The County CALF PEN.-We are re-
quested to notice the fact that the sheriff of
Grant county,who has charge of the court
house and Jail, has made calf pasture of
it the past season and has allowed calves
to occupy and deGie the court house; and
that, in one instance, a calf leaped out of one
of the windows of the court house, break
ing the glass and sash--that the county had
to pay for it, although the enclosure is well
fenced aud the commissioners had strictly
forbidden tho pasturing of the public square.
Also, that the square has been used for a
pasture for MIR. WocDs horses, although it
contains many young shade trees purchased
by the county.
