tect Davis returned here with another draft
Of the new court house, which is supposed
to be within the amount allowed by law for
the erection of the building. The inside APP
pointments have not undergone any changes,
excepting some of the rooms are made
smaller. The difference of the cost under
the present plan and the former one, from
which bids were made, will be in the cur
talment of the size OF the building from III
feet in length to 102, and from GO feet in
width to g. the abandonment of the plan
of an entire fire proof building and confine-
ment of the fire proof vaults to the Clerks
and Registers Offices alone; and the omis-
sion of the embellished stones in the front
of the building. Bids will be received for
this work to the 18th instant. Not until
then can it be told what the cost of the
building vii! be, though every one is hoping
that the draft has been made this time to
secure bids within the legal appropriation.
