Interesting Letter from the
AttOrney-Gener

Mr.. Daniel sends us the following
circular-letter:
To the Clerks of Courts:
To the numerous lei tiers of inquiry
I have received as to the effect of the
recent vote on the constitutional
amendments upon the official tenure
Of clerks of courts L make this general
reply, which, it is hoped, will be satis-
factory: -
1t may be assumed, although the fact
is not yet officially announced, that
the amendments have been ratified by
the people. They substitute maglsse-
rial districts for townships, and fix the
elections both of county and magiste-
rial district offices iclerks of courts
included) for the same day-the fourth
Thursday in May-a3d the officers
then elected will go into office Oh the
lst day of July thereafter. The first
elections under these amendments
will be held on the fourth Thursday
in May 1915, and the officers then
elected will go into office on the Isl
day of July, 1875. But in the mean
time 1.-The legally-constituted of1cers
of the several counties and townships
or the state (clerkS lHcIuueuJ VIII
continue to discharge the duties ol
their offices until the officers provided
for by these amendments shall have
been elected or appointed.H (Sehed'
ule acts, 1874, page I'll ; JOINT resolu'
tion, i'd, page 265.
Had the amendments been rejected
at the late elections, the clerks then
elected would, under the existing law
have gone into office on the lst o
January next, and have served for the
full constitutional term but as they
were ratified, whereby clerks and
other officers are to be elected for fufi
terms on the fourth Thursday in May
next, the elections held when the
amendments were voted on go tol
nothing and the CLERKS then in office
1.-THE old clerks) will continue" t
serve until the 1st day of July, 1870
when they will be succeeded by those
who will have been elected under the
| amendments. The clerks, therefore
elected at the late elections will no
qualify.

THE N. Y. TRIBUNE.
1.-The Leading American Newspaper. "
FOUNDED BY HORACE GREELEY.

In the recent elections the people declared in
favor of honesty in politics and indePendence in
journalism. THE TRIBUNB, which years ago de-
clared it was not and never more would be par
w organ, claims the verdict the popular vindi-
cation OfIts course, and recognizes in the result
the voice of the people for reform and integrity IN
government, for candor and independence among
newspapers. During the campaign which has
just closed THB TRIBUNE has fully maintained its
right to the title of the Leading American News
paper" This position it has learned and retains
for the following, among other reasons
1t publishes all the news, earlier, more fully
ard more itelIigently than any other paper.
II insists on peace throughout the whole conn
try, the right of local self-gOv-rnmont, and the
rotection of all classes in the exercise Of theil
juSt and legal rights.
II advocates confidence and good feeling betweer
North and South, and labors for honest and
abiding reconciliation.
1t maintains fairness and candor toward all pub
lie men and questions and dignity and courtesy
toward associates and rivals,
1t publishes scientific news, reports, discussions
and discoveries a degree of fullness and aSeura
cy never before attained by any paper. =
1t gives every week ten or more columns OF thu
most csrefully prepared agricultural matter du
ring he year, much more in the aggregate thai
the entire contents of any other agricultural pub
cation, and the whole forming department o
which eminent agricultural editor said at ha
done more to make good farmer than any othen in
fuence which ever existed
1t has published series of scientific and litera
ry extras which have met a wider sale and NOR
emphatic popular approval than any similar publ
cation of the kind.

THE CONSTITUTIONAL AMEND
MENTs have been ratified by a ma
iority of over $4,000. We shall hear
no more about townships-but mag
isterial districts, as in former days.
The changes are about as follows !:
,Magisterial districts instead of towns
ships each county to be divided into
SO many magisterial districts as may
be deemed necessary, not less than
three in each district there shall be
elected one supervisor, three justices
of the peace, one constable, and one
overseer. of the poor, who shall hold
their respective Offices for the term of
two years, : each msgisterial district
shall be divided into as many school
districts as may be deemed neces-
sary,' provided, no school district
shall be formed containing less than
one hundred inhabitants; in each
school district there shall be elected
or appointed annually one schOo!
trustee who shall hold his Office
three years :. provided, however, that
at the first election under this pro-
vision there shall be elected three
school trustees, : who shall hold their
office ono, two and three years. The
present system of keeping up the
roads, is abolished, and Of course We
fall back on the old plan,
In each county there shall be
elected one sheriff, one attorney for
the Commonwealth, one clerk, one
county treasurer, and as many COM
missioners of the revenue as may be
provided by law, and there shall be
appointed, in such manner as may be
provided by law, one superintendent
of the poor and one county surveyor,
and there shall be appointed ; as now
provided by law, one superintendent
of schools. All regular elections for
county and township officers shall be
on the 4th Thursday in May, and
these officers shall enteE' upon the
discharge of their duties on the first
of July next after their election.
All county officers are elected for
four years except clerk OF the court,
who shall be elected for six years.
From the above it will be seen
that we get rid of the November
elections for county officers. We gel
rid of a number Of township officers,
We get rid Of the present road sys,
TEN.
The schedule of these constitu-
tionsl amendments provides: Thai
TIE legally constituted officers of the
several counties and townships at the
date of the ratification of these
amendments by the people, Shal
continue to discharge the duties o
their respective Offices until th'
officers provided for by these amend
ments shall have been elected or ap
pointed and qualified. And the i'm
preston is that a general election
will take place next May for all coun
ty and township officers, includin!
representatives TO the House Of Dele
gates.
