REcAPIFULATIoN DY COUNTIES.

In the above 40S towns the aggregate vote
cast is 1Os S7S against LOG, ,101 in 1864. The MAJ
jority for Gen. Chamberlain is 27,77S, against
1858 for Gov. Cony in 1864 To the majority
Of Gov Cony add the majority he got from the
soldiers then in the field (2938), and we have a
clean net Union gain of 1887 votes
The towns to be heard from are the French
settlements in Aroostook and so small towns
and plantations in other parts OF the State
Their aggregate vote in 1864 was S0g7- stand
ing 1924 for Cony and 1898 for Howard. We
think their vote will be slightly increased this
year and that Mr.. Pillsbury will probably have
a small majority. The total vote Of the State
will foot up 10000 and Gen. Chamberlain's
majority will be 1850.

CommItted 10 jail.

The burglar and thief who broke into the
stables of j. H. Neil and Peter Rhodes on
Tuesday night, and stole the mare and har-
ness of the former, and the buggy and har-
ness of the latter, was arrested at Chilli
cothe by Captain McCabe, who accompa-
MED Mr.. Neil to that place. He was
brought to this city on last Wednesday
night, and yesterday had preliminary
examination before Mayor Bull. He gave
his name as Asa Reese. He waived max
ing any defense, and was required to find
bail in the sum Of one thousand dollars for
his appearance at the next term of the
Court of Common Pleas. Failing to give
the bail required, he was committed to the
county Jail to await the action of the grand
Jury on his case.

Ob.tructLons ON sldewalks.

Distractions on the sidewalks, andin the
streets, are nuisances In the daytime, but
especially SO at night, particularly If It'll hap
pens to be cloudy aud dark. A gentleman
complains that on Thursday night, in pass
ing along the north sidewalk of Gay street
between High and Third, he encountered a
huge pile of chips, and on turning up the
west sidewalk of Third street, between Gay
and Long, he ran foul of pile of firewoOd
corded up on the sidewalk. AS the gas
lamps, on these rainy and dark nights, do
not afford an extra amount of light in some
portions of the city, such distractions on
the sidewalks are annoying, not to say
dangerous. AS they are in direct violation
of the laws of the city, those causing them
should be made to remove them instantly,
or suffer the penalty. .-.--
