pa5-THE RESULT OF THE ELECTION
The smoke of the battle has cleared
away and the result ofthe recent Coun-
ty election is known TO most OF our
readers and gives satisfaction.
The hottest fight was made over the
Sheriff and Prosecuting Attorney and
the returns show that Messrs. Edward
Tearney and Geo NJ. Beltzhoover were
held in high estimate, n by the voters
of the County. Mr.. Tearneys majority
is 500 and Mr.. Beltzhooyers SS9,whlch
is very fattering to these gentlemen,
considering the efforts that were made
against them.
The gentlemen who so long filled the
offices of County and Circuit Clerks,
Messrs. II. A. Moore and Il. I. Brown,
under the old order of things, are elect
ed by handsome majorities.
.nT. JUO. l.. I'll VIII, TIC p'Ss|H' 49,
SCISSOR, is reelected to that office over all
his competitors, Mr.. Keplinger being
the next highest candidate.
Capt. VIM. II. Kable, an alumnus Of
the University of Virginia and gentle
man every way qualified, is elected
President of the County Court.
Messrs. r. II. Butcher and James w.
Shirley are elected members Of the
House Of Delegates,
Col. Jno. Blair Hogc is elected Judge
of the Circuit Court without opposition.
Messrs. Jno. w. Grantham and X. c.
Custom are elected to the State Senate
from this District, composed of Jetfer
sen, Berkeley and Morgan, the former
as an Independent candidate, defeating
Mr.. f. Willis Wilson, the regular nom
inee by 90 majority.
S. Howell Brown was elected County
Surveyor without opposition, Mr. Jno.
Hess having withdrawn.
The Magistrates elected in the differ
ent Townships, will compare tayorably
with those OF olden times. The Con-
stables elect are men that can and will
attend to business
The vote on the ratification of the
Constitution is 79l, 4 gain of y on the
call of the Convention. The question
of voting OIL the insertion Of the word
white, in the clause of the Constitution
prescribing eligibility to office, seems to
have been passed over without scarcely
73s for it and more than 1000 against
it. The voters overlooked the fact that
every ticket emitting that wordcounted
for the blacks holding Office.
The vote agsinst the County APP
preparations is u very large one.
