An act has passed the Legislature, pro-
viding for the relocation Of the county seat
OF Lee county. Itprovides that at the next
August election the voters Of the county
shall vote for the respective towns claim
ing the same, and provided no one point
shall receive majority Of the whole num-
Der Of votes cast, there shall be . second
election held for choosing between the two
points having the highest number Of votes;
and the point having the highest number Of
votes shall be the permanent seat Of justice
Of the county. 1t is thought that the coun-
ty seat will be restored to Fort Madison
BY the proposed vote.-RPOrtsr.


From conversations with gentlemen from
Lee county, we are gratified to learn that
there is probability that the election pro-
vided for BY the act above referred to, will
finally settle this vexed question, which
has 50 long agitated and troubled the people
Of that county.
