"REFoRH."-Read what this cores
pendent has to say about County Courts.
His head is level on that subject. We
have enough courts to obscrb our money
now. We want no additional burthenS.
There is danger, however, that such
Courts may be organized, as it is fair to
suppose that at least one membe of the
Legislature from each County is looking
to the appointment to the Office of Coun-
tyJudge. This with their influence with
the other members, may be sufficient to
establish this proposed imposition OH the
tax payers of the State. We need re-
trenchment.

only q sample Of a four hundred gallon
lot, which he offers for sale at Is cents a
gallon. This is farming right, and VIC
hope to see others follow his good EXAM
pie. He is a single man and good look
ing. Ladies, attention.

Of the most successful planters in that
