attempt to keep Leroy Woods in two Offices at

trivial matter of DR.. Fitch's appointment to
the Senate after the failure to elect in 1859.
He was elected in 1857, by the mob conven-
ton in which Mr. 'Two-ofices' Woods took
part though deprived of his seat before. The
Journals informant retained an impression,
from the talk of the time, that DR.. Fitch would
succeed Petit in Whitcomb's place, and, as
the matter was wholly unimportant, did not
stop to verify his memory. If there had been
anything material to object to, the Times would
hardly have confined its diatribe to this trifing
