Burtis, our csedidate for County Treasurer, is in every way a trustworthy man. He has been a resident of this county twenty-four rears, and has acted with the Republi• can i litirty since 1856, inclusive. He holds a hialt moral position among his neighbors. Harrison will give hint 100 - niajority—llcctor, 00 majority—and all the large towns will sustain him with full votes and undivided majorities. The large towns nounnated him, and they will elect him by a large majoiity over any opponent they may trot out. Spencer, du you hear that Y lit is lot So, that Woolsey Burtis threatened that if he was not nominated by the Convention he would be an independent candidate. We have talked with F,quire Chesebro and others who are said to have been present- at the time the m-hertion is eharg eCt' ; and they say he made no such as sertion. He refused to make any per st,nal pledges, and referred inquires as to his position, to the delegation front Har rison, in whose hands he left the whole matter, with the express understanding, that he and they were to abide by the decision of the Convention. The reason We 'made the inquities in this matter was, bee,ause a prominent Republican had as serted it to us, and we believed justice to all concerned required a frank and expli cit exposition of the facts, whatever they inimht be. We believe we have now Stated them. Ili. J. Olmsted, is the best. Prothonotary and Clerk- of Courts this county has ever lit.d fiom any party. He is well acquainted with the defies of the uttie,e, and. is willing to per in-r.m diem faithfully. His long experi ence in the (ace bus made him familiar with all the business transacted in the Courts for a number of years: No newly elected man could go into the . affice. and acquire a knowledge t f its ordinary roil : tine of business in less than ono year at least.. The People very wisely expressed Omit. desire to retain the efficient seririees of Mr. Olmsted by re•nowinatin_g him iu , - the Conventiou—and they will, .with equal wisdom, emphatically endorse that nomination at the polls a week from next Tuesday. The office is now seeking him —not he the office. . Only One Week, froth nest Tucsdaj is the'day for the State Election—and everythiugdepends on that.
