We know the Supervisors are the largest taxpayers If the county, and we know that they will study their own interests, and ill so
 loing, they will necessarily have to

 We hope the editor of the Critic will no longer presume he represents the public. or that he expounds the senti- ments and demands of the people. The people do not expect Or desire tine Su- peryisors to go into discussions through the press, save the publishing of their proceedings in the official county paper. We expect them to discuss and elucidate their presumed illegal actions before the grand jury, and the Critic, if it is aware of such, to bring them there, or inform some good citizen of the facts that they may do so, for explanation. The motive of the Critic looks bad, malicious, par ticularly so, when it permits few sore heads and grumblers to debase it's col umns, through which medium only, they have the courage to villify men who are the most interested and largest tax payers of the county. If such is the voice of the people and their deman Is, we are sorry; but we fear such is not the case. PUBLIC PROPER.

 An Idyi. There were two buns who up and down Trampd all the country, every town, From pillar shifted to the post, From post they driited near the coast From place to place their footsteps sped, As sften was their title read To other lands and pastures new, And U. s. Marshals helped them through. There was no trick or device shown, But what their life had tried and known; Foes were summed and friends betray'd, Twas all the same. so something's made: They had no scruples, knew no friencs, Twas all for self and selfish ends, Till wronging others cheated self And greed found want instead of Pelf. Like Noah dove they wanderd round, No place to rest was ever found Where'er they stopp'd. twas all the same. Their deeds preceded as their name. In swift pursuit averaging fate, Before them want, behind them hate, With none to help, no succor near, They stopp'd md waited, crouch d i'll fear.

But now they found another i'll Though finding safety, fingered till. The laws avenge, their foes they beat, Yet found themselves with naught to eat. Another victim found them there, And of his substance gave a share, His friendship offered gave them meat And brought them to the county seat, In pity brought them to his home And bade them stay, no more to roam. lie gave thein silver, with his hand, Gave Ihein business in the land.

So ever thus with man or beast, Those favored most deserve it least; But nature lives in every cline, Her vengeance slackens not with time; No mortal lives who ever saw The man who fled her broken law.
