~We see by our Columbus papers that
the legislature has been balloting for Uni
Ted States Senator in place of Mr.. Chase. In
p ballotings, very little progress appears to
have been made towards an election. Allen
and Manypenny We're the chief competitors,
having about 30 votes each, two or three
more or less, while Pugh and Medary follow
with about Is and II votes each. Forty
eight votes are necessary to choice. We
have considerable faith that Pugh will be the
winner finally. Medary seems to be too
short legged to lead in race; his forte is in
driving, so we see him driving three more
agile competitors before him in this race.

ly advertised by us, were let out to contract
ors during the past week, and the lands Sc
lected in payment for the different Jobs were
set off, There are some surveys yet to be
made, and some further ditching to be con

let out, and we may expect in two years to

Our advantages and convenience Of position
will certainly compare favorably with those

contrary, during the war Of Texas for its in
