Tie case of the Commonwealth
against John III Austin came up before
Judge Gregory, on Monday Last, upon
Il charge Of obtaining goods under false
pretenses, from II. w. Barnes
Brooks Leach executed his note to
the defendent for two dollars and sent
him to George Thomson, Cof COLOR who
owed Leach, to get the money on the
note.
Thomson paid Austin one dollar and
sixty cents and Austin returned it as
not being sufficient to pay the note.
Thomson, the day following sent Aus
lin the money again, who concluded to
keep it and apply the amount to an
other debt which he claimed that
Leach owed him and then traded the
note to Barnes who brought suit against
Leach and failed to recover judgement
and sued out the warrant.
The case was full of conflicting
statements and hard swearing and the
defendant was discharged. Walker &
Hubbard appeared for the defendant
and displayed in a striking manner the
force and effect of a skiIiful cross ex-
animation under the fire of which
some of the witnesses for the prosecu-
lion broke down.

Having just returned from visit to
Hardin county after an absence of a
few days, have concluded to give YOU
the benefit Of the observations made
during my soionrn among the good
people Of Hardin.
| arrived at East View OH Friday
afternoon it being my objective point,
on the L., p. and $. w. Il. r., and
procured a quadrupcd, in the shape OF
mule from my clever friend ana
merchant. Mr.. Bert, and Immediately
was vending my way in the direct
ION of the White Mills which place
| reached just as the sun had sunken
behind the western horizon. Here |
remained over night the guest of Mr..
Nielsen
White Mills is small town situated
on Noliu river and about two.and-a-
halt miles from the H., =. and 5. w.
Il. Il. Before the railroad was built
through the county vast amount of
business was transacted at this place.
but the railroad being so near to it,
much of the trade. which formerly had,
now goes to East View. The -four.
ing mill owned by Mr.. Dan. WORKMAN,
the prince Of millers, l was informed,
is doing thriving business. This
mall makes as fine flour as any mill in
the State. would here take pleasure
in recommending it to all parties wish
ing good -four, and at the lowest mar
ket psices
Next morning called on n few of
my old friends and at 10 O'Clock.
L mounted my steed and pro-
ceeded in a Southernly direction and
the next place of any special note, |
came to, was Akers Valley. Here l
was the guest of Mr.. John Henry
Akers, largest farmer west of the L.
" n. railroad, in the county. This
valley is owned by three brothers
whose names are Akers, and is re-
garded the best adapted to the growth
of wheat, corn and grass, of any in the
county.
During my sojourn here, could not
refrain from congratulating these broth
ers on their wisdom and good Judge
ment, in purchasing and settling in this
valley. They are industrious and en-
terprising farmers, and richly deserve
the patronage and high esteem of all
frst-class business men.
While the guest of the Messrs. Akers
mentioned above, l will remark that
1 had the pleasure of making the ac-
quaintance of his beautiful and accom-
plished daughter, Miss B. l found
her interesting in conversation and
the embodiment of all that is attract
i've and noble in woman.
