York County Census.

IT, 10 NOT to be inferred that all the gentle
men. whose names appear below, are "candi-
dates'' for Congress. 1t is not even well es-
tablished that all of them are 'willin'." The
list embraces the names of residents of York
county who have been mentioned in connec-
ton with the nomination and whose friends
would gladly see them honored by at least
complimentary vote. Some OF them' HOW
ever, are well known to be taking actiVe steps
to secure the coveted honor. here Is Ihe
roll: Hon. Edwin b. Smith and Hon. Rufus
P. Tapley of Saco; Hon. E. FL. Banks OF Bid
deford: Gen. Mark Wentworth OF Kittery;
Hon. James NJ Stone of Kennebunk; George
C. Yeaton, Esq. and Hon. John ii. Burleigh
of South Berwick; Hon. George Goodwin OF
Wells; Hon. n. G. Marshall of York; Hon.
Nathaniel Hobbs of North Berwick and John
W. Lane, ESQ.,, of Hollis-with fifteen towns
to hear from! Old York is place
stthat none surpasses
"For honest men and bonny lasses,'
and she ought to be proud of the number of
her citizens who are capable of representing
the first district in Congress. There are dis
advantages, however, as well as advantages
in this soil so prolific of genius. York feels
as she always has felt, the embarrassment of
riches" 1t is hard to make selection among
so many men, any one of whom would I'M
doubtedly fill the position with credit to him
self and honor to his constituency. 1t is I'M
derstood, however, that vigorous efforts will
be made to effect an agreement before the
onvention,-which, by the way, is not yet
called, meets to decide on these gentlemen
claims. Meanwhile no stranger dares throw
a stone over the York boundary for fear he
may inadvertently bring down brace or
two of promising Congressional aspirants
Cumberland county occupies position of,
what the N. Y. World would call, 'benevo-
lent neutrality" in full confidence that the
problem will work itself out to satisfactory
conclusion by the time of the convention.

Political Notes.

Asks an Indiana journal-'How would if
sound for Democrat to shout, 'Hurrah for
Davis?" To which Republican editor re-
spends, ''Preix JEFF to it, and it would be
the most natural sound in the world" 1t is
just as likely that the Democrats will shout
'en, as that they will sing songs of praise
for David"

To the Editor of the Press:
Mademoiselle Nilsson completed the one
bundredth night of her opera performance on
tho o3d inst. and commemorated the event by
select
DINNER PARTY
on Saturday at Delmonicos, at which her
manager, two of her fellow artists-Miss
Cary and Brignoli = and a few of her
personal friends were present. The season
has been a brilliant success, artistically and
pecuniarily and will be prolonged by special
contract until the LIST of May, during which in
terval Washington, Baltimore and Philadel-
phia will be favored with brief visits from this
accomplished troupe. The fair Christine leaves
America early in May laden with substantial
trophies of her vocal triumphs. She will have
accumulated not less than
TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS
clear of all expenses during the twenty
months which will then have elapsed since
she landed ON our shores The Strakosch
brothers have also been handsomely rewarded
for their enterprise in engaging this great sing
er, and in securing an excellent corps of artists
to sustain her The risk and outlay have been
enormous but happily there have been few in
terruptions by sickness, the company has work
ed tremendously and the public has been lib
orally appreciative - so the campaign ends
gloriously.
The Messrs Strakosch cater to the public
next fall by introducing the old favorite
CARLoTTA PATTI
in concerts. Your own gifted contral-
to, Miss Cary, has been re-engaged, and
will prove valuable attraction to the new
combination. She not only possesses sympa-
thetic face and winning manner but her into
nation is perfect, her method faultless and hei
| execution superb
THE NEW CHARTER
will be passed by the Legislature this
week, not precisely as it was prepared
by the Committee of 20 but with fewer
alterations than might have been expected,
considering that Legislatures nowadays are
| composed largely of men who are of traficking
propensties. 1t was hard matter to persuade
members to make a clean sweep of aldermen,
heads of departments, &C., but the recog-
nized leaders of the Republican party in this
State have the sagacity to see and the good
sense to accept as 'tfixed fact the current OF
public opinion, setting with irresistible force
in the direction of honesty, economy and strict
accountability in all affairs of government.

latter having been killed and wounded. Gen.
Treveno, who was in command of the rebels
during the BATTLE arrived at Saltillo in an awful
condition. All of his force were either scat
tered or disorganized. He has, however, com
menced the formation of new force and is
gathering the stragglers. Gen. Treveno quar-
relied with Martinez about a month ago, the
former having appointed young lawyer as
Governor OF the State of San Luis Potosi, and
since that time these two commanders have
ceased all cooperation. The revolutionists are
generally demoralized and it is expected they
will evacuate Camargo and the whole border
very soon.
