CoIINTY COMMISSIONERS

Tho nomination of County Commissioners, by the
Committee to whom the subject was referred, ano
which viii be found in this paper, is one, which, we
trust win give general satisfaction to the citizens OF the
County. 1t is one which is emnenty entitled to THEN
confidence and support. We do not hesitate to say,
and we do it without derogating at all from the merits
Of those who have heretofore held the office, that
better ticket and one combining practical business
talent such as is required the board never was
presented to the of the county for their surages
Suitable care has been taken to distribute it the
county, so that the several sections should be properly
represented, and to select those who are known, in
their respective vicintes to be capable, intelligent,
sound. practical men-men who have the confidence OF
those who know them, and worthy of like conf
dence from the whole community
There appears to he almost universal feeling that
there should be change in the board We should not,
personallv have any objections to portion of the list
nominated by cur opponents, but they have nomina-
ted list exclusively Of one party. and put their sup
port on party grounds think their election should be
resisted, by all who are not in party fellowship with
them, and especially, when have candidates, able
and competent ours, to oppose to them They offer
an exclusive istwe one that is not exclusive. What
ever claims they may make the score of talent or
worth for their candidates, say, that, while, in
cry respect quite their equals, they are, in the
essential requisites for the Office, whole board, de-
cidedly their saperiors. We know that some Wings
will engage earnestly, in the support of ticket and
as it will unquestionaby almost, if not quite, the
entire Free Soil and Democratic vote, we cannot reas
onably doubt of its triumphant election.

ALLEN AsTHORE's EPITAPH.

Here in this little cave,
The prettiest nook of this most grassy vale
All amid lilies pale
That turn
Their heads into my little vault and mourn
Stranger, have made my grave
/ am not forgot
Asmall hoarseEtream murmurs close by my pillow
And DER me green willow
Doth weep,
Still questioning the air, "Why doth she sleep,
The girl in this cold spot"
Even the way winds
Come to my cave and sigh they often bring
Rose leaves upon their wings
To strew
Ger my earth, and leaves of violet blue;
In sooth, leaves OF all kinds
Fresh in my messy bed
The frequent pity of the rocks fall here.
A sweet, cold, silent tear,
I've heard,
Sometimes wild and melancholy bird
MARBLE at my grave-head.
Read the small tablet DER,
That holds mine epitaph upon its cheeks OF pearls
"Here lies simple girl
Who died
Like pale flower nipt in its sweet spring tide,
Ere it had bloomed NO more.
