The County CoMM1ssIoa s.-The
county commissioners elect met on Sat-
"rday last to qualify and organizes; hut
the contest between Messrs AIacley and
Craig prevented an organization, and
they adjourned over till to-day, CFrday
November 2sth); what they will do to-
day, remains to be seen, but we presume
there will be no difficulty, as the Gov
ernor has this week sent commissions
for seven, Mr.. Mackey being one of
them.
The six whose election is unpuestion.
ed, viz: Tyson Of the 1st District, Boul-
den of the 3rd, Carter Of The 4th, Lack
land of the 9th, Taylor of the 9th and
Montgomery Of the 7th swore in. Mr..
Craig and Mr.. Mackey were both pres
ent, each claiming the right to fill the
vacancy then remaining. The six who
had qualified, by ballot determined, that
Mr.. Mackey should have the seat. Mr..
Craig presented an ably drawn protest,
which he asked might be entered on the
journal, but which the others did not
agree 10. Mr.. Mackey urged his claims
on the ground that he was one of the
seven having the highest number of
votes, and that, therefore he was, by the
Constitution, the Commissioner. Mr..
Craig, contended that the same law
which authorized the election of seven
commissioners, required that one should
reside in each election District. that
that provision of the law was still in
force; that the members of the Conven-
ton stated that such was the under.
standing; that if there was a doubt,
winch he did not admit, the decision
should be in accordance with Justice
and reason; and that reason and Justice
demanded that the Second District
whose property was taxed equally with
the property Of the Fourth District,
should not be deprived of a voice in
levying that tax while the 4th should
have two representatives. That nc
Constitution or law could require any.
thing so manifestly unjust.
These were some of the matters urged

u Report of the trial Of Edward
CHM, OF Bcl-air, taken from Tile Baln-
more San, will be found in another col
umn. He was sentenced to be hung on
Tuesday. Here is fearful lesson.
We know CHM we'll. Before he drank
so much and became entangled with
those degraded women he was rather a
good sort Of fellow. Whiskey and de-
banchrry have destroyed him. Ii seems
pity he should be hung, for he was
without doubt, partially maniac, and
We think those who have influence in
the matter, should make an attempt to
have his sentence comnuted to inpris-
onment in the penitentiary. In our
opinion his fate would not have been so
hard had his trial been here-but there's
no t"llng.

THE HlLLoTypE DELusloN.-The
New York State Daguerrean Associa-
tion recently appointed a committee to
investigate the alleged discovery of Mr..
l.. L. Hill, with respect to his ability in
taking the daguerreotypes in colors, and
they report that not only has Mr.. l.. L.
Hill deluded many professors in the Da-
guerrean Art, but that he has deluded
himself thoroughly and completely; that
the origin of the discovery was delu-
sion; that the assumed progress and i'm
provement of it was adelusion; and that
the only thought respecting it in which
there is no delusion is for every one to
abandon any possible faith in Mr.. Hills
abilities to produce natural colors in
daguerreotypes-of which the whole
history has been an unmitiyated delu-
sion.

There is petition before the people

a May term in Havre de Grace, for the
trial of all cases originating in the I'd

district, with regard to roads, poor-tax,

More Silence.

Mr.. Hooper, the author of ST.
mon Suggs, and many other stories
and sketches of Southern life and
manners, relates the following laugh
able occurrence in the last nunlbe Of
his paper, the Chambers Tribu ne:
Every one who has visited the
Seat Of the State Government, at
any time within the last ten years,
during session, knows Jenny Owen,
the Irish door-keeper Of tie House.
Jenny was taken, in manner and
form following, to wit:
The Governor had given a party,
on the night previous to the occa-
sion whereof we are going to speak,
and 'Otard' and champagne had been
literally imbibed. The orgies had
lasted till the sma' hours, a nd the
next day nearly every one was on the
stooLof repentance. The House was
particularly thin and drowsy. Not
a soul was in the lobby. The Speak
Ell nodded in his seat. Jenny sat,
ylna somnoque grayidus, b oft upright,
bit unconscious in his box; while a
pfosy old member was mauling away
nlpnotonously on some obnoxious
item in the Tax Biz With this ex-
c$ption, all was as quotas the HOUSE
of death.
Aleck Clitherall, who was then as
si$tant clerk, seeing jennings situa-
ton, and envying his comfort, left his
deskand going up. to histvictimpinch-
ed him savagely on the thigh, Kissed
tiercely in his ear at the same time
Jenny, don't you hear the speakers
hammer? There's hi Of a row in
the lobbyl'
Jenny bounced from his seat as
| if it had been red hot, and without
waiting to open his eyes, roared- alb
Tsolutely Observation-Disclosures, you
must really keep MORE silence in
the Lobby, if you plaze!'
Flesh and blood couldn't stand it.
The Speaker laughed outright, and
the prosy member sank upon his seat.
AS for Jenny, in an instant big dis
covered how he had been sold, and
started in hot chase Of Aleck. No
man ever knew how the matter was
compromised when Jenny caught
him, few have been bold enough to
enquire; and those few have received
remarkably little satisfaction.
