Do;uos Of the Governor and Council.

1t was found yesterday, by mistake in the re-
turns of Damariscotta, (the votes for MIR. Carney
being returned for Franklin Carney, instead OF
Franklin l.. Carney) there appears to be no choice
for senator in Lincoln county. The Senate, how
ever can 20 behind the returns, and will promptly
give the seat to Mr.. Carney.

The Governor aud Council have the returns to as
certain for whom the votes were cast IN the case
of county officers but not in the case OF Senators

for representatives to the legislature which failed
to state the vote cast, and they have been called
| upon to complete their returns. Many OF the re-
turns are imperfect, and a large number do not

The question has been raised as to whether the
| REGISTER of Deeds in Oxford county, elected to
fll the vacancy caused by the death of Mr.. New
ell. shall receive Il commission for the two years
residue Of Mr. Ms term, for the full live years
and this will be decided at the next session. IL IL
