Governor delivered his opinion in two

Charles r. Harmon for alleged intoxi-
cation at the sitting in 1879, and also
for being little "swipey" at the sit
ting in 1880, though at the latter not
being incapacitated from attending to
his duties. VIM. T. Lee is ordered
removed because he registeredpersons
upon certificate of transfer, without
the person transferred being present.
The Governor says the practice OF
registering upon certificates oftransfer,
without the personal appearance of
the party to be registered, is not only
without authority, but, upon the con-
trary, is in direct violation of the law
The law requires the presence of every
person desiring to become voter
before the register for the purpose.

PROSPERITY TX THE SoUTH,--A
correspondent Of the Washington Post
writing from Petersburg, Va, under
date Of 18th inst, says
The tide Of immigration appears at
length TO have taken southern course
in consequence Of the manifest pros
perity now so prevalent in different
parts Of the South. In the last year
and half over Sl000O0,00O Of CAPT
tai has been invested in railroads, etc.
in the South, exclusive Of large
amounts expended in the Southwest
Syndicates have been formed in
various States such az Georgia Pacific,
with a capital Of Sl2,0O0,0O0; the
Cincinnati and Georgia, with CAPT
tai Of 500, 100000; Norfolk and Wes-
tern (Va.,) about 100000, the
Erlanger about$l0,000,0 600; Richmond
and Danville, (Va,) $ls,000,000, the
Louisville, about Sc, coo, 600, the Bal
timore and Ohio, $1,000 in a new
southern road, while your enterpris-
ing paper recently contained an arti-
Gle exhibiting the large amounts be.
ing expended in the extension Of the
Chesapeake and Ohio to Newport
News, thus opening up the most di-
rect route for shipment to Europe 49,
These large sums are being invested
in the construction of main lines as a
general thing, from which numerous
branches will speedily be extended in
every direction.
Indeed, there is such a boom in
southern railroad stocks that fortunes
are rapidly made by judicious in
yestments. in recent article in the
New York Herald it is stated that in
Atlanta, Ga, zone gentleman cleared
100000 on the rise in East Tennes-
see and Virginia stocks, another
cleared $4,000, and still another
$250,000. In Augusta and other
Georgia cities millions were cleared
in the rise of Georgia railroad stocks
from SO to 1856; of Central from 90to
l65; Memphis and Charleston from 40
to 90, etc. " The enterprising gentlemen
whocontrol the roads are offering such
in ducementsas will make it to the in
terest of settlers to come South, where
climate, health, easily improved lands
now rapidly increasing in prices
all conduce to afford fine field for
permanent investment or speculation.
Cotton factories are springing up in
all directions, and having the advan-
tages of close proximity to the raw
material, which can be purchased from
the producers direct, thus saving
transportation, commissions, storage,
etc with ample water power and cheap
labor no factories in the world can
successfully compete with them. The
large amount OF northern capital now
invested in the construction of va
rious manufactures all over the South
show that these advantages are be-
ginning to be appreciated. The min
eral resources are also receiving Sc
rious attention, and mines are being
explored and millions expended devel-
oping these almost inexhaustible re-
sources, as the most casual inspection
of our northern mining journal will
prove.

State Superintendent Newell, Of
Maryland, in the course Of an address
on the revision Of the public school
system, declared that he would give
to spelling only one-quarter Of the
time usually devoted to it, and would
discard English grammar altogether.
Grammar, logic and rhetoric he would
remand to the high school or the col
lege, and instead of grammar would
would give practice in speaking and
writing English. II would cut off at
least one-third Of the arithmetic, " said
Mr.. Newell. 1.-The whole section on vul-
gar fractions should be expunged with
the exception of such as ordinary life
may require. Our decimal system is
amply sufficient for the common school.
History and geography would abol-
ish in name, but not in reality. l
would make them part of the daily
readings and conversation between
teacher and pupil"

AS the Registers Of voters will open
their Offices on Monday, September
5th, it is the duty Of every qualified
citizen to register, if he has not done
so, or get a transfer, if needed, in or
der that he may be enabled to parti-
cipate in the election in November
next. No voter has right to decline
to vote and then complain ifhe deems
the right kind ofmen are not elected to
office, and public affairs do not goright
It is the duty Of every man to partici-
pate in the government ofhis Country,
State, County, City or Town, and be
held responsible as far as he is con
cerned. Then he has just right to
complain, and to keep on complaining
until matters are rjghted by the peo-
pie.

The passage of the Land bill is the
most important event in Great Britain
Considerable feeling was aroused by
what is called Mr.. Gladstones com
promise with the House Of Lords, by
which the efficiency Of the bill will be
much impaired. Undoubtedly he has
lost much in the eyes of the Liberal
party by yielding to the. changes pro
posed, when had he remained firm the
House would not have dared do 9TH
erwise than to approve it as it stood.
The Lords are not popular enough
with the people to risk anything so
directly against their will as that, and
it is strange that Mr. Gladstone did
not see it. The result is that neither
Liberals, Conservatives, nor Ireland
are satisfied, and it is feared that agi-
tation will recommence among the
Irish tenantry.

Northern capitalists are also FORM
ing companies for the purpose Of loan
ing farmers money at seven per cent.
interest. One gentleman has So, 600
600 so invested. The want Of capital
and the incubus Of carpet-bag legis-
lation having heretofore greatly re-
tarded the prosperity of the South,
but with these removed she enters upon
a career unexampled in the history Of
thiscountry.
Northern men are daily visiting this
section in search Of homes, finding, as
they do, from the experiences Of their
neighbors who have been here, that
they are cordially received by all
classes of the people. Lands at present
are cheap and every where they are
poor from heefectof iniudicious farm
ing, they recuperate with wonderful
rapidity.
Your correspondent recently drove
over farm near this city which was
purchased year or two ago for $l3
per acre, which now has about one
hundred acres in peanuts, which will
produce eighty bushels per acre, worth
here now Sl.l0 per bnshel besides corn
which will make fifty bushels per acre,
and other crops in proportion. One
hundred bushels per acre in not an~un-
usual crop Of peanuts, which shows
that money can be made by farming
here. The people do not take so much
interest in politics as formerly; are
more liberal in political opinions, and
are developing degree Of business
enterprise that augurs well for the
future The sympathy for the wound
ed President is universal, but this is
not at all surprising to any one familiar
with the characteristics Of the people.
Ii has frequently been asserted by
prominent Southern men that foreign
invasion would az once and forever disa-
buse the Northern mind Of the delusion
that there exists anywhere South any
degree Of hostility towards the General
Government II is to be hoped that
similar effect may be produced by the
conduct Of the Southern people in res
pect to the great national calamity
through which the country IL now
passing.

The success Of the American postal
card system exceeds the most extrava-
gent expectations In the first year
they came into use there were 81 ,O70,-
600 mailed. They increased gradual
ly, until the year ending June 30,
1880, 269,754, 900 were used. In the
year that ended June 80 1881, 3o8,-
995, 900 were consumed. This shows
rapid growth. Strange TO say, many
love-letters are written on them, the
ladies imagining that nobody reads
them. Railway travellers use them
freely; business notices are sent on
them, printed advertisements, etc, all
at increasing rates. Next year may
witness half billion Of them used.
