Berry Bog Road.
WINTHROP, Oct. |. 1870

The Commissioners of our County have
this day given a quietus to the vexing, not to
say distracting, question of a road around
Berry's Bog. As it has caused much public
and private excitement we will briefly review
the case.
The town of Winthrop, by vote, petitioned
the Commissioners to locate a road around
this bog, alleging that the bog was deep and
soft, that the road had settled, that the town
had expended large sums of money in curb
ing up and carting gravel, that the road was
sinking and will continue to sink and that
above water
The town of Wayne, on its part contended
that Winthrop had not applied sufficient ma
terial, that the road had not sunk materially
or if so, it had reached terra f1ma and would
! settle no more and that the public would be
greatly incommoded by a road around the
bog and that Winthrop should support the
bog road.
After patient hearing of voluminous tes-
timony and able arguments by C. 0. Bean
and Judge May, the commissioners decided
that the question hinged on the depth of mud
in the bog, and adjourned for the purpose of
determining the fact. The post norton YER
diet was from 80 to 40 feet of muck for an
| extent of 5S rods, whereupon the Commits
sioners granted the prayer of the petitioners
for road around the bog, making the dis
lance some so rods farther.
We believe that all concerned, towns, land
owners and the travelling public, in view of
all the facts in the case, will be satisfied with
this location. SEARS

The Preacher OF the Period.

The Chicago Times in an article on ths
clergy, says: "They are, as a rule, the
best paid men for the smallest amount of
work in the world, besides having passe
pdrfdnt into lecture rooms, concert halls,
first-class railroad cars, and general
deadhead ticket everywhere. The aver
age preacher In large city. goodlook-
ing or little sensational in discourse, is
worth about $4,000 per annum, which
means two essays week except during
an eight weeks vacation and an occa-
sional trip to Europe. Reduced to a
practical basis, which literary men can
understand and appreciate, this would
nay him about $50 column for news
paper work. His position is rendered
all the more comfortable because this
regular pay does not Include the usual
perquisites for funerals, marriages and
baptisms, three sources Of revenue which
are, perhaps, the most reliable in the
world, for all people must be born, all
people must die, and nearly all people
must get married. In other words, the
modern preacher gets extra pay for say
ing fattering words over dead men in
public, while almost everybody else goes
uurewarded for telling the truth about
them in private"

The latest victim is Gen. Won Moltke,
