we tai it is i.om the pen Of Mr.. George
W. Bird, Priv,te Secretary of Governor
Taylor
The Jefferson County delegation in tho
Legisa ere will not suffer by comparison
With the delegation from any other county
in the State. They are each exceedingly
watch III of the proceedings of the Legisla-

and, as delegation, they exercise an iHlu

proud.
Our Senator, Hon. Walter S. Green, is
re- arded as among the leading members of

short absence from the Capitol, but he is
now in his seat and in active attendance on
his duties. While one of the youngest, he

Hon. Austin Kellogg, the member from
the second district has not fall to be Pre-.
ent at every sitting Of the session. He has
paid that strict attention to the business
transacted, that he knows not only what
he is doing himself, but what is being done
by the House, an extremely important gu ali
fcation in a legislator. He says little but
thinks a great deal. He carefully considers
every measure upon which he is called to
act, all the argument and considerations
in favor and against, and when he makes
up his mind as to any particular course Of
action there's an end oft and there is no use
to try to pettifog him into different course

his own convictions. Aud while he does
not pretend to have more legislative know.
ledge than any of his fellow members, YET
he has that good, solid, common sense that

on Agriculture. He was member of the
Assembly in 1850.

The Masquerade at the Linden House

that in these endeavors they admira-
bly, succeeded, insuring those in atten-
inc. Many of the characters represented
and costumes worn were bewildering in
their va 'iety and grandeur, carrying the
N nd back 10 the days of chivalry and
k ightbood, interningled with unique and
comic characters of the present period, thus
connecting III an interesting and amusing
manner the past with the present. Dis
guises among intimate associates, and in
some instances heads Of families, were most
complete, but before the close of the eve
ming the lost were found, and the former
statrs among friends and relatives were
resto ed The Masquerade broke up at a
late hour all feeling elated to the highest de-
gree over the happy triumph achieved by the
Hard Timers in their first Bal Masqpe.
