CINCINNATI, March 1.-THE celehra-
ton of St. Patricks Day will be partici-
pated in by the numerous delegations
from the various cities and towns within
q radius of a hundred miles, but the slip
perry condition Of the streets and the in
tense cold will doubtless quite change
the character of the display. The wind
set northwest last night and blew in
tensely cold. The mercury this morn
Ing is &c degrees above zero. Pedes-
trianism is very difficult and a number
of accidents are occurring. More snow
is threatened, and the heaviness of the
fall throughout the West within the last
twenty-four hours gives rise to the appre-
hension that there will be serious flood.

The sun spots.

A correspondent of the London Tines
writes
On Thursdy, February 10th instant,
there were not less than eight groups of
spots visible on the sun, some Of them of
enormous magnitude. OF these groups
four were situated in the suns northern
hemisphere, twoin his equatorial regions,
and two in his southern hemispheres;
and the largest single spot lin the north
ern hemisphere had length Of 2 min.
of arc By mean breadth Of min,
which, in other words, is equivalent to a
SUPERFICIAL area Of not less than one

parallel with his equator, each group sep

We endeavor at all times to attend to
our own business and not TO interfere
with our neighbors, unless it is made a
part of our duty to do SO. If the course
of newspapers in the city is calculated to
mislead public opinion, it matters not
whether they have said or done anything
that requires censure at our hands; the
fact of their silence is enough to compel
us to ask Why is this thusly?
Now, the Avalanche was heretofore
wont always to lead off. Never before

has gone wrong with our neighbor, and
it appears to be resting on his mind.
Ever and anon he will refer to his defeat
of few months ago, as if 1t were still
sticking in his craw. We make it a rule
never to take anything to heart that can
not be kicked off at our heels. Let us
forget the past and look forward to an
inviting future. This thing Of nursing
old grievances is not altogether manly
or judicious. When the Avalanche says
it viii support the best men for county
Offices, we are still in doubt as to whom
il considers the most suitable of the
various candidates, Win it go for Wright
or Curry in the contest for Sheriff p? viii

are the questions that require answering,

said TO be a source Of information to
people who themselves are bound TO act
soon upon this important public business.

To the Citizens of Shelby County:
Having been appointed Registrar of
this county without solicitation on my
part, and having accepted the position, /
am determined to be governed solely by
my sense of right and a fair interpreta-
ton of the law. The difficulty that has
arisen relative to the districts in the
county, whether on the old or new basis,
will be settled in time to be announced
in the papers of Saturday. 1t seems to
have obtained under former Registrars
that lists of names were presented and
perhaps irregularly fled, and those pre-
senting them furnished with certificates.
/ expect to discharge my official duty
without favor, according to law Those
who are hostile to me, personally, will
expect nothing of the kind, and my
friends should not expect me to swerye,
even for their accommodation, There
shall DO no impeachment thrown in the
way of registration when application
is made properly.
Respectfully, SAN H. SHOCK,
Registrar Of Shelby county.

The Thunderer's Lecture 10 the

The Prince Of Wales has learnt by q

many privileges, It must suffer not few
privations, and the charm of personal
intimacy is one that must be almost de-
MED 10 the inheritors of crowns The
Prince has had indeed, before him the
pattern of life, not surely devoid of
innocent pleasures, yet so carefully regu.
lated that il was, in the eyes Of all men,
dedicated to domestic purity. The life
of the Prince Consort was marked by
the incest regard to the conditions under
which it was passed Every one will re-
member the rules of social conduct the
Prince prescribed for himself, and how
faithfully they were observed. We do
not doubt that the future years of the
heir apparent will show, by their fidelity
to this example, the influence of the
lesson he has had to learn, and that
