Roundabouts

Levi Jacobs, of Gregory, is a disconsolate man. He has planted a roll of bilis, amounting to $60, somewhere in his field, and is unable to lócate the spot. Brighton township, Livingston county, recently paid $60 bounties on woodchuck and crow scalps. Would it not be cheaper and the extermination made more complete to hire some one of the republican campaign speakers to stump the township ? Two manufacturing concerns, one of which promises to employ 45 men, are willing to settle and do business at Millford, if the town will raise a few thousand dollars bonus. The town will try to do it and vote a tax. This will work properly if no taxpayer "kicks". If the kick comes, the tax levy will be void. There are several holes' in the Stockbridge sidewalks where a man may fall in and break his devoted neck. The council should resolve itself into a committee of the hole, shoulder a few slabs from the sawmill, hunt up a few old spikes, nail the slabs down with the head of an old ax, and receive the plaudits of a grateful constituency. Edmund Gregware was reruseü a ride on a special rate ticket, by the Lake Shore company, because the limit had expired. He sued in justice court and was awarded gioo damages, but the case was appesled to the Monroe circuit, where the judgment was chopped and the award made $68. Gregware regards it as his victory, however, and walked away from the court room with his hat well back, over one ear.
