There wasa considerable feel- ing aroused against General Sher: waog, the present Congressman, b the tacties which his supporters em- ployed to nominate him two years ago, and this was still further in. flamed by his removal of E, V, Mec- Maken, the uostmaster at this place, and the appointment in his stead of Capt.
