Our County Court-Judge J.. Ell. q. Jones

last. There is quite full docket. A spe-
cial grand jury found a number Of indict-
ments. The court has been engaged most
OF the time in the trial OF William c. Long
upon an indictment for seduction. This is
the second trial Of the accused, the jury in
the first trial having failed to agree. The
jury this morning brought in a verdict OF
"not guilty." This case has attracted con-
siderable feeling in the county, and much
interest Wasfelt In the result. The prisoner
was ably defended By Hon. b. B. Douglas
and Colonel T.. B. Montague.
The commissioners returns show yield
from twenty Motfett registers, from January
2sth TO February 18th, Of 1854.
