Mr.. Geo. B. Sharp, willie moving some
goods last Tuesday met with quite an ac-
cident. His team ran away, and in their
progress ran off the bridge over the deep
gully in the north west part of town, near
MIR. L. W. Nash's residence. Though
the horses, wagon and all fell from six to
eight feet, and as we are informed the
wagon with its load of furniture, &C.,

slightly damaged. The furniture was
somewhat demoralized. 1t was certainly
fortunate that no more damage WAS done.

CITY ELECTION.

At the city election last Monday there
was but little interest manifested and up
till noon there was but one ticket in the
field. After dinner another ticket was
brought out, but it was too late in the
day for it to catch up with the first one.
Notwithstanding the fact that there is
over five hundred dollars in the city
treasury there seems to have been no one
wanting the Offices. 1t was the dullest
election day we have ever witnessed.
The following are the officers elected for
the ensuing year:
Mayer. c. NJ. Simpson; Probate Judge,
John Paxson; Councilmen, J. L. Wood
in, W. \. Cowan, DR.. S. Tozer, E. p.

ID. c. Haskell OF Lawrence, was in
our town this week and during his stay
made The REGISTER one or two calls.
Mr. II. is favorably spoken of in many
of the Southern counties in this district
as the Republican nominee for Congress,
and he is the almost unanimous choice
of the northern counties for that position.
If nominated he has the ability, the will
and the energy to make a vigorous and
successful campaign, and he would rep
resent this district in Congress with
credit to himself and constituents.
