THERE is great deal Of unneces-
sary concern and quite as much dis
agreement regarding the position now
occupied by Vice President Arthur.
Que esteemed New York contempor-
ary has the news that he has formed
ON alliance with Secretary Blaine,
and,as a consequence, deserted Conk-
ling, while another esteemed contem-
porary has another kind of news
that the Vice President is still con-
sulting with Conkling and trying to
help him ont of the woods. The
people Of this country have an en-
tirely natural interest in knowing
what the Vice President is up to, Int
there is ne satisfaction whatever TO
be had out of the present situation.
The more probable story is that the
Vice President has concluded to get
along peaceably with the greater part
Of the administration, regardless of
Ex-senator Conkling. There is more
profit for him in such course, and
the Vice President, as everybody
knows, is man who doesn't disdain
the main chan e.-Er. 5000
NoTIcE TO Our DELINQU ENTs.-If
the new comet, which has been but
recently discovered, were to come in
contact with the earth, the tempcra-
ture, according to Prof Newcomb,
would rise to 10000 degrees in the
shade. The professor says:.'&t the
first contact in the upper regions of
the atmosphere, the whole heavens
would be illuminated with resplen-
dence beyond that Of 4 Thousand
suns, the sky radiating light which
would blind every eye that beheld it,
and heat which would Iselt the
hardest rocks. The highest degree
Of heat that may practically be OBJ
tanned in the laboratory is that of
the electric arc, which attains a tenn
perature of 10000 degrees, while, as
we have seen, in its motion through
our atmosphere, a solid body may
generate temperature Of millions
of degrees. A few seconds of this,
while the huge body was passing
through the atmosphere, and the col
lision at the earth's surface, wouldin
an instant reduce everything there
exciting to fiery vapor, and bury it
miles deep in the solia.earth." While
this is not very pleasant summer read
ing, it is wall enough to know just
what we ezpectsin a certain con
tingency. This certainly ought to be
warning to our aeinqucnt sub
scribers.

THERE must be wonderful springs
at Webster Court House,i in this State
If current accounts concerning them
are true. Mr. Smith Crane writes to
the Preston county Journal that the
water from them cannot be bottled as
the gas from it bursts the glass, and
that lighted match held few inch
es above the surface of the springs
causes an ignition. The only class
es of persons to whom the use of
these waters would seem to be alb
solutely dangerous, are those threat
ened with spontaneous combustion.

ONE of the best resolutions passed
by the State Press Association at its
recent meeting in Weston, was that
which appointed the place Of its next
meeting in Wheeling, and fixed the
time during the next session of the
State Legislature. With the guns of
the brethren trained at short range
upon the members Of the two houses
and unlimited stationery in the cloak
rooms, on which to record the indi-
vidnal shortcomings OF individual
Senator's and Representatives, it Fill
he strange if the reforms which the
newspapers have been asking for
vainly in past sessions are not Sc
cured.-htelligencer.
TEE old superstition that 1t is un-
lucky to commence an enterprise on
Friday has had new lease of life
by it's absurdly presumed verification
in the case Of President Garfield. As
10 well known he ;was inaIgursted on
the unlucky day. Soon after the in
auguration Mrs. Garfield was taken
dangerously sick, and for many days
her life appeared to be in an even
balance. When she began TO recov-
err an uncle of the President was-kill,
ed in railroad accident near Cleve-
land, Ohio, and at the same time q
young lady relative was severely
wounded. Then came the dastardly
attempt to assassinate the President
from which he is hardly yet out 81
danger. And now wo receive the
news that his aged and venerable
mother is dangerously i'll at Cleve-
land, Ohio. we hope this afflicted
family will now find rest.-Rerieu
