ingenious instrument brought to public notice
during the Partisan Electrical Congress, patrons
OF the drama will henccfOrth be able TO see as

with a dininutive white glass plate, which may
be framed and set in the panel Of a private draw

visible upon the surface Of the glass plate. Sup

Manu- ct al. vs. Campbell ct al. This was Il
suit to obtain the cancellation of IA deed made by
one Mama in favor of Kamaka. Messrs. Hartwel,
Whiting, and Kaulukou, for the compliments I;
Messrs. Preston and Cecil Brown for the respon-
dents. 1t was c~ontended, on behalf compliments,
that when he signed the deed Mama was, through
the effects of illness, not in the possession of his
faculties, and that undue influence had been
used to persuade him to execute it. Lengthy
evidence was taken. His Honor gave judgement
as follows -
u am of opinion that the proofs establish
that hamaka was present when the deed of
Mama to him was signed also that the proofs
do not show that undue influence was used over
Mama, or that he was imbecile or insane when
he executed the deed. The witnesses speak of
his paroXysms of pain, and that his mind was
weak during these attacks, but was strong when
he became better. There is no evidence that he
executed the deed when in one of these attacks !;
in fact, he rode to the acknowledging officer, and
rode again to Mr.. Bonds to be married some ten
days after. But the testimony of Naiapaakai,
who wrote the deed, and took the acknowledge
ment, discloses that Maina's intention was to
make a deed of his land TO all of his nieces and
nephews. Their Joint occupation and cultiva-
ton of the land accords with this view, and
Kamaka's assent to it and his acquiescence in
the arbitration of the difficulty between Manu-
and Zebedaio confirms this view. l decree that
the heirs of Kamaka hold this land for the
benefit of themselves and the other nieces and
nephews of Mama, and their heirs by right of
representation. Decree accordingly. Each party

On Wednesday last HIS Honor Judge M'CULLY
gave the following decision in tie case -

the Court. and exhibIts-frst, an instrument
executed November 22nd, 1879, by the defendant.

wealth or fame in this country ever held by
two generations in succession in the same
family. Nineteen out of twenty of the
merchant princes of our cities and of the
great capitalists and railroad magnates of
the day came poor boys from the rural dis
tricts. Honors and fame are more slippery
and hard to hold in the same family, even
than wealth. In the earlier days of the
Republic notably, and very often in later
times, when man succeeded in becoming
Governor of his State or Senator in the
National Congress, his posterity were rele-
gated to perpetual obscurity. The names
of Washington, Jefferson, Madison, Monroe,
Taylor. Polk, Pierce, Buchanan, Fillmore,
Ruttledge, Middleton, Hancock, Moultrie,
Haynes, Marion, Marshall, Wythe, Calhoun,
Clay, Webster and Benton do not belong to
any of the prominent statesmen ofthe pres
ent. The original alone stand on the rolls
of honor and fame; their posterity, if they
had any, have been and still are in the
ranks of obscurity."

THE Tribune in its last issue talks of
the stalwart Republican Committee of
New York thusly: "The Republican State
Committee formally closed the campaign
on Saturday by issuing terse but touch
ing little valedictory in which they cordial
ly invited gentlemen who had not already
made voluntary contributions in behalf
of the Saratoga ticket to walk up to the
captains office and discharge that patriotic
and exhilarating duty. The fact that Mr..
Oeveland's majority is not far from 2OO,-
900 warrants the impression that several
voluntary contributions, upon which the
committee had been fondly counting, have
not been made-or at least had not been
when the valedictory was penned- 1t is
earnestly to be hoped that all voluntary
contributors who intend voluntarily to
contribute voluntary contributions will
not be backward in coming forward. A
first-class funeral in which 100000 men
figure is necessarily expensive. If it was
supposed that the voluntary contributions
would be devoted to purchasing sackcloth
and ashes and stools of repentance and
some such trustworthy disinfectant as
chloride of lime for the use of the gentle
men who originated the methods that pre-
vailed in nominating the ticket that was
beaten by such colossal majority, the
committe would doubtless receive a good
many dollars which as it is they will beg
for in vain"

Comfort for Country Boys.

The Hon. N w. Goodhue, of Akron, at
pioneer meeting, made the following
point in his address, which should be graf
flying TO the farmer and his too frequently
dissatisfied sons, who are apt to disparage
the dignity of their calling, and fail to see
any of the advantages they have over town
boys:
"Our rural districts constitute the real
bulwark and substratum of the State and
Nation. The tillers of the soil are the
bones and sinews of our country. They
give to it its lawmakers, law-givers, and
rulers, not always directly, but oftener in
directly through their children. Of the
twenty-one men who have exercised the
functions of President of the United States,
but two only were the sons Of professional
fathers. John Quincy Adams was the son
of lawyer, and the father of Chester A.
Arthur was a poor Baptist minister. Not
a single one of them all was born in a city.
The fathers of Washington, the elder
Adams, jefferson, Madison, Monroe, Van
Buren,, Harrison, Tyler, Polk, Taylor, Fill
more, Pierce, Buchanan, Lincoln and Gar
field were all agriculturists, some of them
large land-holders, and some of them far
mers in very small and humble way. The
father of jackson was a poor day-laborer.
Johnson's father was poor mechanic in
the lower walks of life. The father of Pres
ident Hayes was an Ohio blacksmith, and
last, but not least, the father of Grant, the
greatest captain of the world, as well as
our honored ex-P President, was Buckeye
tanner.
aThere is something in the nature of con-
slant contact with the soil that prepares its
tillers to transmit that strength of mind
and body, that persistent energy and strong
will to their progeny that enables them to
overcome obstacles, conquer prejudice, ac-
quire wealth and fame and climb up the
ladder leading to greatness much more
easily than those born in the cities, ofwhat
the world calls gentlemen. Scarcely is

Now that Wellington has prospect of
telephonic connection with a system that
embraces all Northern Ohio, the following
from the Mansfield Herald giving an &C
count of the opening of a line between that
city and Ashland, win be an item of in
terest to our readers. "Telephonic COM
munication was established by the Mid
land Telephone Company with the town
of Ashland, on Saturday last, and the first
message between that point and Mansfield
passed over the wire that same evening.
The line, which runs through Petersburgh, b,
is about II miles in length, but notwith-
standing the distance, messages sent from
Ashland were heard with the same dis
tinctness as If the transmitter was but q
block away. Hsyesville and Ashland hay-
ing been previously placed in telephone
connection, messages were transmitted to
snd received from the former. place with
the same satisfactory results These points
are 81 miles apart. When questioned by
q Herald reporter concerning the immedi-
ate extension of the line to Akron, Mana
ger Sailor could give no positive informa-
fion, but was of the opinion that nothing
further would be done in that direction
before next spring. He said, however,
that line would possibly be erected at an
early day between Mansfield and Bellville.
On the following Monday night the
American Band celebrated the completion
of the new line of communication by as
sembling at the St. James Hotel and sere-
nading the people of Ashland. The nov
elty Of the affair attracted TO that hotel
many citizens, and no doubt the anticipa-
ted serenade created great excitement
among the people at the other end Of the
line. Messages received here during the
entertainment from Ashland stated that
The music could not only be heard dis

enchantment to the tones produced.

THE Norwalk News, an infant daily
which has started to grow up with the
county seat of Huron County, has a motto
as broad as the universe, as independent as
the American eagle, and as immature as
veal. Here it is:
In public affairs, In politics. in religion, In all
things for what we think right regardless of opin-
ion, Of party, Of creed; ever unawed by influence,
unbribed BY power"
That is the very best kind of sentiment
the sort of principle to have; but itreminds
Us Of the actual speech of q young bride
who, within half an hour after her mar
riage, in an oufburst of confidence said to
one of the wedding guests, 1t is a conso-
lation to know that I have good, kind
husband, anyway" We hope the boys will
show all the seedy old scriblersin the State
what vigor and enthusiasm and fresh young
genius can do every day in the week. and
every week in the year; that they will
speedily become millionaires, and have an
experience as much better than the usual
newspaper venture as their motto is exalted
above the average practice.

In the September number of the Gen.
tury an article on the 'Courtesies of
Travel" spoke of the gentlemanly rail-
road conductor as an almost extinct spe-
cies, and other varieties of railway en-
ployees as rule not engaging in their
manners. In the Railroader for Novem-
Der, one of that much abused class re-
plies to the charge in this very reasona-
BILE and convincing defense:
II this is true of Conductors and railroad
employees, probably 1t is mainly due to asso-
citation, for it is well known fact, that peo-
pie when travelling, are less the gentleman
or lady than at other times, and IL there Is
anything bearish or selfish in q persons dis
position 1t is pretty apt to show itself on 9
railroad train. They are always ready to find
fault, and as the Conductor is considered
their common enemy, he generally gets full
benefit. The Conductors duties are little un-
derstood by the public. He is expected to
be able to answer all kinds Of questions, do
all kinds of errands, take care Of the lady
with the half dozen babies; the old lady with
unnumbered parcels and bandboxes; the lit
tie boy who is going all alone to see his
grandma; the young miss on her first visit to
her city cousins; the lame, halt and blind all
claim his personal attention; and he must
keep the drunken fellow from annoying any
one, and the sharper from swindling the ver-
dant youth, and he must do many more
things of this kind. he must be sure to keep
in his mind his rights to the roads, orders,
time, &C., on which depend many lives and
thousands of dollars in property; for In his
business q mistake once made can not be
rectifed. He is deprived Of regular sleep and
meals, yet through all this, he is expected
to be always smiling and courteous, neglect
his business to answer silly questions or else
1t will be said, as In the article quoted, he is
not gentleman, but a savage. While we ad-
NIT there Is often room for improvement in
the manners of railroad employees, we do
not think 1t can be promoted by any set code
of rules. But let the company's officers and
the travelling public show. w.employees the eour-
tesy which they would receive In other call
ings, and we are sure 1t would be beneficial
10 all l'concerned.

THAT proposition to Mr.. Gilbert, of New
London from Wellington people to estab-
lish Touring mill we fear is little mix
ed We have very good mill here now
and the business of this place will not GER
tainly warrant the establishing of another
and if our interests demand new roller
process our present mill is the place to put
it and our present proprietor is the man to
take 1t in hand. We have taken some
pains TO inquire and cannot find any one
who knows of any such proposition being
made to Mr.. Gilbert and we suspect some
one for some purpose, perhaps for his own
advantage, has been selling the editor of
the Record.
