In pursuance of such pledge, a meeting was held on Tuesday night, at which the following nominations were made, viz For Ordinary, C. T. War 1 Clerk of the Superior Cuuit.

It is of more vital e urern to the public that tli* offices lie filled with h me-1 capable men thau that their chief virtue shall consist in party euti. money for the mere sake of success.

IN addition to the usual inconvenience which has been suffered by the public from the prevalence of the horse disease, we now see a complete blockaded condition of our railroads and the almost total suspension of all commer cial business in onr citv for mere lack of street transportation. This unusual state of affairs sutruest* the want of some immediate relief, both to the railroads and the merchant. Upon consultation, therefore, with the railroad au thorities and the different dray companies iu the city. I hereby give notice to any and all per sons in the adjoining counties, that they are in vited and requested"to bring in their ox-tennis and assist ns in the dray w ork of our city for the next two or three "weeks, at the end t ■ which time we hope to be able to resume the horse and mule labor. Parties bringing their oxen to the city will be allowed to use them in the dra' age of a.l goods FREE OF LICENSE. It is believed that twenty to thirty teams could find constant work "here for several days, at good paying price* _ decll tf W. A. HL FF, Mayor.
