a sharp witted friend came to the rescue.
By his advice, a baadbill, announcing
the cfeapness of the ls,ters wares was
prepared and distributed exactly as had
been already done for some time. except
in one particular item. The bill was
headed Who's your After = and
throughout its contents were invariably
mentioned as ats youths Silk Ats.

etc. The remainder Of the anvert'se-

The result perfectly justified the IN
yeutor's anticipations. These bills were
sought after as typographical curiosites-
Men shouted with laughter at the

ignorance on the part Of the printer. or
OF the writer. They carried these bills
in Their pockets, and merily show ed them
to their friends. One or two elderly
gentlemen, previously perfect stranger.

The Sheriff has the roll now in his hands
for collection OF State and county taxes, and
all persons are notified to pay Immediately.
On Monday October, 10Th, at sundown, he
is required to levy upon all the real estate
described in said roll, as well as improve
ments aud personal propery, and add Jfre per
cent, to the amount of taxes due from each
person, so that there are bNt twenty-five days
in which citizens can pay withent cost. On
Saturday November l4th, he is to add fifty
cents to each seperate assessment, to defray
the expense of advertising, and on the 23d
day of November the delinquent list has to
be published-once week for three success
i've weeks-and Monday, December 2lst, he
must sell all property upon which taxes re-
main unpaid There is no discretion left the
Sheriff at all, the days are specified upon
which he shall perform these various duties
and failure in one would invaldate a tax
sale
Last spring we called attention to the
short time it would give tax payers in this
county to make their settlements, aud as seen
above, but twenty-five days elapse ere anon

forced impartially, and will be paid by prop

DANGEROUS travel through a certain

you have occasion to open a fence We
have tried it. The proprietor has a pet

with him when team chances to get off
the road, upon his premises, for the purpose
Of persuading the 'lost traveller" on to the
right track. The proprietor should be thank
full for his escape thus far, and discharge his
back-snake; the reptile sticks so close by
him. in the pursuit Of lost travellers, that if
the latter should shoot at his snakeship the
proprietor himself might be injured 1t is
perhaps unnecessary to say that similar
