C0NGR ESS.

The contest for the nomination in this
district is becoming interesting to aspirants.
The candidates named in this county, are
Major VIM. L. Dewart, Judge Montgomery,
and Judge Welker. A communication in
favor Of Judge Weker appeared in our
columns last week. One in favor of Major
Dewart will be found in our paper this
week. Indeed, Major Dewart has been
looked upon as a candidate since the last
campaign, when he received the unani-
nous domination of this county, and his
friends now think, under the circumstan-
ceS, that he should receive the unanimous
vote Of the party this fall. The Major has
many warm personal and political friends,
and would undoubtedly make strong run
in this county.

TIE SuPR EhIE CnunT

Commenced its sessions at this place on
Monday last. Judge Lowrey, did not ar
rive until Thursday morning last. Pre-
vious to this term the judges were in
the habit Of holding two sessions day.
They have adopted new rule and now
hold but one session, viz from 9 A. M. to
2 p. M. This enables the court TO do quite
as much business as previously, and gives
the lawyers more time for prepars'ion.-
This is the first court held by the new jud-
ges. Chief Justice Black was to US an en-
tire stranger, although bis reputation as a
j0rlst and man OF talent had made his
name familiar. Judge Lewis was formerly
President Judge OF this district, and is well
known here as an able jnrist and one of the
best Of. judges we ever had on the bench.
Judge Woodward when at the bar practsed
in the Supreme Court at this place, and al
wavs sustained high character as a law
yer and gentleman. Judge Gibson, the
"old Chief" as we called him under the old
regime, has world wide reputation as a
jurist. His opinions are perfect models o
judicial composition, and he is great Ia
voritc among the profession. The present
bench is composed Of able men and we
trust the good sense OF the people will al.
ways prompt them 10 select no other

The terrible contlagralion in Montreal is
still raging furiousIy, and the light can be
distinctly Seen from tins place, though it is

Thursday morning, and has consequently
now been raging Is hours a gentleman

ireal, which place he left yesterday, de-
scribes the scene of the connagralion as
awful aud appalling. The flames were ra-
gug unchecked and hundreds and thousand
of families were wandering about without
shelter 10 cover them. The sparks and
burning embers were flying in all directions
thus spreading the conflagration, and il WAS
impossible to predict when and where the
calamity would stop.

out, and The intense heat of the flames pre-.
vented either the ircmen or citizens from
approaching the scene 10 stay the progress
of the raging element. Every one seemed
stuck with terror and as the wind was very
high, it was feared that nearly the whole
city would fall prey to the flames Al
the time Of his leaving, our informant state,
tha, the fire had already space larger thar
the city of Troy.
The teegraphic mas's and post were al
burned, which will prevent all communica
