trict attorney said that he had come 10 the con-
clusion that the young man has already suffered

corning the extension Of his road north

was tso small and had tos few csHAec-
ti0ns 10 be The terini nus OF read, and
that, as soon as they complete the work
aid of on the southern end, they would
begin work at Middleton and bgild
north, to Jackson. The people in eastern
Rardemsn ought ts wake up, and hasten
the coning. If the citizens q Bolivar
would exercise the public spirit which
they are capable Of exercising, the road
might be brought this way. But town
