thority, that the Increase Of the county
levy was for tue purpose Of paying the
interest on tho Railroad bonds Of the

deemiug four or five thousand dollars
Of tho bonds; but we have since ascer.
tanned that only 81, 900 ofthc levy was
Intended for redeemiug the bonds. and
$50 for paying interest, and that
the remainder Of tho Increase Of the
levy was owing to other causes. We
will print 10 our next issue the list e
