Another FizzLs.-A friend in Bremen
writes US that after publishing the announce
nento meeting in the newspapers aud
distributing hand-bills all over that secection
OF the county. the Locofocos attempted to
get up crowd on Thursday evening in Bre-
men, in favor of "King and that other fell
low" and succeeded in getting twelve
Wings and ten Locofocos to listen to the
speakers--Doctor Kugay, Doctor Shrader
and Captain Seifert. One OF these in all
conscience would have been enough to sat-
is;y any audience that the Locofocos are
making use Of small means to accomplish u
great undertaking.
Doctor Kagay spoke, He wandered of
into Tennessee, then to Maine, then to Ar
kansas, then to Canada and finally, as a
matter Of course, went down the Niagara
Falls with that vessel. He efinaly succeeded
in convincing the audience that the GazetL
told the truth when it said that he was sor
OF compound Of the knave and fool. VIII,
does the redoubtable Doctor wander of t.
Bremen to attack the Gazette! lie aske'
and obtained the opportunity TO give u
"h--ll" at one Of the Hickory Club meet
ings, and never said Gazette once. We
now take it for granted thathe wants further
notices from the Gazette aud we shall ac'
commodate him. While Clark does the bu.
siness of the Office, for which the Doctor
gets the pay, it is no more than right that he
should pay the party by following his natur.
al occupation of blackguard, for which he
was originally qualified.
DR.. Shrader spoke!
Captain Seifert let Of!
By the way, after telling the anecdote a.
bout the man who climbed upon the upper
most height Of the Iowermost limb of "A cher
ry tree to get some peaches to make plum
pudding, the Captain got strad lie of the
fence, and come to the natural conclusion
that his audience would vote as they pleased
anyhow, but as for him and his family, the,
would vote for Gen. Pierce. Very likely.
Our correspondent closes with desir,
that we should publish what the speaker
were driving at, but we beg to be excused
We have heard all three Of them and lik
the audience in Bremen, we are compelle
to acknowledge that we have not the capaC
ity to appreciate the manner in which We,

PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIoN.-The law pas
sed last winter, regulating the election of
Governor, members the Legislature, cOun-
,y officers, &c, provides that the poll books
shall be kept open till sic O'clock, p. NJ
This should be remembered by judges Of
elections over the Stute, as it applies to the
election to be held on the I'd Tuesday of Oc-
tober.
/ But there is nothing in the law Of last win
| ter that changes the time of closing the polls
ut the election of Presidential Electors. -
This, by the law, is fixed at four O'Clock, as
was formerly the case in all elections in this
State. 1t should have been changed so as
to make the time of closing uniform, and we
hope the Legislature will attend to it this win
ter
Meanwhile, the judges of elections, voters,
&C., will please bear in mind that, at the
State election, on the 18th of October, the
polls are to remain open till Sir o'cioc6 in the
afternoon, but that at the Presidential cleo
ton. on the I'd OF November, the polls close
at four O'clock. This is important, and
should be duly impressed upon the minds OF
the people, everywhere in the State.
If there has been any law passed that has
changed the time of closing the polls, at the
Presidential election, it has escaped our no.
tice, and we will be much obliged to any one
if he will notify US and the public.-O s.

A sMer.AH CASE or suErERINo FRoM AN

A SINer1AR CASE OF SUFFERING From AN
AcoJOESr.-Miss Ann NJ. Clark, who brot'
sui. to recover $4,000 damages from the
city Of Boston, for injuries sustained in fall
ing into u cellar, ut the time OF the great
railroad jubilee in that city, obtained a ver-
dict for $500, on Saturday last. The Trav-
eler says that the testimony of the Massa-
chusetts General Hospital physician, where
Miss Clark has remained for nearly the
whole time since the accident, discloses the
following singular result:
Miss Clark is about 10 years oIage; pre-
vious TO he accident she was employed us a
wurstet worker at Maiden, and enjoyed gooG
health. On the last evening OF the raiir"au
iubilre, she proceeded with some fFlehus u
witness the fireworks in BowGoiu Square
! On their return home they passed tii'ougm

through a cellar way which had Deeh uccl-
id,ntally left rpen after the grade OF the streel
and sid walk mad been altered. Atter she
was taken out she complained Ut feeling as
If she had been struck in the stomach. The
next day she proceeded to her work at Nal
den. was there seized with vomiting, ant
violent pains in the stomach; she returned u
Boston, was conveyed to the Massachusetts
General Hospital, where she has remained
ever since The physicians say that in he
fall she received an injury to her spine, an
the result is, that she cannot keep upon he
stomach but very small quantity of 10 ID, a
amount barely sufficient to sustain life, bu
not enough to stay the cravings OF appetite
Her chief alinent is molasses and water, an
if any amount above two ounces is given
her, her stomach soon rejects it. Varior
expedients have been devised by the phys
clans to administer nourishnent. Anon
others. blisters have been applied and the
Cod Liver Oil rubbed on the scari6ed SD
face, aud thus absorbed into the system.-
The unfortunate young woman is little be
ter than a skeleton, and her sutferings are |
doubt very severe. The physicians sta
that there is recorded in the books but oil
