Local politics is unusually dull in Mishicott
this spring. The bone of contention" which
greatly agtated our voters a few years since, has

questions before the people of the town that
could create such intense feeling and give TO
such bitter rivalry as the Road Troubles
The first regular meeting of the Mishicott
Literary and Social Circle was held on Saturday
1 last. The character of the meeting furnishes an
/ emphatic verifcation of a statement in our
previous letter. that the Circle" has promise of
a bright future. A pleasant feature of the meet
/ ing was the reading of an instructive Essay by
DIR. A. +. Hahn on the subject of 'Copperwork
OF the Aborigines." The Circle" Is in every
sense public society and visitors are very well
come at any of the meetings.

piece of property. Everybody was intensely in
. terested in the progress of the sale. About a
dozen people from this village were among the
| bidders, The property was sold to Mic Terens
and |. Cratic jointly, their bid being Sl805. Thus

every purchaser. The newly purchased proper
ty includes, uusold lots in block &; tract of
about . acres; Cemetery lots unsold lots in
