Of the Tim,s, and Mr. Benedict were applicants
Tor the appointment, and Mr.. Baxter, we pre-
sumo, adjusted the matter by giving ii to neither

we believe tho independence Of the press is al
way more or less sacrificed, when its managers
feed at the public crib
LRes CArrLs-The Baileys Of this town
shipped for market to-day (Monday) yoke Of
immense oxen which they purchased Of Gov
Smith The present siIs and weight Of these
cattle we have been unable to learn, and the
pric paid for them is ALEC q iCcret. 1t sre-
ported that the oxen weighed 1900 pounds a
year ago, but we doubt whether they will weigh
that nov. They are probably as large as any oxen
ever sent from the State, perhaps larger than
iny that have preceded them to Brighton.
