The proceedings in the Spanish Cortes Friday were
highly important. Almost the entire session devoted
the consideration OF the question of the future ruler
of the country At length proposition was made by
one OF the members that candidate for King should
be considered fairly elected unless he received majority
equal the full number OF Deputies in tho
Cortes Amid the most enthusiastic applause it
solved to take this proposition into consideration by
vote of 100 to 49, and the Cortes then adjourned This
vote is very significant. 1t is regarded equivalent
the defeat of the Duke of Monpenser who has only
votes in the Cores and who, if this amendment is adopt
ed, will require l7e in order to be elected.
Espartero has written letter. stating that he will
fuse the Crown even II the Cortes decree it to him.

dozen indictments against him for assault

fined heavily, and was standing in a med,

no cause of oflense. Without a word Page

large building, and 1Hl it with ,ne most
approved machinery. At CarrOilon, Mis-

which, in n short time, will employ one
hundred and eighty spindles. In NIarengo

rangements to manufacture on n large
scale At Cuba Station, Sumter county, Il
factory is also shortly to be in operation.
These are a few of the indications that the

Mr.. EwING-Dear Sir Allow me,
through your paper, to correct an error
which the editor of The Democrat and the
Bayard school clique has fallen into in re-
gard to the appointment of assistant teach
ers. They seem to think that letter pub
lished in last weeks Democrat above the
signature of Isaac D. Jones settles that
question. want them to know that l
will never give up the right to appoint as
sistants until the question is settled by the
State School Board If that Board decides
the question adverse to me, then they may
crow. If my opponents will turn to chap
ter 3 section of the School law, they will
see who the law says has right to settle
this question. The idea Of people thinking
that will give up rights that the law
clearly gives me, simply because Isaac d.
Jones thinks that certain sectionsmeans GER
tain things, is ridiculous. Do they suppose
| cannot read for myself? The very fact
of l. d. Jones saying he thinks, shows
that he is not certain himself. Thinking,
and not knowing what the law means, is
the cause of all this trouble. never went
into this thing expecting to gain laurals;
was forced into it by the Trustees of the
Bayard school; and l want them to know
that l will not give it up until it is settled by
the State School Board, and shall stand by
the assistants that appoint when. payday
comes. because / now believe, and have
from the first time read the law, that l
had the right to make the appointments.

IAierishness.-There is a great deal of
felonous stealing going on in this neigh

confine their operations to any one article,
but meanly pilfer anything on which they
can lay their guilty hands. There seems,
however, to be a preference for poultry by
these night providers. Some of our citizens
are now prepared to give these lazy scamps
warm reception. So that if you should
hear of some of them being found dead

it happened, without an inquest.
