At the examination of the case, which took place before Mayor Hall, there was a large number of colored people present, among whom the matter appeared to excite great feeling, principally for Ward. I The latter alleged that Howe had debauched his young daughter, who died yesterday. Witnesses who were pres ent testified to the meeting of Ward and Howe in the office of the Register of Deeds, where Howe is employed as a clerks Of Ward telliag Howe of the condition of his victim, and of Howe's resenting the impu tation and finally jumping through the win dow to go in search of a magistrate.

The quality is a little better than usual, be cause of the rains early in the season in the South, which ripened them quickly.

THE ARITHMETICAL PROBLEM . AGAIN. , ' y - Mr. Editor: "School Boy'' must have been on his vacation, playing ball, spin ning tops and flying kites so long that be has forgotten the first principles of mathe matics that he learned last session, j I thought I stated the answer so plain that it -would bring back even to bald-headed school boys the remembrance of tne first rules ox arithmetic; but u seems 1 failed, and if you will' allow me the i space, Mr. Editor, I will, be more explicit and quote my authorities.' ! i Multiplication is addition simplified, or in otner words is a process or taaing one numner as many times as mere are units in another; and I the mul tiplier is the number denoting how many times the multiplicand is taken; The multiplicand may be either con crete or abstract, but the multiplier must always be regarded as - abstract; vide any arithmetic. For instance; 19 pounds can be multiplied by 19. making 361 . pounds,- but I can't conceive what the answer would be if we tried to take 19 pounds 19 ponds times. . -t f-':-';. ; 'f!v In White's arithmetic, page 139, we find the following: "' - . "Compound multiplication is the process of taking a compound number a given number of times. The multiplier is al ways an abstract number. - & Olney's Algebra, page 60, we find the following giving an illustration precisely analagous to the question under discussion. I will quote the exact language for the benefit of the school boy who evidently never Btudied algebra or else has forgotten all he ever knew about it. ' t '. ; . ; , : "The multiplier must always be con ceived as an abstract number,since it shows hov many times the multiplicand is to be taken. Thus to propose to multiply $12 by $5 is absurd. We can understand that five times $12 is $60; but what is mean t by five dollars times T" : ''i i I presume Pfof. Olney knew what he was talking about, although V School isoy, like most school boys, thinks he .knows (t all. . ' - - j r- I The mill men can get along 1 very well and not multiDlv feet bv feet, and the property-holder is not obliged to multiply his rods together to find how many acres he has.- - " ' - ' " - . ' Now, in conclusion, Mr. Editor, I assert that the question cannot be performed, be cause it is an absurdity on its face, ana l . j nave provea it oy gooa autnonues, iz; White's arithmetic and Olney's algebra. and I have explained it to the best of my ability, and now If "School Boy? can't un deistand it.
