Thomas B. Megear as postmaster at
Smyrna expired last FRIDAY. That is
10 say he was commissioned on January
10th, 1855, but did not take charge OF
the Office until February Ith.
Tire candidates for the office up to q
few days ago, were L, Il. Megear, a
Regu ar Republican and Thomas Jeffer

Republic cans. A new candidate has
appeared on the scene, and be Is giving
the oher applicants considerable un-

member of the Regular Republican
Sats Central Committee and county
committeeman from this hundred. That
be stands well with Congressman Ball
goes without saying, and those who

he will secure the plum. In the mean
time, the fr ends OF Postmaster Megear
are leaving no stone unturned to secure
his reappointment. Former Postmaster
Jefferson seems to have large per

Republicans: and IL there was nc
