We Wo cannot say that the above is true, although our informa tion is from a trustworthy source,and hope for their sake that it is not so. WHTthey Wiff they please explain. And wilV they also explain by what authority a couple of. bastard children have boon maintained by tho county for several years. Ths children's mother is married and why has she not been compelled to maintain them? Tho County Court is a very mysterious body. T he B ar .—We don’t moan the bar at the saloon although it has been’ well represented.

John son, John Waldo, J. Simon, Hon Ben llaydcn, Judge Myers, Newbury and J. J. Daily. This, in addition to our local bar, judge Ramsoy, Judge Hur ley, James McCain, A. Hurley, Glen. O. Holman and Hon. Ez C. Brad- sluiw, makes quite a sprinkling of lawyers. ? ______ ____________ T No R obbery .—While Mr. Kelty, County Treasurer, was at thu enter tainment, the othar evening, ho was informed that his store had been bro ken open, and an attempt made to burglarize the county’s safe, Wu aro informed, by a gentleman who was sitting in front of the store at the time, that no robbery was intended. .Someone was passing, aud seeing a light, thought he would go in. He gave tho door a terrible shove and it flew open, but finding no one in the Store ho cawoout immediately. T he E ntrtainme ^ t .—Tuesday evening, as per announcement, an in teresting ehtjrtainment was given at tho Court-house, fur the purposo of raising funds to repair tae parsonage nt this place. The exercises consisted of vocal and instrumental music, es says, speoclic«, begging, etc. Judge Caples and the railroad boys managed to make considerable fun for the an- dience. Everylx>dy seemed to enjoy themselves. The receipts amounted to the neat sum of sixty dollars.' F ine S tock .— Ljst Monday night Mr. W. Bigham’s fast horses stopped nt this place, lie is just returning from the Washington County Fair, where he succeeded in getting away with most of the purses. Among tho horses we noticed Foster, Billy Big ham, Norwich, the fine two-year old Orogon, and the old heater, Luther, who is too lame to be put on the > track thia year. -- --- — L ively .—Last Monday evening Judge Hayden .addressed a large au dience at the court-house, in this place, on the curtent topics of the day. After a short speech lie took his scat, and Dr. Watts being called for, spoke at sorno length, aud was answered by Mr. Hayden. For a while things were quite lively, both of them waxing warm.

We didn’t hear whether the well had been salt ed or a vein found. A young „ lady was our informant and, being of a bashful turn, wo did not talk a great deal about coal. t ? 4—» w»»«* r —"’“¿JY I""*” -k ■ -F-r gL Sr.VEUELY — Last Wednes S l V ehkly H urt .— Wednos- day as Willie Carey, a littlo lad of Six years, eon of W, B.
