The County Canvass.

We print this week tabular. statement
Of votes poiIed 10 this county at the late
election. Tie board commenced can
wasting last Tuesday, but ewing to some
irregularities in the returns from the
town of Clifton. the board adjourned
without completing the canvass. The
Clifton returns were sent back for cor
rsciion.
The statement published is not official,
though we believe it to be correct. We
shall publish it officially next week.
The returns from ''gaIIant little Isabel
were on hand, but The board recognized
no such town. and the votes were not
canyassed. Eight votes were cast in the
town.
We sincerely hope to see this bone
of contention" removed before another
election. If the action OF the county
board, uniting HarIlaHd and Isabel, Is
not considered just and legal by the citi-
zens Of those towns. let an appeal be
taken and the msiIer brought before the
Circuit Court Tor It's decision The cues

allow, to promote the interests of Pierce

done has been satisfactory 10 every one.
is highly improbable. and we did not ex
pect it would be. That we have labored
honestly, however, without prejudice or
fear, no one will dispute. The future
coE1Ict Of the Journal may be safely
Judged from its past. while under our
management.
One year ago we came 10 Pierce county
for the sole purpose of publishing the
family paper" (s2 90 per annum, in
advance.) Our reception by the citizens
Of the. county, has been characterized by
kindness aud generosity, and we are not
sorry We cane.
Finally, one year ago we invited our
patrons, and every body else, 10 give us
call when convenient. Many have done
so. and we trust that no; few firm,
enduring friendships have been formed.
To day we renew the invitation, and
most cordially invite all to
