The reason for cur "writing up" and is.
suing this paper to-day is to fulfill a
"mournful duty" and not because we feel
Ike doing the work. Weare most complete
~ and teetotally "gonc in aud used up
The excitements Of the past few weeks have
buoyed us up, and furnished us with mate
rial for thought and action, but the battle
over and the victory gained, we ere almest
too badly prostrated even to raise ''hur-
rah " We feel as if our occupation were
gone, and that--indispensable as we know
We are to the comnunity--we have nothing
now to do but sit down in a stupid state of
happiness and give way to a sense Of enner-
walton and somniferous exultation. We are
telling these things to our dear readers,
Partially te explain the comparative scarcity
Of interesting matter in our columns, and
partially to fill up those columns. We are
striving to whip ourseIf back into the traces
and hope TO revive from our present state of
collapse during the coming week.

Greek seems to be the most uncertain Big
Bar is no longer n source Of anxiety and
doubt, for it has been asc3rtaincd by ex-
press visitors to that locality, that no polls
were held there on the day of election. We
still hold to our opinion, however, that
Plum is elected by at least fifty majority
and moreover we have by no means been
convinced that Jennings, the Democratic
candidate for Treasurer, is defeated. The
