We learn that committee from the
Prohibitionists waited on JAS Franklin
Bowman, Esq, Of Mt Sidney, yesterday,
to learn from him whether he would ac-
cept the nomination to fill the vacancy IN
their Legislative ticket occasioned by the
resignation of James III. Callison. Esq.
He responded favorably and very deter
minedly. He will be one of the candidates
of that party to stick. The ticket as now
constituted Hildebrand, Shelton and Bow
man-is a strong one, and the personal
worth of the candidates as men and citi-
zens will command a support outside of
those who are in full sympathy With the
Prohibition movement.

plumber of dealers on change but no dis position
was shown to trade in wheat under the present
aspect of the market at outside points 1t

the market, making them cautions in leading,
resulting in little doing on the board. Quota

much demand. Oats were without change ex-
cept that May &c cent off, of No. ,
