TIE Election. Nothing OF an exciting
nature was presented at the April cleo
ton. The question a, issue was al On
one side. The only valuable office 10 be
filled was tina, OF Sc..ool Fund Commits
sioner, and both candidates for the office
were Anti-Slavery men-bo,h opposed
10 the further extension OF Slavery and
both opposed 10 ,he Nebraska Bll-or in
other words both were Anti Nebraska
hence there was no political issue OF
principles between them. l. was not
party fight as the pro-slavery and Slave.
ry-ex!ension party had no candidate in
the field
At the time Of writing this we do not
know the result, Of the election, but, which
ever way it turns; il cannot be claimed
as party triumph, as only one side of
the question at issue was represented by
a candidate.

Having the honoro of being present,

The exercises v aried; some amused
themselves in friendly chit-chat,

The ladies deserve much credit for
the excellent dinner prepared by them,
for the occasion, which was very
acceptable, after climbing hills and
