iu substance, as our rccollectiou
serves us iu words, that he re

moucy collected on suspended laud

such character as that pertaining
to trustee? aud if it is not In

or a Davenport? let him cay
how he is now regarded by his
bondsmen those chiefly interest

if they would not rather stand bail
for said pair than for him ? Aud
let us here make one statement for
the benefit of the Pilot ; it ever
cplies to statements affecting the
character of officials of its set by
saying that they emanate from po

and tho names associated there

tax payers, are uo moro emphatic

The Pilot further says of Mr,
Webber : "Ilo can iu no manner

tion of records." Wo ask Mr,
Webber if tho Stub Tax Receipt

been kept in his office, has uot been
mutilated by having over one-half
its con ten t a abstracted ? aud if the
same book for 1873 has not been

Hons. Win. Cray.J. D.Webster,
J. A. Boss, A. W. Shadd aud oth
ers, condemning the frauds com
mitted upon the people of this the
county of Washington by the
Court House riu.
The publication of tho above
resolutions has been delaved from
uo sense of disrespect to the meet
ing or its members ; but it was
held duriug the session of Court
at which it was supposed Mr.
Webber would be proceeded
against criminally, and wo did not
cousider that its publication would
be proper at that time. (Iu point
of fact, Sheriff Wiuslow is a mere

Mr. Webber iu absolute chargo of
