TWO LARGE BON FIRES AT NIGHT, The nomination of Hon, Grover Cleve- land, of New York, for President, and Hon. Thos. A. Hendricks, of Indiana, for Vice President, of the United States, swept the land with a tide of entusiasm from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Shouting thousands thronged the streets everywhere and by every sign which a free people and a grand old party can use to display its ap- proval was made manifest by the general good feeling and high spirit everybody seemed to be in, At about 8:30 o'clock anxious people be_ gan to flock towards the Oourt House and in a short time it was filled to overflowing The Mt. Eagle and Zion Cornet Bands were present and discoursed very sweet music. At the rear of the Judge's stand was a large canvas on which was inscribed in large letters ; “GROVER CLEVELAND, Toe REFORMER, AND THOS, A. HENDRICKS, Tur Croice oy '76.” On the bearing the words “Hancock Legion,’ and left of it was a beautiful banner another very handsome banner on the right.

No one proposes wo punish them for any sins of commission or omission. They have already had mor, than two ordinary terms, Their regular session lasted 166 days, for which they re- ceived $1500, besides mileage and sllow- ances for stationary and postage. The ex - tra session which followed lasted as long, and for which they drew from the State Treasury an equally large compensation, This, too, with only the trouble snd ex- pense of one election. They have already had as many days of legislative expericnce, and as much PAY, 8s any representative sent from this county for the last thirty years, unless it might possibly be Mr Meek, who was elected four times 10 an. | nual sessions.
