THE issue made between the mayor O Rockville and the coordinate branches O the city government over the appoint ment of commissioner of public works continues. The mayor sticks for a par liamentary principle, and blocks. tht wheels against choice. The result seems to be serious loss of his overshadowine influence within his own party. In fact it is said that at the present time any move to change the name of Rockville ts McNerneyville would surely miscarry.

 \ WOULD invite the attention to holders of my photo cheeks as to my rates, so that there may be no mis- understanding. There seems to be in- quiries regarding the number of sit tings I give with the check system It is my rule to give one sitting and an extra charge of 50 cents for all re- sittings, and it is my custom to make all the sittings required by the most fastidious customer for $3.50
 As it has been misunderstood by some, I have concluded to compro- mise with all who have checks. By pa ying50 cents extra I will make as many sittings as is necessary. This price is very much below my regular rate, and I am convinced that 1t will meet with your hearty approval I must admit. that where there are more than one sitting the chances are very favorable to getting better results. My terms are, then, $250 for one sitting only, or by paying 50 cts. extra l make as many sittings as is necessary to please, and secure the best effects.
 Very truly yours,
 c. M. BOLTON. SPECIAL!
 As there are great many that have been unable to secure tickets, have concluded to give every one an oppor- tunity to secure tickets next week Mon- day, Tuesday and Wednesday, at my rooms. If unhandy, enclose one dol | lar, and I will send check.

 IT has been many years since repab- lican congressman has been nominated from Holland County, the last instance we believe being when Judge Loomis was the successful candidate in 1858 and 1860. It is high compliment now, when from all parts of the district comes suggestions of the name of State Treasurer Henry for the candidacy next November. The coun- ty is too small to press it's claims against Hartford county, but the district can well afford now to concede, as 1t seems likely to do, the honor to a capable and popular man. MT. Henery is most thorough going business man, as shown by his un- precedented record while in charge of the state treasury. He is gifted with good sense, and the ability to express his views in clear, concise manner. In congress he would be working member, never 8 drone. He is well-known all over the state, pal ticularly in the 1st district, and because of this his sterling qualities are we'll understood, and will secure him 8 strong support if he be made candidate. Hartford county will do itself honor to adopt him as her candidate, and make the thing unanimous.
