This repealer was fathered by the Btate Health department and the desire to do away with the towuship board’s health officers was because there were in some parts of the state frequent clashes of authority between the state agents and. the township health cfficers. li ———— Concern'ng Presbyterians, The statement recently printed in The Centre Reporter that the Supreme court of Tennessee has decided that the Cumberland Presbyterian church still exists and is entitled to the property, taken by itself, may mislead. Thuis decision applies only to property held by the local churches in the above state aud not tothe property of the denomipations ss a whole, some of which is situated in the state. The “ug reme courts of four other states: Ilinole, Texas, Georgiaand Kentucky, have given an opposite decision, viz: that the union of the Cumberland church with the Presbyterian church was legally effected and that the property b longs to the Unionists, Many think that if the matter should be appealed to the Federal courts the Tennessee decision would not stand. Steps have been taken for an amiable division of the property between the Unionists and Auti-Unionlsts. The latter are greatly in the mino ity but hitherto seemed unwilling to listen to sny proposition for a compromise Now that they have the comfort of one state court decision in their favor haps they will be more willing to eu- ter into a friendly settlement, and the whole matter brought to a conclusion honorable to all.

His talks abou! the convention are both interesting snd instructive. Every delegate was wae the recipient of a Chinese coin as 8 memento of that great gathering of men. These coins will be carried as pocket pieces. The cash is a round coin, about the size of a silver half dollar, with 8 square opening in the centre. When the small value of the coin is known the reason for the hole in it is easily understood, but why it should be square instead of round is a mystery. It takes eleven of these to equal in value one cent of our money. When the Chinaman goes marketing or shopping he mast take & great many of these coins with Lim if he wishes to make extensive purchases, ro he strings his mor e; and hangs it over his shoul- der. Bowetimes a donkey is used to carry the money when a great amount is needed. Bome of these coins bear a very ancient date, but it is not stamp- ed on in figures. The age can be told by the dynasty whose mark is on the money. ———— Oak Hall, Miss Grace Carper, of Linden Hall, spent last week in town, Edward Page Is numbered among the sick.

"-- New York Mail A Curious Story. The queen of Hanover, wife of King Ernest Augustus of Hanover (better known as the Duke of Cumberland. son of George II11), died at Hanover about 1842 of an illness which baffled the skill of her doctors as to its real cause. During her {liness a clalrvoy- ant was consulted, who wrote certain curious signs and words on the door of her bedroom; but, although these mystic words were repeated over and over again, the queen died. The king of Hanover after his wife's death gave that her bedroom should al- be kept as though the queen would sleep there at night. The bed was turned down, the pillows re shaken, hot water brought and the daintiest slippers laid In readiness for her.—~Home Notes, orders ways Yet They Needed Exercise.
