Honston's Fantastic Figures.


According to the eficial returns of the
late election in this State there were cast
for Congressman Martin IA 967 votes and
for Judge Houston his competitor IA, 1888
votes, while Jackson, Greenbaoker, re-
oeived 81 votes. Yet according to Judge
Houston's marvellous notification of his
determination to contest Mr.. Martins
seat, 8. 700 voters who desired to do &c were
prevented from voting for him while 9 800
voted for Martin who had no right to do
so. This is the exact count of the
Now, If this be the case, under such an
election as Judge Houston thinks ought to
have been held, he would have received
