Rensselaer Gazette, Volume 3, Number 37, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 4 January 1860 — CENTRAL COMMITTEE. [ARTICLE]

CENTRAL COMMITTEE.

The last vote for Speaker was taken last Thursday, when Sherman, as usual, lacked but four votes of an election. The House adjourned from Friday, to Tuesday .(yesterday.) We learn from te Monticello “Spectator” that the difficulty on the Burlington, Logansport and Peora Railroad has been adjusted, and the cars ran through from Logansport to the State line on Monday week. We h avejuet passed through an extraordinary cold “spell.” We are informed that the thermometer in front of Clark’s store,indicated twen-ty-two degrees below zero at daybreak on Monday morning. We issued the President’s Message in an extra; but as such documents are not so eagerly sought after as they used to he, when Presidents were more patriotic, we do not leel sure that our subscribers will appreciate our enterprise. It seems to be understood with the Democracy at Indianapolis and Lapointe, that Colonel Alien May, the lignt-h ouse beeken at Michigan City, j is to be the next candidate for Congressman in this district. We hear it rep-orted on the street that the Supreme Court has granted a rehearing in the Newton County case, at the instigation of parties in Laporfe, Montgomery, and Fountain counties, which counties are materially affected by the decision in the Newton County case. The same report also says the majority of the Court are dissatisfied with the decision rendered by Judge Davidson.

The Republican Central Committee are hereby requested to meet. aL the Treasurer’s office, in IC usselacVf on Friday next, at half-past six o’cldyk, Ezra Wbight, Chairman.
