I Ul course when the Legislature
assembles and duly considers the
matter, if it is of the opinion that
the unpopularity of a Convention
would annul the good results to be

to the prejudice of the Democratic-

TOWN' TAXES.
There has been a great falling off in town
taxes this year, not a cent having been lev
ied on real estate to work the streets.
I hereby give notice to town tax-payers

tion. They must come forward and pay
their taxes ; no indulgence may be expected.

Wbitehurst and get them. Town Ordinance,
No. 11, will be inforced against all failing to
do so within ten days from this notice.
Horse law, Ordinance No. 8, will also be en
forced. I hereby notify all persons who have uot
paid their street tax to come forward at
once and do so, or they will be dealt with
according to law. A word to tbe wise is
sufficient. J. B. HYATT,
Sept. 4.-2t. Town Constable.
