The publication of tins paper has been delayed to this day, in consequence of severe and protracted ill health, iieing partiallv recovered, and having procured assistance", the 4 Centinel is at its post again, and, as our 7ieighbor-in4aw, Stout, says, "we will endeavor to render our paper more entertaining than it has been" for two or three weeks past. The Election is over, and we give the returns as far as we have them. Notwithstanding all the falsehoods, the clamor, and the unremitted exertions of his remorseless enemies, Governor JENNINGS retains his tvonted place in the hearts of the people. Throughout the state, too, we have reason to believe, the friends of the people are elected
by large majorities. Many of the old mem
