Any person having a few min- uttft to spare, while in the Village, shoul 1 pay them a visit. At the last meeting of the Connty Cujuci! a motion was made to have the County Treasurer advertise all lands, liable to be sold for taxes, iu the papers published in the immediate locality of such lauds, m addition to that required by law. The mover gave as his reason fur making the motion, that as the law sow stood Utt tax sales were ordered to be advertised iu one pitper only, and the consequence was that very may of those, whose lauds were advertised, were not aware of it, from the fact of Aheir never seeing the paper contain- ing the advertisement. Had they been published in the local papers hs felt atsure.l that much of the laud now sold would be redeemed by thier own- ars. The motion, however, was thrown out on the ground that, as the law aniy authorized the oneadvertiss- meut, the extra cost of such gjiblica- tion would have to be borne by the Countr, as it couli not legally be charged against the lota so advertised. No doubt this is true, but we can't a«e why, iastead of sendioe the lands to be sold to one particular paper, for publication, tbey are not «tnt to the papers where the parties interested would be most likely to see them. If the law as it now stands prevents this method, it is time people were moving io have it remedie.l. if it is the duty of the Couuty Council to make the move, aud they neglect doing so, the people should see to it at the next elec- tion of Reeves and Deputies, that men are sent who will. Undoubtedly a great deal of hardship is caused by the present, system and the soouer a change is made the hetter. JOTTINGS FUGAi .U.\.X.\VELL. Vroai a Correnponilent. Beautiful weather a^^aiu.

Maysville is a smart mining town in Chaffee Couuty, located at the mouth of tbe North Fork, of tbe South Ar- kansas River, in an open sunny spot, making it a desirable winter residence. The pioneer settler of the tswn is Amasa Feathers, upon whose ranch the place was laid out. The town has bad a steady growth during the past season, and notwithstanding the nn favorable weather, new buildings are still in courseof erection. The census for 1880 gives the population at 600, but that hardly furnishes an accurate idea of the actual population from which the place derives its support, as there are hundreds of miners m the gulches and hills above who get their supplies at Maysville. The capitalist seeking to invest in the minus of the district, also makes this his head- quarters. The railroad, Denver ft Rio Grande, is praetieally completed to this point, and will probably make it a terminus tor one year or more. The prineipal firm in Maysville is the h«avy grocenr and supply house of Johnston k nondol, who also have a banking office, and supply the oitiseus with needed faeihtiee in the way of exchange. They are shrewd business men, always foremost in eyerything ?srtaining to the welfare of the town, he hardware ttaide ia represoDtad by SoUivan Bros. Ttwy carry a larga aiA complete stock. Maysville has foar hotels, six restanraota, and ewht saloons, two blacksmith shops.

An eloquent and practi- eal sermon, from the text â€" " Beoanse Thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of Tuy wmgs will I re. joice," Psalm LXUI, 3, was dehver- ed by Mr. Willoughby to a very large cooKregation, iu fact a number vers obliged to stand durmg the services, tbe church being so crowded. â€" The church is a handsome brick buildirg, with all modern improve mentA, a credit to the people of Thorn- bury and Clarksburg, who have errec- ted aud carried to completion such a handsome edifice. A very successful tea meeting was held the following evening, the church beina; litterally packed, and many havuig to go away for want of room. The balance of the cost of building ($8,000) was ful- ly provided for by subscription at the tea m«otine.
