County Commissioner.

We have not yet received returns IRON
all the towns in the county, and Of course
do not know exactly how the vote stands
for County Commissioner, but sufficient
have been received however to show that
Mr.. Hastings Is elected by small ma.
ioritv. Now that he is elected we shall
take it upon ourself to give him a moiety
of advice, which we hope he will receive
with that spirit Of kindness in which 1t Is
given. We are a true friend of Mr.. Has
tings and intend to be a consistent advo-
cate Of temperance. Our advice to him
is,that for his own credit-as well as for the
honor Of the society of which he has for
the past two years been the successful
nominee-he make better appointments
of agents in some towns for the year to
come than he has for the year past, for
It cannot be denied by him or by his
friends. that he has made some outrageous
amendments, of men who have sold Ii
ouor unlawlully to all who have called
for it-men who have peddled it out to
known drunkards, and has appointed
agents who have been besotted with bad
rum full one half the time for the year
that is nearly past. This is notoriou:
truth-a truth Of which Mr.. Hastings
cannot plead ignorance, for to our certain
knowledge he was informed that at least
ONE Of his agents was a man Of intern.
'perale habits he was informed Of the
fact the day after he appointed him, ant
/ The Commissioner has since been writer
to that the said agent had made that tow
Ia perfect hell upon earth" with the un
lawful sale of his miserable rum.
If these statements are not true, thu
. Commissioner can have the use Of GU
colums to disproye them, and we her
say in all candor that we hope he may b
able to prove every charge false. Shout
he do so, we opine the inhabitants of 4
least ONE town between Irasburgh an
Derby, would be surprised.
These statements would have bee
mod. beC,re the election had we not feal

~ Mr.. Yulee says in the Senate
that the rates Of postage are to be raised.
OF course. Maintain the frankign priv

Of miles out Of the direct way in order 10

with three or four companies Of specula--

then levy the cost of it all on every poor

g. 4 letter from Washington re
lates that Mrs. r, of New York,
the wife of a linSeed oil manufacturer,
wore to the Napier ball diamonds valued
at 100000, and lace worth $4,000.
Her heavy tiara and necklace were
wholly composed Of diamonds, and her
breastplate were of diamond leaves. She
stood "knee deep'-Jenkins' elegant
expression-in old lace-an Italian fab
ric of exceeding delicacy, the secret Of
the manufacture of which has long been
lost. It fell over blue silk from hel
knees to her feet, and also in graceful
folds over her bosom. The lady sat du-
ring the whole of the evening by win
dow opening from side room into tbt
dancing halls, in a position where thu
light could fall favorably upon her opu
lence. But she did not dare TO enter
the crowd, for fear that the lace nigh
be injured, or the diamonds ravishei
from her person.
