10 our charge that Gov. Ames had. in
defiance of the Legislature and in con
tempt of the Constitution and laws, APP
pointed certain officials in Washington
county, the Daily Times, of the 29th ult.,
replies as follows:
This is what the TIE CLARION Gals finp-
iilS deIh1cc ia the face OF the Lrgi stature
Now II The CLARION will turn To section
lob Of the Revised Code OF 1871. which has
nor BEEN repealed, il will find am pie author
Itt Tor the action OF the Governor. The re-
peilIng of the law OF 1874. certainly did not
AFFECT the old law. The Cole says:
nd he (tlIe Governor) shall also appoi ut
lot All vacancies occurring from any cause
10 such offices during Il vacation OF the
senate; anu. also, ig al Other UQcGRcies. not
otherwise prorjded By Ia,y.''
We advise tine Times TO read first from
the Constitution, Article VI, viz:
SECTION %. A competent number OF
) Justices OF the Peace and ConStabes shall
oe CHOSEN IN each coHnJy hy the qstaf.tied
etectyns thereof by disJric.s, no shall mold
their oilice Tor the term of TWO years
And secondly from the Code Of 1871,
which provides:
SECTION 1899: .sIn case vacancy shall
Happen in the Office OF justic., CT the peace,
The Board OF Supervisors, or the presiarHt
thereof, in vacation sl,a}E 0rdef an election
10 be held in The proper district to fill such
vacancy, etc
SECTION 279: Vacancies happening iii
the office OF constable shall be .fIted ~ elec-
ton tor the uHcXpired term In the manner
provided for filling vacancies III the office
OF Justice OF the peace
1t will be seen by the above that if the
Governor can appoint Il justice of the
peace he can appoint member of the
Legislature.
We would like to know if it is really
the legal opinion Of the Times that sec
ton 106, Code of 1871, referred to by
it, nullities the Constitution and abro-
gates section 1899 and 279 And further,
if the Governor, has not violated his oath
to support the Constitution and enforce
the laws, in appointing or attempting to
appoint, officers that the Constitution re-
quires shall be elected, and in obedience
thereto the law provides the mode of cleo
ton +?

THERE is a very general inquiry
among the people why a bill has not been
passed, as contemplated, dlssolving the
existing organization of the Lunatic
Asylum, and the adoption of plan of
management under other control imbued
with the spirit and motive of reform.
Besides, the present Superintendent,
Doctor Compton, has been in possession
of the office for six years, and it would
be no hardship to him if the wholesome
democratic doctrine of rotation was APP
piled.

the Pacific Railroad Committee, by a
vote of 8 to 4, laid the consideration of
the Pacific road aside, subject to be called
up by majority of the whole committee,
which is seven, at any time. We hope
it means that the question is laid aside
for the present in order that the pressing
work of the hour, the reduction of ex-
penditures and the villainies of the party
in power, may receive attention.

FOR THE LADIES.

Nets for the hair are again coming
into vogue.
Guipure net is still preferred for lace
polonaises.
Shawls ofal sorts appear to be slow
ly coming INTO favor again.
Simple bonnets of coarse straw are
much oruamented with snow gauze.
Long white scarfs of Grape lisse are
now worn as neckties for morning.
Double-breasted and diagonal fronts
are much seen on imported dresses.
Bows and headings to founccs are
lined with strongly contrasting colors.
Artificial flowers are abundantly used
both on bonnets and for head dresses.
Elderly ladies fipd guipure lace shawls
among the handsome wraps provided
for their wear.
For evening dresses new triming of
richly embridered wide silk galloons in
light eolors.
Silk and lisIe-tliread gloves in gray
and ecru, some with puffs at the wrist,
are in fashion for the summer days.
Dark myrtle-green parasols, bordered
with green shaded cocks plumes, are
counted with the Paris ladies' driving
parasols.
A new fashion, set by Mile. Bettipa
Rothschild, for wearing the bridal veil,
gives, in place of the ordinry veil of
square tulle, sort of lace shawl. which
is placed toward on the forehead a la
Marie Stuart-an arrangement infinite
ly more becoming than the usual square
veil.
The new hats, which are very original
in style and introduced for country wear,
are known as the maconnais and the
auvergnat. The one is all black, with
black velvet bows and thick ruche Of
black lace all around. The others is of
Leghorn straw, and has a wide velvet
string passing over the crown, with a
large tutt of flowers placed under the
brino at the back.

IN Arkansas: a terrible affair occurred
here short time since. Three men con-
cluded to make a midnight raid on
neighbours smoke-honse, which. was of
logs; they succeeded in getting a pry
under the corner Of It, and fitting i
sufficiently for man to crawl in. One
was sitting on the end of the lever, one
had gone in and one was about half
way, when the owner discovered them
He got his rifle, killed the one on the
end of the pry, which let down the house
on the one crawling in, which killed
him; then loaded his gun, went ont and
shot the one in the smoke-honse through
a crack.
