Oswego Palladium Oswego County, New York November 1, 1845 THE EIGHTH DISTRICT.--The nomination of Mr. STODDARD for a seat in the Senate from the Eighth District, is a capital one. He is a gentleman of fine talents, and an out-and-out Democrat. We wish we might entertain even a hope of his election, but suppose we may not. ___________ The Onondaga Standard states that a petition is in circulation asking the Governor to commute the sentences of VAN STEENBERG and O'CONNER. We hope a similar one may be got up here, and that it will be numerously signed, as we feel certain it would be. ________________ The democrats of Onondage county have nominated for the assembly, DENNIS M'CARTHY, LAKE I. TEFT, J.C.KINNE, and ALONZO WOOD. This is an excellent ticket, and one which will pretty certainly be elected. ________________ There is some corn raised in Oswego county. Mr. N. W. MYERS, of this town, has raided from about 10 acres of ground, 850 bushels of ears, which he thinks will measure 425 bushels of shelled corn. _______________ The flouring mill of Mr. RANNEY, at St. Catharines, C. W., together with its contents, some 10,000 bushels of wheat and 3,000 of corn, was destroyed by fire on the 19th instant. Loss $15,000--insurance, $10,000. ________________ Lieut. JAMES OVERING HANDY, of the 8th Regiment United States Infantry, son of the late THOMAS HANDY of Newport, R.I. died at Corpus Christi on the 26th ult. ________________ MARRIED In Mexicoville, on Monday morning, the 20th inst., by Rev. Mr. CONDIT, Rev. RUSSEL WHITING of Volney, to RHODA E. daughter of WARREN MITCHELL, Esq., of Mexico. In this village, Oct 21st, by Rev. J.
