Marshal Mcliraw, of Mt. was bound over to await the action of the grand jury in the sum of flood, for killing Clayton Being unable to jiive bond lie was returned to jail. We have heard Mr. 1,. Ietwiler spoken of as a candidate for the office of township treasurer.

Mr. I'etwiler's obliging disposition and gentlemanly manners are familiar to the public and he would make a fit successor to the present treasurer, Captain .1. M. Hiestand, who retires to handle larger sums. Few Lieutenant Governors have taken up the duties of the office under greater difficulties than Mr.

Kennedy and few-have performed those duties in a more statesman-like way than he. The Coal Oil dictator, who is chief among the defeated candidates from l-'ranklin, lias been silenced and the fondest hopes of Hamilton county boodlers have gone glimmering. The infamous gag rules that were made, for the purpose of hold ing the four frauds in their seats kave been declared a nullitv and the frauds were refused the privilege of voting on tiestions pertaining to their own election. When Clerk Vallandingham tried to usurp the rights of the President, the other day, he was promptly called to order, and told that he would be remov ed by the Sergeant at Arms if he did not attend strictly to his own business. The President broke the gavel in calling the house to order when some disappointed Democrats got unruly.

The Lieutenant Governor's grit and judgment is a cause for pride to the party that elected him, and no combination of schemers can override his authority. Transfers of Real Estate. W. lingers to Ferry Whitacre, r.ynchrmr;r, lot. C.
