We have all the officers elect, we believe,
correctly compiled, for the especial benefit
of our patrons. In some of the townships
the contest for the officers was close the
Democrats and Republicans making a party
matter out it. in this district, Bloom, the
Republicans formed a ticket entirely ol their
. i . r ' . ...
own material ; and pretty generally, it was
nuccessful, they being rather largely in the
-majority. The party that oor influence was
with, succeeded to eleet a Constable, re
elected an officer for Overseer of the Poor,
and re-elected oor Assessor. All things
passed off smoothly, and we hope to the
entire satisfaction of all those concerned.

of the bill, aad Col. Hillman against it, and
upon the request of the latter a report upon
the bill was deferred until after the recess,
to enable him uto consult his constituent'
We do not learn that Messrs. Pughe and
Ketchom, upon whose action the fate of the
bill depends, have yet declared themselves
in the matter, but have seemed thus far to
