Question. You know spelling bees
are in season. viii you obEge us with
the correct spelling in the plural of the
word employe2
Webster's unabridged being the stand
ard, did not the judges err in ruling out
of the class competitor who spelled the
word employeesG
Reply. Webster's unabridged, latest
edition, gives only the spelling of the
word-employ-and remarks that "the
English form-employee-althoughc cor
rect according to The rules of analogy
is not sanctioned by the usage of good
writer's. " We gave the true significance
of the different examinations last Novem-
Der in our issue of the 9Th of that
month. The original French word en-
ploye with an accent over the final e)
is q substantive masculine, and in the
plural is employees. In this form it re.
fers only to males who are employed.
When it is used to describe female
who is employed, it is written employee,
and the plural is employees. French
nouns must be definitely masculine OF
feminine, hence the change in termina
ton to signify the different gender. Ii
common English composition it is writ
ten with two e's in the final syllabl,
whether it refers to males or females
and in this form is likely to be finall,
adopted in the language.
Question. A purchased goods from
me and paid for them, requesting then
to be kept in my store subject to my
order. Meantime fire occurs therein
destroying the goods. Who should suf
fer the loss, he or II
My stock in the store was insured
Could the companies that insured b,
compelled to pay the loss on the above
mentioned goodsl
Reply. We discussed this at grea
length at the time of the Boston fire. 1
there is no insurance applicable to tn
the goods, and they are lost, the los
falls on the owner. The question is on
of delivery. The buyer is the owner i
he has accepted delivery and paid for tn
property. In that case, if the occupan
of the store has no insurance save tn
policies that apply to his own goods, tn
property thus left with him is not GOV
cred. But if he has insurance applica
bic to all property in his custody, thel
it is to be applied pro rata to all th,
goods destroyed, and the remaining los
if any, will fall on the buyer.

TOLEDO VARIETY WORKS.
A Few Interesting Facts CLEANED from
apersOnal visit TO the above Exten-
sive and Prosperous Mandatory.

ID 80
Prominent among the leading manu-
factories of Toledo is the above excellent
and popular works, the trade Of which
was first established so far back as 1853,
on Summit street, and still continues
to flourish, The energetic proprietors,
-WooDRUFF & SoN-the former Of
whom has had over twenty years ex-
perience in the businoss-are manu-
facturers Of caves trough fastenings,
leader hooks, stove trucks, hampers,
stove rods, safe heads, and tinner's
trimmings generally. Their works are
located at 119 and 121 Water street, are
three stories, with frontage of 30 #. d,
extending back over 100 feet. On pay
ing them visit we found both principals
of the firm attentively engaged in super
intending the business, in which they
evidence a most lively interest, while on
every hand the most modern and ap-
proved machinery (chieAy Of Mr.. Wood
ruff sr's own invention) was spinning
along at lively rate-indeed, as prac-
tical mechanic, it is strictly evident on
every hand that Mr.. W., has but very
few equals in this section. The chief
point of attraction we found to be their
suspended eave-trough fastenings. BY
this arrangement the house and cornice
is not disfgursd as by the common
method of putting up troughs. They
will hold more straight and firm; will
not rust; give a neat finish to the cornice
can be elevated or lowered to conform
to the pitch of the building by the sim
pie mode of elevating or lowering the
nuts on the rod without removing the
fastenings from the building, or can be
taken down to clean without removing
the same. In fact, Woodruff suspend
ing eave-trough fastenings" are acknow
lodged unsurpassed, in the experience
of builders, and have gained a noteriety
unparalleled in the trade. This firm
has also very ingenious and neat stove
pipe thimble and register combined
which is particularly worthy the atten
tion of builders and evidentlys splendid
safeguard against fire. Their stove
trucks of which they manufacture very
heavily are not made of grey iron, as
formerly, but of maleable iron, which
cannot break OF other equally meri
torious articles in their trade we could
treat to the extent of column, but
prefer to simply remark there is, to al
appearances, something of everything
and each something has some peculiar
special merit-these works affording
abundant evidence they are verify
devoted to variety" in the full
est sense of the term. Most Of
our local hardware stores represent the
manufactures of Woodruff & Son, whose
name may invariably be taken as 9
guarantee to the hebestinventions and most
reliable goods-hence westrongly recon-
mend those requiring any such articlesaf
we have enumerated above, that they in
varirbly ask for Woodruff & Sons man
facture-from Toledo Variety Works
and if they see that such is really sup
piled to them, we are fully assured o.
abundant satisfaction being the re
suit.

THE CHINESE YAM.

The Yam, or Manioc root, lately i'm
ported from China, is a most excellent
vegetable, and may be cultivated with
profit in ATTITUDES like those of middle
Illinois and Indiana, but generally
speaking, has not been duly noticed.
The yam requires very little attention.
In the first year the soil is to be kept
loose and free of weeds after that it takes
care of itself, when especially it begins
to be most useful. You may plant
enough at one time to do you for years
to come, the yam roots increase in size
with every year. Having been in the
ground some three or four years, the
root is just as good as if it had been there
but one year. They may be used fol
the kitchen at any season of the year,
and may be left in the ground until
needed. When boiled they are dry and
mealy, and, as to appearance and taste,
resemble our common potato. Yet they
are far more reliable as vegetable, for
so far no insects have been discovered as
injurious to their growth, while drought
checks its growth but little, compared
with its long life. In certain soils the
yam prospers better than other vegeta.
bles. They flourish best in light, dry
soil, but they are known to grow, too, in
the poorest clay. You may train the
vines on stakes or espaliers, and they are
thus calculated to adorn many a spot.
You may leave them spread, however, on
the ground. You should gather the bulbs
from the vines in the fall, and plant
them in the spring. After one year they
go vertically into the ground some two
or more feet. Perhaps the fact that they
grow SO deep may be regarded as excep-
tionable, but we must remember that
their diameter increases in ratio to the
depth they acquire. Louis Globe.

GREAT ACTIVITY AMONG THE ''roTAro BuGs"--1nE
COALITION TAKING SHAPE.

GREAT ACTIVITY AMONG THE "roTAro BUGs"-1nE
COALITION TAKING SHAPE.
From the Baltimore SUM- 2S:l.l
For some time past there have been move
ments on foot, now definitely taking shape, in
tended to secure coalition OF republicans III
dependent voters and dissntipiiea democrats
into strong opposition to tho regular democra-
tic nominees in the State at large HIS well AZ in
baltimore city. Tho elements OF opposition to
the leaders OF the democratic party first appear
ed in the Inst election for members of the Leg
isiatnre. Recent events have increased this
classification, and tho republicans, to take adj
vantage of it, have, it would seem, decid-
ed upon Il mastery inactivity, allowing tho I'M
attached and dissatisfied clements to suggest
men who will be approved by them so AZ to
form coalition. To what extent this scheme
may be carried out harmonously remains to be
seen, but 1t Is certain every encouragement has
been given to it.
II is not expected that the Republican convcn-
ton which Will assemble III Westminster on the
ltll will nominate State ticket Conferences
have taken place between leading republicans,
persons Identified with the new party,
and still others who are looked upon
as democrats dissatisfied with the workings of
their party. Candidates to bs named on State
ticket, which, it is stated, will receive the sup
port of all the elements opposed TO the regular
democratic ticket, have been either determined
upon or the iavorites narrowed down to two for
each place.
On Saturday it WAS understood that Hon.
Richard l. Bowie, of Montgomery county, chief
judge of the sixth judicial DISTRICT had been de-
llnitely determined upon AZ the candidate for
Governor, his nomination, it having boon learn
cd. being satisfactory to the republicans. Judge
Bowie was elected as an Independent candidate
in his judicial district, composed of Montgomery
aud Frederick counties. lie received the
whole republican vote, and is known
Rs conservative republican. For Comp
troller Col. Edwards wilkins, of Kent,
aud Chas. NJ. Jump, of Talbot. are named,
the preference being for the former. Judge Vim.
Y. Mausby and J. Morrison Harris are spoken OF
for the Attorney-G eneralship. 1t lis expected
by those who claim to know that the ticket will
be Bowie, wilkins and Maulaby.

THE PROBABLE COMPETITORO GOVERNOR
uARTRAEFT

A Washington telegram, elsewhere printed
comedies in it's statements with other indca-
tons to the effect that Hon. Henry 7. Rose is to
be the Democratic candidate for Governor of
Pennsylvania, provided the Wallace Ring can
manage things at the Erie Convention. Judge
Ross is now the presiding Justice on the bench
OF Montgomery county. and though born and
ERASED" at Doyles,own, has his residence at
Norristown, VIII ch is also the home of Governor
Hartranft. He is good lawyer, and has made
fairly satisfactory judge, though he WAS more
popular as an incumbent OF the bench, a year or
two ago, than he has been recently. One OF the
Democratic newspapers of his own town openly
expresses its criticism On him. by saying hc dips
into politics too much for Judge, and this Is no
doubt a very generally entertained opinion. 1t
is certain that he has been much interested, and
at times actively concerned in tie intrigues of
his party In State politics since he went Oh the
bench, and he probably neglected nothing that
would quietly help forward the nomination which
is expected to be had for him at Erie. The plain
talk which his party paper referred to, the Rtq-
lister, holds in regard to him, will be interest
ing, if he should be the candidate.
Judge Ross, though an aspiring and manag
ing politician, has Eover been particularly suc
cessful. lie ran for Congress in the Bucks dis
trict, in 1864, and was beaten by Hon. NJ. Rus
sci! Thsyer, now judge of the Philadelphia
courts, aud again in 1866, aud was a second time

RfslGNATIoN OF wAt. r. noDdsos-ALFRED +. ROB.
ISsoN HIS sucGEssoR-SET CASTLE COUNTY LEFT
OUT IN THE COLD.
The resignation Of Deputy At;orney-General
W. r. Hodsson has been rendered Attorney
General Pennington and has been accepted.
Alfred 7. Robinson, who has been acting IT,
deputy in Kent and Sussex, fills the vacancy.
Thus far no deputy has been named specially
for this county, and wo are not advised that any
will be. And yet there is very general feeling
among the members of the bar IN this city that
such an appointment should be made. Fuily
twice much criminal busuess is
presented to the Courts in New Cas-
tie NJ in either Keut and Sussex, and
the proper disposition OF thln business re-
quires that either the Attorney General or his
deputy should reside here. At the very next
session of The Court several capital cases will be
tried, and one prominent member OF the New
Castle bar svos it AZ his opinion tia. the prop
or working up of these cases will require the
continued presence Of some one specially en-
trusted with this work. Fur ther, cases might
arise, and frequently do arisc in this city,
where the Attorney General Or bjs deputy ia
needed to conduct tho preliminary examination
on the part Of the State. II they are absent de-
lays must consequently follow, which might be
unjust to the prisoner or might possibly afford
him All opportunity for escape.
Attorney General Pennington should mske
some provision by which either himself or
deputy will reside in Wilmington.

schools.

now THEY MAY BE ORDAINED -soNr INFORMATION
FaoM TIE STATE BOARD or EDUCATION.
The State Board Of Education have Issued u
notice to the pablo, giving come information a.
to how the new books which the Board have
purchased OF advantageous terms, and other
mattets vi interest. Il. iu,l,N-.
The tcrnIs winc.i us. .,-k- are intro
duced not being generally undUrstood, the
Board has deemed it proper to give such infor-
nation in reference TO ii as Will assist school
committees and individuals in Obtaining books
at the lowest possible cost. Iu tile ilgst place,
publishers, whose books have been adopted
will allow for all old books, IN exchange for new
half the retail price charged for new ones OF
the same grade and kind as the old. In other
words, book which retails for one dollar can
be had for fifty cents and an old book Of the
same kind, no matter by whom published.
When no old books are used in exchange, new
ones can BIO had forty per cent. less than tho
retail price. These conditions will continue
until the schools are oItce supplied, after which
prices will be as heretofore.
AZ to tho best mode OF making exchanges and
buying new books, those directly interested
must decide for themselves whether it would be
more economical for school committees to gather
up the old books and deal directly with publish
ere, or make arrangements ~ individuals or
committees with some neighboring dealer to Of
feet the exchanges for them, will no doubt be
determined by considerations Of economy, and
the best interest Of those most deeply concerned.
1t is desirable that the introduction of
the new books shonld take place as rapidly
as possible, as when once in the schools it
will greatly conducc to their efficiency in an edn-
cAtional point OF view, RI well as to save to the
people OF the State thousands of dollare, here
tofore spent for heterogeneous mass Of books.
Catalogues containing tho retail price OF the
books adopted, can be had on application to the
publishers.
