Just been released from tho peni-
Tertiary of Pennsylvania who has
been in prison thirty years. He
was a forger, and was convicted and
sentenced in 1852. What changes
that man will find in the world,
and what his thoughts must be =;
1o owned q house and lot, whic..
was worth about 1900 when he
went to prison, and the increase in
its value, and the income it has
brought him, now gives him a for
tune of $40, 900 10 start again in
life. 1t might be well for some of
our fifteen cent capitalists to invest
their moneythe same way. There
is more money in it than in dealing
in mines, besides it would not take
near the amount Of "rustliag y

LINCOLN, N. NJ,
October 30, 1882.

October 30, 1882.
Editor Lincoln County Leader:
An article appeared in your issue
Of the 2Sth inst, with reference to
certain Lincoln county officials
specializing in county warrants.
There can be no doubt on that
question. Fran january LIST, 1881,
TO September 80, 1882, inclusive,
merchandise and liquor licenses
have been issued by the Probate
Clerk, and turned over to the
Sheriff for collection, amounting in
the aggregate to $3,067 so, of
which sum ST. 3S IS belongs to
the Territory, and an equal sum to
the county. But not a single dol
lar in currency Of the above named
sun has been paid into the county
treasury. The Sheriff has no cred
its OF the account current book in
the Probate Clerks office between
the 4th day of April and July 7th,
of the current year. The law states
that
On ~Or6et0re the tenth day Of each
month tie Collector shall pdy to the
County Irea$ursr all moneys due
tile county. for tGaes md licenses or
OTHERWISE collected By him for county
or other purposes, etc.
Why has not the law been COM
piled with Because it was more
profitable to buy county warrants
(tn VjoIation Of Mao) issued prior to
july 1st with the county money
collected from licenses, and have
said warrants funded at the July
meeting of the Board of County
Commissioners, which bonds were
selling at a premium, and then pur-
chase at a liberal discount warrants
issued subsequent to July LIST, and
not convertible into bonds, and
turn the same into the county
treasury at their face value.
GRAND JURYMAN.
The foregoing statement needs NJ
comment from the LEADER further
than the assurance that the makel
oft is in position to learn the fact
and does know just what he is talk
ing about. Should any one doub
our authority We can readily satisf,
them. Our opponents began thi
crusade on the records of candi
dates and we cheerfully take up thu
gauntlet thus thrown down. Gu
only regrets that we are compelled
to discuss these matters during
political canvass, and on the eve o
an election, wheh mems passion
are somewhat iniamed. These ar,
grave matters which concern Tia
whole people and should only b
