rn.Thc materials Of the Non'e Go-ct'c
establishment, late of this placc,were sold
on wednesday to the publishers Of the
Belefunte PrcSs, for Si25. The Gazette
was a neatly printed and ably conducted
paper-perhaps ~ one in the county
ever had more labor and means bestowed
upon it-but, 1t ,rrS not nce''ef, and has
shared the fate Of half score of others in
the county within our knowledge. The
truth is, two papers in Union county are
sufficient for It's real wants, aud more can
not win fair, honorable, wholesome live
hhood. Unnecessary journals benefit no
enc; while the losses they incur, are felt
BY various classes in c5tnmuu!ty, aud make
fearful aggregate.
An interesting trial was decided at Sum
bury, on Wednesday, which consumed
good deal of time The dispute was about
few feet of land, upon which, 1t was
alleged, the Supervisors of jordan town.
ship located road the full width as re-
quired by law. The prosecutor Ga widow
lady) contended that more than half the
road was upon her land, aud brought suit
against the Supervisors for trcspass. The
amount in dispute was but a few dollars,
but it has been in court several times,
and the costs, it is stated, have run up to
upwards of 81 600. About seventy wit
nesses were examined, and the jury was out
some thirty hours, and then brought in a
verdict in favor of the Supervisors. .-H-

The Farmers Of Shamoh;n and Lower

The National Treasury is bankrupt,
and many bills are turned away unpaid.
This looks bad for the hard currency ma.
