Gaylord, April 23. - The latest new from Atlanta, the county seat of Montmorency county, seerus to indícate that Lewiston will not aecure the county seat, which was voted to the latter place at the last election. It appears that the Lewiston people (Albert township) colonized a lot of voters besides rushing about 80 in the township from Waters. Judge Emerick of Alpena appeared before the board and induced them to throw out Albert township on account of gross frauds. This action of the board was unanimous with the exception of Mantz of Albert voting no. Mr. Avery of Alpena, who is largely interested in Montmorency county, donated a site for the new courthouse and also the brick for its construction, whereupon the board accepted his proposition and immediately voted moneys out of the treasury for the construction of county buildings.
