TUESDAY Dec. -th.

TUESDAY Dec. 1th.
The Court met at the usual hour The
only business done was the reading and
signing Of the minutes
This session of the District Court has been
by far the most important ever held in this
connsy. Eleven criminal cases have been
disposed of five persons have been tried
upon indictments for murder, three have
been tried for manslaughter, and one for
arson. Two Of the eleven above mentioned
have been released upon their own recogui-
zance, by reason of insuthciency of evidence.
A very long list of civil cases has also been
tried. We learn from the Clerk, that the
minutes of this term of the Court occupy
more space on the County Records than
those of the last three years and q half, al.
together. Judge Williams has discharged
his duties we'll and faithfully, and to the
general satisfaction of the bar. General
Harris has proven himself District Attor-
ney of much ability and vigor. Much ex-
pense has attended the term, bat no unne-
cessary extravaganza.
During the whole Of the term we have
been kindly furnished with every facility for
obtaining reports, through the politeness of
our County Clerk, Capt. Darrach, and his
deputy, Mr. Marble We tender them our
thanks.
The next term of this Court viii commence
on the second Monday in January, with

and not twenty dollars in money in

not able to work are going to Green
