Wednesday of this week James DOak
was arrested on charge of adultry with
Mrs. Philip Sova, the complaint being
made by MIR. Soya. Friday he was
brought before Justice Sammons sfOT
examination but was discharged, Prose
cutting Attorney Brown considering the
evidence not sufficient to sustain the
charge. This morning Doak was arrest
ed by an officer from Emmett county for
like Offense committed with the same
woman, SOva having started for PetoS-
key as soon as DOak was discharged by
Justice Sammons and entered a COM
plant there. Whether or not the evidence
to be produced in this case is any strong

Messrs. Mcdonald & Hendrie, the con-
tractors for the extension of the jackson,
Lansing & Saginaw railroad from Gay
lord. its present terminus, to Cheboygan,
have sublet the contract for the section
of ten miles at this end of the line. We
have been unable to learn the name of
the sub-cOntractOrs, but understand they
are making arrangements to commence
work at once. We have been in inform
ed that they have arranged with Mr..
Joseph Rife to board 25 or 80 men and
expected to have had them on the ground
last Thursday, but for some reasOn.or
other the force did not arrive. This
force, we understand was to erect camps
on Mr.. Thomas Richardson's place suf-
ficient to accommodate a large force
which were to be set at work on quite
extensive cut near there. 1t is likely
the work will be commenced some time
next week. The contract for furnishing
the ties for the entire extension has been
sublet by Mcdonald & Hendrie to Mr..
John Mckay. of this village.

Early on the morning of the 20th, while
Off Providence bay, on the south side of
ManitOulin island, the sea was so heavy
it broke through the engine room, put
ting out the fires. The ship became un-
manageable and remained in the trough
of the sea taking in water until noon,
when she sunk. AS she filled her upper
works were forced away, carrying the
life boats away. The five men named
succeeded in releasing one of the boats
from the wreck and got into it. They
then tried to rescue the others, who were
clinging to the upper works, but were
unable to reach them. When the hull
went down the remainder of the crew
were standing forward by the bow and
made no apparent effort to save them
selves. After witnessing the wreck the
life boat containing the five persons
made for Providence bay, distance of
20 miles, from which place they went by

That Freight Question.

Quite a cOmmOtion among our busi-
ness men was caused by the fact that
the Northern Transit company had ad-
vanced their rates of freight upon what
merchandise, supplies sc. the City of
New York and Milwaukee brought last
Saturday, nearly every merchant in
town having more or less on board.
Considerable talk was INDUCED in, the
burden of which was that the merchants
of ChebOygan was being imposed upon.
The first of the week one or two of the
merchants replevined their goods, but
most of the CONSUMES have paid the rates
charged, which were about double sum-
mer rates, and taken theirs. Some few,
among them some of the best patrons of
the line, expressing themselves perfectly
satisfied with the rates charged, and
that the company was getting no more
than they were justly entitled to con-
sidering the weather, and the extra risk
they took and the expense the company
went to in order to get the goods from
Detroit here. Capt. j. V. Tuttle, an
agent of the company came up on the
Milwaukee and has been spending the
week in this section. He says the COM
pany was obliged to send the City of
Concord, one of their iron clad steamers
in advance of the other steamers to
break the ice across Lake st. Clair, a
distance of about twenty miles, and that
unless they had done so the boats could
not have got through. and expresses
himself as being surprised that Cheboy-
gan merchants should expect, under the
circumstances, their goods to be brought
at summer rates.

Success.

The wonderful success which has at
tended the introduction of DIR. Whites
DandeliOn Alternative, is doubtless due
to the fact that it an honest medicine.
and will perform all that is claimed for
it, and DIR. White must certainly have
great confidence in his medicine, for he
authorizes all druggists to sell it under a
positive guarantee, such as is given on
no other medicine i'm the market. 1t is a
specific for billiOusness, liver complaint,
fever and ague, dyspepsia, kidney dis
ease, rheumatism, and constipation of
the bowels, and as blood purifier and
renovator, it is positively unequaled.

What RiIed Him.

The following from the Chippewa
County News is what allied the editor of
the Democrat this week:
The ChebOygan Democrat, which COM
menced publication a little over six
months ago, and which proved itself to
be one of the most partisan, unreliable
and slangy sheets ever published i'm the
state, records crushing Democrat de-
feat in that county, and seems wonder
ing what struck the Democratic party
in that section, where republican vie
tory had never been known before. The
greatest obstacle which lay in the way
of Democratic success, and one which it
was impossible to overcome seems to us
to be such paper as the ChebOygan
Democrat.
Only this and nothing more.

The Saull Canal.

From the Chippewa County News we
learn that the Sault canal closed for the
season on the 18th of November accord
ing to notice, the last boat having pass
ed down on the 14th inst. The business
was the largest ever transacted in the
history of the canal. The canal opened
this year upon the 28th of April, the bus
mess season therefore being POP days,
against a season of PIG days last year.
The toll receipts were $14,594.S8, against
$41, 1856 ,63; gain of $3,2O9.25. The num-
ber of passages were 2, 893 against 1858
of the previous year; gain of 300. The
total tonnage passing the canal was l.
7S3, ,231, against 1,640,373 tons last year;
a gain of 142,S5S. And this, upon sea-
son IA days shorter than last year. Had
the exigencies of the canal work per-
mitted the canal to have kept open as
late as usual, the increase would have
been much greater. the paid passages
probably reaching fully 5000.

The Election Laws Sustained.

The Supreme Court of the United States on
Monday announced its decision in two cases
involving the consttvtionaity of the election
laws. As it appears to be an open question
with the Democratic majority whether they
VIII renew the attempts made last year to
nullify these laws by refusing the appropria-
tions necessary TO execute them, the present
action of the court is peculiarly interesting.
The two cases upon which the court has pro-
nounced are Of such nature that they bring
up for consideration nearly all the points in
the laws as to which there has been any dis
pute on the ground of constitutionality. One
was brought from the United States Circuit
Court for Maryland, and is that of five Judges
of election in the city of Baltimore. who were
convicted of hindering United States super
visors and deputy marshas in the perform
ance of their duties. The other is that of a
judge of election in Cincinnati, who was con.
victed of having violated state law relating
to the election of representatives in Congress.
The ground of appeal in each case is that the
law of Congress under which conviction was
had was unconstitutional in the second case
the special point is made that Congress can
not provide for the punishment of an offense
against state law committed by state Of
ficer.
The decision of the Supreme Court sustains
completely the constitutionality of the cleo
ton laws 1t declares the power of Congress
to regulate the election of representatives in
all particulars in which they may require reg
ulation; to do so by explicit and exclusive
enactment, or by the partial adoption of the
regulations made by the states to provide
for the appointment of federal officers to at
tend to these elections, and of marshals and
deputy marshals to see to their enforcement.
and to vest such appointments in the circuit
courts finally it declares the power of Con-
gress to provide for the punishment of any
person who shall violate the regulations thus
made by Congress or taken from state au-
thority. 1t is not easy to detect any point
that has been raised against the election laws
that is not fairly met by this decision.
