NEW ROADS AND COUNTIES.
 A special town meeting was held, last Saturday, to act on the subject of laying out new highway in Upper Nome waug district. At this writing we have not heard what action was reached Another matter considered by the meet ing was the application of six veteran soldiers for town war bounties under the statute of the Legislature of 1895. Four of them, Edwin D. Bishop, Charles Ccs- fer, Levi Callender and Chauucy Monroe, applied under the bounty vote of 1862, which granted bounty of $110 for each enlistment,or e,enlistment, which should count to o IT credit on our military quo- Jas. The town first voted $lOO bounty. Then Gideon D. Judson, Esq of New York, native of Woodbury, placed $500 in the hands of William CothreD, with the direction that he pay a bounty of $lO each to the first 50 men who should enlist in company of Woodbury volunteers, which was then in process Of enlistment Then the town at another meeting voted to make the bounty of all additional vol unteers $110, "to make them equal to the Judson Volunteers" Under these boun- ties, and others voted later, the patriotic men of Woodbury enlisted and went to the front. Some died in battle and oth- CTS of sore disease, while many returned and have suffered ever since from disa- bilities incurred in the service. Woud- bury was foremost town in furnishing volunteers. With a population of gabout 1900 she furnished 266 volunteers, whose history is recorded in Volume ? of the History of Ancient Woodbury.
