REAL PROPERTY?
The number of transfers of Real
Estate made in this County from the
1st of May 1871, to September llih
1873, as shown iu the Auditor's office,
is 701, of which 110 were made in
1871, 382 in 1S72, and 200 up to Sep
tember 11th 1873
The Couuty Board of Equalization
hns been in Session ior the last two
weeks. Wo understand that a fair and
equitable ruination has been placed up
on all property. The annual Board of
the Couuty Commissioners met also last
week, and slashed right and left iuto
the claims presented for their consider
ation.
Saiu?our VV. M. that is to say?has
recently made internal improvements in
his saloon, which will conduce to both
the ex and in-ternal comfort of his
patrons. Very wisely, too, he has secured
the services of our young friead, Master
Aabury Wannamaker, who is as cour
teous, clever and obliging ss when ho
assisted at the "Enterprise." Need we
say more?
Pome three or four year* ?po tk? g<M*r1
people ef ttus town conferred upon us
the brevet rank of "Major." After a
profoa^eU and territic straggle we have
at last succeeded in preventing them
from bestowiug upon us the civil title
of "Alderman." It was a hard fight,
but the glorious bird of victory has
finally perched upon our banners, and
wc are permitted to retain our military
position without* any Aldertaaaic pre
tension or distension whatsoever. The
next man who calls u? "Alderman" does
so at his peril.
A worthy Independent eititcn wait od
at the poll la?t Tuesday evening until
the count for Moseley reached 125 and
then wer t home to bed, confident that
"Pink" was all right. Waking up
however, about midnight, he heard to
his horror, a terrible uproar, hooping,
halloing, the shooting of pistols, Ac?
and exclaimed, "The d?d Radicals havo
won after all. No one else would make
such a h?11 of a noise at this time of
night!"
He slept miserably until morning, but
an early walk convinced him that human
nature is the same all the world over,
and gave him, beside, s good appetite
for breakfast.
All persons wishing to take pnrt in

The recent decisions of tho Supreme
Court of the United States have dcelared
the HOMESTEAD ACTS of this State un
constitutional as te debts contracted prev
ious to 18t58.
The last amendment to the Bankrupt law
gives to the debtor the same exemption of
real and personal preperty as was given te
hi?by the HOMESTEAD LAW.
The only way that HOMESTEADS can he
