Tlic Honorable Board of County Commissioners of Jasper County, met in regular quarterly session, last Monday, with a full board present.

Gundy, of Fair Oaks, whose application was granted. The parties who relucted were Milton Clark, of Remington, and Geo. W. Tilton, of Wheatfield. Clark’s case was dismissed, on motion of his attorney. No action has been taken on Tilton’s application. The present very favorable contract for county stationery, with Spring, Emerson & Co., of Lafayette, was renewed for another year, on the same terms. I Viewers have been appointed in three very important ditch cases. One of these is the 8 mile ditch in Keener and Wheatfield tps., already described.
