In Lawrence County, Ohio an aged and feeble gentleman has for some time past held the office of County Recorder; but owing to his infirmities, the duties of his office have been transacted by his daughters, during several years past.  The old gentleman died recently - and at the late election, Captain Kerr proposed to be a candidate for the office; and that if elected, he would do the business by proxy - let the daughters of the old Recorder do the business and receive all the pay.  It is said to he received nearly all the votes.

CHARLES G. KILGORE was shot by Wm. Henderson, an inmate of the Lawrence County, Ohio Infirmary, last Thursday night and died the following evening.  It appears that for some time past depredations had been committed on the building, and the keeper had placed Henderson on guard.  On this occasion Kilgore came into the yard before the keeper had retired, and hearing a noise, the latter notified Henderson Henderson, who went to the door, and as Kilgore came up the steps shot him.
