Tlw ink was sctircely di-y<Hi our edilin last week when the smiling face of Mr. John McArthur, merchant of Priceville, pr..jected itself through our s.inctum door, and during the course of a pleas.int conversiition which followed, the fact was ii'.adj reasonably plain t.o our mind that Mr. McArthur is iu the Held for the reoveship of Artemesia. In fact he cm pliatically stated this to be the case. t)iie ciunot tell what may turn up before nomination day, but in any even: Mr. McArthur ia iu the Held to stay, and as be has several times before been tried in the capacity of coniicillor and not found uaniing, he w.ll i.o doubt make it inter- e.<.tfng for his opponent or opponents, ^whoever he or they may be.
