CT, Clerk to the County Commissioners,
gives notice, that on Thursday, the 25th
inst, at II o'clock, a. m, in front of the
Court House, the County Commissioners

responsible bidder, $4,000 worth of Jail
Bonds, of from $500 to $1,000. The Bonds

A MisTAKE.-A short time ago our cf-
ficicnt constable, whilst in the discharge OF
his duties, and mounted on fiery, un-
tanned steed, rode the animal into stream
of water to qucnch his Uhe horscs) thirst
which he was sadly in need of having been
fed some salt a short time previous. The
noble beast after drinking his fill, changed
the programme somewhat and took a roll
bic all this time? Why in the creek also
up 10 his middle, and using cvcy effort to
make the horse desist from his additions
until q more appr opriatc line.
| POLICE AFTAIRs.-Two John Drunks
were pulled last week by the police and
taken before the Mayor, who put Il cinch-
er on them to the amount of $l.2J apiece
and sent them on their way rejoicing
These gentlemen were arrested Tor drunk
enncSs and disorlerly conduct Oh the street
and were handled as carefully as possible
under the circumstances. Tis for no use
| boys, we've cot the horse in harness now
that will put you through, and that partl-
atty which has heretofore been shown is
entirely ignored by him. so look n little
out hereafter when the "ilc' gets too lal
up your nose.
FINE R,1Ss.-Ncarly every day last
week our community was visited with some
fine rains which were of untold benefit to
the growing crops and newly made gar
dcns The wheat crop in and about on
town limits is Of very promising nature
and the yield will be an ABUNDANT one this
year Ifnothing happens to destroy til,
crops our farmers can easily give two days
to thanksgiving instead of one rs hereto
fore and lose nothing thereby Providence
is certainly in league with Our farmers, and
! should be thanked accordingly.
