Towssuw ELection—We think there is not woffictent interest manifested in the township elections which are to come off to~ morrow throughout the county. Although itis but wtownship election it is important ~~ to the township, county aad State. The of» fives, antl especially some of them, should be Gilled by qualjfied men. Thus, for instance, we want good, gé-ahead Cullectors, who will collect all the revenue possible. Bat of more importance still are the offices of Assessor and Trustee. The levying and saving ‘of taxes depend upon these. The Assessor sliould be a first rate judge of the value of . property, impartial, energetic and determin¢d in the rosecution of his duty. The office is under egtimated by most of us. Yet it lies at the very fowndation of our revenue. Cit~ zens should pay attention to this office and endeavor to fill it with a competent man. Under the township law, the Trustees are general directors of township affairs. They supervise almost everything. It devolves upon them to perform many duties which if done improperly injustice results. Gener‘ally we ‘have good men announced for almost ‘every position. ‘There will be no difficulty in selecting a good ticket from among all the candidates on the respective tickets. Let us have no one elected who is in the least tinctured with the copperhead phobia. Mensquare up and down onthe Union question, ten who are not afraid to speak their sen« timente straight out, are what we want. Tue Trick.—The Gross Valley copper~ hesds have put on their township ticket two _ or three names that are on the Union ticket They have, also, added aname or two of good Union men. The trick isa tranapers ent one. It is toglaze over the object of their organization. 1t is to gild the secession pill ; to fool the people. A dirty little} trickster is at the bottom of it. Gawd."

Here the forest forms a canopy over bis head; there it opens, allowing the sunsbine to. disclose the secrets of the wilderness; while en either side the eye penetrates through beautiful vistas into the depths of the woods. Sometimes on a higher spot of ground, a clump of trees forms an island worthy of Eden. A chaos of bush ropes and creepers flings its gay flowers over the forest, and fille the air with the sweetest odor. Numerous birds, partly rivalling in beauty of color the passifloras and bignonas of these hanging gardens, animate the banks of the lagune while gaudy mnacaws per the loftiest. tress; and, as if te remind » t death is not banished from this scene of Paradise, a dark-robed vulture screeches through the woods, or an alligator rests, like a black log of wood or a sombre rock on the tranquil waters. Wellhe knows that food will not be wanting: for river tortoises and large fish are fond of retiring to these lagunes.
