Mr.. stephen p. NJ. Tasker and his father were
in town, yesterday we suppose to look after
things in general connected with the works.
The coming session of court is expected to be
the greatest and most tedious which has been
held in New Castle for long time. The trial

number of their profession from the cities will
pay us a visit at that time, prepared to assist

an escape if possible.
MIR. John W. Grey, the proprietor of the
Jefferson House, is making several considerable
improvements in connection with that Hotel.
His already we'll arranged bar room is to be
completely remodeled, and an oyster connter
placed in one portion of it. Mr.. Grey has also
established line of hacks to and from the JEFF
ferson House to connect with the regular pass
epger trains Mr. Grey has had large expert
ence in keeping hrst-class hotel, and he has
succeeded in making the Jefferson House Just
what it is represented to be.
Cunning seems to be below par just at present
among our lovers OF the sport. Ducks are not
as plentiful as was expected and there are few
partridges in the covers. Down the state, how
ever. things appear to be better as large num-
bers of sportsmen pass up and down on the
trains. Those returning bring with them large
quantities of game of all descriptions.
Our temperance folks in this county have not
forgotten that court meets Oh Monday and that
at tins time the question of liquor licenses will
be brought up for the decision of
the court. Two gentlemen from
your city, interested in this movement. came
over, yesterday to obtain, il possible, remou-
strancea against certain saloons in New Castle.
They visited several of our citizens, but with
what success We are unable to ascertain.
