AS this gentleman is supposed not to be q candidate for reelection. there are a number of aspirants already announcing for the place Nearly every county has an avowed candi- date except Bradley. and We see no reason why we should be left cut, when we have fine congressional tim Der in the person of Hon.

 We have already four men in this, the new Seventh congressional dis trict, who say they are candidates for congress. They are certainly exceed ingly previous in the announcement of their plans.
