there came a tapping, as Of some one gently

THE USTERRIFrED IN CouNcIL.-On Tuesday, the
Sd inst, the constant button-holing, and " VIII
YOU take somcthing!" assured US that there was
something going on not on the bills. The
elongated visages end constant twitching about
of certain WE'LL known expectants for county
honors "made assurance doubly sure" and let
us partly into the secret. We resolved to be up
to the times, and accordingly engaged reporter.
In the evening our reporter, seeing Akereyds
Saloon brilliantly illuminated, repaired thither
with all possible haste. He found motley
group, gathered principally around the bar,
exhibiting unmistakable evidences Of deep
mourning for the "spirits" that We're wont to
hover around the aforesaid bar. The meeting
was called to order, and Mr.. BUrrERFIELD chosen
to preside. Our reporter Immediately pulled out
his reportoral tools, which attracted considera-
bic attention, and went to work taking notes.
Some fellow motioned'' that the Chair explain
the object of the meeting, which he did with
about fourteen Interruptions, and winding up
with the announcement that all but Democrats"
were expected to retire. This was a question of
considerable interest to our reporter, for he had

good for his "Democracy." After some dis
cussion the decision of the chair was so modified
as to exclude all but delegates. This attempt
to gag us had the desired effect, for reporter
was so unaccustomed to the usages Ofhis Demo-
cratic" brethren on the frontier to leave in his
" other coat pocket" his credentials. With no
little chagrin, he left, not stopping to enumerate
the wire-pullers that were allowed to remain.
During the evening, however, he returned. re-
solved upon demanding admittance as a " men,

The fore part of the hall. The audience We're
being delighted with beautiful dissertation
on " Courtesy" after which they proceeded to
ballot, which continued sometime without any
result. During the balloting. the monotony of
the scene was broken by frequent illusions to the
whisky, none Of Which hints, we are sorry to
say, the candidates took. The balloting be-
coming irksome, courtesy" was again taken up,
and after considerable discussion, Courtesy
was ruled out. They then got along swim
minely with their business, after which they
adjourned without nary fight" The result of
their deliberations will be found in another

THE IL DEMocRacY."-A ratification meeting
was held at Taylor's Hall on the evening of the
4th inst by the Democracy" After some pre-
limnaries, Judge Hawkins was called out,
who INDUCED in TRADE against all that was
decent, and gave very strong grounds for ques
tioning his loyalty. lie evinced wonderful
interest in the pockets of the "dear people,
judging from the terrible ado he made over
the war tax levied by "these Black Republi-
cans" There was not ons single patriotic
sentiment in his speech, but a mass Of un-
truths, villifying the Administration and every
officer of the army, which was received by the
patriotic Unconditional Union, Compromise
Peace Coercion Anti Coercion Democracy
with rapturous applause. His appeal to the
Democracy to maintain intact their organiza'
ton was too much, considering the source, fol-
quite a number of Democrats present who were
patriotic enough to hold their country as par.

CITY FACTS AND FANCIES.
To our Friends.

Onte tItote We greet the people Of Junction
c.ty. Many months ago we left them FOR the
eastern counties Of the State, with the intention
soon to return but our stay has been prolonged
by circumstances over which we could exert no
influence. Where we have been, they used lis
well SO well that we shall have cause for fire.
qucnt visits there hereafter.
But we're once more in our old home, at our
old avocation only little more so, and pleased
beyond our power of expression. We must re-
turn thanks for the magnificent reception we
were greeted with upon our entrance into town.
AS the hour was late and the night quite dark,
we presume many had retired--a commendable
habit, (if it ia habit whicf we hope will prove
enduring. Had We space we would publish the
full proceedings of that eventful evening. To
those honest watchdogs" who gave ,,s a" deep
mouthed welcome " just opposite the old brewery,
We will not be forgetful. but repay them with a

kindly stopped the vehicle at the hotel door that

The worthy host, who wasn't up, but soon arose
and unloosed the fastenings of the door that We
might find shelter from the keen night air, We
shall ever remain under obligations anu to the
bcJbugs, who didn't trouble us while resting
from the fatieres CT our long ride, we consider
ourselves bound by ties of lasting friendship, but
we must take the liberty Of calling them HUN
BUGS for failing in lhd!r part of the performance.
The appearance Of Ger city has somewhat
changed since We left it. 1t has improved some,
but Hard Times" is stamped upon its general
appearance. Some of the familiar faces are miss

drudging away at their old trades and profes-
sions striving to increase their worldly store,
waiting with anxious hearts for that COOL time
coming" when they can lay upon their oars, .
and see the good results of a well spent life.
Now. gents, let's all shake hands and ladies.
just welcome smile ; and then to hard, hard
labor.
