to provide, and the people came forward grandy TO
the work. The world looked on amazed at the

On Monday last, February Sd, the biennial
election for Representatives took place. 1t was
held ut the Court House, the polls opening at
8 O'Clock and continuing open till 5 P. N. The
Inspectors of Election were JONI MONTGOMERY,
Esq, Police Justice GEORGE ii. Luce, Esq, Tax
Collector, and w. Jas. SxITB, Esq, School Inspec-
tor, under whose immediate supervision. the
registering of votes and also the ba~llDting were
conducted. --A -4
From Z till 8 O'Clock was occupied with regis
tering such voters as presented themselves, and
Mt the latter hour the b~alloting and the ex-
element of the day commenced. Stump speak
crs were on the ground urging, in not very gen.
tlemanly language, the merits Of their respective
candidates, and denouncing their opponents.
Good feeling and mirtb, however, prevailed,
though in one or two instances the crowd became
rather rowdyish. The pressure at the polls was
50 great, from 10 O'Clock till 2 or 3, that it was
impossible to gain entrance to the ballot-box only
after the delay Of an hour or two, and in many
Cases Of several hours.
The day was rainy, wet and very disagrccable,
yet, notwithstanding the rain and mud, the
crowd around the polls continued large and en-
thusiastic, listening to the harangues Of the Va
rious speakers. About 4 O'Clock the voters began
to fall OF, and during the last hour but few
ballots were received The rain evidently lad
the effect Of preventing some residing in the more
remote districts from coming into town, while
others, who came in, unable to get to the ballot-
box, went away disgustcd with the performance.
At 5 O'Clock the election closed, and tile votes
were counted. with the following re-ult.
