County Roads.

IL the condition of the roads through
out the county during the past few days
is not sufficient to arouse our farmers and
the people generally TO the absolute
necessity for better system of road
making nothing on earth ever will, and
the subject may as we'll be dropped, and
the people make up their minds to endure
with patience our present horrible roads
until the bottom falls out of creation aud
we ali 60 through the hole with it. 1t is
certainly sad commentary upon the
boosted intelligence and thrift of the peo-
pie of Shenandoah to see SIX strong horses
Juggling to the utmost limit of their
strength to drag through the bottomless
mud canals, joklngly called roads, what
should only be fair load for two horses
on a really good road. The condition of
the roads of this county, barring the
pike, would be disgrace to backswoods
settlement one year old. There surely is

county, one of the best in tie State, with
its splendid lands and intelligent and en-
lightened inhabitants is so far behind the
age in ibis respectl In other improve

Lands, fences. Buildings and barns show
wonderful advance over fifteen or TWEEN

stock of all kinds is very great. In labor
saving machinery of almost every de-
scripton, we are not behind any COM
munity. and our public schools are as
good as can be expected with the present
limit of taxes. 1t is only in our roads
that we fall back to the morning. after
the Creation, and if good old Noah could
suddenly materialize in Shenandoah
county about this time he would think
that he had just walked up from his trs'
sleep after the flood, and he would go TO
scratching around in the mud holes for a
lot of drowned sinners. The roads OF
this county are an utter disgrace and a con-
slant and heavy loss. How long will this
condition of affairs be allowed to exist

Criticised.


Criticised.
GREENsBo Ro. Ca, Nov. 2S.-John W.
Gilpin. who killed his brother-in-law
Charles Kilgore, last July, was to-day ac-
quilted BY jury. The killing was one of
the most desperate in the history of the
county. Gilpin secreted himself by a road
along which Kilgore had to pass, fired two
loads of buckshot inlo him, and then pur-
sued him as lie ran of, striking him over
the head, breaking his gun and crushing
Kilgore's head. Gilpin drove coolly off.
He subsequently gave himself up, and was
tried in September last, the judge granting
a new trial on account of applause at the
conclusion Of the solicitors argument
GREAT INTEREST MANIFESTED.
Great interest has conferred in the trial.
The defense offered in justification of the
killing that Kilgore had made repeated
threats against his life and he'd endeavored
to carry them into execution, and that in
addition he bad endeavored to seduce
Gilpin's wife, acting on her fears for her
husbands safety. The general opinion was
against Gilpin and the verdict has caused
much indignation. The jury is being SO.
verely criticized by many Of the most
