The Election ON Monday.

The Election on Monday.
Below we give, as far ~ heard from,
the returns from tins county. AL
though too meagre TO allow us to Judge
in regard to the entire ticket i'm the diff.
ferent towns, yet enough has been re-
ccived to show thow that we have
gained two Supervisors and lost one.
We have got about ont of patience
with our friends throughout the county
for their remissness in not sending in
the returns AS the matter has been con-
Quoted for the last four years, we have
frequently heard from the whole State,
and, in fact, from nearly every other
State, before hearing from our own
county. This is wrong. 1t mot only
disappoints us, but it also disappoints
large class of our subscribers who
depend upon the paper for the returns.
Ii some one in each town would see TO
it that ticket, with the vote each can
didate had received marked upon it.,
was mailed to us the morning after
election all this difficulty would be OBJ
waited, and we would be enabled to
furnish our readers the full returns in
our first issue after election.
SILVER CREEK.-In this town We
elect the entire Republican ticket, by
from 90 to ll2 majority. Daniel Blsh,
Supervisor. The Democrats made a
desperate effort to create split in the
Republican ranks by calling a Union
caucus, inviting "all who lored the
Union and wished to crush this mon.
strous rebellion" to meet in caucus " at
one O'clock" &C., one hour previous
to the time fixed for the Republican
cancus. 1t didn't work. They met
at the hour specified and adjourned un-
til after the Republican caucus was
held, when they again met, and nomi-
mated rs traight Democratic ticket,
heading it, however, Union Ticket"
1t was defeated by the abovemajority.
