OLD MAIDS. A sensible writer
expresses his opinion Of old maids in
the following manner: 81 am inclined
to think that many Of the satirical
aspcrsons cast upon old maids tell
more to their credit than is generally
imagined. Isayoumg woman rcmarka-
bly, neat in her person, shc will Ger
tainIy be IN old maid. Is she per-
fcctly reserved toward the other sex,
she has all the squrmishness of an
old maid. Is she frugal in her cxpcn-
scs and her domestic concerns, she is
cut out for an old maid. If she is
kindly humane to the ami mals about
her, nothing can save her from the
appcIlation of an old maid@9 In short,
have always found that neatness,
modesty, rcoApmy and humanity arc
the never failing characteristics Of that
terrible creature. y

IN THE UNIVERSITY MATTER.

liis OPINION By TAKING A HAND
tiiMsELf

a1@~A-~-
At the meeting Of the Board Of SUI
pervisors Of tho University, Oh yester.
day, il transpired through commu-
nication addressed by Col. Heron to
the President Of the Board, that lIc,
as attorney Of the contestants Of tho
old Board, had been empowered by
Attorney General lgan, to sign his
name to any legal procedure institn-
ted against tho gentlemen appointed
| by Gov. Wilt, to iii positions on tho
Board, TINT have beyond n doubt be-
come vacant through the expiration
of the terms Of service specified by
law.
At MI events the Attorney General
ought to have been satisfied with hav'
ing delivered m opinion against the
present incumbcnts, without under
taking to perform duties properly ap-
pertaining to the District officers
within whose jurisdiction IL located
the Institution.
Mr.. Egan will find 1t n difficult
matter, to show to the people that
tho situation was 10 serious, or the
interests Of tho State, 40 much ,jcopar-
died in the hands Of we'll known gcn
,lcmcn, holding commissions, and act
ing in u Board presided over by the
Governor, that it had become neces-
sary to directly intcrposo his autl'ori-
ty in obstructing them from the per
Torrance of their duties.
Many will ask why 1t il that tho
Attorney General goes out Of his or
binary course in this instance? Is h'
50 sure TINT tho new Board Of Super.
visors is exactly in tho position o
those appointccs whose tenure hos
been invalidatcd by the SUPREME
Court?
Why is Mr.. Egan, 80 eager to re-
instatStho old Board Of Supervisors
is tho University in danger Of being
phnndercd or destroyed Tint the At
torncy General cannot afford to IL
the proper officers attend to tho lcga
procedures O
There IL in all this IN excess Of zen
that will not win the admiration o
the people, surely.
The Attorney General should no
forget that there arc two sides to thi
question, and two Boards composed
of respectable citizens of the State
alike entitled to proper trcs4mcm n
the hands of the judicial officers, cs
pccially the one occupying the A's
position to which he has been clcva
o
ted by tho popular vote.
