The WoRLD IS GIVEN TO LYIxG.-A writer in
the Union, haling from Ttlama but living in
Shasta. in Illustrating the effect of tie Legal
Notice Law, says that the Constable Of French
Cinlt b had posted notice of sale of mule. to sat-
isty an execution, on a tree in The Gulcl. aud
was going to sell without publishing IN the
Courier. He says:
| called the attention Of The Constable 10 the
fact tha, ne lsnd violated the law. and advised
hln, betore selling the mule. TO have HE notice.
OF sale published III ihc Courtr, he tsnr' pa
per Tor Shasia, Trinity, Siskiyon. Humboldt aud
Klamath. He took my advice, repaired 10 Shas-
"a Clty, sixteen miles distant aud gave his no.
fice to the editor. Now comes il,t beaniy of
the law. The Constable got 10 the tiice on
Friday, after tie type SET for printing The.
paper, and his notice cou!d not be cot in. He
bad TO wait then until -'le next Friday which
would incHr loss of seven davs. and then 10
comply with the statutes. he mus wait five day.
after the publication to sell. Thus twelve DAYS
were consumed
According 20 lhe hes: Of our knowledge AMI
belief, no such Constable ever called at this Of
tce with any such no:ice--and no such notice
wFs ever kept ont Of dis paper. Al all events
If there was, no body about The establishment
remembers anything about it. And although
this is onr second publication since the date of
this reliable correspondents letter, no snch no.
tice of sale has appeared. 4 says further:
A prominent democrat remarked in re gard to
this that not more than five men on The Gucl
took the Courier, and iliat therefore, il was use
less 10 publish notices Al al.
The above is certainly one Of HE most cor
,rnp~9ie is;ecrs Of malisnancy that We ll4.,
ever Witnessed What little soui hat man
must have. who would permit bis cnniiy to
paper, or its owners, TO show itself in such
form. We douht very much whether any prom
to him. At all events it is an absolute falsehood,
and we firmly believe that the writer knew it TO
