of "Natt Head, ' was voted for under ... . lulrtN , ,,, i41.,ini flr ,bis

thcMattcr name for the Slate Senate.
There wa no election by the people,
there King three caudidates, and the
Constitution of New Hampshire re
piiting a niajority of all the vote lor
election Now the Constitution of the
Sftate ropiins the Governor and Couu
cil to "exaruiue the ieturns'(official re
turns as mvle by the Tow n Clerks) aad
summon Mich as "appear to be elected."
Hut the Governor and Council, as is
claimed by ihe Republicans, assed be
yond the directions of the Constitution
and not only decided that Natt Head
waa not elected, but that all the votes
cast for biui were blank aud not tube
counted, and that Head's opponent waa
elected, and so summoned him to ap
pear at Concord on the first Wednesday
in June. '
There was another case in another
Senatorial District on this wise: The
three candidates were Todd (Rcp.1,
Proctor (Dem.) and lk-eriog (Indepen
dent). The Constitution requires that
a man to hold a seat in the Senate must
have lived in the State rre years,
which provision made Deeriag ineligi
ble, he having resided there only four
jftLT, Hul the Governor and Council,
having der ide! that the votes for Dccr
inp were blanks, ami Proctm having
more vote than Todd, iU decide!
that Proctor was elected.
Now, therefore, the question raised
is whether lie Governor and Council
had a riarht tn consnler the question ef
the eligibility f Heed ami IVering at
all. It claimed by the Republicans
that they had nothing to do bwt to ex
amine the o foetal letarns and report to
the Fenate the facta as show n bv then;
aad that it was not within their func
tion to coaaiJer the juration at Urad'a

Harry' Hingham is the leader. litis,
as is his brother, a member of the pk--eu't
legislature, is a lawyer of uixiies
tioneu eminence, and a man of ge.at
abHitr. Hefore llw war be wu. a
straight-out Democrat of the must v

Herod in delence of the South, aid
special Smthein measures; swalloajig
the worst measures of Pierce and llutb
auan. He ia to New Hampshire what
Bill" Eaton is to Connecticut, with
more br.uns. The sjecial meat iu tht
particular cocoanut is that Harry want
to be elected U. S. Senator uext year
in place of Crngin, ami he takes this
method to trig any measure of thcjrcs
ent Legislature which might facilitate
Republican ascendancy next year.
Weston, the present Democratic Govei-
nor, U a quiet, pleasant gentleman, has
been liked where he is best known, was
a civil engineer, and has once or twice
been Mayor of a Republican town,
and waa a war Democrat. He is now
evidently an Implement of Hingham,
ami he acta as if be was determine! lo
put himself beyond any chance of a
further political career. "NaU" Head,
lately risen to a notoriety which has,
haa led the pictorials to portray hi,
has already been a member of the Lcg

f the State, bank and railroad dirve-
soldiers, most of whom died in the Sal

Tho general hurroundings of the
Cemetery mark the great care employed,
and extensive improvements. The na
tional government has erected an en
closure of solid .stone masonry, five
feet high. Tbe grounds, under tho di
rection of Capt. Richardson, have been
regularly laid oil' and adorned with
