Mn. Epiron The result of the balloting for
County Commissioner in this County, is the election
of Dr. Goodyear, the former Commissioner. The
vote was light one, but would undoubtedly have
been heavier, were it not well known that both Dr.
Goodyca and Mr.. Wheeler, (thc candidate nomin-
ated at Charlottc) had long been true temperance
men, and the firm friends of the present law.
Both for many years. have been prominently identi-
fed with the temperance reform, and it, progression,
from the first pledge which only emioned ab,ti-
ncncc from the of Alcoholic Liquors, to the
modern one of excluding the of all liquors that
are intoxicating. II would seem that temperance
men ought to be united when such man as either
Mr.. Wheeler Dr. Goodyear is nominated by a
regular convention, for the Office of Commissioner.
But they not. The friends Of Goodyear felt
that the nomination of Mr.. Wheeler, when DR..
Goodyear had held the Office only year, was
equivalent to vote of ccnsurc upon his acts, as
COMMISSIONER and that he was not deserving of such
/ condemnation
They believed that he had discharged tho duties
of his Office with fidelity, and. if he had made mis-
take in tho appointment of a single agent the
matter susceptible of such explanation would
exonorato the Doctor from blame and no com.
no opportunity offered of making the explana
ton. Under these circumstances it was strange
that his friends should feel dissatisfied with ths
nomination Of Mr.. Wheeler and that they SHOULD
make effort to rc-elcct the former Commissioner
inasmuch as he had again been nominitcd. Neithe
it strange that those who d satisfied with
DR.. Goodyear, and had been active in procuring thu
nomination Of MIR. Wheeler, should make stron,
effort to elect the latter, but, the contrary sucl
effort expected of them. / do not think tina
the body Of the people had any very strong fccin
ON the subject, believing thai either if elected
would faithfully discharge tho duties of tho office
Although temperance men AMI the friends of tn
law were, to some extent, divided in this election
which is to be regretted, still that division shout
leave bitter feeling, for are bound to belov
that all temperance vUteo in accordance wit
their Of duty and the election having ssed
if any unpleasant feelings existed during the can
vass, they should be forgotten now, and all til
friends of the law should unite cordially in sustain
ing it, and in seeing that it is faithfully and judi
ciously enforced not in spirit of vindctiycnes
but with frmness, and from sense of duty to thos
who need the enforcement of this law, to protcC
them from intenpcrancc and its consequences. 1t
us then forget all past differences, growing out TIL
election, and unite in rendering all tle aid we ca
to DR.. Goodyear, in the discharge of his importar
duties, and work untcdly and harmOniOuSly to sta
the tide of intemperaucc and vice. aud to promOt
} sobriety, peace and happiness among the people.

Scale of Representation.

Few of our community are aware of
of the extent to which the slaveholding power
In Congress is increased by the principle on
which representatives are aprortioncd under
the Constitution.
The present number of representatives is
by law 234, of which 1875 are from free States,
and 80 from slave States. If the apportion-
ment had been made on the basis of the free
population alone, the free States would have
l6O representatives and the slave States "a
So that the slave States gain 25 representa-
tives, and the free States lose 25. 1t is well
to remember, too, that in the free States free
persons of color have the right to vote as well
as whites. In the slave States without ex-
ceeption, they are debarred of that right. But
their number goes to swell the political power
of the slaveholding interest just as if they
were free whites.

The New York Collectors.

fcating the Territorial bills introduced by |
Senator Douglas and took credit for aiding |
the passage of the bill. lie says he "rro-
cured the letter of Senator Douglasi in defence
of himself and the bill to the New IIamp
shire Patriot, to be published in several
papers in the city and country" Besides, he
has " written several articles under the sigma
turc of Gcncsce which have been published"

TnK NEpRAsKA BlLL.-As we read the fol-
lowing suggestive remarks by the Washing
ton correspondent of the Journal Of Commerce,
whose featy to the Southern interests cannot
be called in question, the well known lines OF
the poet upon an occasion when "Madness
ruled the hour" were recalled to memory
FEAR his hand his skill to try,
Amid the chords bewildercd laid
And back rsco,ied, he knew not why,
Even at the sound himself had made.
The chances increase daily of the defeat Of
the Nebraska bill IN the House, through the de-
lection of Southern men. They are going
against the bill, not for the reason that 1t pro-
tects the South in their just rights, but because
it does not do it ;-either considering the bill
separately, or as connected with other legisla
ton bearing upon it. now think that the bill
will be, and ought to be, defeated, and by thu
Southern vote. This will do no harm. Thu
policy of the bill is wrong in respect to lit
main object.-the organ zation of two new ter
rtorles, and the purchase from the Indians Q
more lands to throw away,..or give away, to an
one who will take them.

Taos. TEACHER, ESQ.,, now President ofthe
Cheshire Railroad Company, has also been cho
sen President of the Rutland and Burlington

The Cheshire and Fltclburg Railroad Compan-

rendered the engines not long since attached.
