As long as ~ grass grows and water runs,

during Wednesday night one of the pair got
ont of his bed, unbeknown to his companion
and wandered away diShnbille. In the morn

Gus search instituted to find his whereabouts
During tho day hosemcn secured the sur
rounding country in vain; every hole in the
town was searched, but the youth from tho
country was nowhere TO be found. In tho
evening wagon drove into town, and in il

From Earttortl city:l
Mr.. ED1foR.ASIn our last We left of
with the remark that arrangements were
being made for repairing our school house.
1 will now iutorm you that tho work is in
and with fair prospect of being
speedily completed.
The Company now is making quite
extensive rcpdirs'on its old store building.
A cellar has been put under the building
some sixty feet long and perhaps twenty
four feet wide, and about six feet deep
Tho carpenters are now at work preparing
the timber to put.on another story, which
will be quite an Improvement to the build
ing, both as to its general appearance and
usefulness. Another building is being
erected in tais place and still another, and
auosber in embric.
The Company is boring another salt
well, and arc down some 700 or 800 feet,
and still going down. Mr.. w. II. Ser
gent has tho superintcndoucg Of the Job;
and there is no doubt but that everything
will BIO properly managed aud carried for
ward encrgetically, and successfully COM
plcted. Mr.. sergent has never failed yet
to reach tho bottom, which is about hoo
feet from the place of beginning. When
1T is completed We will have sOyen No, l
wells throwing about 400 gallons Of water
per minute, when running.
We had quite a spock Of war in our
town the other evening, We are sorry to
soy, among tho Feuiau department the
cause whereof, We have not been inform
ed, and We have no inclination to enter in
70 al investigation of tho matter. But
from what We can learn there seems not to
have been any beusine nor "ripgizzard" in
or about the premises, hence We infer that
it was set on fire by that little unraly mem
Der which sets on Gre Of hell the whole
course of nature. We believe there was
no blood she'd, but great dealof gas ex-
pended. 5
Those boys who congrogatc about the
school-house, and crawl in through tue
windows fof the purpose of playing cards,
who white the eannisters, and mark the
building over with chalk, &c., had better
look out, for the Mayor is determined that
they shall not go UNPUBLISHED, If they are
caught. Look out boys. You arc guilty
of committing deprodatious on pablo
property, and tits nearly as bad to steal,
as to do this. II
