CHURCH ENLARGEMENT.-The con-
grcgation of the Presbyterian church
arc discussing the question Of cnlarg-
ing their place of worship. The
church was built years ago, and ol-
though considered large at the time,
has for some time failed to furnish ac-
commodation for its own congregation
independently Of seats for strangers.
There arc at present forty-six families
connected with tho church in town,
and six more families in the country,
while the active membership la ninety
seven in town, and over hundred in-
Guiding the country. Yet there are
but forty-one pcws in tho church
which can seat at their full capacity
only two hundred and ten worshipers.
During the past year or two number
of Presbyterian families have moved
to town. 1t is estimated that tho re-
quired addition can be made for seven
or eight hundred dollars. The elders
and deacons of the church met at the
parsonage Monday evening to talk
over the matter.
The CIRCUIT COURT.-Since the re-
convcning Of tho Cour, of Common
Pleas the following cases have been
tried:
VIM. s. Brice and w. Watt Brice,
as Executors ofJohnG. Brice, Deceas-
cd, vs. James H. Stowart-Messrs.
McCants & Douglass for the pl,int Gs
sMr. A M. Maokey for the defendant.
This was an action to recover a tract of
two and one-half acres OF land claimed
by the PLAINTIFF and occupied by tho
defendant. The latter claimed that
the land in dispute was included in a
tract knowna as the "Smith Place, .
which was conveyed to the defendant
by John G. Brice. The, plaintiffs de-
MED this, and.the single question in the
case therefore was whether the tract in
dispute was so included. There was
much testimony introduced, and the
trial of the case consumed an entire
day. The jury rendered verdict for
thc3plaintiffs for the land in dispute,
and ton dollars damages. .
