County Omcers.

In accordance with the terms of the statute ap-
proved by the Governor of this Commonwealth,
May 10th, 1856, the duty of electng certain coun-
ty officers, will devolve upon the people the pres
ent year, for the first time. at the annual Novem-
Der election The officers to be chosen, are a
High Sheriff for each county, Commissioners of
Insolvency, Registers of Probate and Registers of
Insolvency, for each County, and District Attor-
neys in the several districts for the administra-
ton of criminal law, also, Clerk of the Court for
each county.
The Commissioners of Insolvency, Sherifs,
Registers, and Probate and District Attorneys,
are each to hold their respective offices, for three
years. The Clerks of the court for i've years, and
the Clerk of the Court ofInsolyency for two years
from the first Wednesday of January next
In addition to all these offices, the people, will
also have to choose county commissioners to
fill vacancy that occurs this year and a member
of the Council in eight different districts into
which the State is apportioned for that purpose.
Altogether, there is a nice little chance for
scramble, for the spoils of which, many will avail
themselves.
*There question whether the Commissioners of In
solvency are to be chosen not by the people. The
Constitution prescrbes that they shall be chosen but the
last Legislature, in order to provide snecure for
of the tavorites of the Executive for life passed law
establishing courts Of insolvency in each County the
judges of which to hold their offices during guod be-
hayior We understand that in Suffolk County coui-
mssoners Of insolvency have been nominated for election
by the people, and the will probably form inter
esting question for the courts decide upon.

GREAT IMPROVEMENT IN IRON MANUFAc-
TURE.-The conversion of cast iron in mallea-
bic iron, as heretofore managed, is a laborious
and difficult process, with results never very
closely approximating to perfection. Forged
iron Is the most uncertain commodity that en-
tiers into commerce OF is ever entrusted with
human safetyp Yet our whole civilization
rests upon it.
This gives great interest to the report of a
recent invention, or, as the English papers
call it, discovery made by Mr.. Bessemer
In England, of a process of converting cast
iron into malleable iron, not only without
Pttddliag and forging, but substantially with
out fuel. The chemical difference between
cast iron and wrought iron is, that the former
contains four or five per cent of carbon, while
the latter contains none, or rather not more
than l-2 per cent. His problem of the man.
ufacture is to burn up the carbon without
burning up the iron, or rather without burn
ing up too mnch Of the latter. The old pro-
cess, invented by Vulcan or Tubal Cain. is
called "ppddling melting the carbonized
IRON into paddle, and stirring it up till it
grows thick and can be hammered.
Mr.. Bessemer introduces the melted iron
into cylinder SO constructed that he can
blow air INTO any part of the liquid mass, and
the effect OF this is to produce the rapid ccm-
bustion of the carbon, which raises The heat
so as to keep the decarbonized iron still Ii.
guild. and the ebullition carries off the slug in.
the shape of foam. When the carbon is suffi.
GENTLY consumed, the melted mass is partly
drawn oil by tap into moulds--pure homo
geneous maleable iron. Fresh pig or scraps
are then added to what is left, which melt d.
rectly with the intense heat, and by the blast
acting on the added carbon the heat is again
increased without the addition of particle of
fuel thus the melting and decarbonizing is
Kept up by the very fuel contained in the pigs
themselves Ten FER cent less iron is said TO
be oXydized IN this process, and the result is
homogeneous product, or one of equal hard
ness and tenocity Throughout. The saving of
iaoos is OF course immense. Steel is produced
by simply running off the iron when il has
parted with only about half its carbon. Mr..
NaSmyth, the great iron master of England,
Is SAID to be satisfied that Mr.. Bessemer has
solved the great problem Boston Chronicle.

ELECTORAL TIcKET.-There is not little in
dignation expressed in the eastern part of the
state against some portion of the electoral tick
ct presented by the Republican and American
parties of this state. Messrs. Odiorne, of Bos-
ton and Devereux, of Salem, seem to be espec-
islly obnoxious, on account of the want of conf
denee felt by the people in the.soundness of their
porsion friends of Fremont and Dayton.
Of Mr. Odiorne we know but little any way,
and of Mr.. Devereux but little to his credit
We never liked that brass cannon affair in which
he was engaged, few years ago with the State,
and it seems very natural inference, that the
who would steal saddle, would steal
horse. Still, as this is the rascally era of the
commonwealth, when the most unveracious men
in the state are esteemed the most available can
candidates, we don't think few peccadillos in the
way of petty larceny, should be minded, especial
ly as the goods were returned. The people want
Union and harmony" If Satan will tuck his
tail up, and put neat pair of gater boots upon
his cloven feet, let him come in. Fremont and
Dayton are certain to be elected, and Odorne
and Devereux will have no motive to vote for any
other men. Let us have no more grumbling
about the electoral ticket! With Gardner at the
head and II. X Flagg at the tail, in state affairs,
can't the Union be saved another year? Who's
afraid.

publicans vote Tor Gov Gardner. Besides
the perS onal objections to the Governor, which
l do not propose to dwell upon, or do more
than allude to, there are strong political Iea-
sons which forbid us to 10 this. We want
and must have Republican State organiza-
tioh. An organization without candidates, is
all absurdity, as you know very well. Such
an organization cannot long remain in the
political field. The Republican party must
have an organization now, and candidates as
soon as it can get them. If it has to go buck
and commence with five thousand or five
hundred, or five votes, the sooner it begins
its journey the better. Nobody will pretend
that the mougrel concern which, in fear of
worse result was compelled to refrain from
nominating a State ticket, is party 1t has
no claim TO that title. 1t is dsorganized
rabble, the prey of spies, en- emies, and adven-
turers. The true men who constituted a ma.
lority of it, must sooner OF later organize and
begin anew. The sooner this is done the bet
ter. l have all along considered that one Of
the NOT distant objects which ought to stmu-
late us, was your own re election to the Sen
ate My solicitude on this particular point, is
somewhat diminished by recent events, but
there will be work enough for the organiza-
ton. In the event of COL Fremont's election
or his defeat, we want it. If he is defeated,
we want it TO resist the new eruption ofKnow
Nothingism which will be sure to burst upon
US, under the lead of the man whom YOU have
seen fit to place again in position to do mis-.
chief. In the event of his election, now con-
fdently expected, we want it first, to sustain
him in case his administration becomes what
it ought to be, under the advice of the genu.
inc democratic and anti slavery statesmen who
are SO nobly supporting him. and second, to
raise the standard for another rally, in case he
yields to the political scrubs who now seem so
anxious to take him in charge.
Now that the electoral vote is secure, and
Mr.. Summers rec election is unquestioned
and our patriotic Congressman are in such an
excellent way, and now that the Republicans
by the action of the State Convention are al
lowed to vote Tor whomsoever they see fit,
am for an immediate organization and nomi-
nation of State officers, and l hope for your
cooperation in so excellent work. l know
that you will recognize the importance of an
anti-slavery party, for l know you are, and
always will be an anti. slavery man. You have
also shown talent for organization, and
talent for disorganization unequalled by any
man in the country. 1 prefer to have you
employ the former faculty, rather than to ap-
pear as you have done so recently, in the
character Of an "architect of ruin"
Yours, very respectfully,
A Republican Of 1854 and 1856.

County and Dis,rict Couvcutious.

We publish, in another column, the call of the
Committees for the County and District Conven-
TONS and trust that the Republicans of the Coun-
ty and District need only to be reminded when
and where the Conventions are to be held, to in
duce them to hold their preliminary meetings in
the several towns, and elect their delegates oftrue
and tried men, not forgetting that backbone is
not the least of the qualities that It is desirable
delegate should possess to such Conventions, in
time when principles are liable to be snapped for
office, or the hope of office, with the ready facility
that the boys swap jack-knives and jewsharps

A BIG HEART UNDER BLACK SKIN.-A
colored hand upon the Crescent City, at the
recent collision, went into the hold with Mr..
Martin to find the leak. On discovering a
hole through which the water was rushing
into the boat, the black man for moment
was in study what to do, but remarkine
that there were too many valuable lives on
the boat to be lost he plunged his head into
the hole, while others were procuring blan.
kets but before they could be got, the cold
water upon his head was driving him distract
ed, when taking his head away, he changed
ends, and thus kept the leak plugged up, un-
til other means were brought to make the
stoppage more effectual We wish we knew
tho name Of this man, il deserves TO be engray.
