c. II. Smiley, of New Bloomfield and
+. Z. Beltzhoover. of Carlisle, were ad-
mitted 70 practice iu the several courts
of Juniata.
The Grand Jury reported in favor of
an entire new Court House, which now
enables the Commissioners to go on
with the contract, and raise the neces-
sary funds for the erection Of the same.
1t will not be commenced, however, un-
til after next February Court.
The list for trial was an exceedingly
long one, but it soon got prun0d down
by cases being ruled out, settled aud
continued, so that Court was enabled
to rise on Friday afternoon at 3 2. NJ {.
An Argument Court will be held on the
Sth of October next.
There was quite large crowd jim at
tendance at Court up until Thursday
evening, the Court House, at times, es-
pecially in the evening, being crowded.
Better order inside and out of the
Court House was manifest among those
in attendance than formerly. Some few
behaved as usual, but as no liquor is
sold now, the local option law being
strictly observed, they must have eaten
something that disagreed with their
stomachs, or perhaps made mistake
and drank too much river water.
