Our Foreman, without whos;e services whe cannot. go qui-te strailit in ihe oflice, has been necessarily absent in at tenlance on a sick brother for some two weeks pnst, and then thef I;uri/h comning in tapon us with its claims, just at this time, has caused the delay. This is our first failure to be ready fur distribution at the appointed hour adi we hope, under all the circumstances, that out readers w ill excese tile umivoidable delay. Our Frorcnan, ne are informed, will soon lie at his post, and thiings will then go on, we flatter ourselves, a little better than they have been ding for a week or so past.

Many persons, I mlay say hundreds in the District have requested me to o!ler again and they further said that they intended to run mute again whether I con.sented or not, and I have up to this time answered them that I could not publish myself as a candi date (though the od ius features of the law had been repealed) but yet if 'hey would run me and elect miia I would serve to the best ofomy ability. I hive m-'ide tis state ment of iacts to avoid further ini!stakes and luisrcuresentations. It is true that I have this present year administered two large esi 'en but not as O:d:nary or under any derelict law.
