THE COUNTY COURT BILL.

From the indications now the vote on
the County Court bill will be very close
i'm this county. Both sides seem conf
dent of victory. This town and Pala-
tine are put down as being very strong
lv in favor of it. The opposition to 1t
claim that it will be defeated by the
county vote. 1t is generally thought
that there will be very small vote out,
consequently there is difficulty in COM
inc To- a conclusion i'm regard to the re-
suit. But little is known of the prOvlS-
ions of the bill by the people. FOrSomc
reasons, best known To themselves, the
county papers have not published
the bill during the canvass on ITS adOp-
ton. Therefore the people are COM
paratively ignorant OF its provisions.
Quotations have been made from the
bill, but quotations won't do. The pco-
pie out here have way OF voting Tor
themselves, and not as others tell them.
Considerable hard work and wire pull
ling will be done between now and next
Tuesday. How it will effect the result
remains 10 be seen.

commit a rape on a young lady, near

cleaned out in the morning, and by
some means, Tailor Manly left shovel

urgent in his demands for Pat. to work,
| Patrick armed himself with the shovel,
| and threatened to brain any man who
would dare to enter the cell. Every ell
fort was made to paciiy him, but he
still persisted in his warlike determina-
ton. Finally, as the last resort, the

session for one week, and still con-
tinues to hold on for the transaction
of important business. At this term
more business has been transacted
than at any previous one for year
past. Judge Thornton, although q
young lawyer, has presided with
dignity and ability. He has already
shown his intention in quiet and
positive way to have the Court res
'pected, and all judicial proceedings
conducted with order, dispatch and
decorum. Conscientious and up
right he will labor to discharge his
duties faithfully and will, no doubt,
give general satisfaction to tie COM

that indefensible and excessive char
