Raptitty of the Blood Currents.

The rate Of the blood current gener-
ally increases with the activity of the
animal, being most rapid in birds. In
insects, however, it is comparatively
slow, but this is because the air is
taken to the blood-thes whole body
being bathed in air, so that the blood
has no need to hasten to special or
gan. However, activity nearl y doub-
les the rate of pulsation in bee. The
motion in the arteries is several times
faster than in the veins, but diminish
es as the distance from the heart in
'creases. In the carotid of the horse.
the blood moves twelve and one-half
inches per second, in that of man six
teen; in the capillaries of man one
to two inches per minute in those of
. frog one inch.

In the County Jail.

Sage, arrested on charge of murder

ed to have committed suicide, at Old
Middleton, week before last, were
held in $4,000 bail, each, by Judge A.

were brought here d lodged in jail
to await the grand jury. Richard
Gaugh, for furnishing one of the
prisoners a pistol, was also held in
$4,000 bail, and is also in Jail. The
theory of the prosecution is that Wa

such were the facts Mr.. Catalan be

A special from Portsmouth, New

A special from Portsmouth, New
Hamshire says: Early this morning
Colonel Kent obtained an interview
with Lieutenant Greedy, who admitted
he had Henry shot ON military exc
cution on 9th of June. AS early as
March it was suspected that Henry
had been stealing limited quantity
OF food which was apportioned out
to survivors, and this fact being final
" ascertained, Lieutenant Greedy had
hard work thereafter to protect the
mans life. 1t became necessary, IN
order to keep UP discipline, to inform
Henry that he would be shot if the
practice was continued, and the same
fate would be melted out to any other
member OF the party detected III a
like crime. If Henry had been per-
mitted to continue his stealing unmo-
Tested, the balance of the party would
surely have starved to death, and
Henry alone survived. After, and
in spite Of these warnings, Henry was
again detected stealing provision,
among the food taken being two
pounds of bacon, and eating SO much
it made him sick. Search was then
instituted, when it was found that
Henry had among other articles stolen
and secreted, pair of sealskin boots
which belonged to hunter in the
party, Lieutenant Greedy was there
fore forced, in order to maintain mill
tary discipline and protect the lives
of his men, to issue written order
that Henry be shot, which order was
carried out June 9th,

silver State.

The Supreme Court of Colorado
has lust re- aflirmed it's former decis-
ion that actual possession is prima facia
evidence If title, and that entering
upon premises in the actual possession
of another for the purpose OF perform
ing the acts necessary to constitute
location and possession, amounts to
a trespass, and cannot form the basis
for the acquisition of title. Whether
the location of the party in possession
be valid or not, their possession is suf-
fcient to defeat recovery by the
entering to make II new location. In
this dicision, the principle of "posses-
sion being nine points in the law" is
maintained, and miners should
bear this in mind when desiring to
make relocations.
The same court also decided that
mine owners are not responsible for
recorders mistakes. A prior location
of mining claim is not invahdatod
by mistake of recorder in recor-
ding such location by a name some
what different from that stated in the
certificate of location.

CIiYe am Laru!S

A few weeks ago Fl. W. Coultrap
and G. O. Dunlap took charge Of the
Vinton Record. They are both men
Of ability, and during theis brief ex-
perierce the Reco,'d was much inl-
proved. But the last number Of tia
paper received at this Office contains
tie farewell of the new 1itor:. We
quote:
"When we to hold cf
it, We supposed there woula be little
to engage our attention outside of
preparing editorials and collecting to-
esther matter For its columns, Tut We
soon discovered that It was necessary
for as to look after the financial ana
mechaDi Il departments as well. and
that tie writing OF editccials and pre-
pairing matter for the paper we're by
fer the least part Of our work"
Our young friends may console them
selves with the thought that they are
not the first to graduate in that same,
school, after brief and brilliant ex-
perience. A great many young men
get the idea that running newspa-
per is light and pleasant experience
"a mere condescending to permit an
anxious world to I2ask IN the radiance
Of ones brilliant intellect. In short,
that there is nothing to do but sit In
an easy-chair and write. Our young
friends state the case truly. The
writing IS " no means the hardest
part Of the work, yet 1t not iufre
quently happens that tho ,ccompiish-
ment of this work necessitates the
burnir g Of the midnight oil"
The experience OF many q young
journalist is snmething like that OF
the young man who married very
high-tempered wife. a friend met
him one morning with an eye black
ened from the stroke Of , rolling-pln
and huge handful Of hair missing
from the top Of his head, and inquir-
ed why what is the matter with
you?" The young husband took his
friend to one side and nervously wh!s-
pered in his ear; Look here. old boy,
I was never married before, and |
didn't know their wayr'
We are very sorry to lose our two
young Macarthur friends from the
editorial ranks, and the Republican
party of Vinton can i'll afford to loose
them.

One night in June 1880, William

One night in June 1880, William
McHugL stabbed his wife with
butcher knife, in Sixth Street Mar
kat Space, in Cincinnati, ana killed
her. Ea was indicted for murder in
the f-st degree, tried. and convicted.
Cf course his counsel moyel for -
reyy trial, ION technicalittas kEown 10
led attorneys, but not understood
ty ignorant citizens who base their
conclusions upon reason an3 common
sense. A new trial was granted, and
the brute was promptly convicted for
a second time. Again the learned at
torneys moved for q new trial, which
was granted.
Mesa1;me, during the progress Of
the third trial, William Kirk, a livery
stabls keeper was murdered by two
boys, Palmer and Berner, for his
money, and his body hauled over a
goodly portion Of the city, in their
efforts to dispose Of it. Thus while
the whole power OF the courts SEEM
ed to be enlisted or the side Of one Of
the most brutal oG murderers, rather
than IN an attempt to enforce the law,
the WORK Of murder was still going on.
On last Wednesday the jury return
ed 3 verdict Of guilty as charged in
the Indictment" in the McHugh case
making the third time that jury
have returned a verdict of gull =
And we are assured that there was
strong talk Of McHugh's attorneys
making a motion for new trial. "
This is beautiful picture Of the ef-
fcacy Of the law, IN suppressing
crime. A man convicted. at the ex-
pense Of many hundreds of dollars,
then the same thing repeated for tLe
third time. Of course the common
people, who know nothing of the
law, and who base their humble judg-
ment upon justice and common sense,
canrot be expected to understand ne
beauty and harmony Of the picture

"Then the Scott Law will have been
wiped out, McConnelsville ordinance
and all, and we shall once mo- have
free trade in whisky, thanks to the
whisky dealers and Prohibitionists,
firm and inseparable friends and CO.
workers in a common cause.
The above evaporation is from the
Columbus correspondent Of Cincin-
natl daily. We are not wasting any
time, just now, in attacking the Scott
Law, but it is an indisputable fact that
drunkenness has increased, under its
workings, at fearful rate. As to the
McConnelsville ordinance feature OF
it, the first Judge in this part OF the
State who got a chance at it, decided
that it amounted to nothing. There
never was any need for the Scott Law.
There agas need of officers who would
rigidly enforce the laws thai we had.

How much better was the conduct
Of the slaves of the Liquor interest in
Ohio, at the last election, than the
conduct Of the tissue ballot scoun-
drels of South Carolina in former
elections. There is scarcely a shadow
of doubt that the Second Amendment
was triumphantly carried, but the
fellows in charge of the ballot boxes
in many places deliberately refused to
make returns Of the votes on that
question. All this is but another
proof that Liquor breeds dishonesty.
