de&th, In Bridgewater, on tlie 3d inst., of one oftlic oldeat, most prominent, and most respectcd citizens of tlr.s county, Hou. Daniel Huesos. To ïiiauy of our readers and to most of our older cltlzens lic was well known, and known only to be cstec-mcil. Doring hls loog realdence in tlie coon. ty he has served Üc public in various otlicial positiönè, and alwaya wltb credit to hlmself aud to the satisfacción of lila conItltuents. Besides having been a Justice of tlie Peace for ten twelve years, be has served two tenns in the State Senate, two u tlie Hous?, and ia each ol the tliree Constitutioiial Conveutions. He was also a candidato for Jndge of Probate in 1856, but beim; tlien, as ahoayt, a Dcmoerat, was tfefeated wltli the rest of the ticket. For some time be lias beta in feeble health, and his :leath was not entlrely anexpected. Our correspondent says ; "He died in the oomfurtlng hopes oí tlie Gospel." Ile will loii; be misgeel by his fellow-townsmen, and at the county gatheriugs of his poliücal associates. His age was G7 ycars. Col. llixsox was bom in the State o Neiv York, and came to thls State in 1826. Tbe elrctorsof NorthBeld koow tiioir own bosinesa an;l Deed no instrnction from us as to liow they shall vote to-morrow.- We have ouly to caution them againat believing any stories that the Toledo, Aun Arbur aud Northern Railroad is deud that Ypsilanti is tlie victor; and that it is useless for them to vote aid. "We ean assure tlicm that the company has no disposition to die, that there is a detennination to push the work, and that if the severa! tovvus in which electious are now callee! vote the proposed aid, the rond will be built. We trust, therefore, that Northfleld will not imítate York and put a club in the hands of Ypsilanti by voting no. A long hiiired individual and professor of the " tonosorial art," who has been stopping in the city for ome timo, succeeded a short time ago, by his " oily " inanner and persuasive tongiie, in galnlqg the confidence of a bfother "amcudinent" to the araouut of $25, whiah he was to hold for safe kecping.

Notwithstanding her gentle insinuations about some of our consiueiita being "sarcastic," we beg to assure her that not a bit of "sarkasum" was iutended ; it isn't our '-best holt ;" and, besides, just jthink of such an adniirer of woman, such a .dcíender of lier rights- as zee umlerstand tUsm, - being ■'sire.istic" at her expense, íío, never. "Patricia." It isa't in us.
