Letter from Leesburg

Correspondence Of the -tierandrin Gazette
LErsrrRG, Va, June l2--Our County
Court met yesterday, aud all the Justices
having been summoned, the body presented
quite business appearance.
The Surveyors Of the Road were appointed
for the term OF two years, and most Of the
former ones were appointed again.
The only other matters of Importance that
we're passed upon by the Court, were the
fixing of the capitation tax at seventy-iive
cents, instead of one dollar, rs heretofore.
One of the arguments used in favor OF il,
was this: -That the days wages for work
ing on the road was one dollar, while the
capitation tax was seventy-tve cents, many
persons, not over fond OF working, would
work out their taxes for the purpose Of get
ting the extra quarter. The road fund is
raised by per centage on the property of
the County, or rather upon the State reye-
nua, arising from property in the county.
The Court, as published by yon a few days
since, will be the committee to ADJUST the
details Of County expenditures 1t is brst
rate Court for the purpose.
There was i motion made to commit the
estate Of Burr Swart, who lately lost his
life in the shocking manner mentioned b
me, to John Moore Of Adie. This motion
was made by the creditors, and was resisted
by L. W. 5wart, his brothar, who wished
Frank l.. Fred appointed. The Court de-
clined, under The law, to appoint any one
not of kin to him, as thirty days from his
death had not elapsed.
The Rev. Thomas II. Stockton delivered 4
very able address on MaterialSm and Spirit
ualism; Matcrialism being that thing which
regarded this earth as the ultimate end OF
mans existence, and Spirirualism that which
considered him in the character OF an I'M
mortal bein@. Ehe audience completely
