ONE of the curiosities in the recent re-
moval contest, was petition from this
county, in which the names purporting
to be signers were arranged in alphabet
ical order. Of this wonderful paper the
Ohio State Journal remarks that mo one
would suspect anybody in that county of
copying the school records in order to
accomplish certain purpose, hence the
surprise at the names indicated. In
years gone by it has not been uncom-
mon to copy the names from the tomb
stones in graveyard in order to present
a stout petition to the. Legislature, but
getting the names in alphabetical order
is curiosity"

Zulu News.

London, July 3.-In the peace nego-
tiations between Lord Chelmsford and
the Zulu king, Chelmsford promised
that if the two cannon captured at Isan-
dula were returned within week and
hostages sent into the British lines as
an evidence of Cetewayo's sincerity, he
would grant an armistice, pending the
arrival of terms of peace, for which he
telegraphed to England three weeks
ago. Chelmsford, at the request of the
Zulu messengers, sketched the outline
of the probable terms, namely:
The enforcement of Sir Bartle Frere g
ultimatum Of unconditional surrender,
indemnity to England for the cost OF
the war, and the return of the spoils
taken at Isandula. If Cetewayo is un-
able to comply with the last-named con-
dition, the British must themselves re-
cover the spoils from the individual
holders. The messengers were warned
to be prepared for the probability of
the final ceremony of the conclusion of
peace at Ulundi.
A dispatch from Cape Town, dated
June 10, says that strong hopes are EN-
tertained of the success of the peace
negotiations.
The British forces are disheartened
and disgusted with the war.
