With this issue The Times resumes its old quarters in the Bank Building where we will be glad to welcome any of our readers when they come to town. The Injunction under which we have labored so long has been dissolved and Union county's old paper will continue to make its regular weekly visits to every section as heretofore, filled witb all the county news and as much of State and National as we think the people may desire. We take this occasion to thank our subscribers and advertisers for the patience exercised during our troubles and assure them that their r.iany kind words have been appreciated ; I ? ? - ?

The Board of County Commissioners decided at a recent meeting that the Magistrates being salaried ollicers are not entitled to any pay for any criminal work, in addition to their regular salary. The board reached thia decision, nnon? ? _ - -?? mf the holding of an inquest. There were several points of law made in said protest, among which was that as a Magistrate wa3 a salaried officer he had no legal right to charge the county for any criminal work, that is, any work in which the State is a party; therefore a Magistrate could not collect an inquest account. J. A. Sawyer, Esq., attorney for the board, prepared a very elaborate opinion on ibc subject and sustained all the grounds included in tlie proteat. It is therefore now established that the Coroner and Deputy Coroner are the only officers who can collect an inquest account. FREE RURAL DELIVERS'.

A list of tho Union sounty veterans might be of interest o cur readers, but we are unable to jive it as all of them were not in line, .'amps Giles and Boyd were both well epresented. We were glad to see the rautiful banner presented Camp ' iiles by Mrs. A. Foster McKisaick, if Auburn, Alabama, in line. While 11 the banners were pretty, yet none .ttracted more attontioa and received mo e complimentary notice than that f Camp Giles. We only regret that 11 the members of the camp were not a iia3 of march under it. J.
