have been made in the Court House Square,
which showed that the blue clay with which it
WAS tiled up to within 4 foot Of the Surface il

grounds. The clay still lies in blocks, like loose
rock, and j, will he necessary to leave the
grounds nearly in their presen. condition Tor

Judge Fuller, the contractor is again TO fill up
the Square to gradc when trees will be planted
und the grounds suitably ornamcnted. Grass
seed will be sown, and the yard cleared up III
