BoREs IN PRINTING OFFICE.-The Val
lejo Independent discourses on this
subject with some signs of irritation. 1t
says:
We suppose it is necessary for every
editor to be troubled with gentlemen of
leisure, who makes use of tleir sane
tums as reading rooms, pull AMI haul
their papers around the tables, rattle
them un Ter their noses, talk when they
are busy, and are always glad to be com
pany and entertain visitors who cal in.
This class of people are bores of the first
water. They cannot take hint an
nothing short of rudeness will dislodge
them. 1t is terrible on an editor to have
one of these familiar spirits around when
he Is very busy and compelled to work.
An editors sanctum is about the only
place IN which people feel perfectly free
to make themselves at home and help
themselves to anything they take fancy
to. In other Offices men feel some deli
cacy in interfering with what they find
therein, They do not like to disturb
the occupant when busy, but it is not SO
in an editors Office. His papers are
handled and pulled around with perfect
freedom, and unless he can write his
leaders and entertain visitors at the same
time, he has no business in newspaper
office. People do not think how they
trespass upon an EDITORS time aud
patience by these Interruptions. He has
certain amount of work which must be
done every day within certain hours, and
if he cannot do it at the proper time, it
is an inconvenience to ali hands includ-
ing the foreman and compositors. 1t
often happens that the thoughtless class
alluded to are very free to criticiss any
imperfections in the paper, when they
are directly responsible for them.

HE TURNING OF THE NAUvoo TEMPLE.
The Peoria (Ill.) Transcript gives the
following interesting scrap OF history:
Among the events of the famous Nor
mon war in Illinois was the burning of
the Nauvoo temple. The structure was
burned in the night time, and so success
full was the party engaged in its firing,
that probably he has never been suspect
ed. The recent death of the incendiary,
however, has removed the necessity of
further secrecy, and day or to ago we
were put in possession of his name and
the facts connected with the burning of
the temple, by the only living person
cognizant of them. The temple was
fired by Joseph b. Agnew, who recently
died in Appanoose township, Hancock
county, in this State, at the age of some
90 years. 1t was always supposed that
the party who burned the building had
entered through the basement, but the
facts are that Mr.. Agnew surreptitiously
obtained key to one of the doors of the
temple some time before the act. No
one was engaged with him, and only
four knew he was the party. Three of
these are now dead. Agnew prepared
his fire-balls and other combustibles at
his residence. Placing them in his sad
dle-bags, be rode on horseback to Nau.
VOC, and in the night entered the temple
with his key, passed up to the cupola,
arranged his materials and fired them,
and then quietly escaped by the way he
had entered.

Yestesday, says the Sacramento Union
of the 9th, Susan B. Anthony and bevy
of the strong-minded sylphs like herself,
walked up to the polls at Rochester, n.
Y, and deposited their votes like any
other person of masculine attributes.
The fact is an important one, because by
1t female suffrage is admitted in the En-
pire State to a certain extent. 1t is not
universal, but if Susan b. Anthony or any
other of her immediate followers is tn
titled to vote, the 609, 900 females in New
York of the age of p years and upwards
have like rights that should berecogniz4d.
1t may be said that these female suf-
fragists have only succeeded in getting
Illegal votes into the ballot-box by in
spectors of election not understanding
their duty, and not because they had a
right to vote; and this is, perhaps, a
proper statement of the case.

SPECEAL NOTICES.
SEASONABLE SUGGESTION

The heavy mists. and cold night deWs which
characterize the present season arc very trying
to delicate organizations, and in low-lying and
swampy Localities they produce an enormous
crop of intermittent fevers of various types and
degrees of intensity. At this very time there
are probably half million of people in the
United States suffering from periodical feyers by
miasmatic fogs and exhslations. What makes
the prevalence Of this evil more deplorable it
might in all cases be easily prevented. Malaria
and damp produce little or no effect upon the
system pre-fortifed by course of Hostetter' S
Stomach Bittcrs. Every fall and spring hun
dreds Of letters are received from persons re-
siding in fever and ague districts, who state that
while their neighbors are Incapactated for labor
by that debilitating disease, they have been hap.
PLY exempted from attack by the regular use of
the great vegetable antidote to miasma. AS q
chlologopic orspechc for intermittent and remit
tent fevers the Bitters may be justly accounted
infallible. They eradicate the complaints in
their most obstinate forms; but the wiser course
is to forestall attack by taking the preparation
as a preventive. The amount OF productive Ia
Dor withdrawn from active service during sew
eral months in the year by malarious maladies
is immense, and the pecuniary losses to individ-
uals families and the nation frem this cause is
incalculable Bear in mind that by toning and
regulating the system with Hostetter's Bitters
before the calamity comes, it may always be es-
capped and let it also be remembered that indi-
gestion, general debility, bliousness, constipa,
ton, nervous complaints, and indeed almost all
disturbances and arrangements Of the physical

sasRehSrt Of the Secretary OF. War.
e. NV York, oy. S.-The annual report Of
the Secretary, Of War commences by compll-
mentipg Congress tot such completeness of last
year legislation, that little room is left for leg
islative recommendation. The Secretary re-
.oemmends the establishment of military pris
ons in, place Of the present system of sending
army eenyicE to State penitentiares. Deser-
tiiopS 10! the army have fallen off greatly the
past year. He: reviews the recommendation
that the extra lieutenant to each regiment be
dispensed with as vacancies occur, and thus
save 100000 per annu,n.g He recommends
raising the Intellectual standard Of admission to
West Point also the sale Of several arsenals at
the South and elsewhere, and urges the estab-
lishment of general arsenals on the Atlantic
and Pacific. slopes The progress in expert
4mepfs with improved heavy ordnance and with
sttfsscf- loading small arms is slow! . He con-.
siders channel Instructions and torpedoes, pro-
tected by. heavy batteries, as valuable tor har-
Dor defences, and experiments with torpedoes
have been successful in determining the
kind to be used, and the Secretary recon
mends the storage of torpedoes for the de-
fence. of New York and other harbors
The new system Of inspecting disburslng
officer accounts is in full operation. He
concludes by regretting that one sixth
of the army,is still detained in Southern States,
east of the Mississippi river; hopes the improv,
ing social condition will soon relieve that force
for frontier service, and says military expendl-
lures are on descending scale.

He was surprised at the alright received by

and he was thereafter urged by political giants
to make various changes in his Cabinet. Many
&of his friends had wondered at his inditfer
sence. but one helping cause Of that inditter-
;ence, which was known to but few, was his
knowledge of the fact that during the cam;
paign the Republican NATIONAL Committee had
