express an opinion On the Compromise

avoid the appearance Of attempting to
influence the action of Congress there

z Remarkable Hen.

Mrs. A. S. Sbeffler of this place has
a hen of a rather remarkable character
The hen commenced laying early in
F-busry 1876, and during the year has
laid 104 eggs, hatched three settings
of eggs, bringing out 81 chickens in
all, none of which died. The hen is at
her work of laying yet, and the pros
poets are fair for her getting in as good
q wears work this year as last.

REFERRING to our question of two
weeks ago, the Seneca AdUertfreT says:
1t asks, Ibid not the recount ordered
by the Supreme Court of Florida, give
Florida to Hayes by 209 majority"
As the Court has never ordered a re
count of the Presidential vote, We arr
surprised at this assertion.
Thin, Brother, very thin. A re-
count aoas ordered, which the State
Canvasers understood to include the
Presidential vote, and recounted it
according to to the rules prescribed by
the court, and reported to the Court
2O9 majority for the Hayes electors.
The tact that another count, was after
wards ordered with the Presidential
left vote out, does not change the fact
hat the recount was made under the
courts order, or that the result was as
we stated.
