The teohnioal school at JXewarx was established under this act. It was organ ized in 1884. and has a large building. three stories high. Prof. Chas. A'.

The foourse has been extended to four years instead of .three. It is a difficult mat- f ter to carry our students over from one year to the next, so eager are the boys to sret to work after they onoe learn a little." The following additional facts are from a recent paper : The sohool employs three teachers Besides the director.. t- ADDlieants for admission must not be less than sixteen years of age, and of good morci character, and must be resi dents of Newark.

The students have no laboratory, as the sohool is Only intended to give an insight into Science rather than to make specialists or the students j On the third floor are the rooms for drawing, tracing, &o., which form part of the education of the students. There, are geometrical figures, outlines of human faees, objects of every known kind and shading casts of different parts oi the human frame. Pupils begin bydrawing a model of these Astisles, and according to their ex ceiienoe ana execution are given more difficult parts Free-hand: drawing is first taught, because a knowledge of that science invaluable ' in all trades. and leads the pupil to a knowledge of how to handle all mechanical lnstru ments that may come to hand.

' comnjenuea you to the gpoa poopie oi our entire State, it is no wonder that one of the best conventions I have ever seen has selected you with such unanimi ty to wear the ermine that you have al ready worn with such ability and purity.

McLean, Ch'm'h &c: Dew Sir Your esteemed favor of the 23rd inst. is before me. A public officer is a public Servant l'he office is conferred upon him to the solo end that the public may be served and if in the discharge of its duties he is influenced by any considerations of personal advantage to himself or by any other motive than benefit to the people whom he has be-n called upon to serve, he is false to his trust and unworthy of his office. The judiciary is that branch of the State government which ia nearest to the people and upon its impartiality and ef ficiency the interest of every oitiien largely depends. The largest part of (the taxation of the State is required for the necessary expenses of our courts. The courts are established that life, liberty ana property may De protected, it is the duty of thoso charged with .the ad ministration of the courts to seo that there is no undue waste of the publio time and that justioe is administered as speedily and economically as is consis tent with exact justice to all parties The taxpayer has a right to require that his contribution to public uses shall not be wasted by an inefficient -adminiatra tion of the oourta. The administration of criminal law punishment, while merciful, should be directed not merely to the punishment of the defendant but to deter other from like offences and thereby to dimii - is a the volume of crime which taxes the pockets and the patience of our people. Especial pains should be taken that the hand of the law should not tall only up on the weak and the poor, while wealthy and influential offenders: are allowed to go unwhipped of justioe.1 These are the sentiments which havo actuated me during the short time I have been upon the bench. Coming into the discharge of duties new to me, 1 have, of course, made! many mistakes The people, who look quite through the deeds of men and scrutinise sharply, as a right to do. the acts of their servants, are aware of how far I have fallen short of the mark, but in their generosity they have appreciated my motives and taken the will for the deed I so understand the unanimous vote" of your convention. I am? deeply to iched bv this mark of confidence from the people of this judicial district as ex pressed by your convention Next to the approval of his own conscience, the highest reward a public officer can have is the approbation of good men. I accept the nomination so flattering ly bestowed and thank you for the kind terms in which you have conveyed to me the action of the convention.

Cor. of the Naws and Obskkvir. remaps tne ioi lowing bit ot expe rience may throw some light on the cause of the bad odors your people seem to be chasing to such little pur pose. About nve years ago our yard was, on a moist, sultry, July night, suddenly possessed by the most noisome smell that it: has ever befallen me to encounter. It seemed to contain the worst qualities of all the evil odors that 1 had ever before experieLced, besides divers qualities of its own to which nothing else on earth could lay claim. After bearing it till endurance was no longer possible and satishcd that our premises were in per feet order, stepped over to our neigh bor (a stranger and new-comer-) whose yard adjoined, and as blandh and deli cately as 1 knew how, alluded to the odor, adding that my wife thought something must ba wrong on his place tif.i ill i i i i Yi un equal niananess ana aencacy nc replied that his wife had all along been begging him to see if there was not something wrong on mine. 1 invited him to inspect my premises for himself; he returned the favor as to his. W e set out hunting, searching and sniffing. now it was here, now there : now no where and again everywhere. But by no means could we locate it exactly. I was confident that the odor was a little '.stronger in his yard. I could see that he was equally confident that it was little stronger in mine. Well, by dint of closed windows and much discomfort we pulled through the summer, with the settled conviction that our neighbors were a very improper sort of folks ; and it was plain that they returned 'the compliment. All chance of our being neighborly was thereby destroyed forever. Another summer had come and our neighbors had gone before the mystery was solved. 1 hen there feli from an ash tree, which seems to be their favorite habitat a beetle about three inches long, and of an olive gray color (say putty) with a tinge of green and a few faint spots or splotches, while a pair of perpendicular and appa rently utterly useless nippers situated just over the head gave it an appearance at onoe most odd and dangerous. A very short interview settled the cause of the evil smells beyond doubt. I then recollected having seen the same beetle Beveral years previous in an apple tree, at which time an amateur entomologist informed me that they were rare, or, at least, not common, and also gave me their name, which I have forgotten. However, in point of uncanny looks and evil odors they are easily first among all our bug kind. Since then we have been troubled with them more or less every summer Owing to their elevated position the odor is of the most elusive, unaccounta ble nature, as it depends on air currents, and is rarely strongest immediately un der the tree.
