TRUTH, EVIDENCE, TESTIMONY.

Irah, like justice is not created by human agency
1T IS the subject OF discovery and reyeation to the
human understanding. Truth is discovered by two
methods viz: first by rational deductions from kaoon
facts and secondly, by experience. The results of
these two methods, constitute evidence. The revela
ton OF truth thus discovered, is testimony
Any proposition, the truth of which is sustained
by evidence resulting from rational deductions from
known facts, is entitled to the credence of mankind
unless the deductions shown to be erroneous by
evidence of superior character When to this sort
Of eotece is added the concurrent testimony of large

John McGilvery, of Cedar Township.
Monroe County, called at our Office
on Monday morning and showed US q
fragment of iron scale which had just
been extracted from the ball Of his
right eye by DR.. Cornell of Knox
vile. The iron was thrown into Mr..
Ms eye from the cylinder Of thresh-
ing machine which he was feeding,
some five weeks ago. He suffered
agonizing torments, and applied in
vain to his physician for aid. Last
week he was recommended to DIR.
Cornell, by a friend, and came up
here, with the above successful result.
He speaks In high praise OF the Dr's
skill in performing the operation. The
iron had penetrated the eye, and
turned down. 1t IL believed the sight
will be entirely restored.

for ourselves about the old Pella Ga

as composition in the Office from the

Der Of that publication titus refers to
Mr.. Donnel's History Of this County:
We regret to- be obliged to defer the
publication Of the conclusion Of Mr..
William Nj. Donnel's valuable history, ,
1.-THE Pioneers OF Marion County" to
the next volume. None except those
who have engaged in similar work can
form any idea Of the amount OF labor
and patience, as well as money, neces-
sarily expended in the fulfillment OF
such task as that which Mr.. DonDel
has nearly completed in the happiest
manner. Scores Of letters must be
written, hundreds Of questions asked,
dust and cobwebs invaded to reach
musty newspapers, documents and let
tiers, and thousand unexpected OBJ
stacles overcome, in order to secure
the information sometimes contained
in single page. Mr.. Donnels sketch
es are conceded by old settlers to be
exceedingly correct, and entirely un-
furnished by political or personal PREF
udices, too often the bane Of local his
tory. The strongest evidence Of the
high estimate In which Mr.. DonnePs
work ia held in his own county, where
the best judges Of its value necessarily
chiefly reside, is that its republication
Is demanded, in book form, in which
it will appear in few months. For
our own part, we think We do no one
any injustice In saying that ""I'he Pr

fortunate in their historian than thoses
