Eli Berlin, of Whig Hill, lost his
pocket-book containing a goodly roll
of greenbacks, and several notes, on
Saturday last. He was very much
cast down about it until he stepped
into his wagon to go home, and 10
there was the booklet. book, with con-
tents intact. Wen venture to say that
Eli never felt better since he received
the Democratic nomination for County
Commissioner.
The political machinery of this
county is somewhat deranged. We
have regular Republican, and a reg
ular Democratic candidate for Assem-
bly,, and an independent candidate on |
both sides. The friends of the regu-
lar Republican candidate think the
probabilities are that the plurality of
candidates will have the effect to in.
crease rather than diminish his maiori. |
ty.
May, Park & Co. have put up
very tasteful desk in their bank, out
side the counter, for the convenience
of the patrons of that institution. The
desk is of black walnut, supported by |
large brackets sawed in beautiful
curves, arches, convex and coneave
circles, all of which we're executed by
JAS. Hulings, who has taste for such
things and can get them up in good
shape.
-Chestnuts in small quantities are
now in market, and retail at five cents
