before enumerated, OF not less than $3O, :
600. But the advocates of this scheme
will probably deny that we would ever
be taxed for this money. Let us see.
There is not now more-perhaps less,
than enough Swamp Land Fund due the
county, even il 1t was ALI available, to
pay for dne-half the proposed bridge.
Now, this money can be legally used by
the county only for the purpose Of build
ing bridges. II this money was used for
the purpose Of building bridges over our
small streams in the county, our bridge
tax would be ,proportionately lessened,
besides giving to each part Of the county
their equitable portion of it. On the
other hand, let it all be placed in one
bridge, and fen individuals may he
benefited, while the majority are not
only deprived of their just portion of it,
but muat for years to come, pay taxes to
build bridges over their little streams
This, in addition to the tax for other
purposes, while the county is SO much in
debt, with only few dollars of Railroad
funds In the county treasury, will, for
years, load the people of this county
with debt. W. TAXPAYER.

SAD ACCIDENT. We learn from Z. A.
Gray, Esq, that Charles shaw, . young
man aged 10 years, and living In Gower
township, was on Sunday evening last,
fatally wounded by the accidental dis
charge Of a gun. He and two Of Mr..
Gray's sons were getting apples at tree
near Mr.. Gray's shop, on his farm, in
Iowa township. One was in the tree
shaking apples, and the other was un-
der the tree with Mr.. Shaw. When an
apple came down Mr.. Gray was about to
get it, when Mr.. Shaw playfully pushed
him away, causing him to stumble 50
that his foot struck the hammer Of his
gun, discharging 1t. At the time the
gun wentof Mr.. Shaw was stopped in
such position that the ball passed
through the muscles Of his thigh, just
above the knee, entered his right side,
passing upward and toward his left
shoulder, and lodging near the left collar
bone He lived but few minutes
The boys were very intimate, and the
survivors feel deeply the effect of the
accident He was worthy young man,
and leaves widowed mother and many
friends to mourn his departure. l74
