fore last he made sbout three hundred
gallons of brandy. He estimates that he
will make about twelve hundred gallons
of winethis year. As the vines grow old
‘the ‘yield will increase, and tlie anual
income from this single acre of ground
ought in time to be from two to four thousahd dollars per year! We ‘are informed
by Mr, Seibert that ho has made. twenty

grounds are kept in thorough cultivation,
and the vines ‘are trained upon’'a frame

is not anxious. to throw his ‘wines into the

familias with the. character, ot the building contend that these objections are
groundless, . The. friends of the project
elaint that the proposed eupola is in ex.
‘act-proportion tothe building, ‘The-cupola will sét upon heavy timbers which rest
upon solid masonry, and will bé bolted and
braced to the front wall of the building.—
The only openings in the roof will be made
for twelve cast iron pillars, which are supplied with collars. and there ia no danger
of the bnilding leaking. They contend
that the Court House is one of the~most
substantial-and beautiful buildings of the
‘kitid ‘in the State, and the county can well
be useful, and will at the same time add
to the beauty of thé building, while it will
in no way injure or weaken it. . The Board
of Supervisors have heard all ‘the reasons
for and against the cupola, The Board
has among its members a competent’ mechanic, who worked upon the building and
is perfectly familiar with its strength. He
and all other carpenters say that the building will sustain such a superstructure}
without the least damage. There seems .
to he no objection on the score of cost, to
the proposed improvement, but on the contrary, the people desire to have the publie
property as attractive as it can be made.
We are satisfied that the Board will do
what is best in the premises. We un
derstand ‘some final action will be” taken
in thé matter to-day.

Sunday she was found ina vacant lot in

of a snake. . Both were dead, the former
having perished fromthe bite of the cat,

from the too friendly hug of the snake. It
