Without penalty until further orders.
Mr. Kirk Robinson is building a
new store between Mr. Louis' and Mr.
Hamilton's on Market street. It will
eoon be finished.
It is said that our sheriff, when re
elected, failed to qualify within tho
time required by law. If this is true
is there not some danger of litigation
in the future about land titles?
"We understand that Mr. John Dan
tier, tho accomplished foreman of Mr.
Cornelson's establishment will soon
have up a residence on the new street.
Let others follow his example.
We noticed the town marshals busy
catching hogs on Tuesday. They are
entirely out of place on our sidewalks
and should be put up, fattened aud
killed. Wt mean the hogs of course.
M. Albrccht is building a new store
on the burnt district which he ex
pects to occupy iu a few days. He
will keep on hand a full stock of gro
ceries, liquors, &c, which he will sell
tit reasonable figures to all who iuvor
Iii in with a call.
W. K. Crook is determined not to
he behind. Besides his excellent as
sortment of groceries and liquors, he
1ms a splendid stock of dry goods,
lints, ho its, shoes, &c, which he
is selling off rapidly. He must sell
cheap.
We are pleased to learn that Capt.
Mortimer Glover, who is on a visit to
Lake City, Florida, for the benefit of
his health is rapidly improving. He
will prolong his stay until the cold
weather is over, when we hope to wel
come him homo in renewed health
and spirits.
SALKS-DAY
Being pleasant, a large crowd was
in town,and things looked more lively
than usual. A good quality of land
and other property changed hands,
and as a general thing brought fair
prices,

T. W. Albergotti, Esq., the popular
baker of Ornhgehurg, has revived
from tho losses ol the fire and re-es
tablished his bakery, offering his cakes
?&c, at the store on Russell street oc
cupied by Mrs. Maul, and sending
around his bread wagon as usual.
We venture the assertion that no
baker in the State can heat Mr. Al
bergotti making bread or anything,
else in his line, for wo speak from ex
perience, and advise everybody to try
Iii m.
THE PUBLIC MEETING
Held on last Tuesday to take steps
for the safety of the town, an account
of which appeared in our lust issue,
was renewed on Wednesday night.
On motion of the former chairman
Mr. Joseph Harlcy was called to the
chair, and J. G. Vosc, Esq., requested
to act as secretary, A committee of
seven was appointed to draw up res
olutions expressive of the sense of the
meeting. A committee of three wns
nlso appointed to take such* action as
may lead to the erection of twelve or
more street lamps. The meeting then
adjourned and met again on Friday
night, when tho committee of seven re
ported, recommending that the May
or and council bo requested to take
stops to organize a police force of all
able-bodied citizens between tho ages
of 18 and 45.
Tho committee on street lamps
asked for further time; bat wo under
stand that they are working in tho
cause.
J. Gcorgo Voso, .Esq., is pushing
ahead in the mercantilo line, having
made a complete change in Ids busi
ness arrangements. Ho now keeps a
full and varied assortment of general
merchandise, and his customers can bo
supplied with almost anything they
ask for.
Besides groceries, he advertises dry
goods, hoots, shoes, crockery, &c,
with which he is well supplied. He
is now beautifying his store with a
fresh coat of paint and a new sign. I
I Vir. Vose 13 an enterprising, euer- j
getic young merchant and all will bo
pleased who "patronize him.
The panorama which is going on
in the Elliott Hall every night is de
serving of notice, and to those who
nro fond of traveling and scenery, will
be interesting and instructive It is
a cheap way of becoming acquainted
with the world.
Grand and beautiful scenes in Italy,
Ireland and California were exhibited
on Tuesday night, and we understand
that the programme will be varied
every night. On "Wednesday night a
a beautiful bible was to be given away.
We hope the light will be stronger
hereafter.
Messrs. Smith & Stiles, tho mana
gers of the Panorama, will commence
to-morrow to canvass the town for an
excellent woik on the life ot Captain
Fry, the Cuban martyr. It is pub
lished for the benefit-of his widow and
orphans, and wo commend the matter
to public attention.
T* - * ?
There is entirely too much indiffer
ence to the subject of streets in our
town on the part of those in author
ity. The street south of Russell
etreet, and parallel to it, has been laid
out, aud yet it stands unopened, al
though it is said that money has been
offered to Council for the uecessary
work. It is also said that Judge
Glover offers a street connecting this
street with Russell, which we have
not heard of beiug accepted.
Dr. Webster also proposes, we be
lieve, to open two streets through tho
most available part of tho town; ono
to run from Mr. Copes', above Major
Whalcy'8, toward Sunny Side; and the
other to connoct this street with New
street neat the depot. A few thousand
dollars spent in this direction would
do more toward encouraging immi
grants, and building up our town, than
anything we could do. Let tho town
Council, and the owners ol property
interested; exercise a little energy in
the matter.
TAXES.
Men go up to the tax offico and
pay out their twenties and hundreds of
their hard earnings, with scarcely an
expression r.of opposition, so accus
tomed have they become to injustice
and oppression. Tho thing might bo
more tolerable, if the taxes were any
where within bounds, or if they were
spent for some useful purpose; but
they are exorbitant and unjust?they
nre at least four or five times too
much, and after they are collected
they go in largo proportion to sup
port corruption, or, what is almost as
bad, to bolster up and keep nlivo the
fraud which floats under the guise of
free government. It is in tho power
of the farmers to stop this iniquity, if
they would only unite and act to
gether with the zeal and combination
that their enemies do.
