The DISTRICT SYsTEMFoR COUNTY Courts.
Il have seen Il letter from MIR. +. Hne, Of
Fairfax county, who was u member OF the Con
stitulionaI CuuveGtion. Mr. ii disputes the
claim of Mr. c. Y. Thomas to the authorship
Of the County Court feature OF the Constitu-
tun and also takes ISSUE rs to the right OF the
Legislature To group the counties into districts
with one Judge. under the provisions of that
Article as it Sauds in the Constitution. lie
says tha, he drafted the article is member Of
the Committee on County Courts aud County
Organization and refers to the report as origin
ally made which provided that In each county
of the State there shall be elected or appointed
one County Judge, one Sheriff, &c. &c Mr.
H. says, acting upon the suggestion that If the
Judge should be elected by the Legislature ii
could not be done in each county, upon his mo-
tion the word for was substituted, Mr. h. says
that the Committee on Adjustment lin the
Convention In the arrangement OF the Arti-
clcs for tina! engroSsment transferred that por-
tiou of his report to the Article upon the Ju-
dietary, using the phraseology Of the Judiciary
Committee, but their duty was simply to ar
range and not change, aud that they must
have considered their language as synonymous
with that reported from the Committee Oh
County Organization. -&.
The House Committee on Courts have rc-
ported as their opinion that the Legislature is
not invested with power to form county coult
districts with counties other than those con
tanning less than 5000 Inhabitants. If this
report prevails there is very little doubt bu;
that the present jurisdiction Of County Judsc>
will be restricted and the County Court S-stc
be materially changed. -Rich,noaa Corrspon.

color and infinite expanse that the pur-
pie heather below and the cool, haZy SKY
above present to him. A lichen-coV-
cred boulder by the roadside furnishes TO
him both a resting place and picture
while the delicate ferns spreading IN lts
shadow are but added objects OF beauty
and pleasure.
Others value a gem for the amount OF
money it represents, he for its intrinsic
beauty; for the clear translucency OF the
diamond, the flawless, pure opacity or
the pearl, the lovely color of the emerald,
the ruby, the amethyst. 1t is worth while
to be beautiful woman when { man OF
educated eyes is near-to be magnlh-
cent man when a woman's educated eyes
observe-they can only see and apprecl-
ate true beauty; they only are not de-
ceived by the superficial and false.
And it is not merely objective beauty
that makes and impression upon these
gifted ones, these observers; hours OF re-
Election come when beautiful things once
seen must be recalled by memory. Then
the mind forms picture and dwells upon
it till train of thought is aroused; the
relations Of attractiveness to life, to hap,
piness, to progress, are carefully reasoned
out and true ideal or subjective beauty is
perceived.
He who educates his eyes elevates him
self constantly; he adds world upon world
to that sphere in which he was originally
born. He sees and knows the life of ev-
cry created thing. The ANIMALS, to him,
are not mere brute beasts, but q strange
and wonderful race of creatures which,
indeed, cannot speak like man, but who
possess domestic and social affections,
and are capable of emotions of education
and progression.
And for him the flowers bloom, the
lovely flowers with their often exquisite
aroma, their grace and fragility. OF
what use, indeed, are these beautiful BIOS
SONS but to arouse pleasureable and there
fore elevating sentiments in the mind Of
an observer? So to him the vegetable
world is closely connected with the
human; almost he can believe when
examining the life of certain trees and
plants that they also are sentient, they
also have some consciousness of exist
ence. He who has wondered over the
sensitive plant, shrinking even before it
is touched, can comprehend the myth of
the mandrake that shrieks aloud, "Die!
die" when it is torn from its mother
earth. That which to others is but an
absurd fable, to him is the key which I'M
locks the archives of an unknown world
and permits his all-observing eyes and
questioning, penetrating mind to study
the hidden lore of nature.
Not only do men and women of edu-
Gated eyes add world upon world to the
one sphere that contents the unobserv-
ing, but by interesting themselves in the
mode of life, the duties and enjoyments
of all living creatures, they fully use
every moment of existence and multiply
q thousand fold that little span of seventy
years which the multitude find too long.
