There are several college men among
them, there being more college graduates.
it is said, than on any previous Maine Gov

several BOwdoin men among the number.
Mr. 3urleigh has exercised great care and
judgment in the selection of 50 many men.
The Governor with his staff have accepted
invitations to attend the follow ing receptions
one at Augu,ta, (two in all probability; one
at Togus, probably on Jan. l7,h; one at
Portland on Feb. 7th one at Lewiston on
Feb. Nth.
1t is probable that the Governor and staff

Military tailors B. +. Haley & Co, of

The accounts of ex Clerk of Court Leigh
ton are found to be some Sol, 900 short. and
the deficiency may De still larger rs the
work of examination is not yet completed.
The accountants are wading through volumes
containing accounts for twenty years. The
statement was made BY friends of Mr..
Leighton, and the fact was acknow lodged by
him that he knew nothing of bookkeeping,
and that any discrepancies were due to mis-
takes and not crime.
An expert examination of the books, how
ever. show that l. .ignton's shortage is not
wholly due to his system of keeping accounts.
which was loose, and which would in itself
lead to error.
