Charlie Bartlett C'abaniss, Alex Atkinson and Bob Whit field are in the race, and the people ar< to judge who is the most capable of till ing this veiy important c ftiee. „i It is a reflection on any comrounitj for a man to claim that he can go then on election days and change the com plexion of the ballot.

BeO, who lives near Llyin in this county, and who is 75 years old, thought he hear.i a noise in his barn last Tuesday night about 3 o clock. He took his gun and went on an investigating tour. One Lewis Barkley, colored, had secured about I<K) pounds of fodder, and when he heard Mr. Bell approaching lie ran. Mr. Bell asked the gentleman to stop which he refused to do, until Mr. Bell persuaded him to stop suddenly by putting a load of shot in his thigh. It was a good shot to have been made in the night b} r as old a man as Mr. Bell. We regret to learn of the death of Mr. I hoinas Grissom, which sad event oc curred at the residence of Mr. Jud Rob erts, at \\ orthville, this morning [Thurs day.) Mr. Grissom was a young man of exemplary character, and was highly esteemed by all who kuew him. The sympathies of the akgvs are exteuded to his relatives in their sad bereave ment.
