ALL efforts to get few news items this

TIM Letters. We give up the
greater part Of our space on the out
side Of this issue, to the letters Of &C.
ceptance of Tilden and Hendricks,
believing rs we do, that most Of our
readers will be glad to pcrusc them in
full. Comment upon them would be
unnecessary. as the intelligent reader
will form his own opinion of each one.
To say that the letter Of Mr.. Tilden Is
one Of the ablcst Of the kind ever pre-
seated to the American people, would
be stating that, which every candid
mind must admit. Althtu ugh not so
long, or so minute in details, the let
ter Of Mr.. Hendricks stands out bold
ly as the expression on public affairs
Of an honest and able statesman. We
trust that all our readers will peruse
them carefully. It.would amply re-
pay them.

IF there is town Of It's size in the State
that can get up more excitement over a
petty election than Somerset, we would
like to hear from II. Monday, Sheriff, a
Constable and a town Marshal were elect
ed, and the usual amount Of whisky, quar-
reling aud shooting was INDUCED in. The
aspirants for Constable were Epperson, the
present incumbent, who is Democrat, and
John Love, Radical. They are brothers
in-law, and, being we'll versed in each 9TH
ers mean points, they did not hesitate to
give them to the public. Love was princi-
paily supported by negroes, who regarded
him as their special candidate, they hav-
ing, in Convention assembled, called on
him to bear their banner. Scores Of ne
groes from the railroad we're drummed up
for the occasion, and voted as largely as
they had, no doubt, done, less than six
months before, in Virginia. Toward the

the Far West for an indefinite period
Of time? Il seems so, indeed, from
the way in which we have been and
still are, fighting the Sioux tribe. 1t
