regular trips through notwithstanding the delays
caused by the snow storm, and are now running to
time. We stated yesterday that they failed to
connect with the South-Side cars, and should have
added, because the South-Side did not reach
the Junction. Yesterday, however, connection
was made, and we presume there viii be no further

Co,os at Ldrge.-To prevent the frequent acci-
dents occurring in the streets from cows going at
large, a. well as to prevent the destruction of pro-
perty and great annoyance To which our citizens
are subjected the Council win be compelled pass
an ordinance prohibiting them from going at large
either night or day. At this time there are two
gentlemen confined to their beds, and probably
made cripples for life, by cows at large; and scarce
ly week passes that we do not hear of some lady
or child being injured by horned cattle, in the
streets. In nearly every city in the Union owners
OF cows are compelled by law to keep them on
their premises, to prevent public nuisance. and

BEDFoEsEo EsORoUGE,


As our friends in tie country may not be
aware IF the cause Of the change in this Bo-
rough from last gear, we viii state the reas-
ons. There are every ye.lr more changes
from persons moving ut,aad others moving
IN than IL, any other part Of the county
Since last fall, the removals have been from
30 to 40 against Us. We still ought 10
have had about 30 Of majority, but as is
veil known, there are mere persons here
that can beinfuoneed By money, than III
any other part Of tie county. We know OF
several church members, among :Iem
the l;beler Of tie living ard the dead.
also certain fellow, who deserted the
l.ocofoco party to be elected Associate
Judge By the Americans, and then, IN tufn,
deserted them, who doserrated the Sabbath
and made Sunday their electioneering day,
and visited houses, the occupants OF whom
they would not notice at any other time
persons whom they supposed to be needy =
This DAY for several months was deSecrated
in this way By them. 0theys Of the gang
would buy this man barrel Of -four, aud
hand that one a i've dollar bill. Several,
early in the campaign, were bought, one
with three hundred dollars, o;heIs With the
promise Of patronage and Office. The de-
sertion Of one of the ciEcers Of the election
Injured US about fve votes, Illegal Loeofoeo
votes were taken and legal voters Of ours
rejected. Everybody knows what caused
that dcsertion About twelve voted against
us who still pretend to be with us,eyerY enc
of whom was bought. aud who are yet afraid
te come out openly, bat who, nevertheless,
are known. Not less than $1,000 were
spent in this Borough and Township alone
We are rid Of the rubbish now, aud We will
know our strength hereafter, and gloriously
triumph in the future.

out in every district, for months previous
10 the election, circulating the most aDonl-
inaGle lies against our candidates that eF-
er were thought eff. They had large sun
of. money, sent on from New York ana
Washington in every borough and town
ship, for the purpose Of buying votes, and
that enough were purchased - change the
result, no one doubts. In this borough and
township, for weeks before the election, so
reckless we're iLey in their efforts to puG-
chase votes, that they could not keep the
matter secret, and we knew Of seYerIs per
