sixteen and twenty for each are meant"
had appointed recent Thursday evening
for the celebration Of their nuptials, but
unfortunately the young gentleman whopro-
cured the licerse failed to make his appear
ance with that important document, and af-
ter waiting long time, tie minister's pa
tience wore out and he departed. Another
clergyman WAS sent for, but owing to the
latencss of the hour and the inclemency Of
the weather, he refused to comply, and the
ceremony had to be postponed until next
day. In the meantime the person having
the license appeared, and in due time on
the morrow the minister was en-route forthe
residence Of the bride but on arriving on
the bahks Of the classic Hinkstoa Creek,
the food had placed an impossible barrier
in his way. Not to be thwarted this time,
however, one of the bridal attendants swami
the stream with the license, the bride and
groom mounted on horseback drew near
thewlter's edge The minister mountef q
stump, and from the opposite side Of the
stream, proceeded to solemnize the marriage
rites according to the statutes Of Kentucky.
Thus, says the Carlisle Mercury, were Jerry
Jewell and Hannah Shrout, both Of Bour.

their way rejoicing.
WANTING TO Get RID OF THE ELE-
PHAET.-The Radical party, with Jefferson
Davis Oh their hands, are like the man who
won the Elephant at rattle exceedingly
anxious to get rid Of him. The last attempt
was made in the so-called United States
Senate, on the 22d ult., by Wilsoa, Of Mas.
sadau. t., whointrod uced a concurrent reso-'
luton, which was ordered tS be printed
reciting that, whereas, Jefferson Davis was
captured by a United States military force
on May IL, 1865, and has since been held
N confinement as q prisoner Of State in
Fortress Monroe whereas, he stands charg-
ed with certain crimes whereof he has per-
sistently declared his innocence, and has BY
all means known to the law sought and de.
manded a speedy and public trial by due
process Of law, before q civil tribunal Of
competent jurisdiction; therefore, resolved.
by the Senate, ETC., that the longer condne.
ment Of the said Jefferson Davis without
trial, is not in accordance With the demands
Of Justice, the spirit of the law, and the
requirements Of the Constitution, and that
common Justice, sound public policy. and
the national honor unite in recommending
that the said Jefferson Davis be brought u
a speedy and public trial, or that he be re-
leased from confinement on bail OF on his
own recoknitAnce.

PATRIOTS OF THE REPUBLIC, TAKE
SIDES 1.-THE PLOT CONFESSED

The Chronicle Of yesterday announced:
III we reach the day of that election with
the constitutional amendments not adopted,
and Andrew johnson still acting President
Of the United States, there will not be wis
dom enough in the land to prevent another
fearful struggle"
This is said of the Presidential election
of the 9TH of November, 1868. 1t is
year from next November. The time, then,
Is fixed. Unless before that time the Pres
ident betrays the people by abandoning his
Office, and the States PROSTATE themselves
ia voluntary chains Of irreyocsble bondage
to political party, the sword n to be
drawn upon the constitution, civil Law is to
be subordinated TO military, all rights are
TO be abrogated, liberty is TO be abolished,
and this great nation Of freemen brought
10 irretrievable abasement before e hideous
and remorseless few Of armed despots =

TO THE COUNTY COURTS OF THE
STATE.


Do not fail to appoint Judges in all the
precincts at your July term. This is re-
quired to be done by the County Courts Of
each county, at the session next preceding
the election day, which is the lst day OF
August next. Code sec. Sal. The law is
not changed on that subject. If this be
neglected, as the law is amended in the
last franchise act, Sec. 10 page 81, the
power devolves upon the Commissioner Of
Registration Some have enormously sup
posed that the power has been taken from
the County Courts by that act. twill be
seen the Commissioner is authorized to APP
point in cases when the Sherifs by the ex-
isting Law could do so, and that was only
in casa the County Court failed TO attend to
that duty, or the persons they appointed
failed to act. See Code, sec. S42. What
ever may have been intended, the act of
the 25th of February, 1867, construed with
said sections Of the Code, admits of no other
construction-it is certainly plain--toc
plain for controversy.
