ct enquiries of my ftlow citizens. You will
perceive that the whole article Of Il. j. X"
so far as the bridge Is concerned, originates
through ignorance: he has taken up the er-
rcncous idea that the friends of the bridge
wish it to be built at the expense of the
Comfy. and hence his Indignation, his f ars
"i viliinous attempts, " robbery" and his
ulg,n calls for hClp!! In the same article
however, he very f ankl. ackne Wedges that
he and no ono else could object to u subsciip-
ton bridge, provided, tlcy male he p,opic
Of the county pan TO cross II. !" Now it is
well known that the friends of the bridge new
or contompla ed building it in any other way
than by subscription. They obtained a
charter some years ago and it so reads: but
must say, that they expect to make al persons
who cross the bridge pan toll, ard not conf1r.
themselves to 40 the people of The county. ="
Alas . Il. j. h s. whole foundation has
crumhlcd beneath him and one is almost |, d to
believe that he is rcmiSs in his knowledge of
the writings Of the Old Testament, and |
would especially refer him back to the VIII
chap, verse l3 Of the Proverbs of Solomon,
where he says 'hc that answcrcth matter
before he hcareth il, it is a folly and a shame
unto him."

fact that there are persons in the End dis

in tho Ind district owning farms TN the line
Of the route. who are of the opinion that il
would enhance the value Of tlieir property,
and who therefore claim the RIGHT to call the
attention Of their fellow citizens to tie fact
