AN OPINION
Relative to the Election of Township
Assessors.

An opionion was rendered by ATTORNEY
General Baldwin Thursday of considerable
interest. There is a mixed idea as to the
time for holding the next election for Town
ship Assessors, caused by acts of the Ia,
Legislature, which seem to contradict
each other. The opinion was given
TO Ben Rau, Township Assessor. The tax
law of March 20 requires that Township As
SCISSORS be chosen at the next general cleo
ton, which would mean in the fall of 1882
The election law, however, which is "a sub
seqGent act, says that in common with all
other Township officers they shall be elect
e at the general Township election i'm
April, 1882, and the Attorney General holds
that the last provision, being the most re
cent Legislation upon the subject, is the
one that must be observed, so much of the
tax act as is in conflict with the
election law having been repealed thereby
lie further holds however. that the term of
office of Assessors will be four years. a

BAD PORK.


Another case of selling unsound meAt was
discovered Thursday, this time before any
OF the unwholesOme article had been dis
posed OF to the hungry public. A Young
man named Stokes, Of Oakland, this County,
brought to the East Market hog weighing
about POO pounds, which he readily sold to
a butcher. The Marketmaster Glanced t.

was convinced that the hog had been dis
eased or laihed before being killed.
and refused to allow the meat 10
be placed on sale. Stokes Immediately
took his departure, but afterward warrant

East Market street, he was approached by q

but he made a movement as il TO draw a

Mrs. Hardy Hawn, a colored woman who
resides at 227 West Third street, startled the
community in which she lives, last Monday,
by stating that she had poisoned her child,
an infant which died on Sunday about two
months ago. Mrs. Hawn, who is doubtless
insane at this time, states that her husband
was Jealons of the complexion of the child,
and had threatened to leave her, and to main

The colored people are not more migrate
full than other people, intact they are partic-
ularly kind and generous in their treatment
of the old, but at this period, the man who
places himself in the path of the progress of
the people, must of necessity be displaced
by the people. We have in our city colored
men who have passed the meridian of life,
yet they allow no petty jealousy to.. ause them
to withhold their support and encourage

A HARD PARENT.-A sad case came
up before Judge Lamar today, in
which Edward Burns prosecuted his
son in law, Gideon Crull. for horse
stealing. At the time of the arrest
Crnll not having the means to give $500
bail was renfanded to Jail. while his
wife (Burns's daughter) and three
babies had to get along as best they
could among kind friends. Al the trial
today the testimony was conflicting.
Burns positively swearing that Crull
stole the horses from him, while Crulls
wife swore just as positively that her
father had given Der the horses. So
the matter stands; it was a matter of
verscity between father and daughter,
on which testimony Crull was bound
over to appear before the Grand Jury,
in the sum Of $500. 1t looked hard to
see man swear his daug hter's husband
into prison cell. and that, too. with a
ringing. moeking laugh.
