Hon. Osris S. Ferry, Of fNorwalk, L. S.

upon Gov Ingersol to appoint some one

In casting about for suitable selection,
to fill the vacancy occasioned by the

up. So far, then, cannot see but what our
county is in splendid condition, after all. We
have made wheat sufficient to do US two years

nave about as fine corn and cotton crops as
ever the county produced. Our farmers seem

pect, than ever before. Is 1t the Grange intlu-
