The lumber for the new court-house, near 80,000 feet, has been delivered to the contractors, Willis & Sloan, and stacked upon the public square. It is of superior quality, and was furnished by Warren & Toon, proprietors of the Bolivar Steam Saw Mill. W. C. Mashburn & Co., who have the contract for furnishing the brick, some 500,000, are pushing their work along at a rapid rate, and will be enabled to deliver at least 250,000 of standard brick by the middle of September. We learn it is the intention of our old friend, C. R. TRIGG, of Memphis, who is to do the brick work and masonry, to commence on the foundation of the structure about the first of October next. Mr. Willis, one of the contractors, was in our town this week “shaping the course of things.” He returned to Memphis last Wednesday.
