ed on Thursday 3lst ult. to meet
again on the 1st Tuesday of Janua-
ry 1865. At no period in the his;
tory of our Stateshave > subjects OF
more vital Importance to the people
come before Legislative body.
Right well have they been .consid-
cred and actede-upon. The large
Union Majority, keeping steadily in
view the interest of their constitu-
ents carried forward the business be-
fore them, with very little regard to
the winnings of. the few Copper
heads who after the adjourned ses-
sion will hardly be heard of, unless
to be condemned.
Prominent among the working
Majority have been found the Sena-
tor from this district Hon. Fl. S
Neal, and the Representative from
this County Hon Joseph Bradbury
They can point to their record,
without fear of condemnation. Their
constituents will proudly accord them
the praise their patriotic acts deserve,
and say to them, "well done, good
and faithful servants"
