II. c. CEARK.-Among the candi-
dates announced is II. C. Clark, of this
city, for Register of Deeds. Some
nave supposed this is Mr.. Clark, Of
Center, but this is not the case. II
G. Clark has been a resident of this
city for many years, with the excep-
ton OF short intervals in the past two
or three years. He was q faithful SOL
der during the late rebellion, is a
plasterer by trade, and a man of un-
exceptionable private character.
Should the choice of the people fall
upon him we have no doubt but that
he will acquit himself creditabiy in
the discharge of the duties of the Office.
RAILROAD WAR.--On Monday bill
was posted abort town by the MIX T.
folks announcing round trip tickets to
st. Louis, to visit the Fair, at SIS.
Immediately agent Lakin came ont
with poster cutting the price down
to $l4, and then ensued a war which
was "red hot" till Tuesday night, and
the tickets gradually came down,
until they reached the surprising
~ low price of S5 for the round trip,
the regular price being about $35.
This run between the two roads created
the greatest excitement, as well As a
good deal Of fun and satisfaction TO
the people. The whole town was talk
ing st. Louis, and it looked as though
our city was going to be depopulated.

pair OF fairbanks scales, and, loading light
wagon with them, made over the long wooden
bridge so familiar to all who know Springfield,

OF the broad interval on the other bank, over
