The New Court-House.
We call the attention of every Tax-paver,
|to the tabular statement furnished us bv
j Judge Bell, to be found elsewhere in these
columns, in regard to his proposed method
i of raising funds to build the new Court-house.
After a careful perusal of the same, we must
admit that it is the best plan that could be
devised. The highest amount of tax to be
raised in any one year, and this is the first
year of the twenty, will not be much over
one thousand dollars, and the per cent, on
the hundred dollars will decrease as the tax
able property increases, and this will almost
be doubled in the next ten years. This plan
divides the burden of paying for the Court
house over twenty years, and thus relieves
us from the necessity of paying the whole
amount at one time ; besides, we learn that
the size of the bonds will only be one hun
dred dollars—this places them in reach of all
who have a little money and desire a safe
investment for the same, free from Home
stead and Bankrupt laws. We must confess
that we can see no objection to this plan,
: and shall, therefore, urge the people of Jack-
I son County' to vote for Bonds, in the coming
election.
Firel Fire 1
Last Sunday was a fine day for wind, and
a bad day for fires; or rather a bad day for
property owners, whose fences happened to
come in contact with the swoop of the de
vouring element. Just after dinner, there
came a rumor to our quiet village, that the
fire was raging in the neighboring forest and
plantation just west and north of town, and
that the residence of Mrs. Adams was endan
gered. Many of our citizens—old and young
—grave and gay—white and colored—hied
themselves away, as fast as possible, to the
scene, to render what aid was in their power,
to check the raging element.
It seems, this particular fire, hal originat
ed in the plantation of Mr, T. 11. Niblack
two miles out. and spread quite rapidly for
several hours before it was checked, and at
one time, Mrs. Adams’ house was in consid
erable danger. While fighting this fire, it was
reported that another, of great dimensions,
was devouring all that came before it, in the
neighborhood of McLestcr's factory’, on the
lands of Doctor and Mrs. Long, in a very
extensive body of woods.
Many hurried there, to lend a helping hand
to the small band who were endeavoring to
stay the almost resistless march of the flames.
By dint of hard work and good management
and a lull of the wind-storm, this formidable
fire was brought under control about nightfall,
without any’ very’ serious damage to fencing
or other property’, save the woods, over which
it swept and leaped with the impetuosity of
a tornado, almost, for a while.
The young men in town, Turned out in
such numbers as to interfere with the after
noon Sabbath School ; a circumstance to be
regretted, while it does credit to our gallant
boys, who are ever ready to fly to the relief of
those in distress.
There occurred, as we are informed, va
rious other fires in different parts of our
county’, on the day in question—in some of
which, considerable damage was done to
fencing, and, in one instance, a house, which
we believe, was unoccupied, was consumed*
There was a fire out near Judge Hancock’s,
and one at Mr. J. B. O’Shields’; one at Mr.
Adolphus Martins’, that destroyed much
fence ; one near Mr. Elrod’s, and also others,
we have been informed.
People should be very careful now, with
fire, as much harm is done to property, and
often human life lost, by reason of careless
ness with fire, during the windy season.
To Arrest a Felon.
A deep-seated, throbbing pain in the end
of the finger, should never be disregarded, as
this is always the first symptoms of a felon.
The disease invariably begins at the bone,
and before suppuration has commenced may
often be arrested. Dip the finger quickly
into boiling water several times in succes
sion ; this may be done without any risk of
scalding the part. Repeat this every’ hour
for several hours, and the cure is generally
complete. If the disease has already pro
gressed to the suppuration point, have it laid
open to the bone. Nothing but this will save
you from weeks of suffering, and perhaps,
often, permanent deformity’. A felon may’
always be cured in ten days, even when mat
ter lias already’ formed, if the above advice
be faithfully followed.
