That Now Comity.
hi the mutter of the now county, to 1)0
formod out of portions of Anderson and
Lumens counties, much is being said
in tlio interest of such project, hut wc
have hoard but very little said In
reference to the drawbacks, ox port u
incurred, oto. Ono of the principal
arguments advanced inadvooaoy of tlio
new county is that those who lie with
in the bounds of the now county linos
will ho much nearer the Court Bous? .
But this Is n mistake, a> a largo num
ber ol people who live in the North
eastern portion of the propose d how
county will ho farther from the county
seat than thoso who now live in the ex
treme Western portion of I.aureus
county. Wo submit, also, that tic ar
gument that the expense for build
ing Court House, Jail, Ktc., will not
cost tho tax-papers anything, or hut
very little, is also erroneous. Grant
ingovon that llonea Path will build a
"115,000 Court House and Jail, in a very
fow years the buildings would bo too
small to do tho business, and they
would havo It to enlarge: besides thai,
go to any of the adjoining counties
and make an inventory of what it costs
to furnish a Court House after it Is
built: For instance: Thoro will ho
six iron safes to buy, which will cost at
least $3,500, two vaults will cost at least
$-100, furniture, books, desks, etc., to
furnish the various Olllces and court
room can't bo put in for less than
$11,000. Now, you havo records to bo
transferred from four counties, which
can't be drawn for less than $1,200 to
$1,500. So wo have a rough estimate
of what it cost to furnish the court
house after it lias been built, which
amounts to $8,100, leaving $0,000 with
which to build the Court House and
.fail, which will not bo suftlohtnt to
build a decent jail. Takt; Groonwood
county and you will seo that their
Court Hoiiso and Jail will cos!, them
$21,000 to be built,to say nothing of hav
ing the inside properly lifted up with
furniture, books, safes, etc. It would
be well for our people to consider those
things before oastlllg their votes for
the new county, There are more in
ducements behind this new county
scheme than more closeness to the
county seat. Wo hoar that there are
some county o dices to bo divided up
among certain active promoters of tho
Boheme and we think there is more at
stake for the tax-payers than the more
consideration of forming a new county
to create new olllces for new politi

FRANK LESLIE'S POPULAR
MONTHLY FOR JULY.
An Important and very interest
ing historical paper is the leading
article in Krank Leslie's Popular
Monthly for July. It is entitled
"Heroes of the Neutral Grounds,"
and treats of (he little-known his
tory of I lie pat riots who protected
t lie homes anil people of the Saw
Mill Valley, N. Y., from the raids
of tho British (luring the Revolu
tion. It is written in an attractive
style by John P. Kilter, ami is pro
fusely illustrated. The same num
ber contains many other good
things. There is an article on
Syracuse University, by Jennie M.
Ringham, the ninth in the excel
lent scries on "American Univer
sities ami Colleges," and beautifully
illustrated with views of Hie build
ings, Greek Letter Society houses
and portraits. The markets of luo
Mediterranean are picturesquely
described by Margaret Hall. A pa
per on banana-growing, by A.
James Miller, tells oi the produc
tion of that delicious fruit in Cen
tral America. Colonel Nicholas
Pike, the prominent naturalist,
talks entertainingly about his ad
vonturi : in hunting the crocodile
and nllgntnr. "Tho story of a
Passport," by Cecil Burleigh, de
scribes the trials anil tribulations
of tho cm t ier of such a document,
In "A Shelf ol Bird*' Nests," Eliza
beth Nunemaker gives an inter- -
nsting account of her observations
among the homes of our "feathered
friends." There aro a number ol
good short stories. The absorbing
"i iul '"The Catspn\V," is continued
ami the department for young peo
ple is ns attractive as usual.?
