Especially did this seem b the case with a number of your.g misses, 'ilisses who ought not to average very niany "tersaweek, bul who seemed anxiously tï?l in selecting boxes and arranging for ' la business- indicating, perhaps, that '.riay correspendonts" have struck a lead. ifTiOsiPSOS l'as not "struck ile'" he has ide a "ten strike," and the public daily tbank him for the increased accommodations. itsan office unrivalled in the State. L#-Tho8e of our citizens who have „moved to the city, or from one ward to anottier since the election of last Fall, will bear in mind that it is necessary that their janies be properly registered in the Ward . w),ch they now reside, in order to vote on jlonday next. Young men who have become „(a since the November election, must alj, registor their namea. The Ward Registratio„ Boards will bc iu session to-morrow, as ,'ollows : Ist, At J. B.

M. jfgThe Goldwater Sentind has ,„ article on the '-Newspapers of Branch Oounty," which is not exactly historically ooi reet. It does not give all the Sentinel changes. Albert Chasdler was not the snecessor of Ohandt-er & Stillman. Dr. tillmaK sold Iris interest to David WateuKiS, ome years since deceased, and the paper was conducted awhile by Chandler & JfiTRHMAX, Chandlèb being, s during the former partnerships, the business partner and Editor, Chandieb finally sold his interest to Waterman, and for some inonths after Chínplkk'8 connection with the paper ceased. it was run by S. K. emiisTY. as lessse. He, being spiriually inclined - not to themodern spirits towards which the Stntinel now leans - became irregular in the publicafion, and forfeited his lease, when Ma. WaTERMAJf sold the office lo Mr. Pojíd. The Stntintl was published just six years by Mr Pokd, he liaving fu!l control of its business dpartment, and being also solé and only editor, and at this time many pleasing remembrantes cluster around that period. He sold sotto 8. W. Dbigqs & Co... but to Henby C öilbsbt. who issned the 'paper iu that flrm's name, while he was the editor. About the Slar published at Braneh. it had mexistence of more than "a few months." It was sold by the Association to a Jf n. ColUe, and after hia death- we think in the' winter of 1839- was told to a company at Jonosville, out of which sale grew a law suit or two, as afterwards did out of a sale of the office at Coldwater. We beüeve the Stir onee isíued a Presidenl 's message, which the OhfcrMf hands - at Coldwater - had got halfin ! type when the stage from the east brought the gennine Vanüuren article, and caused considerable of au explosión.
