points.
The applications for Bedford lands are
constantly increasing, and every week
one or more Of the farms pass into the
hands Of western and northern men, who
are cordially welcomed by their neighbors.
OCCAsIONED SURPRISE.
There was much surprise occasoned by
the communication to Mr.. j. N. Daniel
the agent here for the sale Of revenue
stamps, that from this date the Office at
this place would be discontinued. For
the past two years the sale Of stamps
has amounted to 10000 per annum. and
for the past two months Of the present
year has been 5000. The manufacturers
Of tobacco will be very seriously incon-

will be under the necessity of sending TO
