term expires on the 4th of March next, and,
we take it for granted, that his determina-

ESQ. Young, of Dayton, was obliged to
act as justice, and enforce the law, by fining
a man for passing bill of less denomina-
tion than ten dollars &c. But he refuses
to issue execution, and says that if the com
plainant is mean enough to insist on his
penalty, he will pay it out of his own pock-
ct. The law is denounced strongly by the
Empire, and indeed by all the papers Of that
city.
