ECLIPSE OF THE Sun IN DECEMBER,
1870. Astronomers in all parts of the
world are now busy in making their
preparations for observing the eclipse of
the sun in December 21-22, 1870. AL
though it will net be visible in the Unit.
ed States, it has been suggested that
some of the American observers of the
last eclipse be sent abroad for the pur-
pose of taking part in The observations
OF the one in question, and Congress has
already appropriated $4,000 to the
Coast Survey for the purpose. Great
praise was awarded by foreign physicists
to the American astronomers for the ex-
cellence of their work, and especially
for the remarkable Photographic pictures
that were taken, and at SO many points;
and it is urged that these same gentle
men, or selection from them, would
be admirably fitted for renewed inves-
tigation Of the kind, since their exper-
ienee of the first phenomenon would en-
able them to utilize their time to better
advantage during the second. Accord
lug 20 recent writer this eclipse will
begin in the North Atlantic Ocean the
line of central and total eclipse, moving
in south-easterly direction, crosses Port
ugal little to the south Of Lisbon pass
ing over part of Spain and the Medit-
erranean Sea, it enters Africa near Oran,
and soon afterward attains its extreme
southern limit ; the shadow of the moon
now moving in north .easterly direction,
leaves Africa, and, crossing the island of
Sicily, the south of Turkey, the Black
Sea, and the Sea of Azof, disappears
the penumbra of the moon, decreasing
rapidly, leaves the earth with the set
ting sun in Arabia. The sun will be

united states senator.

The Writ County Democrat has the
following in relation to the election of
an United States Senator:
Among the many whose names have
been mentioned in connection with this
important position, is Okey johnson,
Esq, of Wood county, and we are firmly
convinced that his election would meet
with the hearty approval of the Demo
Gratis of Writ and Of the whole district.
If there is man who deserves the con-
fidence, the esteem. and the favors Of the
partv, that man is Mr.. johnson. From
the first organization Of the Democratic
and Conservative party. in this State,
he has always been found at his post,
ready and willing to labor for the sue
cess OF our principles. During the last
campaign he worked constantly and eff
fectively, and this Senatorial District
gave him a larger majority than was
given any other Senator in the State.
lie entered the canvass with Radical
majority of over seven hundred, two
wears ago, to overcome, and came off
victorious, with majority Of between
six and seven hundred This shows
his popularity in this section of the
State. As to his ability to fill the posi-
ton spoken OF, no one can doubt this.
Ifelected we are confident that the in
terests Of the State would be cared for
in a manner which would be approved
of by the people, and we know that in
him our principles would have an able
defender in the halls or our National
| CONGRESS"

A Slight Contrast.

The recent contested election case in
this county has called to mind some
circumstances which transpired a few
years ago, when the Republican party
had majority in the Board of Super
visors. The township election held on
oath Of May 1866 was the first that
took place after the passage of the reg
istration act, and, at the same election,
the ratification or rejection Of the con
stitutional amendment was voted upon
by such persons as Governor FOREMAN
and his registrars permitted.
Upon examination Of the poll books
ofTriadelphia township and comparing
the names of those recorded as having
voted, with the names upon the list
made bv the registrar, il was found
that eleven men had been permitted to
vote whose names were not upon the
register. OF these eleven, however,
the names of seven were found upon
the register, but improperly spelled by
the registrar and all were, except regis
tration alone, legally qualified voters in
that township. The Board consisted OF
four Democrats and six Republicans,
and, after revolving the matter for sew
eral weeks and holding two or three ad-
journed meetings to deliberate upon
the subject, they rejected the ~hole rote
cast in Triadelphia township; the town
ship officers Of the year before held
over during another year, and the re,
ported majority in Ohio county for re-
lection of the constitutional amend
ment was sixty or seventy less than 1T
should have been.
Now look at the contrast. In 1870
the Board Of Supervisors consisted Of
eight Democrats and two Republicans.
A contest is made between the candi-
dates for one OF the most important
Offices in the county. Irregularities and
violations OF law are discovered in three
OF the townships Of the county, the re-
lection of the whole vote ofwhich would
give the Office to the Democratic con-
testant. But it appearing that a ma
jority of the voters of the county
favored the election Of the Republican
candidate, the Board of Supervisors
unanimously resolved to award him a
certificate of election.
Had the case been reversed, had q
Democratic contestant appeared before
a Republican board under similar cir,
eumstances, it is not difficult to say
what the result would have been.

No Name.

It is common thing nowadays to hear
persons complain about their physical diSa-
bilities which bring so much discomfort to
both mind and body, that they find no graf
ification in anything around them. One
has no satisfying rest at night; another Is
always pevish and respondent; still another
takes no delight in society; and others again
find no compensating in labor, exercise, or
even life. No name is given in pathology
for their ailments, nevertheless, the causes
are always present. They simply lack vital
power, and Prof Baker says that "the best
for this class Is MISHLER'S HERB
BITTERS," which he has used for several
years, and with uniform success" rs 1t tones
the Stomach and Liver-the seat of the COM
plaint-and reconstructs the shattered con-
stitution. This vitalizing tonic speedily re-
moves the cause of languor and discomfort;
imparts calm force to the nervous system;
rouses the dormant organs OF the body; and
blesses the sufferer with perfect and lasting
health.

He traced the increase from $3.50 IN
1890 to the eliminating in 1854, when
AL 1873 alien passengers arrived, giving
his views of the cause Of the unpreced-
denied increase and its decline to 81 600
in 1862 and 1868, and its recovery to
395, 2S7 in 1870. He gave the classifi-
cations by sex, occupation and age; CIV
ing the per centage Of each, especially
noting the number and percentage OF
able-bodied males.
Mr.. Young then discussed the value to
the country of immigrants. He slightly
differed from DR.. Engle, who athrms
the value of an immigrant is the
amount of his cost till the age of fl.
teen is attained Mr.. Young contended
that the law of supply and demand
prevails in this case, and that the value
of an immigrant is what his services
are worth in the place where he locates.
He averaged the value Of alien passen'
gers at eight hundred dollars each,
thus giving, as the aggregate value OF
the immigration for the last half CEN
turv. about six billions OF dollars
