Seneca, Maroh 28.-Soneca'8 municipal election yesterday passed off quietly. The following names, composing the ticket, were elected: Mayor, F. M. Cary; Aldermen. J. T. Lawrence, W. J. Lun ney, T. M. Lowery, Whltner Livingston. A better selection could not have been made, and our citizens are congratulated upon the wise choice mado. In view of the fact that the retiring oounoil has left notable and substantial monument? to its administration, it is up to tho counoll eleot to keep the ball moving, which, in the minds of a livo citizenship, is a fore gone conclusion. Yesterday, at the Sonooa Cotton Mills, Luther Hyde died from the effects of a wound made by George Thompson, of Newry, in an altercation wbioh occurred between these parties at the Seneca Cot ton Mill on Saturday, the 18tb instant. The Coroner held an inquest yesterday,, the verdict of the jury being in accord with tho above facts, Thompson gave up and is in jail. II. M. Richardson is building n large cistern in tho rear of the lot on which the Palmetto House is located, which will be used for sanitary purposes by the hotel. The larg? well supplies water for other purposes. It has been said that the traveling mon are "complaining that the hotel business is overdone-here." It occurs to us that they (tho traveling men) are the last mon on earth to discourage enterprises of this nature, knowing that in this, as well as other trades, competition truly is the life of trade 1 And as long as no kiok comes from the competitors we advise thom, m the language of brer rabbit, to "lay low and say notbin'.M Others say that business in other lines is over-done in Seneca. As long as there aro no failures and everybody seems to be making a comfortable living, we fail to see how business can bo ovor-done.

The grading done on the street loading to Walhalla, immediately in front of the residences of W. S. Hunter and ll. F.

Tho jouucil lowered tho shade trees on the ddewalks also, and torraoed the border of tho yards, finishing tho entranco with somonted steps. Wo hopo it will bo a consolation to these good citizens to enow that this street is now more city liko in appearance than any in town. ?Vo hopo tho council will now turn its it tent inn to other approaches to town.
