Of said county, for Electors of President
and Vice President of the United States
and empowered by law to appoint commits

ofivotingin said county, have made the ap.
pointments annexed below, In making
these appointments, we have selected thres
Of the commissioner who were appointed
for the county elections last Spring by the
county court. For this reason: there is to
be an election to Il II the vacancy in the Of
flee of Clerk OF Circuit Court, on the same
day with tho. Presidential Election. The
law requires the same commissioners who
acted at the last general Election, to act at
this special election, SO that had we ap-
pointed different men as commissioners,
there would have been two sets acting at
every precinct. As it is, there will be but
one set of men acting in two distinct ca.
pacities as commissioners; acting under our
appointment as commissioners to superin.
tend the Presidential POLAND under the ap
pointment OF the county court to superin.
tend the Clerks poll. But in the case of the
election of Clerk, there are five commits.
sioners who may actin the Presidential;
only the three WHOM we have appointed.
So that although three of the same men act
as commissioners in both elections, yet they
are entirely separate 81 distinct in their ca
pacties and powers. The three commits.
sioners appointed by us have sole control
of the Presidential poll, and the two addi'
tional, appointed by the county court, have
nothing whatever to do with it, no more
than if they were not present; they only
have concurrent supervision o! the poll
of the Clerks election.

The Presidential Nomination.

There seems To be entire unauimity among the
American press at the South in relation Ia the
policy aud down right folly Of making the Pre,i-
dental nomination early as the 22l Of Feb
ruuiy. Upon this subject the able editor of
the Louisville Jonrnai has the following, which
endorse out and out:
There il reason for our being in n hurry
TO nominate our candidate for the Presidency
The moment his name is announced, all the hos
tile parties Democrats, Black Republicans. Alb
oli,ionsis, Fresoilers, &c, &c,. &c, will of
course commence system OF abuse and denun
citation with view 10 his destruction. If he
should he patriotic aud true as Washington.
they would. by their persevering lies and calum-
MES, almost make an unbiased Judge think him
as treachcrous as Arnold. If he should be
as pure and lofty in his statesmnnship AS Clay,
they would prove him corrupt rs Bacon. If
he should be n true to his principle the
tyr who seals his faith with his blood, they would
show him to be ms false Judas. And through
out all the interval between our nomination for
the Presidency, and theirs, we could but defend
our candidate and ourselves from n succession of
false charges; could no. assail them where
they might really be the most vulnerable.
1--WE could gain nothing u party by hasten
ing our nomination; may gain by delay. No
one know~r~nat day may bring forth. Some
man able to carry this nation by acelanaton
may yet arise in time to be our candidate and
our President Why deprive ourselves of even
this chance!'
