ising.

on the opposite bank Of the river, which
was some time since a vast sea OF water is

NEW REGISTRATION FOR WILSON
CoUSTY.-We hear it whispered around,
saws the Lebanon Herald, and the report
seems to be based on pretty good authority,
that we are TO have a new registration. Ii
will be remembered that just before the adj
journment Of the Legislature, bill was
passed ordering 8 new registration for Da-
wilson county. An amendment to this
bill was adopted, placing it in the power
OF the Governor to order a new registration
in any county he may see fit. 1t is, there
fore, under this amendment that our citi-
Eens sill be compelled 10 obtain new certi-
ticates.
REsIGNATIoN.-We regret TO state that
Hon. David Campbell, Chancellor for this
division has resigned. He accepted the
position with no intention to retain il /: but
his resignation, whilst it will not excite sur
prise, will cause universal regret among
the conservative masses of the people, 10
whom his course as an officer and a citizen
has greatly endeared him
