It is understood that Mr. Parrott will appeal. HAWES vs HOVIOUS - Injunction is made perpetual. This now amounts to nothing as the necessity for injunction no longer exists, and all now remaining to contend for is involved in the case of HAWES vs HOVIOUS and Ames - Demurrer to complaint overruled, and defendants have leave to answer. COUNTY COURT. - In chambers, on Monday last, Hon. B.F. Fox, County Judge, heard the application of the Crystal Spring Water Company for certain waters in the western portion of San Mateo County (all of them, we believe.) The survey not having been made, and counsel for the company therefore being unable to state their wants definitely, a continuance till the first Monday in July was asked and granted. This was the only case before the court. LEGAL. - Our readers will observe, by reading the advertisement in another column, that Wm. T. Gough, Esq., has formed a co-partnership with Tully R. Wise, of San Francisco, for the practice of law. Mr. G. will give special attention to business in this county. This will meet the wishes of his host of friends.

Two lots on the west side of Redwood Creek, opposite Livingston's warehouse have been purchased, we are informed, for that purpose, and the building will shortly be commenced. Mr. Morrison, by whom the mill will be built and owned, is a gentleman whose enterprising spirit is highly commended by those who know him, and we hope his success in the project he is about to undertake, will be equal to his wishes in every respect.
