their organization by Capt. j. B.
Livingston. At the request of the
meeting, | ask u small space in your
columns to give publicity to the
same.
The meeting was we'll attended and
much interest manifested in its sue
cess. Fifty names were enrolled,
after which m election for officer 8
was held, which resulted as follows

3rd. Lieut.-M. A. Arant.
Lest l consume too much of your
valuable space, will omit the names
Of the commissioned officers
Rev. S. L. Holman was elected
Cha plain, and DR.. T. X. Keller, Sur
geon. I think this election gives
universal satisfaction. Capt. L. we'll
deserves the honor conferred in his
reelection. He is highly esteemed,
not for his intelligence and valor
only, but also for the concern he
manifested, and the sacrifices made in
The Interests of his company. It is
sufficient to say Of Lieutenants Har-
mon, Snidcr and Arant that they are
the right men in their right places.
The uniform adopted is very neat,
and will add much to their appear

This company was organized nearly
year ago, when the condition of our
country was indeed critical. Its OBJ
jects, however, wore not rs pro-
claimed by the usurper aud OK
Governor, and which he would have
the world believe. Not the intimi--
dation Of frccmon, or the abridgement
OF their rights, but selfpreservation
the protection of our homes and
those rights which ore regarded more
sacred than life itself. Those were
dark days, but we thank God the
scone has changed, and that to-day
we meet under circumstances so fay-
orable!
We are happy in the belief that the
bitter. seeds Of corruption, enmity and
discord which have been scattered

mony and peace will, ere long, reign
supreme. Werejoice that the dark

bail, but was informed by the Justice
that he would not receive less than
$4,000 bonds, with the best ofsure.

He then commenced complaining
Of his arrest, and stated that it was
hard that he should be made to ans

everything on the shoulders of poor

THE REI.1EF

The county is not issuing any relief
save in cases of actual suffering, and
then only to bridge over the time until
supplies can arrive from the Governor
or other sources. Relief issued by the
county is by the County Commissioner
of the District in which the relief is
needed. Capt. Mills will issue at Bige-
low or Worthincton as parties prefer,
Mr.. Robinson at Worthington, and Mr..
Condo at IIersey.
Parties desiring relief must apply to
the Supervisors of the town and make
their statement, no affidavit being re-
qulred. These statements will be sent
on to the Governor and the relief will
lie sent direct to the parties asking aid
and delivered at the most convenient
railroad station. The machinery of 4
committee in each county is thus dis
pensed with.
