ARE rot the Young conquerors at Middle
bury exacting pretty severe terms OF their
late superiors in authority: 1t would seem
10 be sufficiently complete submission on
the part OF the President and faculty to agree
TO let by-gones be bygoncs, leaving the ques-
ton of any wrong on the part of the students
to each students conscience, in view of their
collective and individual declaration that
they did net consider that they had done
any wrong and receiving back all hands on
their agreeing 10 obey future college
requirements-w which is simply and precisely
what each student agreed to do when
he became member of the college
But the majority Of the boys, it seems, de-
mand something more. The faculty must
accept each mans written declaration that
he has done no moral wrong; must further
admit that the stadcnts were right, by re-
hitting all demerits and must agree to pay
proper attention" to future demands on
the part Of their young masters. Probably
the students think they are sufficiently mag
unanimous in not requiring written apology
from President Hubert for all the trouble
he has put them 10. Blu; while that might
be given, if demanded, it will strike most
outsiders, we fancy, that the boys should
temper their exactions with a little more
mercy.

The Phonograph.

The exhibition of this wonderful
machine in L.mden by Prof. Duval
gave many Of our people cI oppor-
tunity Of Witnessing the astonishing
results of it's working. Electricity
forms no part Of its construction, as
we bad supposed before we saw it,
but it is simply constructed and OPP
Grated upon principles of vibration.
TO give ii satisfactory explanation OF
the combination OF causes which Ell
ables it to reproduce lhe human
voice, is beyond OH ability. We
listened with the utmost attention
to long scientific discourse by the
Professor, in which he explained all
about the vibrations Of the drum Of
the ear being similar to the vibra-
tons of tic drum OF tie cylinder,
connected by the three links Of bone
in the diaphram communicating to a
sympathetic fluid OF the needle
making grooves on sheet of tin
foil that strikes IL pieca CT mica,
which returns the sound on two &C.
centric screws worked by a reversi-
bic windluss into tin funnel made
of pasteboard, which gave out the
words words thet t.: :.;! hs3 55een spoken into the
instrument through q mouth-piece.
This is about as lucid q description
as we can give, and we hope it is
clear to our readers. Those who
were there will understand the pho
nograph better than we can explain
it, and those who did not go deserve
to know no better because. they did
not take our advice.
Prof. Duval, first spoke selections
from Mother Goose's Melodies in
to the machine, which were repro
duced in q distinct tone, but not as
loud as the natural voice. 1t rather
had the sound of a voice that was
some distance away. Laughter
could be reproduced with more dis
tinctness than anything else. In
singing the, key would often change
to higher note. The voice could
also be changed from a baritone to a
high falsetto by turning the wheel
faster. This was exhibited in the
conversation which WAS made to oc-
cur between a young man and his
sweetheart, and when the young lady
in IL high treble interrupted the bass
of the young man by saying, Never
mind ahont the woodshed, George,
go OIL with your pretty Talk every
one looked around at q our Senior,
whose face WIS at the time redder
than Capt. Langs.
The phonograph is a remarkable
triumph of science, and Prof Duval
took great pains TO exhibit al its
working to his audience.

The Bonds of County Officers.

When the control Of our public
vtlices was in the hands OF the Rad
icals. it was thepractice of the county
commissioners to approve the bonds
Of county officers without regard to
their validity. This is relic OF
,ndicalism which should be forgotten
low. One of the gravest duties
shat devolve upon the county com
missioners is to see that the interests
cf the peoples are thoroughly protected
IN the security which a public servant
3 required to give for the faithful
and honcstperformance Of his duties.
The personal integrity and honesty
~f the man is a foreign matter, and
should have no influence when his lis
bond is presented for approval. II
1t is not sufficient, it should be re-
jected. The law requires this, and
the law is a good one.

County Auditors end Treesurers.

We learn that it is the almost mi
unanimous desire of the people in
every part of our State that these OF,
fees should be made elective instead
Of appointive. They were made ap-
pointive by the tadical admlnlstra-
tion so that they could get entire
control of the funds belonging to
the State and give them II better op-
portlmity to rob and plunder our peo-
pie. The thing has changed now to
the party who are supposed to do
what is right and proper by their
constituents, and we add our voice
that the next Legislature relegate
these positions to the votes of the
people, instead of the individual
choice of one man. There is too
much room for favolites to come III,
as the thing now stands. to the eX-
clusion Of the choice of majority
of the tic voters. Let us return to
the good old plan, and elect them.

Hard on Chess Players.

We find the following remarks il
the Abbeville Neiiu,n, which strikes
very hard at the lovers of chess.
"Chess is getting to be n popular game
with a number of our men who have leis-
ure. Is not this as immoral in its tendency
rs social game of cards? Neither one is
sinfu! per Sc but 10th require waste OF
valuable time which might proftably be
employed in doing good. Both encourage
habits of idleness and laziness, and we
can't sec the consistency in crying down
billiards and allowing chess playing to 90
trunrebuked. Chess playing is harmless in
itself but leads on to evil just ms cards and
billiards. We direct the attention of the
pulpit to this game, and warn them of the
consequences if halt is not called to it..
With this hint we shall consider that we
have done our duty in the matter"
The man who penned the above
lines may be good man, and mean
well, but they sound more like they
emanated from rash fanatic. We
have never before seen chess con-
demned as an immoral game, and
the pulpit called on to check it. We
are satisfied that the writer has no
more knowlege of the game than if
he had never heard Of it before, and.
therefore, is not com, etent to speak
of it. An evil mind can make evil
out of any thing. Tie classes the
game with cards and billiards. There
is no more likeness between them
than day is like night. Chess are
seldom seen elsewhere than in par
lors or drawing rooms and other
places where ladies and gentlemen
are to be found. The others are sell
dom seen elsewhere than in gam
bling saloons, bar rooms and other
like places of vice and rowdyism.
You can now compare them and stu
dy the difference before you again
attempt to condemn it.
