to humanity; Good housekeeping makes good
homes, speaking after the manner of men. TOler-
ably good housekeeping makes tolerablY-and
never more than tolerably-good homes. Poor

They wanted a change of administration,
A change of party, change OF station,
A change of policy, a change of place:
Turn out the rascals, put In new brace.
They got their change on March the first;
A change from the better unto the worse,
A change in place holders change on the docket,
But no change from the bank, and no change in
the pocket
And when the farmer got around
To make his sugar and till his ground,
There was another change to signify, for he
found
That his sugar brought five and his butter tN elve

A change in the expression of his face,
Instead of a smile, with pleasing look,
A trOwn, and d-n the change and d-n the luck.

And We'll never howl for change any more.

County Court.

Court is still in session, and bids
fair to live the week out. The case
of Butts as. Cass was warmly con-
tested for three days. The action
was for malicious prosecution, and
was tried before with verdict for the
plaintiff. The case then went to the
Supreme Court on exceptions and was
remanded. The result this time was
a verdict for $29 damages. and costs.
This amount will help Butts some, for
it will probably pay his attorney fees.
There are three other cases, growing
out of the same transaction, to be
tried at some future time, unless 9th
erwise disposed of. Brigham, Saw
yer and Boynton appeared for Plain
tiff. Gleed, Burke and Rand for de-
PENDANT. The case of Mackey and
wife Us. Fletcher, in which it was
claimed that the defendant had SLAM
dered Mrs. Mackey, the jury brought
in verdict for the plaintiff for $500
damages, and costs. 1t is said the
jury varied in estimating the injury
sustained, their marks ranging from
$25 to $500. The case of State
Us. Amber is now on trial. The new
docket was called on Saturday, show
ing thirty-one entries.
