As to Mr.. Hayne, it is but just
that I should say that all the ex-

I have nothing to say except this,
that under their administration the

if there is any one Of them who has
not participated in them, or profit

say so, and let him show to the

parties are. It is fair, to presume
that the majority OF the Board con-

quently, some one or more of the
Advisory Board may be entirely

How A Paper is Made.

"Pray, how is newspaper made"
The question is easy to ask,
But to answer it fully, my dear.
Were rather difficult task;
And yet in a bantering way,
As the whippowill sings in the glade
I'll venture bit OF lay,
To tell how paper is made.
An editor sits at his desk
And ponders the things that appear
To be claiming the thoughts OF the
world
Things solemn, and comic and queer
And when he hits ma theme
He Judges it well to parade,
He writes, and he writes, and he writes
And that's how paper is made.
An Editor sits at his desk,
Aud puzzles his brain to make out
photographic" SO squabbled and mixed
It is hard to tell what it's about.
Exchanges are lying around
While waiting dispatches delayed,
He clips, and he clips, and he clips,
And that's how paper is made.
And editor out In the town,
In search of the things that are new
The things that the people have done,
The things they're intending to do
Goes peering and prying about,
For items of many grade:
He tramps, and he tramps, and he
tramps,
And that's how paper is made.
And all that these workers prepare,
Of every conceivable stripe,
Is sent to the printer and he
Proceedeth to stick it in type,
His lines all respecting his will,
In slow-moving columns parade
He sticks, and he sticks, and he sticks,
And that's how paper is made.
In short when the type is all set,
And errors cleared up, more or less,
IT'S locked in o FORM" as we say.
And hurried away to the press.
The pressman arranges his sheet,
His ink gives the requisite shade,
Then he prints, and he prints, and he
prints, .
And that's how paper is made.

At the recent term Of the Court OF
General Sessions for Pickens County,
Judge Orr gavsthe following decision
ON the jurisdiction Of the court in
cases Of bastardy:; .,
In the case of bastardy, after true
bill has been rendered, the Judge
granted an order discharging the pris-
oner, on the ground that the Court OF
Sessions, if having any jurisdiction,
had only jurisdiction on appeal, and
in the course of his remarks intimated
that, as a convictioniin the Court OF
Trial Justice would impose penalty
exceeding the jurisdiction of that
court, it could not try the case. The
Constitution gives TO Justices OF the
Peace, individually or Jointly, as the
Legislature may provide, original ju.
risdiction. in all cases of bastardy
AS yet no provision has been made, to
carry this into effect, the jurisdiction
of Trial Justices being limited to sl00
as to actions on contract or tort, and
also, to penal offences punishable BY
fine only. Bastardy still continues 9
statutory offence, though at presend,
no court has cognizance of tho OF

BLAINE IN MA1NE.-Mr. Blaine. of
Maine, has been q good deal laughed
at for what has been supposed to
be the self.sufHcient bumptiousness Of
his letter in reply to Mr.. Sumner, Mr.
Sumner not having particularly ad-
dressed himself to Mr.. Blaine. But
this Is unjust 70 Mr. BIaIhe, Of matno.
He had an object in his replys and an
object of price to himself. Our
friends, who have begun in earnest
the campaign in Maine, send us word
that Mr.. Blaine is fighting for his
political life, The Liberal Repubf.
can revolution in his district is SO
serious that it threatens to throw
him out Of public life entirely; and
his apparently unprovoked war-dance
in front of Mr.. Sumner was really
intended to stir up, if possible, all the
dying cmbers of passion among his
own constituents. The loss of Blaine
will be a serious one to the Grantitos,
The loss of Maine will be a more seri7
GUS one to them still. But after North
Carolina we suspect they may as well
make up their minds to bear both
these losses. After that they will
find it easier to endure the general
amputation and dissection reserved
for. them in November.-Nep York

by said corporation prior to seces-
sion should be. funded by the issue
of bonds on the part of the State.
This Act provided no limit, except
the amount of the bills of the bank
then outstanding issued prior to the
war. I have learned from the
Treasurer's statement for October
81, 1871, that the issue of bonds
under this Act amounted to 81, 1885,
400. This amount I therefore as
sumo was the amount authorized
by the Act. On the 18th day of
February, 1869, the Legislature
passed an Act to authorize a loan
for the relief of the Treasury. This
Act provided for a loan, upon cou-
pom bonds, Of a sum not exceeding
one million dollars, Isl, ,00Q,O0O,) or
as much of that sum as might be
necessary for the relief of the Treas
ury of the State. This Act pro-
vided, further, that these bonds
might be used as collateral security
for loans by the Financial agent OF
the State in the city Of New York,
under the direction of the Gov
ernor, Attorney General, Comp
troller General and Treasurer of
tho State; who might also author
ize the Financial Agent to sell these
bonds at the highest market price,
but for sum not less than should
be fixed by them. AS to the pro
priety of this Act, [ was never fully.
satisfied, but my recollection is that
I voted for it upon the assurance of
the Governor and Financial Agent
that it was absolutely necessary.
It authorized, in my Judgment, a
bonded debt, not exceeding one
million dollars. On the 9th OF
March, 1869, the Legislature passed
an Act to provide for the appoint,
ment of Land Commissioner and
to define his powers and duties.

a. 4 NOVEL IDEA OF THE. sun.

The astronomers Of these latter
days talk about planetary distances
and spaces with ais much confidence
as a surveyor gives the dimensions
Iof a city lot, or The metes and
boundaries Of a farm. In our
school-boy days the astronomers
said the sun was about 95, ,Q00,000
miles from the earth, but now the
exact distance is laid down at 91,-
100000 miles. This cuts off a trife
Of 3,5OO,OOO' miles; still the dis
tance, even as the astronomers now
foot it up, would be q long way to
travel. If our Puritan fathers had
set out from the sun, instead Of
from England, on that evenHhl day
which witnessed their embarkation,
and had travelled by an airline
continuously at the rate of forty
miles an hour, which is a good deal
faster than Dexter can go, they
would not be due at} Plymouth
Rock till late in. the year 1883,
which would be- seven years too
late for them to take part in our
grand centennial celebration on the
4th Of July, 1876. |
The astronomers tell us the grav-
.ity is SO increased at the sun that
bodies would weigh twenty-eight
times as much there as here. What
singular results that might occasion
were the sun inhabitable! For
example, a sylph-like belle, weigh
ing say one hundred and ten pounds
on earth, would weigh over three
thousand pounds at the sun. What
a lift she would be for a lover seek
ing to rescue her from her papa's
burning dwelling! Then just con-
slider the avoirdupois Of a man
heavy on earth-say a three hun
dred pounder-at the sun. There
me would weigh eight thousand
four hundred pounds. Imagine
such a man falling from the fifty
story window upon the head Of an
unsuspecting passer-by! The com
ing down of d thousand of brick
on earth would be nothing to the
impact of such a creature on the
sidewalk in front of his sunny

DeIicate Creatures.

This is the phrase applied by His
Blackness, the Moor of Venice, to the
fair ladies of Italy. 1t was the lovely
complexion of Desdemona, such radi-
ant contrast to his own, that won his
heart; and sooth to say, every man Of
discernment considers fair skin, like a
sweet voice, an excellent thing in
woman" Now this is charm which
can be acquired. There is healthful
and odoriferous toilet article, known
everywhere as HAGAE's MAGNOLIA BALM,
which literally transfgures a cloudy or
sallow skin, sufusing the discolored
face, neck, arms and bosom with soft,
pearly tinge, and imparting to the sur
face a smoothness and gloss like that of
polished marble. Instead Of clogging
the pores, like the, sticky enamels, or
contracting them, and thus obstructing
perspiration, like the astringent cos
metics, it cleanses the skin from all i'm
purisies and wonderfully improves its
texture. This popularity is particularly
appreciated by our rural bellies, who find
that the coarseness and roughness, which
country air is apt to engender, are
speedily removed from their faces, hands
and arms, by this delightful preparation.

sAtthe close of to-day's debate in the

Of a Republican form Of government, or

which Mr.. Schurz briefly but indignant
" replied that he came here like others
to secure the benefit of our republican

this connection, it should be known that
the feeling in administration circles, and
especially among Grant senators to-
wards the German element, is growing
intensely bitter, on account OF Schurz
course.

NEBRASKA.

A Western paper says the disorgan-
lied and almost anarchical condition
into which the government of Nebraska
has been reduced by the corruptions of
the Radical party is causing the people
to discuss eagerly the question of relief.
It might beiimagined thatthe Democrats
would endeavor to turn the breakdown
of their opponents to party account, by
appealing to the people to seek for relief
in Democratic government; but we are
glad to note that their patriotism rises
to higher view, and fairer treatment
of the matter than this. They refuse to
make a party question of their troubles,
even Though these troubles are the work
of their opponents; they submit the dill
6culty to the people, and rely upon them
for non-party movement to bring the
needed remedy.

AFTER CLAYTON.

Late intelligence from Washington
states that the congressional committee
have agreed to report unanimously in
favor of Bowles in the third Arkansas
district. The certificate given Edwards
was upon the ground of violence alleged
to have been proven before the legisla-
tive investigating committee, and be-
cause Of the decision Of the State su-
preme court that Edwards received a
majority of the votes received at the
legal polls. The testimony taken in the
contest disproyes the violence, and shows
that the legislative report was cooked
up affair, whilst the examination of the
tabular vote recited by the supreme
court gives Bowles majority of eight
votes
