a FEW PLEASANT Personal AND Po-
LITTCAL PARAGRAPHS.-In hopes of re
moving the pressure" from neighbor James,
of the Herald, in regard TO our candidacy for
the office of County Treasurer, we ''ift the
veil and present the following generous
notices clipped during the past few weeks
from various exchanges, one of the most
hattering of which is from the pen of our
former townsmau and fellow typo, JAS. a.
hittell, at present employed aS local editor
of the Ementon Recorder. All the notices
appended are exceedingly complimentary,
and while they may render aid i'm
curing the prize sought for, it is very graft
, lying to know that there are some members
of the profession who esteem us more highly
+ than the Herald man would have the: world
believe he does though he don't believe it
himself. Here are the kind words of good
cheer, for which our sincere thanks are
heartily rendered:
