THE ELECTION.

The election in this County passed of
very quietly and without any disturbance.
The vote in the county for the consttu.
40" ss a nttic larger than that polled for
convention. With three exceptions the
convention nominees were all elected.
Uncle Ed. Scott beats both of his com
petitors for Clerk, George Gross is
elected Assessor--having seven competi
tors ID. H. Creekmore County
Judge. who had two competitors. These
three were independent candidates. The
great struggle was for Sheriff. Most of
the Thomason democrats in this town
ship combined on Mr.. Grady, the radical
candidate, and gave him here l73 major
ity, and but for their votes for him, Win
fry would have had 200 majority in Van
Burcn township. twas trade between
democrats and republicans to draw votes
for Grady for votes to be given in return
for Thomason. They both got hand.
somely rebukcd And Mr. Grady feels
his defeat no more than the very same
Thomason democrats, who could not un.
der any circumstances vote for Wiltshire,
on account of his radical record. With
their own hands have they stopped their
own mouths.
The election Of Hon. Jesse Turner to
the Senate, by the large majority of S59
in the District, is gratifying indeed and
is a signal rebuke to Col. Locke, after
having his name before the convention
that nominated Mr.. Turner. In this
county the old Thomason-fght was
fought over and was used against Mr..
Turner and lost him al the votes that
the leading Thomson men could control.
But nevertheless he has the hands some
majority Of 257 in the county and his
own township, Van Buren, giving him
2Io majority.
We never knew before so many vare.
ty Of tickets and SO many candidates..
And we are more thoroughly convinced
that the only safety in the democratic
party is sticking closely to her conven.
tion nominees. Wise politician will gather
a salutary lesson from the election in this
county on Tuesday last.

in one OF Peninsular Courts regarding the value
OF the 'checks" which are given 10 oyster packers
and fruit pickers, to show the extent and charac-
ter Of the work performed 10y them, and which be-
fore having cashed, they frequently trade of for
goods and merchandise. The case is as follows:
Messrs. Cook & Zel, large strawberry growers,
issued number OF counters, indicating The num-
ber of quarts Of strawberries picked by the holders
OF them, These checks were taken by some mer-
chants in the neighborhood, for merchandise, who
sued Messrs. Cook 4 Zell in thei own names
The merchants, Messrs. Dryden, of jamestown,
obtained judgement before magistrate Cook &
Zell appealed. The Court reversed the judgement,
and held that these counters did not cntitle the
merchants 10 recover upon them, except where
there was contract, express or implied with the
merchant; that the grower would redeem hem; or
unless the picker, 70 whom the counts were given
had made written assignment of his claim for Ia
