The board met yesterday at 9 o'clock
pursuant to the adjournment Of the
day previous. After the reading of
the minutes Judge Strevell presented
claim Of Hubbard d Thompson for
rebate Of penalty paid on the taxes Of
last year. The circumstances were
that Mr.. ]. J. Thompson, in Novem-
Der last, before any delinquent penalty
had attached, called at the treasurer's
office and rendered payment of the
taxes, but owing to certain Injunction
proceedings then pending in a case of
the Northern Pacific railroad, the tax
list had not been completed, and the
treasurer could not receive the money.
Mr. Thompson then inquired what
was the last day Of grace and was
enormously informed December 81.
Acting on this information he depart
ed on trip east and south, and while
absent, early in December, learned
that the date on which taxes became
delinquent was December LIST. 1t
being then too late to save the penalty
lie let the matter rest until his return,
and when the taxes were paid he had
to pay delinquent penalty Of Sl67. AZ.
The matter was taken under consider
alton by the board and II appearing
that II was no fault of Mr.. Thompson
that the taxes were not paid before
they became delinquent, 1t was decid-
ed TO allow the rebate. This being
disposed Of a road petition in relation
10 a road to be laid out on the line ol
section "a, township s, range AZ, was
taken up but not acted upon as the
board desired time to acquaint them
selves with the proposed location OF
the road by a personal inspection.
The bids Of the YELLOWSTONE JOUR-
NAL and the Stockgrowers Journal for
the county printing were then taken
up and the lmerits Of each proposal
closely investigated, and ii appearing
to the satisfaction OF the
board that the proposal of
the YELLOWSTONE JOURNAL was
the lowest, the contract for the county
printing for the year ending May 81,
1886, was awarded to Knight 4 Cor.
don, publishers. The hour Of noon
having arrived the board adjourned.
The afternoon session was devoted
principally to the drawing of grand

Registration LAWS.

In Ohio there had never been regis
tration law until the last Legislature
passed one; and this law was made to
apply to only two places--Cincinnati
and Cleveland. 1t amused us to read
in the Cincinnati papers during the re-
cent campaign in Ohio paragraphs indi-
eating that the people there were wholly
in the dark as to the proper proceedings
to be had under registration law. For
instance, it was charged that party
workers went to the houses Of men be-
longing not to their party but to the
other and pretended to register their
names, thus preventing them from
registering according to law and causing
them to lose their votes. This was
only one trick out Of many.
But now it turns out that the regis
tration law is unconstitutional. The
Supreme Court Of Ohio has pronounced
il SO. The law provided that the regis
trars should be at the polling-places for
six days to receive names OF electors
for registration, FIVE Of the days allot-
ted for this work to be consecutive.
After an interval Of a week the books
were to be again opened for one day
for the purpose Of receiving names OF
voters unable to register earlier and re-
yising the lists. The Supreme Court
decides that the General Assembly has
power to enact that voters must regis
ter before voting, but such an enact
ment must be reasonable, impartial
and calculated to facilitate, not to i'm
pede, the right Of suffrage. Applying
this principle, the court finds that tn
Law in question does restrict the right
Of voters, and is, therefore, unconsti
tutional.

Correspondence OF the Richmond Dispatch
NORFOLK, December 2, 1885.
The peanut trade in Norfolk is dull
Just now. The factories are all buying
stock and selling very little. This time
last year the factories were running day
and night to supply their orders, while
now two or three hours day running
is ample for the business offering. This
state of things also materially reduces
the amount of labor employed, making
it bad for the hands, who are mostly
colored people. The farmers, as yet,
have not gathered more than two thirds
Of the crop Of nuts.
The storm yesterday Frustrated the
signal service telegraph line through
Princess Anne county, and nothing can
be heard as yet from an unknown vessel
ashore at CaAee's Inlet on Currituck
Beach. The telegraph line to the Nor
folk water-works was also blown down.
The steamers detained by the storm
last night all left this morning. The
Baltimore steamer came in all right.
The shipwrecked crew ofthe schooner
Martha Walsh, wrecked off Chinco-
league, have been sent to Baltimore.
The total amount Of rainfall in this
section during the month Of November
was one inch above the average.

TO RECOVER A BODY.
A Novel Action Against the Projectors Of a
ColIiery.

A Novel Action Against the Proprietors OF
ColIiery.
A Scranton PENN special says:
David Potts, a Carbon-county miner,
who is now in this section of the State
endeavoring to obtain the sympathy
and financial support Of the working
men Of the Lackawanna region, has
commenced novel lawsuit against
the proprietors of Tresckow colliery,
near Hazleton, the issue Of which will
be awaited with interest throughout
the anthracite coal fields Of .Pennsylva-
MIA. Potts is the sen-in-law Of Evan
Owens, a miner, who was drowned in the
Tresckow colliery on August 18th last,
and his suit against the colliery pro-
prietors is for the purpose Of compelling
them to recover the body of his father
in-law, which is still in the mine. When
the fatal accident occurred Evan Owens
and two other men were driving a
counter gangway in vein OF which the
pitch was nearly forty-five degrees.
This gangway passed over an old work
ing that had been abandoned for some
years and was half full OF water, and
during the progress of the work the
props in the lower breast collapsed and
the three men were plunged headlong
into the water. a driyer-boy who wit
messed the accident brought to the rescue
several miners, who, after heroic
strul gle made at the peril Of their OWE
lives, rescued all except Evan Owens,
who was caught and held under one of
the props and persisted. The son-in-
law Of the deceased miner endeavored
to secure the cooperation OF the mine
owners for the recovery Of the body,
and succeeded in getting one pump at
work on the 18th, but after lowering
the water a foot or so it was ordered
stopped. Mr.. Potts told reporter to-
day that five days after the accident the
mine superintendent promised to get the
body out, but the very next day he set
two Hungarians at work on a new breast
IN the mlue, anu liie utO'tS nun 'nSii
excavations was thrown down into the
pit where the body of the dead miner
lay. Mr.. Potts, who is very earnest in
this matter, has draft of the workings
and a plan by which he says the body
of the buried miner can be reached.
He is endeavoring to secure the CO.
operation of his Acknowledgment
throughout the State. Since the year
1869 about eight bodies have been left
in the colleries Of the Hazleton region,
and should Mr.. Potts succeed in his
suit against the owners Of the Tresckow
colliery it would undoubtedly lead to
other lawsuits on the part Of the friends
of those who have been lost in the
mines.

Consistent at Least.

The New York Tribune continues to
urge the election of LOGAN to be Presi-
dent of the Senate. 1t sees, it says,
" nothing against JOHNS election to
that Office in the fact that the people
expressly voted not to have him there. "
1t must be said that the Tribune is at
least consistent in its unrepublicaniSm.
1t has never recognized that the people
had any rights that the Republican
party is bound to respect. 1t has
for years sedulously taught the doc
,rine that the malignants have pro-
scriptive right to administer the Gov
eminent, the will Of the people
to the contrary Notwithstanding.
IL claimed to the last that Mr..
CLEVELAND was not entitled to
the electoral vote Of New York. Oh
course the Tribune sees no reason why
LOGAN should not be foisted into
position the American people have de-
clared he is not fit to occupy. What
else than impudence are the wishes o
the American people when they come
into conflict with the notions of thu
mighty genius Of the Tridune's tai
tower.

Not a Defect.
A correspondent Of the New York

A correspondent Of the New York
Herald writes to that paper as follows t;
"Suppose. under the bill vesting the
presidential succession in the Cabinet
the Secretary Of State happens TO be .
soreign-born citizen, is there any provi-
sion that the Cabinet officer next In line
Of succession shall act IS President IN
case Of necessity"
And the Herald, in its usual blundar-
ing manner. writes in q patronizIng
tone an article which styles this "a de-
feet - in Mr.. HoAR's bill. Hear the
Herald:
"This point is not expressly covered
by the BILL"
But 1t is expressly covered. The
Herald proceeds:
"The only word in this provision
that can have any application to the
case supposed by our correspondent Is
inability But it may be argued
with good deal Of force that this does
not apply, and was not intended to ap-
ply, to incapacity by reason OF foreign
birth. The same word is used in the
Constitution, and as used there it means
mental or physical,incapscity, and not
constitutional disqualification or NELL
gibility."
And thus the Herald goes on to the
end Of its chapter.
Now, here is the language OF the bill
on the point under discussion. Alter
naming the order in which the Cabinet
officers shall be called upon to act as
President of the United States, the bill
provides as follows:
"Such officer being eligible to the
Office of President under the Constitu-
ton, and not under articles Of impeach-
ment by the House of Representatives
of the United States at the time the
powers and duties Of the office shall de-
yolve upon him."
The bill as it stands is almost per-
feet.

Modern Cnlvalry.

The Fulton NO. Telegraph makes
the following notice Of DR.. Hoge's lee
ture delivered in that place in behalf of
the Young Mems Christian Associa-
ton:
The largest audience we have ever
seen at lecture in Fulton assembled to
hear the Rev. NJ. ID. Hoge, ID. d., on
" Burke's Pathetic Lament or, Modern
Chivalry." The subject was out the
beaten track, and by its novelty and
freshness of thought enlisted the undi.
vided attention of those present. The
speaker traced the history Of the
ancient institution Of chivalry, delin-
Gated its many marked characteristics,
and portrayed its influence upon the
world. He cited Burke's Lament over
its loss, but thought and showed that
the great orator and statesman's appre-
tensions were the baseless fabric Of
vision. He showed that the spirit Of
chivalry was not lost in modern So
ciety, but existed in a grander and more
elevated and ennobling form. He de-
clared that Chevalisr Bayard, "with-
out fear and without reproach," was
not an equal in chivalric virtues
to that modern hero Stonewall
Jackson, whose immortal fame filled
two hemispheres. He asserted that
modern chivalry consisted not in re-
claiming the beautiful maiden in dis
tress, in the glitter and glamour Of the
tourney, in the clash and clang of bat
tie, but in the helpful, in the relief aud
elevation Of humanity, in the practice
and incubation Of those living principles
that raise humanity to a higher
scale. The schoolmaster, the in
yentor, and the man that stands
| at his post of duty until burned
to cinder, and sacrifices his own life
for the safety Of others, is hero Of a
grander type than the most chivalrous
knight that ever entered the lists of q
tournament. The lecture, as a whole
was full of eloquent thought, beauty o.
rhetoric, sound principle, living and
practicable illustrations. 1t abounded
in the a. fairness Of good things" tha
stirred the enthusiasm and satisfied tn
intelligence Of his auditors.
