LINE PoINr.-The jury impanneled to ap
praise the value of Lime Point and the l 900
acres of land adjoining, which the Government
seeks to purchase in order to get site for a
fort opposite to Fort Point, have decided the
real value of the whole tract to be $l25000
The Government Agent will dispatch this irL
formation to Washington by to-day's Pony
Express, and recommend that the purchase be
made at the price stated. Throckmorton, the
owner Of the land in question, appears to be
dissatisfied at the jurys decision, and it is said
he will appeal from the verdict. The witnesses
on the part of the owner were William Glib
(of Daniel Glib & Coz, Peck (of Peck, Rogers
& Coz, Teschemache, Ferdinand Vassault, R.
Fl. Sinton, and others. They testified in diff
ferent degrees as to the commercial value of
Lime Point and the adjoining coast, and rep
resented the location as valuable for warehous-
es, steamboat landings and other business
purposes. Some of this testimony, it is said,
gives the land on the water front most fabulous
values. On the part of the Government, a
number of witnesses were also examined
They testified that two-thirds of the tract was
suitable for pasturage only, and the remainder
arabic. For agricultural and grazing purposes,
(the land presumed vaueless for any other,)
the average of the testimony made the entire
900 acres worth S27, 900, showing difference
between their opinion and that arrived at by
the jury of $4,000. We are not informed as
to whether any attempt was made to condemn
the point of rocks which the Government
actually needs for fort, and which embraces
but few acres, so as to avoid purchasing a
large ranch which is not needed for military
purposes.-BuHetin, July 1871.
