earth aud that her muscles would
become rigid 20 quickly that
she was thrown from the
oed 10 the.ceiling. After blswinR up this
Dig balloon aud attempting to stuff /! down
The public throat, they kept silent until
Yesterday, when they wers compelled to
suck o pin, Ia the shape oil the Doctors
testimony, into the balloon and let out the

The hope expressed in yesterday morL'
RgGISTER thst tie successful candi-
date for me yacsnt Inspeotocship OF Hulis
should come from this c)tg must net De
construed too strictly. The work city
sas used in the sense OF '~neigh6oyhood
or Vicinity, sndincluded the county. AT
Ieas. one candidate resides in the county
outside the city. We refer to A. D. Gar
den, Esq, who has many warm friends IL
the city as well as the county. and we had
no intention whatever, IN yesterday issue
of ignoring his claims for the position. In
this connection it is proper to say that
NJ. l. W. Stephens ia % a new csndi'
date, but has been in the field fully as long
if not longer, ibsn any other aspirsnt for
the office.
