The ambition of the leaders OF the
Democratic Party to secure office Is
pretty well manifested in the scramble
at present going on in this place, over
Che few Offices in this County and Dis
trict under the control OF the President
and bis satellites. Since the meeting
OF the Philadelphia Bread and Butter
Convention, there has been quite
scramble among the various "dead-
ducks" that have been laid ont by the
popular verdict as unworthy Office
holders. to see which of them should
succeed in securing an office by ap
pointinent
1t has been currently reported that
J. F. Charlesworth, one OF the defeat
cd and played out standing candidates
Of the Denecratic Party for office, had
been appointed to the office OF Collec-
tor of Internal Revenue in the 10th
District, and he has been besieged al
most day and night by crowd ofhun
CRY seekers, for the various po-
sitions under his control His CON-
mission, however, has not arrived, and,
on Thursday last, the "Collector' and
his would-be "subs." began to get un-
easy at the delay, and, after an excited
meeting of the expectant throng, they
determined to send special messen
ger to Washington to hurry the matter
up, and a messenger was forthwith
started. When he arrived ut Wash
ington he went earnestly to work in the
interest Of his employer, and rumor
pretty we'll authenticated, says th'
messenger was blandly informed tina
it was decided there would be nj
changes made for the present, in tn
10th District If this rumor shoul'
turn out to be founded on fact, ther

WEST VIRGINIA ELECTION.

The annual election for State of
ncers, members of Congress, and OF
the Legislature, came of in West Vir-
ginia on last Thursday. Gov. Bore.
man and the Union State ticket are
elected by majorities rising s,OOO.--
All three OF the Union candidates for
Congress are clected--Messrs. Hub
bard and Kitchen by about 1000 ma
jority, each. Judge Polsleys majority,
In the Hid District, is not known, but
there Is no doubt Of his election.
For all practical purposes, we may
say this election adds two members to
the Union majority in Congress,
Nessrs. Latham and Whaley, who now
represent the lid and lid Districts
are only half hearted Unionists, whc
frequently vote with the Administra
tion faction, and their constituents have
very wisely left them at home and sen
men of more decided convictions tS
represent them at Washington.
Our friends in Ohio County and II
the Ist Senate District we're beaten =
We expected defeat in Ohio County
but it seems to us Mr., Campbell ough
10 have been elected to the Senate.
The State has done very well, In
deed, and We congratulate our friend
over their splendid victory.

noticed the arrest ola negro named Wood
son Hill, who knocked down Justice Wade
while he was engaged in awcsting him.
lie was tried yesterday before the County
Court for horsc-stcaIing, and sent on for
further trial. 4 mule and cart which Hill
had @ in his possession at the time Of his
arrest had been retained by Justice Wade
until yesterday, when, in accordance with
HiII's request, they were sold 10 pay the
fees of his counsel. The purchaser had
not gone far with his mule and cart before
he was met by DR.. Walker, who claimed
them as his property. This was subse-
qucntly proven, together with the fact that
they had been stolen the day before Hill
was arrested. The Doctors property was
returned to him. The negro will now b"
tried on this charge.
