swer on General Carlos J. Sto}brand
where he was employed as gauger, or
something of that sort, at Govern
uent authorized distillery near Sen

Colonel Gary in speaking of his
ciSit to the quarters of the Republt-
can aspirant for Congressional hon>fs,
in the Third Congressional District,
said that he was treated with all the
politeness and attention which one
gentleman could expect from another.
On the 2Sth instant Mr.. Aiken was
notified of Mr.. Stolbrand's Intention
to take testimony. From the prompt
ness with which the work has con-
meuced, we have no doubt that the
full time. forty days, allowed will be
used in q vigorous search for lrregu
larisies in the recent election. The
law regulating contested cases will
give Mr.. Stolhraud forty days from
the date of notice, the Goth after
that. Mr. Aiken has forty days IN
which to refute the testimony taken
in Nlr. Stolbrapd's Interest. St"l-
brand then has ten days to reply. So
that niuety days from the 10th OF
January the whole of the testimony
must be taken and sent to the Clerk
of the House of Representative st
Washington.
Stobraud has served the following
notice of appointments, &C., on Col.
Aiken:
