THE expediency of organizing bat
talon, to be composed of the military
companies in this vicinity, is being agi-
tated pretty strongly by the said compa-
MES. Inasmuch as the officers of the
4th Regiment rarely visit this part Of
the Regiment and take no interest in it
whatever, it is probable that permission
will be obtained of the Adjutant Gener-
al to establish battalion, consisting OF
the independence Guards, Manchester
Guards, Jesup Light Guards, and two
or three other companies from this part
of the District. If this movement is
successful, officers will be secured who
will interest themselves in the progress
ion of the battalion.

CITY ELECTION. = The proclamation
for special election, to fill the Office of
Mayor of the city, made vacant by the
death of Judge Roszell, will be found in
our columns this week. The election
will take place Nov. 9TH, Wednesday of
week after next. The time is short, but
long enough for all the canvass that is
necessary. From present appearances,
no sharp contest is likely to take place,
and the voters of the city will probably
have the opportunity to calmly make
choice of Mayor on his personal merit
and fitness, without partisan influence;
which is as it should be.

JOHN L. LOOMS, the former propri-
etor Of this paper, took his final depart
ure from independence with his family
last Friday, turning his face toward the
setting sun, and in the new world of Col
orado, proposing to take new departure
in life, and to repair his shattered for
tunes. The long residence of Mr.. Loo
mis- in Buchanan county, his close iden-
LITIGATION with its history, and the posi-
lions of influence and responsibility he
has held, always well and ably, make his
going from among us a matter OF more
than passing interest. He has the men
tai resources, training and knowledge of
affairs to give him prominent and infu-
entail position in any community in
which he may locate himself, and we are
confident that his talents will be recog-
nized in his new home, and that he will,
ere long, be found in position to make
efficient use Of his powers for the good
of the public. We think it is his inten-
ton, when opportunity offers, to resume
the profession of journalism, for which
he has exceptional fitness and ability
He has the best wishes of this commu-
nifty for his future prosperity.
