THAT DEcRIoN.-The point Of this de-
CIsion is that the power OF the Leglsla-
lure 10 prescribe the MANNER Of elec-
tion and appointment ol officers, whose
election or appointment is rot otherwise
provided for In the Constitution, implies
the power TO prescribe the agent or person
who shall be appointed |! Yet the Con-
stltuEon (art. Z, sec. s. says the Governor
and Senate shall say Scto Is 10 Oil such
offices. 1t Is true you can make HOW"
into WHO" by little transposition; but
usage, the standard Of language, will not
permit the change. Now, suppose the
law likes the manner 10 which school
teachers shall be appointed; does that i'm
ply the appointing officer, when superior
law has selected him2 Not at all; II
merely prescribcs rules for tho appoint
ment. Rules and regulations for the ad-
minislration Of any trust, do not imply
who shall administer them, by any means
Yet this Court Of Appeals decides that II
Is so; and the Governor Is both censured

The New Central.

We all know and have distinct and pleas
ing recollections of the old Central House !;
what entertainment was then provided by
the Jolly host what crowd of custom
there did congregate at all seasons of the
year, and what good reputation IT always
enjoyed Well the old Central caught fire
as we all remember in January last, its
works were stopped, its doors were closed
to the public that knew it SO WELL and I'M
til the present month but little has been
known of the Central House to the outside
world But now we shout the glad tidings
and hail the prodigal son. Although the
fire was kindled within lis walls that
threatened destruction, its force was hap
PLY stayed and the House was compare
lively saved. And now the public will
hear with Joy that its doors are again
thrown open TO the seeker after peace and
plenty, and, what adds still more to the
pleasing announcement is the fact that the
same hospitablc hand is there extended as
in days of yore, and the gallant Major SAILS
bury is himself again, the host of the "new
Central" as he was the famous host of the
old.
The Central House is now opened upon
the European plan. 1t is, we think. the only
hotel of the kind in the State. The best
of fare is there provided at all hours, one
and the same, while it still retains its lodg
ing accommodations and VIII always he

tor as we'll 1t has twenty-five rooms for
dodgers, while pleasant parlor, sitting
room, and reading room are provided on
the first floor. 1t has one of the best kit
chens in the State, its dining-room is spac-
ious and well arranged, with accommoda-
tons to seat large number of persons,
while the walters are the best that can be Sc
cured. Take it all in all the "new Cen
trail in its present suspicious opening is
sure to be a success, and we wish it long
life and much prosperity
