Comfy Esrsdges-BOard Meet
ing. &c.

The late floods in this County have
done an immense amount Of damage
not only to houses, farms, fences,
crops, &C., but to tho roads and
bridges. The former heavy losses
must he met by individual citizens,
to whom our most earnest wishes go
forth that they may succeed fully and
speedily in repairing damages and
recovering more than former pros
perity. The bridge losses come upon
the County, Of course, and must be
met in some way. The preliminary
steps are already taken for Special
Meeting Of the Board Of Supervisors
on the % Of next month, to consider
the subject.
The only course we can see to
adopt is, to first make schedule, as
accurate as possible, Of damages done
to bridges, with estimates Of amounts
required for repairs; and then to Of
thoritively announce that at the next
September session levy TO the full
amount allowed by law, four mills,
will be made for the Bridge Fund;
and then proceed to make the best
possible use of warrants, issued on
the strength Of this announcement,
to repair and rebuild bridges whore
necessary.
The Bridge Fund is now behind
some So 200, we believe. A levy of
four mills will net to the County
from $4,000 to $4,000; which would
square up the present debt and prob
ably cover nearly or quite all the
repairs ncccssitatCd by the late
floods. il is possible, also, that some
other expenses may be reduced, and
perhaps some loans made from other
Funds to the Bridge Fund.
We feel sure the Board will con-
slider the subject wisely; and hope
they will see that hereafter the
bridges are built higher and bolted
more solidly to their foundations.
And doubtless it would be well also
To examine into the merits Of iron
bridges, and learn whether or not it
might be better to try them.

FIGURING MILL. WASHED AWAY
The FIGURING Mill known as "Hay-
makers Mill" on Cedar creek, i'm the
northern part of Liberty Township,
was carried away by the floods last
week. II was owned, we believe, by
Mr.. John Haymaker; was a two-story
building, with two run Of burrs, run
by water-power. 1t was very old
frame, but had lately been repaired
and reftted considerably. Our ncws
comes somewhat indirectly: and the
estimates given us vary from $4,000 to
s., 900 as the amount or the loss.
Later word says that the Mill is n
total loss, and that Mr.. Haymaker
values it at $4,000.
