigina1 funeral at the next station when the
engine arrived. The grave was not large,
for they only buried small piece of copper
colored meat tied to string and enclosed
in sardine box.

Is SUMAC CoMBUsTIBLE AS sumac is
very important article of commerce with US,
and number of our citizens are largely en-
gagged in preparing it for market, the ques-
tion whether it is liable to Spontaneous
combustion" or not is an interesting one. A
week or so ago large lot was burned at
Tappahannock, and the impression there, Is
already stated in the Wing, is that the fire
was occasioned by the combustion of the
sumac. The Fredericksburg Herald says
that some years ago Mr.. Hurkamp, the pio-
neer in that business in this State, lost
quantity in this way, and had in conse-
quence his storehouses so constructed as to
give the sumoc free ventilation. Knox e
Brother and another party of the same town
found that this was the case with some
they had stored away before it was prop
ely cured. IF the sumac be properly cured
before stored in bulk there is no danger, it
is said, of combustion Whig.

How to Make Blonde out of a Brunette.
/ have learned some interesting details of
blonde manufacture l heard much this
summer of manufactured blondes, and one
was pointed out to me as unquestionably a
manufactured article. l believed it vaguely,
but my interest in the matter was aroused
one day recently, when called on friend
in the city and saw most wonderful change
in her. Her hair, week ago light brown,
was almost light, with decided tinge of
red in it. l asked explanations, and they
were frankly given: she was undergoing the
process of being changed into blonde She
told me something of the process. The
hair is first shampooned to cleane it thor
oughly of all grease and dirt, and then the
liquid is applied to few strands of hair at
time. The liquid is colorless and war
ranted harmless, of course. The hair first
turns red, and then gradually grows lighter.
My friend logically and good-humoredly le-
plies to remonstrances, that her hair is her
own; her husband likes light hair; that she
is assured by the highest authority among
hair dressers that the application is not in
furious to hair or health. The process costs
where long, thick suit of hair is to be
colored, one hundred and fifty dollars
