The Democratic County Ticket.

The Democratic County Convention, on
the 29th, as will be seen from its proceed
ings, nominated-for Sheriff, Ross WILKIN-
SON for Clerk of District Conrt, MICHAEL
J. O'CoNNoR for Register of Deeds, LOUIS
DEMUELE for Treasurer, ROBERT A. SMITH;
for District Attorney, ISAAC V. D. HEARD;
for Judge of Probate, j. F. HoYT for
County Surveyor, CHAs. A. F. MORRIS.
Mr.. Ross WILKINSON, is at present Dep.
uty under Sheriff TULSA fact which will
be conclusive evidence with the better part
of our people, that he is unfit to occupy any
position of trust or honor. The office Of
Sheriff here seems to be placed under some
ban, which prevents any proper man being
even named to fill it. During our eight
years residence here, that Office has, with
few exceptions, been filled and deputized
by men without moral or business qualfi-
cations for their place. 1t has been kept
within a clique, no one of whom had or has
personal credit or reputation. Wehope the
people of the county will right this long
endured wrong this fall and place some
man of substance and responsibility in the
Sheriff s office.
Mr.. NJ. j. O'CoNNER, the nominee for
Clerk of the District Court, now holds the
Offices of City Alderman, County Com.
missioner, and Assessor; number and
variety of positions quite as great, most
people will think, as his capacity will
admit of.
Mr.. LOUIS DEMEULE has been the stand
ing Democratic candidate for Register Of
Deeds ever since we can remember. He
was always beaten when the Democratic
party was thoroughly organized, and had a
majority in the county of thousand or
twelve hundred votes. He will, of course,
be beaten now, when bis party is utterly
disorganized, and is without any majority
whatever with which to bring up his
chronic arrearages.
ROBERT A. SMITH, the present incumbent
and nominee for County Treasurer, is a
good nomination. He has been an honest,
obliging, faithful officer. If be is not
elected, it will only be because be has suf-
fered himself to be placed in bad company.
The political world is filled with Dog
Trays; though we shall be sorry if he shall
furnish another example of the fact.
The nominee for District Attorney is
Isaac V. D. HEARD. ISAAC is what is
popularity known as ga nice young man"
For Judge of Probate, the present officer
is renominated; a fact which is ordinarily
considered sufficient endorsement of the
qualification of candidate.
For County Surveyor, an office of very
little Importance, CHARLES A. F. MORRIS is
nominated. He now holds the office OF
City Engineer.

The prisoners were marched from the wharf
surrounded by their military escort, to the
Astor House, where the Ex-Governor was
put in one room, the newspaper men in an
other, and all were treated to good dinners,
still under the jealous observation of the
guard. This, however, was not the prison
nor the fare to which the Government has
condemned them, and later in the day they
were obliged to exchange their elegant
quarters for the palmer bed and board of
Fort Lafayette. The guard came from In
dianapolis, to which place the prisoners
were conducted from Louisville.

SocIABLE.-The editor of the Bangor
Courier has lately visited the seat of wars
where he found the regiments from Maine
in good and contented condition. At Bailey s
Gross Roads be says:
We could distinctly see the rebel sentinels
pacing backward and forward, and quite
large number OF rebel soldiers were collected
about the fort, evidently gazing at the res
serve pickets located at BaiIey's Cross
Roads, where we then were. Occasionally
when gentlemanly officers are on picket
duty, they have quite friendly chats A day
or two before we were there, the Captain of
a Michigan regiment waved bis handker,
chief, end two Virginia Captains came over
and they had friendly talk. They exchanged
cards, and returned. undoubtedly mutually
regrettiDg that they were enemies.

been issued. Five hundred thousand were
sent to Boston last week. The impatience
for returns to applications made upon the
treasury would lessen if bankers and mer
chants knew that three northern mails fire
quently arrive in Washington at the same
time. The postal service is jostled off the
track by the War freight. So great is the
pressure of business upon the Treasury De-
partmeDt, that Assistant Secretary Har-
ringtos's labor is now protracted to three
o'clock n the morning Over busLel oil
