The COURT HousE.-A visit to the
Court House yesterday, revealed the
fact that outside Of the Assessors Office
all was dull and dreary.. The Auditors
office is enlivened occasionally by deed
or two presented for record, but the
Clerks office presents little appearance
OF business. An occasional visit to the
Sherff's Office gives US no new items.
The prisoners in the County Jail are still
in the same condition, that is, they are
for the present being fed by the Sheriff
until their trials take place, which will
be at the next term of the District Court
No leakage is apparent in the up stairs
rooms and owing to the scarcity of bust
ness very little wood is needed of which
avery small quantity is laying round the
Court House.
