X. F. Barret; be agreeing to have a
Horse Boat 10 operation within thirty
days. capable Of carrying four wagons
and keeping it in such condition during
The boating season for five years; and
paying The City 500 per annum for the

ninty days notice, By buying his horse
boat al its cash value.
This is the contract as we have learned

These two remarks of the quandam august

special importance, show this much, at
least-that his once busy brain is still
keenly alert to note passing events, and
make his comments upon them. In his
further observations | understand he

recognition of the late rebellious States,
