ANOTHER LEARNED EXPLANAu0N.-The last
Reporter explains why there is so large an
amount of County scrip afioat, without money
to pay it. and its consequent depreciation. 1t
says there is due the County from Railroads s12,-
800 taxes, which, if collected would pay all out
standing scrip, and leave surplus in the Treas
ury. This wise statement is made from sheer
ignorance; but If even a willfnl falsehood, it
would be all the same with that the Reporter.
Whether it makes false statement knowingly
or though msapprehension, the Reporter regards
it as the height of manhood and courage to stick
to it. The opposite course in others, it denounc-
es as hypocrisy, OF cowardice. The facts are
these: The floating debt of the County consists
of s., 900 borrowed money, several thousand dol
lars of warrants overdrawn-that is, paid out of
other funds, which must be replaced, and several
thousand dollars of warrants not paid for want of
funds-amounting, in all, to about $4,000. The
total deficiency of the Railroads all levies, for
ls74-5, is little over $4,000. If it were all on
County tax, it would about pay off the floating
debt. The total per centage levied for ls74-5,
was about $3.50 on the 500 valuation. OF this
amount, 20 cents or about one-ffth of the whole,
was for County purposes. The County's proportion
of the delinquent Railroad tax therefore, would be
about g, ,560-just about half enough to pay the
borrowed money-and would still leave over sl0,-
900 of floating debt. All we attempted to show, in
the first place, was the necessity for good busi-
ness tact in the County Board. We still hold to
that opinion, and ALL the Reporters fmsy at
tempts at explaining the financial situation of
the County, only strengthenour position.

PROFESSIONAL sue

Among the notable professional men of this
country who have achieved extraordinary sue
cess is DR.. R. v. Pierce, of Buffalo, n. Y. The
prominence which he has attained has been
reached through strictly legitimate means, and,
so far, therefore, he deserves the enyiable repu-
tation which he enjoys. This large measure of
success is the result of a thorough and careful
preparation for his calling and extensive reading
during long and unusually large practice, which
have enabled him to gain high commendatiOn,
even from his professional brethren. Devoting
his attention to certain specaties of the science
he has so carefully investigated, he has been re-
warded in remarkable degree. In these spe-
cialtes, he has become a recognized leader. Not
a few of the remedies prescribed by hin have, it
Is said, been adopted and prescribed by physi-
cians in their private practice. His pamphlets
and larger works have been received as useful
contributions to medical knowledge. He has re-
Gently added another, and perhaps more impor-
tant work, because of more general application,
to the list of his Published writings. This book,
emitted The Peoples Common Sense Medical
adviser, is designed to enter into general crcu-
iatIon. DIR. Pierce has received Acknowledgements
and honors from many sources, and especially
scientific degrees from two of the first medical
institutions in the land

LEGAL oPINfoN-In response to letter of in.
quiry from Gov. Osborn, Attorney General Ran.
dolph has given a written opinion as to the le-
gality of a session of the Legislature, the coming
Winter. He unhesitatingly decides that the
Constitutional Amendments recently adopted do
not take effect until the session of 1877. very
sensible conclusion. We thought that the long
arguments published in the Commonwealth, pre-
tending to show that, if the amendments were
adopted, they wonld take effect the day after
the election, and would at once throw every
thing out of gear, were simply buncombe, for
the purpose of affecting the vote; but it seems
that some people were IN earnest about it, A
session will be held, usual, in January; but if
that Legislature does not submit additional
amendments, and if the people do not ratify
them next Fall, it will mix things ND badly.
