Roll called by the clerk; all the
members present.
Committee on Taxes and Appro-
priations, made following report;
and on motion Of Supervisor Miller,
tho report was accepted:
To the Hon. Board Of Supervisors, Of
the County of Lake:
We, the undersigned Committee, to
whom was again referred, our report
concerning the several Statements Of
moneys proposed to lie raised ny tax,
In the several townships of the County
Of Lake, having further examined said
statements, woul'l respectfully report
cur action and conclusion thereon: Ia
the matter Of the statements of the
Township of Elk and Pleasant Plains,
on account Of which your Hon. Body
find what appears to us to be error and
irregularity. The statement of the
Clerk Of the Township Of Pleasant
Plains, Is made to the Beard Of Super
visors, and bears date, Oct. 9Th, 1877,
while the statute expressly provides
that the said clerk ''shall on or before
the first day Of Oct, make and deliver
to the supervisor of his township, Ger
titled copy Of all statements" &c. This
statement Is not certified to, at all, and
we are informed It was never delivered
to the supervisor; and fer the reason
that said statement Is not certified, aud
having been executed, as appears from
the date, one week after the time pre-
scribed by law, this Board could not
legally authorize the raising the same,
mentioned In said statement. As to
the statement from the Township Of
Elk, It appears that the voters fixed the
sum for highway purposes, Mt 4 per
cent, and, notwithstanding the Town
Clerk certifies that the per cent. was
90 fixed, and the commissioner of the
township made levy of ! per cent,
making total levy of one per cent !,
we are of the opinion that the J per
cent. voted, 10 the proper sum to be au-
thorized spread, together with the per
cent. for bridge purposes.
Hsss7 NIL i; i: =, Committee
Supervisor Baker moved that the
Chairman subpoena the Township
Clerk, of the Township of Pleasant
Plains, to appear before this Board
ut the hour of ten o'clock q. m, to-
morrow, to give evidence in relation
to the several sums of money, pro-
posed to be raised by tax in--said
township, for the year 1877; which
motion prevailed; all the members
elect, voting therefor.
The Committee on Accounts SUBJ
mittcd and recommended allowance
of accounts as follows:

JOHN BROWNS SOUL ST
MARCHING ON.
STILL

A monument to "that godly man." old
John Brown, was dedicated in Kansas the
other day, and steps were taken to have a
statue of the !elon placed in the old Hall of
Representatives at Washington. As the
Lynchburg Frginidn says, John Brown was
a brave man and he may have been, as
Governor Wise remarked, "thc gamest man
he ever saw" But mere brute courage,
which the savagcs on our frontier possess in
eminent degree, is not the only commendable
quality to be admired and commcmorated in
enduring marble. II cannot, of itself, call
for canonization. John Brown was fanatic !;
he was a murderer, for he shed innocent
blood in time of peace, and in violation of the
laws of the land. Had he fully succeeded,
he would have melted a serviIo war in Fir>
ginia, whose atrocities might have equalled
those that were perpetrated in St Domingo.
Therefore, to place the statue of such man
in the National Capital, would be an outrage
upon the law of propriety, aud standing in>
suit to the South. We have no idea that it
will be permitted.

THE q. S. SENATE.

The Washington Star says: The table of
the next Senate foots up-Republicans, SO ;
Democrats, So, and Independent Republican,
l. On the meeting of the Senate in October
there will be three vacnncics-ouc from South
Carolina caused by the retirement of Senator
Robertson, and two from Louisiana, one being
the vacancy caused by the retirement of Sen
ntor West, and the other being known as the
Pinchback vacancy, which has existed for
four or FIVE years past. Tho applicants for
the South Carolina vacancy are David T. Cor
bin, Republican, and n. G. Butler, Democrat.
The applicants for the two Louisiana vacan>
cies are William Pitt Kellogg, Republican,
and J. 3. Eustis and James Lewis, DEM
ocrsts. In view of the overthrow of the Re
publican government, in party sense, in
those States, it is safe to predict that all these
vacancies will be filled by Democrats. This
would give the Democrats 36 members in the
Senate. Should the seat of the Republican
Senator from Indiana become vacant his place
would be filled by Democrat, probably by
Voorhees, or Hendricks, when tho Senate
would stand, counting David Davis with the
Republican 80 Democrats,
81 a few casualties occurring among the
Republican Senators from y Alabama, Arkansas,
Florida, Mississippi, South Carolina, and
several other States would result in giving the
Senate to the Democrats by fair majority.
That they will have such majority in the
Senate after March 8, 1870 is almost certain.

Changers Day at tho Leetown Camp

Pursuant to public notice the opening day
of Camp Meeting was given to the Changers,
of whom not only the Jefferson members
composed the meeting, but Changers from
Berkeley and Clarke counties participated.
At the proper time Col. Baylor, who was
authorized to install the officers elect Of
Pomona Grange, proceeded with the cere-
mony, assisted by Bro. John II. Strider, to
install the various officers, present, viz Isaac
II. Stridcr, Master J. Hall Wilson, Over
seer; James Fl. Grove, Lecturer; D. IL.
Wiltshire, Steward Daniel Hehebower,
Asst. Steward Eugene Baker, Chaplain !;
V. NJ. Firor, Secretary Edward Ilaines,
Gatekeeper Mrs. Amanda S. Strider, Ceres.
The Treasurer, Pomona, Flora and Steward
ess not being present still remain to be in
stalled, at the next meeting, at Ripon, the
Ord Saturday in September. Tho Ritualistic
exercises will also be conferred in the fifth
or Pomona degree at that time, if suitable
preparation for the same can be had.
After the installation, tho chairman Of the
State Executive Committee, Col. r. W. Bay
lor, read proposition from the Changers of
Berkeley County, requesting the Patrons Of
Jefferson to join them in establishing in Mar
tinsburg joint stock Agricultural Implement
and Phosphate Mandatory to be
S25; after which he introduced to the large
audience of Patrons and others, the Worthy
Master of the State Grange of Virginia, DR..
Blanton, who in real old Virginia style, with
great appropriateness and rare ability, de-
livered one of the most satisfactory and con-
viucing addresses ever listened to by an
appreoiative audience, showing the farmer
to be the last to organize for CO operation and
mutual protection, and the most abused for
doing so, proving that farmers as class
possess the best foragipg grounds for mid
dlemcn.
After the worthy speaker had closed, Col
Thos. NJ. Isbell occupied the stand for short
time in his usual happy and earnest man.

The meeting closed in good time for all to

what they had seen and heard on the first day
of the Encampment at Leetowu.

JUDGE JOHN BLAIR HOGE.

{. The Kanawha Gazette is endeavoring to
sigualize its newly commenced career by some
unjustiiably severe remarks upon Judge Jno
Blair Hoge of this judicial circuit. The
Gazette has yet to learn that an attack upon
mans character may be weakened by its
severity. The prejudice of the writer may
become apparent from the righteousness of his
attack and instead Of iniuring he may ac>
tually benefit his intended victim. We are
not prepared tossay whether Judge Hogc has
or has not any designs upon the gubernatorial
chair OF West Virginia, but certainly if the
Gazette man has already in his minds eye a
successor for Governor Mathews (Which we
think highly probab!e) he has done his friend
no good by an attack which can only enlist
sympathy for instead of prejudice against
Judge Hoge. When the Gdzctte speaks, for
instance, of the purifcatiOn of the judiciary
by the resignation of Judge Hoge, it cxcites
feeling approaching to amusement in COM
munity like this, in which the Judge is best
known, and in which he is rightly considered
a man of ability and without stain upon either
his official or his personal character. We
doubted whether any notice should be taken
OF the Gazenes savage onslaught. Possibly
that paper was instigatcd to the attack as
much by desire to odcertisc itself as by any
other motive But as some of our cotempo>
raries have thought it necessary to enter into
an elaborate defence of Judge Hoge, we de-
sire simply to place on record our very hearty
condemnation of an attack which, in our
opinion, however, was too cztravngant to re-
auire notice.
