ent of the County finances.
!Ve believe they have been, and are
skillfully and economically managed,
but the tax-payer, with the figures be
i fore him. has no excuse if he fails to j
i form an intelligent opinion of his own.
It is a duty he owes to himself, and
also to the officers who are serving him.
If these reports are generally exam
ined and understood the political capi
tal of the opposition in this County
will be greatly reduced. For the last
two or three years the management and
extravagance of tlie County Commis
sioners lias Ixen dwelt ujHrn and de
scribed in choice terms in every school
house from one end of the County to
the other, about election time. The
reports put it in everyone's iiovyer to
know just how much of that S'-rt of
thing to believe.
Farther than this, if there is auything
wrong now is the time for the people to
know it and apply the projier remedy.
Piv all means examine these reports.

East Tuesday evening tlie residence
of Hon. Isaac Benson, in this place,
caught fire from a stove pipe which
passed from one of the upper rooms into
the garret, close to the roof./ It seems |
tliat where the pipe entered the garret
it was only about four inches from a '
rafter. 'When discovered it had evi
dently been burning some time, as one
of the large beams was entirely burnt
off
/ When the fire was first seen. Mr. Ben-,
son was over town, and there hieing no j
one around the house but Mrs. Benson
| and the hired girl the former made her
: way into the garret, through a small
j opening, and supceeded in putting out
I the fire. But now she found herself a
prisoner, for though she had somehow
| got up there the aperture through which
• she came was so small that it required
nearly an hour's labor from parties I**-
low to enable her to get down.^
Last Tuesday a man in Sharon town
