SUPREME COURT, GENERAL TERM -
We notice some twelve cases on the
docket from our county, eight or nine
of which have been argued and the
decisions will probably be rendered
therein during the term. In the cases
! of State VS. Woodward & State VS. Zeph
Wash burn, the indictments were held
insufficient and the respondents dis
charged. There are questions of in
terest involved in several of the cases
which we will try and give to our
readers when decided. \
4 AS soon as time and space permits
we intend to supplement our last
weeks article with a detailed state
ment of our business interests and the
facilities which might be made avail
able in bringing TO life new enterprises
and industries. And we would be
glad if our orrespondents from every
section of the county would give us a
like statement of all the interests in
each locality1 For what is more
interesting than discussion of what
we are doing and how we can better
our business prospects by making
every facility within our borders invit-
Mug to business men.
Ny an act of the last Congress the
Postmaster General is authorised when
a new mail route shall be required, to
make temporary contract for carry
ing the mail on such route without
advertisement for such period as
may be necessary, &c. Why cannot
our people between here and Derby
Line and Newport invoke the aid of
the Postmaster General under that law
to procure an additional route so that
we may be connected and have mail
communication with both said places,
and at the same time have an inter-
mediate route created and no one be
left out in the cold without mail az
commodations.
