The county court has drawn first
blood in the suit of officers for
salaries. The case was argued at
Albany some time ago upon a
denuurer of the district attorney,
who appeared for the county.
Judge l-'ullerton then took the mat
ter under advisement, and this
week rendered a decision sustaining
the demurrer. We understand that
an appcul will lie taken to the
supreme court.
Messrs. G. Gumlersou and O.

Washington in quality of soil, in
the greater ease with which our
land can be cleaned and in climate,
besides not so heavily burdened
with real estate indebtedness. They
promised to be back after closing
out what they had up there.

County Clerk Jones gives us the
following information concerning
the office of county clerk and the
emoluments therefor, which are
interesting at this time. He states
that for the past seven mouths his
salary would, at the figure set by
the county court, have amounted
to $700, saying nothing of the dis
count. During that time he has
paid out $280 for regular deputy
hire, and in addition has paid extra
deputy hire as follows: For making
the delinquent tax roll in October,
$58; for making two copies of the
assessment roll, one for the sheriff
and one for secretary of state, $120.
The total deputy hire paid out
amounted to $458, leaving him the
salary of $242, or $34.50 permonth,
and the discount on the warrants to
come off of that.
The county clerk discharged his
deputy last Monday, and says, that
! the law compels him to keep his
office open trom eight o clock in the
luoiiiiiig until five p. m., which he
will do and do faithful work for the
county, but he says that it is simply
impossible to perform all the duties
of the clerk's office without a deputy.
The average number of letters alone
