The ArOOstook Election Case.

The Aroostook election was closed by the
Governor and Council on Saturday. They decid-
ed unanimously that Mr. Bureigh had received a
plurality Of the legal votes cast for Senator in
that county; but the Council decided, to 3, that
MIR. Burlegh was Ineligible on account of net
being resident of the county. The Governor en-
tered his protest, on the ground that the Council
had no jurisdiction on the question of elig bty.
So that the summons to appear at the opening Of
the legislature may be issued to neither party and
the case Of Mr.. Burleigh and that of Mr.. Madi
gan will probably both be referred to the Senate
for decision.
In canvassing the votes for Senator. the Council
unanimously threw out the returns from Van Blu
rem and Eagle Lake plantations. on account of ia
tai defects in the returns. The throwing out of
Van Buren, may change the result in regard TO
several county officers, eecting Henry o. Perry,

where they used three or four field
pieces, which they charged with nails
and pieces Of iron. Buerra, like all
others, gives his peculiar version OF the
story that recounts the facts affecting
the death Of Travis and Crockett.
These two were found living, yet ex-
hausted by death-dealing, and lying
among the dead.
When Travis was discovered he gave
Mexican gold, and while conversing
with him Gen. Cos, with whom Travis
had dealt most generously when San
Antonio was captured by the Ameri.
cans, appeared. Cos embraced Travis
and induced other officers to join him
in asking Santa Anna to spare Travis
life. The President General sternly
refused. Then Crockett from among
the corpses, stood up, utterly exhaust
ed by weary, sleepless days and nights,
and by FIVE hours constant fighting.
Santa Anna was enraged beyond
measure that his orders were not ex-
| ecuted. He directed the soldiers near
him to fire on the two Texans. Travis
was shot first in the back. He folded
his arms across his breast, and stood
stifiy erect till bullet pierced his
neck. He fell upon his face, while
Crocket's body was riddled with bull.
