New YORK, May 10-HOn. William

THE people Of the new county, named
Bell, are rejoicing as II each was bell
and was ringing in good cheer. They
are rejoicing over q second triumph,
achieved after long waiting and wTang-
ling with the few who were opposed to
them. They won by a twO.thirds
vote, which we think should be quite
enough to satisfy all the opponents of
the measure. They surely know what
they want, and since they are the peo-
pie mostintimately concerned, we think
they should be deferred to. Bell coun-
ty is a settled fact. Those hitherto
opposed to it ought to acknowledge the
corn and give up. Carping and grumb-
ling can accomplish nothing. We send
greeting to Bells.
