THE COUNTY COTRTS.

The Radicals who, for lack OF any
thing else to complain of in the new
Constitution, are endeavoring to create
opposition to it by reason o. It's restora.
lion Of the County Court system, for
get that each county is at liberty TO
consult its own inclinations as regards
that feature Of the Judicial plan. A
large majority of the counties in the
State prefer the County Court and will
probably find it cheaper and in every
respect more satisfactory than the pres
ent plan Of county government. There
are Others, however, that prefer a dit;
irrent system from that at present in
operation or that contemplated in the
Eighth Article OF the new Constitution.
TO accommodate these, the thirty-fourth
section of that article prescribes that
the Legislature ShdU, upon proper APP
plication, provide a system that shall
conform TO the wishes OF the county or
counties desiring different mode of
county government. Noconiusion will
necessarily result from this, for the new
courts thus created will simply take the
place of the County Court; will have
the same Jurisdiction, and he governed
hy similar rules. The judicial powers
Of the Court may, however, be separate
from its police and fiscal duties, and
these several branches Of authority ad
rnimistered by different sets OF officers.
In this comfy, we nave heard some
Of our LAWYERS express the opinion that
q simple extension Of the jurisdiction of
the present Municipal Court SO as to
embrace the whole county, prescribing
at the same time certain additional
rules, would furnish as good County
Court as we need, in so far as its judicial
duties are concerned. The county
levy might be made 10y the Justices
meeting once year for that purpose;
and The police affairs of the county
might be left to the Justices OF the
Peace in their several precincts.
The Mariiusburg Nes Era thinks
that the people Of Berkeley county
would adopt by from three hundred to
five hundred majority new system OF
County Courts, differing from that pre-
scribed in the new Constitution and
we have no doubt that several other
counties will avail themselves of the
opportunity affored for making the
system, conform TO the wishes Of the
people. O.. na......
At all events, no Roadway against the
new Constitution can be made by the
Radicals IN relation to this subject; for
the most inveterate foe of the County
Court system cannot deny the justice Of
permitting thosst to have it who want it,
and leaving TO the counties that do not
want the County Court full liberty to,
order their affairs as may suit them
best.

GAS stock in Cincinnati is nearly one

GAS stock in Cincinnati is nearly one
hundred per cent above par in its est
mated value, and none for sale at that
price. The gas company in that city
charge s. 81 per thousand feet. ...-
Here is a fact in regard to the gas
business worth noting:
Cincinnati Hospital, for the year
ending March !, 1871, paid the gas
company OF that city $1,000 for "a, con-
sumed. In the following July the
Hospital constructed gas works OF her
own at cos: of $1,000. She has
since then been burning gas Of her
own manufacture. The result is that
by this process she will pay for her gas
works and gas in one year with less
money than the gas alone cost from the
company for the same period! Every
bushel OF coal used is weighed and
every other expense for mater al is
taken carefully into account in making
this estimate Fifty seven cents per
thousand feet is the cost OF the gas TO
the hospital manufacturing it herself
This is with coal at thirteen cents per
bushel OF seventy two pounds.

CONSIDERABLE apprehension is ex-
pressed by the leading English journals
that another Indian rebellion, similar
to the terrible. mutiny Of 1857, is immi'

the general uneasiness among the ma

alarm. The latest Indian correspond,

Juuius assailedthe Marquis of Cranky
in the following words:
1t has lately been a fashion to pay a
compliment to the bravery and geuer-
osity of the commander-in-chief at
the expense of his understanding.
They who love shim least make
no question Of his courage while
his friends dwell chiefly onCthe
facility of his disposition. Admitting
him to be as brave as a total absence
of all feeling and reflection can make
him, let rs see what sort OF merit be

character. If it be generosity to accu-
malate in his own person and family a
number of lucrative employments to
provide at the public expense for every
creature that bears the name of Man
ners; to heap promotions upon hit
favorites and dependents, the present
commander-in.chief is the most gener-
ous man alive. ...... ........ ..

THE people Of Virginia will determine,
AT the election to lie held on the fourth
Thursday in May, whether it will be
lawful or not to collect greater in
terest than six per cent. The provision
in the State Constitution modifying the
old interest law permits the collection
Of any interest named in the bond or
other evidence OF the debt, so that its
annual rate shall not exceed twelve per
cent. The Legislature has passed a
law enabling the people to decide at the
May election whether that provision
shall be retained or explunged.

THE NEGROES WANT MIXED
A SCHOOLS. =


A meeting of black and white Rad
icals was held in Washington City last
Wednesday night for the purpose OF
breaking down all distinctions on &C.
count of race or color i'm the free
schools. 1t was announced that the
negroes indended to press this matter
until their children were admitted to
the same schools with white children
all over the land.
John NJ. Langston said that he felt
it his duty to come to this meeting and
to do everything he could to rid the
country and religion from the odious
distinctions which exist on account OF
race and color without sanction OF law.
In our country negroes are sent to
Congress. are placed in the public
offices, and associate on an equality
with the most distinguished in the land,
and yet by an insensate prejudice their
children are ostracized in the public
schools. He hated all these distinct
organizations, either Of white or black
men, for it is not according TO the
teachings OF Christ, who made no dis
tinction between Jew and Gentle, but
declared the common brotherhood OF
man.
He declared that II President Grant
did not agree to use his influence to
procure school equality for the colored
people he would not

abilities of rebels removed until Sum
ners amendment is passed or when
both shall be passed together.

Mr.. Greeley's Record.

The Newport Erpress, in an able arti-
Gle on Mr.. Greeley's record, says. In
Vol l. page $50 of Mr. -Greeley's ''Ameri-
can Conflict" we find the following lam
guage: s'If the cotton States consider
the value of the Union debatable we
maintain their perfect right to discuss it.
Nay, we hold with Jefferson to the in
alienable right of communities to alter
or abolish forms of government that
have become oppressive or injurious;
and if the cotton States shall decide that
they can do better out of the Union than
in it, we insist on letting them go in
peace The right to secede may be
revolutionary one, but it exists neverthe-
less, and we do not see how one party
has a right to do what another party has
right to prevent. We must ever resist
the right of any State to remain in the
Union, and nullify and defy the laws
thereof to withdraw from the Union is
quite another matter And whenever
considerable section of our Union shall
deliberately resolve to go out, we shall
resist all coerciye measures designed to
keep it in. We hope never to live in a
republic, whereof one section is pinned
TO the residue by bayonets."
The Erpress comments on the above
extract as follows
Mr.. Greeley goes on further to say
that while he thus upholds the practical
liberty, if not the abstract right, OF
secession, it must be done only after
time for ample reflection, the subject
fully canvassed and a popular vote
taken; and then amajority having voted
to decide, those who rushed upon car
mage to defy and defeat the act would
place themselves clearly in the wrong.
The above extract is inserted in the
book mentioned from an editorial in the
Tribune, in the latterpart OF 1860, when,
a. every one knows, the slave States
were one by one adopting ordinances of
secession. However the import OF this
language may be explained away by the
friends of Mr.. Greeley, it can't but re-
main that in the light of subsequent his
tory he entertained most gorgeous
error. The idea running through it is
that the Federal Government had no
GlVUL I'D cOeTCc any ScCJlOu VI INC SOul
try that had deliberately resolved to
secede and set up government of its
own. If any principle was fully con-
frmed by the subduing or the rebellion,
1t was the very opposite of this. The
Southerners themselves-the more intel
ligcnt of them-admitted this at the
close of the war. Though their ultimate
purpose was to save the principle of
slavery, they thought they could not do
it without setting up new government
In any similar emergency in the future
like that which happened in 1861, we
can readily see how much out of place
would be such language as the above.
There would be no hating or hesitation
on the part of the government if the his
tory of the past was to be any guide.
Its duty would clearly be to put down
all attempts at secession by force OF
arms, and that to admit the right would
be destruction Of the government.

Late Dairy Markets.
CHEESE

CHEESE.
The market at Utica, on Monday, was
firm and prices advanced small frac-
ton over the previous week. The high
est figure reached was Is cents for one
lot only, but 144a was common figure,
one or two lots sold at IA cents and
several at 14i and 149c.
At Little Falls on Monday the offer
ings of farm diaries amounted to 1000
boxes, 800 boxes of which were sold at
prices ranging from 8@14 cents. The
ruling price was about 1880. There
were about 5000 boxes of factory offer
ed, sales of $500 boxes were made.
Sales fuctuated somewhat and were
made at 49,, IA, Al, 14s, 145c and
some holders asked Is cents. The ruling
prices however were 135 and IA cents.
The qualities of all grades of cheese
showed an improvement.
At Fort Plain on Monday there were
thirty-five factories represented offering
5000 boxes which were all sold az prices
from 14@14ac, nearly all at the latter
figure, this price being generally salts
factory. The quality of cheese is rap
idly improving as the grass begins to
make itself manifest.
The Boston cheese market is without
material change. The supply is moder-
ate and sales of choice new factory con-
tinue to be made at 10 and IA cents.
Skinned is rather quiet at from 5 a SC
as to quality.
There has been a good export demand
from New York the past week and the
stock is pretty well sold up. Old cheese
is quite scarce with small sales at Is and
II cents, but there is not enough to give
a quotation.
The receipts at New York, for the
week ending Saturday last, were %, sos
boxes. and the exports were %, 1922 boxes
The highest quotations for cheese was
13a cents. For the corresponding week
last year, the receipts were %, $50 boxes
and exports were 20,472 boxes, and the
highest quotation for cheese was Is
cents. The following table shows the
receipts and exports to date, as compared
with last year:
