JURY COMMISSIONER.—It is not gen
erally known, but is nevertheless the
fact that the law establishing the
office of Jury Commissioner provides
that no incumbent shall be elected for
two terms in succession.
Wi1..3V0 are requested by the Chair
man of the County. Committee to an
nounce that a Republican Mass Meet
ing will be held in this place on Wed
nesday evening, Sept. 28, and that em
inent speaker§ will be present. Cyrus
Elder, Esq., will speak at the Court
House . on Saturday evening next.
rThe Legislature of 1871, to be
chosen this Fall, will bo the most im
portant one for many years. It has
the choice . of United States Senator
for six years, from,llarch 4, 1872, in l i
place of Senator Citmeron. It will be
its duty to re-apportion the State in
to Congressional districts, under the
census of 1870. It will also bo called
upon to re-apportion the State into
Senatorial and Reprgsentative dis
tricts. It will also be required to act
upon the'report of the Commissioners
to revise the civil cede of the State.—
Last and equally important, it will
have to decide upon the question. of
Constitutional Reform, and is expec
ted to ,a,ii.l:l3orizo the calling of a State
Convention for that purpose It is to
be hoped that Republicans in Republr
can districts, will see the necessity of
straining every nerve to'seCure a ma
jority in ; each Ups°, ec as to be pre
pared for tho work in band.
MORE• REP ÜBLIt'A N VICTORIES.—Tho
campaign of 1870 opens gloriously,
and tho great hue and cry of defeat,
which the Democrats have raised and
which some timid Republicans wore
too apt to believe, is being dispelled.by
the news from:Vermont so steady and
true, and Maine. so gallant'andsound.
Tho'news froni 'Vermont, whiehyo
ted ()RUM Art3t Tuesday . of September,
is that the . Republicans elected the
Governor by 22,000 majority, carried
all the , inembers•ofCongress, and both
Houses.. of the' . Legislature by over
whelming majorities.
The news from Maine, which voted
on Monday, is not yet complete, but
Sidney Peiham, the Ropublican.candi
date for:Governor, hag an increased
majority of 1000 in the same towns for
Chamberlain last year. The whole .
five Congressmen aro elected by hand
some majorities, and the Legislature
is largely Republican in both branches.
Wyoming,. Colorado and Wilming
ton,have all done nobly.-
THE WAR.
There have been no great battles
sib`ce our list issue. Tho PrusSian
armies are closing in on Paris, and
the city at last accounts, is completely
environed. Gen. Trochu is reported
to be quite confident that the city is
now able - to resist attack and prepar
ed to withstand a seige., It is given
out that the Prussians will not bom
bard or • attempt to storm the town,
but starve it into conditional surren
der.. According to the progranime,
the'Prussians'have seven army corps
now before'Paris:
Tho French fortresses at Strasburg,
and Metz had not capitulated at last
accounts, but it is not thought they
can hold out much longer. Tons, and

Tho Prospects.
A Democratic ndirspaper has credit
by the following item in reference to
That that party expects in the com
ng political campaign:
"With the Pennsylvania LegislattA
Democratic, an apportionment would be
secured that would,Make our, State Demo
cratic as long as our party deserved sue.
cess. This, Democrats, is what we fight
for."
And this is the clearest definition of
the effect of the campaign that can
he given. The Democrats will fight
for it, as they know upon their suc
cess depends the restoration of their
chances for a number of years to come•
What is to prevent them, if successful
at the next election, from so appor
tioning the districts that the Republi
can vote would be a mere negation ?
Nothing- whatever. If they get the
power in the Legislature, the chances
are theirs to - make the State Demo
cratic, as districts which aro now
closely contested would be so cut up
that the Democratic ticket would al
ways be successful. Republicans
should bear this in mind during the
campaign. We must not think there
is nothing worth.fighting for this year,
for thero is. The apportionment of
the State will be in the hands of the
next Senate and House, and the party
in the majority will make the appor-
tionment. If Republicans do not want,
the State 'lost to them in the future,
they must work for the success of their
Legislative candidates this year.
Wo are grieved to hear of the
death of .110 n. JONATHAN Mc Wrridams,
a native of this county, but latterly a
resident of MoVeytown. Ho was at
ono time Associate Judge: of this coun
ty. lje had lived his threescore and
ten, and they were years of industry
and usefulness, to himself, his Maker,
and his follow-man. Few men took
as active a part in the temperance
movement, which originated in this
country in his younger days, and
with which he at once became connec
ted, and fought manfully against groat
opposition, and when none were found
to aid him. Ho saw the ruin it en
tailed upon his fellow-men, and actua
ted by the purest motives of philan
throphy ho raised his voice and wield
ed his pen against the monster. • Ho
rejoiced, however, that ho had lived
to see the progress which the vast ar
my of temperance advocates bad
made, as was indicated in his recent
letters in the Globe, over the signature
of "H. C B." He was not only a phi
lanthropist but a patriot. During the
rebellion his voice and pen wore alike
active in diffusing the spirit of patriot
ism, and his appeals were earnest and
soul-inspiring. Ho had many friends,
for ho had befriended many, and they,
with us, will revere the memory of
his acts of kindness and devotion. In
the words of ono whom ho had be.
frionded, wo can say, "we had hoped
he might live many years yet to cheer
the pathway of his many friends, but,
alas; he 'lins gone to ' join the innu
merable caravan that moves to the
pale 'realms of shade:" May he rest
in peace!
A GOOD ,PAPER;— We have before us
a copy of the Philadelphia Trade Jour.
nal, published weekly.by Wm. C. Har
ris & Co., No. 125 South Third Street,
Philadelphia. It is in quarto form,
and contains seven columns to the
page; thiis making it one of the largest
papers in the city. Wo aro gratified
in looking over its pages to find it fat
with advertisements, besides giving a
variety of
_reading matter, together
with a full price list of all the commer
cial and financial commodities in the
market: Tbo latter is a specialty that
should induce our merchants to .sub
scribe, as many a dollar is. saved by
knowing what the market price is. It
has a large .circulation in the Middle,
Southern and Western States, which
makes it valuable as an advertising
medium for business mon everywhere.
Taken all in all, it is a paper well
worth the price _of subscription—s3,oo

WHEN AN OFFICER CAN MAKE AN AR
REST.-A party tried at the recent
court in Montgomery county, for as
saulting:an officer made the point in
his defence that the officer had no war
rant for his arrest, whereupon the
Court defined the rights and duties of
police officers as follows :
An officer, as any private citizen,
has the right and it is his duty to pre
vent a crime with or without a war
ant; and whore a breach of tho peace
ie imminent ho ought to make an ar
rest and follow in pursuit, with or
without a warrant. Whenever the
officer has the offender within his view
at the time of committing the offence
ho has the right to make the arrest
with or without a warrant. Ho has
the power when the offence is
committed in his view, but when
he acts on the information of
others, he must have a proper authori
ty. In this case the officer saw the
affray Or fight, which was stopped by
his. approach. IL: han the right to
ar
rest the offenders. .
IMPORTANT TO VOTERS.—Many per
sons' aie Under th . 6 impiegBion - that
voters who were registered last; year
need not ha registered again ; This, is
a mistake. Yearly registration is, re
quired, and persons who have not yet
been registered this year should have
their names placed on the list at once,
as a failure to attend to this important
matter may result in the loss of a vote
on the part of the, careless. „

$4,500,0014 Premiums!
Competion open to all parts of the Siate !
Tho Association takes pleasure in calling
the attention of the public to the very liberal
premiums offered this year. They equal
those of the State Society, on similar classes.
The design of this liberality -is to produce
friendly competition, and at the same time
remunerate exhibitors and visitors.
Tho premiums on thoroughbred horses and
cattle amount to over $600,00, and all the
ether classes are equally liberal. For the la
dies, some $300,00 worth of silver ware has
boon pm chased, and will be distributed as
premiums for the work of their hands. These
premiums range in value from $l,OO up to
$15,000, and many of the articles are beau
tiful, and the Managers believe they will be
prized much more than tho slime amount
paid in money.
For full particulars, see premium list, pub
lished in pamphlet form, and to be hand of
any of the offlocrs or Managers.
New buildings will be added to those a%
ready on the ground, and everything provi
ded for the convenience of exhibitors and sat
