MISTAKES will occur in the best regulated
families. Some two years ago, Lawrence
avenue was graded, and to pay the con-
tractors, the necessary tax warrants were
issued. Owing to some mistake, the prop
erty of Messrs. Hines and Eaves was assessed
six Thousand dollars, when it should have
been but six hundred. The gentlemen in
question objected to this exhorbitant levy,
and the matter was taken TO the District
Court, which decided that the first tax sale
was void. Accordingly the City Treasurer
made new sale Of the property day before
yesterday, and things are quiet.

Honor to whom Honor il Due"

Whereas report appeared 4 few months
since in the Portland Advertiser, and was sub
sequently copied into ether papers, to the effect
that physician of Pittsfeld had been assaulted
by cramps" upon the highway for the sup
posed purpose of robbery, but by prowess and
stratagem succeeded in escaping with both
money and life.
And whereas by Il recent revival of said re-
port Dame RumOr has made a mistake and
substituted my name for that which appeared
in the original report as the physician assault
ed, adding also that one of the Cramps was
shot by me upon the spot. l desire to state to
the public that so far as my name has been con-
nected with the reported transaction, it has not
q particle Of Foundation IN fact. On the con-
trary, have travelled this and neighboring
towns, attending to the duties of an extensive
practice, by night as well as day, for more than
twenty years, without the slightest molestation.
And as this particular kind of notoriety is eX
tremely repugnant to my feelings, you will
confer a great favor by inserting this correc-
ton. All papers which have connected my
name with such report, with others which may
consider same worthy of note, are respectfully
requested to give this an insertion in full.
