The interest taken was great, and so far as we know the election was fairly conducted by the managers, in whom every ouc has perfect confidence. As far as we have heard, the opponents of the tax accept the situation in good spirit, and will now look to those who have been victorious, to a faithful performance of their }>roiuises? to give us a railroad or to savo us Harmless in the matter of I lie bonds. Speaking lor onrself, we have no day of Judgment in store for any man purely hecansc of his position on the railroad question. We yield to every man the rislit which we claim for ourKoir_tii<> rifriit, t<> his own ooinion on all ones tionsof public concern, hut when ? question lias been decided, we think it tlie duty of each Individual to sustain the community. For tiiis reason tlie 1'rc.w an<l Itaioirr bus 110 more opposition to the railroad bonds, and. if we pet the railroad, we presume tlie Press and /tinner will pay Its mite of taxes as cherrtul* Jy :is will the most urdent advocate of the measure.
