''ScHooL CENsus.-By late law the duty of

clerk will send the county superintendent
statement of the number of white and colored
persons of either sex, whose names are returned

reads rs follows:
"Sec. 10. = 1t shall also be the duty
of each township assessor or commissioner to list

Some time since I'VE noticed the arrest by Dep

Some time since we noticed the arrest by Dep
uty U S. Marshal Risk, of J. H. Picker and
Daniel Fisher, of Long Glade, on the charge of
violating The U. S. Revenue laws, in selling Al
cohol and that they were sent on to answer in
dictments. In the case of Mr.. Picker, and we
suppose in the case of Mr.. Fisher, he had been in
the habit of selling Alcohol for years, as it is
much used in mechanical operations, and WAS to-
tally pnaYare that it required specific license
hen informed of the fact he at once ceased SELL
ing. On appearing at Harrisonburg and the facts
being made known to the U. S. Grand Jury,
they were acquitted Of all blame and no indict-
ments found against them.
