It is a volume of nearly 600 pages, profusely and very handsomely illustrated, and is pronounced by leading critics to bo ic book on the lato war, covering as it does the events leading up to the conflict, as well as tho report of tho Paris peace com mission. The fact that Mr. Albaugh has taken orders for over sevon hundred cop ies of the work in so remarkably short a time speaks louder than words can for the excolloncy of tho book.

The paper was founded 50 years ao by the late A. P. Whitaker, who was almost continuously.its editor from that time until about two years ago when he passed over to the great majority. The career of tho Spectator, like erery newspaper of t!;at ago, has been somewhat ciieckoiod, though it has enjoyed uioro, perhaps of the pleasures of tho journalistic career than the average. The paper has fallen nto eminmitly capablo hands, aud will never deteriorate so long as Mr. Irwin shapes its destinies.

The decision of tho Supremo Court a few days ago upon a tst caso from Lan caster county, says the Philadelphia Press, means thousands of dollars in crease in the cost to counties of the Slate, and at the same time greater revenues for tho constabulary. Constable Price, of Lancaster county, claimed 50 cents in fees for each witness subpoenaed and ten cents for every mile he traveled. The Commissioners refused to pay the bill, and in a suit to recover Judge Livingston or the lower court de cided that the constable was entitled to but 50 cents, no matter how many names were in the aubpooua, and in mileage was entitled to each and every mile nec essarily traveled in tho service of the writ. The commissioners appealod to tho Supreme Court, which reversed the lower court as to the euhpootia, gave the constable 50 cents for each aud every witness on his subpoena, and held that the cunstablo was only entitled to ten cents per mile traveled one way. The Commissioners next appealed to tbe Su preme Court, which has just affirmed the derision of the Superior Court. Those familiar with Quarter Sessions cases know that there are many witness es in each trial, and thai the costs for criminal caws will now be largely aug mented. Prior to iho change iu the law making 50 cent the logal fee for sub poenaing witnesses the lee was 15 cents, which was considered fair compensation. Jiullce.

The ensign is a sunburst n silver, the center of black enamol, and bears in silver theinitialsof the academy. It is suspended from a tri-colored ribbon. 1'he distinction came without solie!ta- tlon and was entirely unexpected. Dr. Morck is the inventor of the lenticular and perfection bifocal lenses that are ao ceptedasa wonderful advancement ir appliances for correcting the sight of tho human eye, and are covered bv patents n every civilized country. Some six months ago Dr. Morck, who has written several treatises that are acknowledged to be of great merit, con triouted au article upon the scionce of correcting the eyes, to the Optholmic Journal, of New York City. The article was widely commented upon and copied n all ol the leading journals of this class, not only in this country, but iu France, Germany and in England. It was uu doubtedly the merit of this article, to gether with the distinction that bad been gained by the invention or tho bifocles, that led to tbe honor being eon forrod upou Dr. Morck.

Hopkins soils the shoes aud rubbers "Licenses to sell milk in the citv have been withheld from several milkmen be cause of improper feeding, principally of ensilage" says the Meadvilln Tribune.

Tho health board believes that the quality of milk used has a great deal to do with tho health of a community; and tho stringent rules enforced here in regard to the sale ot milk, backed by the notably good health of tho city, gives the claim strong ground."
