united in holy wedlock Mr.. James II.
Stuart and Miss Eliza J. Hudson, all Of

nothing remarkable in this fact Of itself,
for people are getting married every day,
and will continue 10 marry and be given
In marriage TO the end Of time. But 1t Is
remarkable that This bride and groom
were born on the same day of the came
month Of the same year both on the same
evening, at the same altar, professed reli-

the same church. And, to complete the
phenomena, they were married on the

s"ohWe EuitoFA AS KNOW you desire
fair discussion in all matters Of public
Interest, allow me to say word In reply
10 the arguments used by your cores
pondent elsewhere on the subject
Of Court House removal. ! do not wish
TO present the arguments on the other side,
but merely to point out what seems to the
writer the palpable errors Of fact upon
which this advocate of Court House reno
Val states his side Of the question.
!. lie says that ''the Court House and
It's officers are totally inadequate to the
public demand" This will be news to
the gentlemen filling these offices, and
think contradicted by oil who have bust
ness with them. The Court buildings will
compare very fayorahly with similar build
ings in counties of the size and age of this,
any where 10 the country.
o. "seyen-eights Of the business Of this
county, rendering recourse to the county
seat necessary, comes from Wilmington"
This is simply not the fact, az an exami-
nation Of the records will show-and to
those We must refer.
Sd. The majority Of the Loan Assoela-
tions are not situated in Wilmington or II
20, they are little more than majority,
and the statement that the expenses for
travelling entailed on these associations
by reason Of the situation Of the County
Building, at New Castle, was s5OOO Is
absurd. Why not say $50. 900. Now If
your correspondent will take the trouble 10
inquire at the offices where this business
is transacted, he will find that all the ex
penses Of all the Loan Associations in
Wilmington incurred for searching the
Records will not exceed $500 per anuum,
aud that this expense would not be lessened
800 il the Court House was situated in
Wilmington. Aud what has he to say to
the Loan Associations situated in other
places Such an inaccuracy Of statement
needs only to be poinled out, but unless
polluted cut may mislesd the friends as
well as opponents Of the Court House re-.
moval.
