4 County Fair.

We hear a good many inquiries among
our citizens concerning the prospects Of a
county fair. Apparently, almost every one
would like to have fair, and thinks that il
would be good thing. It unquestionably
would be good thing, financially, and
every other way, to oil classes, Merchants,
Mechanics, Hotel keepers, Farmers and
Professional men. Talk is cheap and il
don't seem to get beyond that. The profits
on talk are also very cheap and few well
directed efforts added would increase the
returns amazingly. We are reminded of a
story in the budget Of our friend DR.. Hitch
cock. A man, in Pennsylvania, was SO un-
fortunate, Is to have his horse fall over
the bank into the canal and drown.
The neighbors and passers by were very
sympathetic and remarked feelingly,
"what pity" ''Its serious loss" Its
too bad" &C., &c. till one remarked, 81
sympathize to the amount of just $1,000,
how much "fellow felling'' have the rest Of
you 7" and it was but few minutes till the
man had enough to buy new horse.
1t may require An interest in : county
fair on the part Of few people, that will
prompt an advance Of el0'c1 80, but it will
only be an advance. Audit will not cost
anybody single cent more than they may
spend on the day Of the fair for entrance
fee and the like, which will not exceed in
amount what they would spend on any
holiday. 1t will be At a time too when
every body will want holiday and can
afford to take one.
The matter can be set on foot in less time
than It takes to write this article, by eight
or ten men, if that many in the community
feel inclined.
The Merchants and Hotel keepers would
he especially benefited.
Since writing the above We have been
requested tn call rnhlie ra.etisS,- ~ cum

will be full attendance.

GEOGRAPHY AND ARITHMETIC,

EDITOR GoLD HILL NEWS: Being
present at the examination held by
the County Superintendent on Satur-
day evening at the County Clerks Of
flee. l consider a little criticism on the
proceedings will not be Inappropriate.
1t Is certainly highly important that
the youth Of the county should not be
taught incorrectly. The following
question was asked by the Supcrln-
tendent: What Is the Equator? The
answer given was-the Equator Is an
imaginary line passing around the
earth. from East to West, midway be-
tween the poles. This answer was de-
clared wrong by the Superintendent
this decision being sustained BY the
County Surveyor who answered 1t
substantially as follows: the Equator
is a plane passing through the earth
dividing it into two hemispheres.
Now. the highest authority In geog-
raphy in the United States, Professor
Guyot. In his late work on Physical
Geography, page 6, uses this language:
1.-The term circle in geographical
science IL used In a special sense. The
geographical circles are not planes cut
ting the terrestrial globe, but simply
lines encircling 1t. Those which oisect
the surface Of the sphere are called
great circles; the Equator Is a great
circle encompassIng the globe from east
to west midway between the poles"
To the question. how Is latitude meas
ured ? the following answer was given,
which the County Superintendent de
cided as correct: Latitude Is measured
ON the parallels. Prof. Guyot. same
book. same page, defines latitude to
be distance OF a place from the equa-
tor measured upon the merldlans, mot
parallelsl. 1t will thus be seen thai
our Superintendent and Prot. Guyot,
are not In agreement OH these import
ant questions In geography. Which
shall we believe? When doctors disa-
gree who shall decide? Last, but By
no means least. our worthy Superin-
tendcnt ruled that 1000. 900, by the
French notation, Is ten hundred thou
sand by the English. Prof. Eaton,
author OF several valuable works ;
also Prof. Ray. state that the first six
places constitute units periods; the
second. millions periods. The ques-
ton now arises. to which period does
the one belong? II 1t belongs TO the
first period. then we have a period OF
seven places; ii to the second, then 1t
Il one million, the same as IN the
French. In this distressing conflict OF
opinion OF learned Professors. what Is
the humble pedagogue to do? In this
unfortunate discrepancy Of views, the
undersigned would respectfully suS,
gest that no hapless urchin be logged
hereafter for answering incorrectly.
OBSERVER.
The writer Of the above evidently
confoundS the term circle with circum.
ference. He Is correct in what he
states in regard to latitude. In saying
that n million vas ter hundred thou
sand, We accepted Webster as author
ity.

DIPPING 1BE HAND INTO Molten IRON
The thug has been done over and ovel

held his hand in such stream of molten
iron. and has done it without the least
injury; all that is required is to have the
hand moist. and if his hand is dry, he
has merely to dip it in water. and he
may hold his hand for Il certain time in
that stream of molten iron without re-
ceiviny any injury Whatever. This was
exhibited publicly at a meeting Of the
British Association at Ipswich many
years ago. 1t is one Of the miracles of
science, so to speak. They are perfectly
credible to scientific men, because they
know the principle upon which it hap
pens. aud that principle is familiar to
you all, that if yon throw n drop of wa
ter upon hot iron. the water retains its
spherical form and does not spread upon
it and wet it. Vapor is brought to that
condition by intense heat, that it forms
. sort of film, or atmosphere, between the
hand and the hot iron. aud for time
the atmosphere il not too hot to be per-
fectly bearable. There are number Of
these miracles of science which we be-
lieve, however incredible at first sight
they may appear. because they can be
brought to the test Of experience and
can at any time be reproduced under the
