GREAT disappointment will be teit by
scientific men in this country and in
Europe by reason of the failure OF the
Polar Expedition which sailed from
New York on the Goth of June, 1871.
1t was fitted out by the Government at
an expense Of fifty thousand dollars
and was more perfectly equipped than
any similar expedition heretofore.
Captain HALL, the commander OF the
expedition, was an old Arctic explorer
having made voyage in 1860 in search
Of the remains OF Sir JOHN FRANKLIN,
and knew well the difficulties he would
be compelled to encounter Among
his officers and crew were several
men who had visited the Polar region
in company with the lamented Doctor
KANE. The failure OF the expedition
and the death OF its chief may perhaps
operate as serious check upon fur.
Their efforts TO penetrate the high north
ern ATTITUDES, though it is by no means
improbable that restless spirits, itching
for fame, will still seek death in the en-
deavor to reach the North Pole.
The survivors who have been picked
up. left the Polaris on the 18th OF last
August, and have been floating on the
ice from that time until the Goth OF
April. There will be much anxiety rs

THE APPOINTING POWER.

On the 4th OF last January We pub,
lisbed an argument written by WIZ. F.
ARNOLD, Esq, of Weston. relative to
the appointing power conferred sy the
Constitution upon the Governor. The
object Of the argument at that time was
to show that the legislature might pro-
vide by law for the appointment OF
various officers, such as Notaries Public
for instance, without requiring such
appointments to be confirmed by the
Senate. According to the!Eighth Section
of Article VII Of the Constitution all
officers Whose appointment or election
is not otherwise provided for :" are to be
appointed by the Governor, by and
with the consent OF the Senate, but Mr..
ARNOLD showed conclusively that the
legislature might provide by law for
appointment in certain cases where the
consent Of the Senate would not be
necessary.
Taking The view Of the question that
Mr. ARNOLD sets forth, the Legislature
has provided for the appointment oil
Notaries Public By the Governor with
out subjecting such appointments to
confirmation, and Governor JACOB has
accordingly appointed many OF these
officers, even during the session o. the
legislature, aud has not thought it re-
cessary 10 apply to them tha: interPre-
tstion OF the Constitution which he in
sists upon in other similar cases. tie
has thus, in these instances. recog-
nized that power of the legislature 10
provide bylaw for The appointment OF
officers, which, in the case OF Directors
and Superintendent Of The Penltentlary'
he SO emphatically denies.
But Mr.. ARNoLD's argument goes
farther and touches the Identical Qn2s-
ton new in controversy between The
Governor and the Legislature. we
therefore republish it this morning ior
the sake OF bringing airesh before our
readers the argument adduced nearly
five months ago in support OF the au-
thority OF the Legislature to provide by
law the manner by which the various
offices created by law may he filled
The argument derives additional force
from the fact that Mr.. ARNOLD was then
and is now q warm admirer OF Goyernor
JACOB, having, as we are informed
voted for him last August, and being
now disposed to support him in every
thing he does in accordance with law.
He shows very clearly IN the article
which we publish herewith that the
Legislature has full authority to pro-
vide for the appointment of a Board
of Directors for the Penitentiary. and
that in resisting hissuthority the Cow
ernor has been guilty Of n grave viola.

Last Sunday Evening.

According to appointment, a respectable
crowd assembled in the Methodist Church in
this place last Sunday evening, at 8 O'Clock,
to witness the exercises and hear Mr.. Bond's
address. After several songs and Rotations
of scripture by the children, including that of
the Beatitudes, which was admirably done by
a class of girls and class of boys, Mr.. John
B. Bond was introduced to the audience, and
delivered highly interesting address, which
was listened TO with Tapt attention. He began
by giving an account of the origin, spread and
good effects of Sunday Schools, with al. sp
propriate tribute to Robert Raikes, their
founder. The remainder of the address was
devoted to the discussion of the following
propositions or theses:
LIST. Mankind cannot and will not do with
out religion of some kind. His arguments on
this point were striking and original, and con-
elusive, lighted up with many beautiful fancy
touches.
I'd. God could not, in harmony with His
nature, have withheld the true religion from
the ancient world. Therefore, Judaism in its
day was the true religion.
Sd. God could not, in harmony with His i'm
mortality, have proposed two plans of saliva
ton. Therefore Christianity and Judaism are
the same religion.
He showed from the history of the race, tn At
the human family, in all ages and conditions
of society, had turned with unerriug instinct
to the worship of God. That they developed
the same innate idea of worship, whether
savage or civilized, bond or free.
He proved that the Jewish prophecies had
looked to coming Messiah, aud that Judas n
sought sal alton through Christ TO come.
That Jesus Christ is tne Messiah foretold by
the prophecies of Judaism. That we cannot
therefore n tiutain Christianity and reject th e
claims of Judaism, since they mutually sup
port and depend upon each other.
Before closing the exercises of the evening
Rev. Mr.. McFerrin thanked Mr.. Bond for his
address, and announced that similar enter
tainments would be given monthly, for the
children.

A Remarkable CaSa

w. A. Graham, alias w. D. Motif,
was tried recently by the Criminal Court
of Marshall county, upon an indictment
for obtaining money under the false
pretenso thaJ he was a Mason in dis
tress--haVing been defrauded OF his
money somewhere en- route from North
Carolina to his home in Missouri. The
remarkable feature in the case is that
some six or seven of the oldest, most
substantial and reliable men in and
around Lewisburg testified, that on
Sunday IN morning, June I'd, 1872, the
accused, under the name of w. A. Gra~
ham, was in Lewisburg-on tn 1t morn
ing applied to come of the officers, and
did OBTAIN SIS to assist him to his home
in the stare of Missouri, with the prOm~
lie to return the money in thirty days.
The accused proved an abb by three
respectable looking gentlemen, and his
little daughter, fifteen years OF age, who
live in Huntsville, Ala. They testified
that on the same morning, at the very
same hour the money was obtained by
Graham, the accused was at the Baptist
Church in Huntsville, in attendance on
Sunday School exercises-and WAS on
that very morning appointed on a COM
mittee with the three witnesses who tes-
tilted to the abb, to provide for a Sun
day School picnic in Huntsville. Wit
nesses both tor the State and the defense
could refer TO record evidence of the
date and circumstances of the events at
Lewisburg end Huntsville.
The accused was acquitted, upon the
ground OF a reason able doubt OF guilt.

IA After this issue, the Columbia HERALD and
the Columbia Mali sill be consolidated, Capt.
]. B. Murphy having sold out TO Horsley
Bros Figuers. The Mail Job Office will be
run as usual. It has long been our opinion
that two papers cannot be sustained at Column
bia. Il must be remembered that nearly half
of the population ofMaury county are negroes
very few Of whom take any newspaper at all.
Two papers at Columbia are severe tax upon
our merchants, for they do not like to adver~
tise in one paper without also inserting in
the other, and when they do they are cheated
of their money, because the PAGERS generally
have the very same subscribers. Our best
business men have long urged the necessity
of the consolidation of the HERALD and Mail
upon this ground.
After the experiment Just made by the Mail,
we presume no one will be so unwise as to I'M
dertake TO start another paper in Columbia
II was started under he most favorable aus
pices. with the prestige of having an editor
whsse fame as q journalist was co-extenSive
with the Union, and conducted by one, of less
repdte, but of as much ability and nerve. The
Mail did not fail for lack of ability in its edi-
tors. or sagaeity in conducting it, but simply
because two papers cannot survive in Column
bia, and the HERALD had the advantage of
being an old, well established paper. Our re-
lations with Capt. Murphy, the retiring edi-
tor, have been pleasant and agreeable. He
yields treuchaut pen and whatever he may
engage in, he will make his mark.

Things Matrimonial.
0 the Editors Of the Columbia Herald

To the Editors Of the Columbia Herald:
We tender our sincere congratulations
to friend Figuers, and are glad that he
has forsaken bachelorhood and taken
to himself companion to cherish and
assist him through this lie of trials and
tribu1ations. May their lie be one OF
continual bliss, and ever as fairy tale.
We extend our heartfelt sympathles to
friend Horsley, tor the loss OF his bosom
friend, and propose that he get up club
OF Rejected Lovers tor this county.
There is no doubt that club of this
kind, organized upon good basis, will
become one of the most select affairs OF
the kind in the country, as tar as sturdy
manhood and bOnhOnnlle are concerned;
for no man knows how much clear
nerve and hard sense he possesses until
he has been called upon to face the
dread ordeal OF having his ''Giral" go
back on him. There is something in
the spirit OF an inception such as is
realized in this "Club of Rejected Loy-
ers" to challenge the kindly considera-
ton Of any man liz whose breast there ia
