9rrGr Al MATTERS.
my nni,.i..AN

The RoADs.-The great conun
drum Of today is, what shall we
do for roads2 Notwithstanding all
the money, time and wind.work
which has been thus far expended
on what are called "roads" the mel
ancholy fact remains, and stares us
in the face, that our public roads
are practically impossible. In a
county such as ours, there should
he an easy and speedy remedy for
this, and we look to our solid men,
and to our County Court, to afford
the proper relief. Less wind.work
in the Court House, and more &C.
'tual work on the roads, would soon
make a manifest improvement,
and that part of ii can be attended
tn at once, but it is a fact that
unless we have better roads we
cannot expect to improve as We
should, aud as We have the oppor.
tunity to do. As q beginning we
suggest fewer 1troadsn less wranp.
ling and a little more good square
work. 1t is to the interest of every
citizen that we have good roads,
and there is no sound reason why
