Sheriff Ivey is carrying around a peti tion whioh is being generally signed, asking that lha appointment of a jailor, and feeding tha prisoners be restored by the Legislature to the Sheriff. By an act of 1872, these powers ware taken from that officer and given to tbe Board of County Commissioners. The Sheriff merely asks that the constitutional rights and the attendant feei taken from that office by the set be restored. Our eitlaens think the Sheriff ia correct in this view, and henee some 230 people, comprising bankers, lawyers aud leading men in every class of buainaaa bars signed tba petition. The Sheriff is required to give a bond of *20,000 ; he is responsible for tha safe keeping of prisoners, and it is but just that he should have all Ihe per. quiaitea that have attaohod to tho offlee. Among the first names appear those of Judge Jemea Johnson, Holioitor Genoral Little, Gen. H. L. Beuning, and many other prominent men. It is generally ooucoded that Sheriff Ivey makes one of the beet end most competent olUoers that ever a eounty possessed.

The following was read to the retiring Cuuncil laat night: Columbus, Ga., December 8, 1874. To tlu Mayor and Council: Gentlemen--As is nanal, I beg leave to E resent this repott that your body may now the number, character and etetna of tbe casus against the eity. While it ap pears that tbe litigation it great, moat of it ia hosed upon imaginary wrong*. The cases of Chapman A Threewitn, George Winston, administrator, and Oli ver Williams with the oity are all old ones, brought years ego to recover Ihe amount of the city’s subscription to tbe Chatte- hooobee Railroad and Banking Company. Adding principal and intereat makes the amount sued for about *10,000. These cases were ones disposed of, bat a de cision of the Snpreuie Court brought them before th* courts again. From the best information I oan obtain tha oity will not lose anything by them. Compro mises have been offered the eity, bnt no action has been taken in reference to the matter. Within the past two years the follow ing actions have been brought, and stand on the docket disposed of as follows: John 11. Hamilton ; notion on tbe case; November term, 1874. Continued. Mr. Hamilton olairna *11,090 damages from the oity on account of aicknaaa to himself and family occasioned by water standing in tho large ditch on the east of the oity. Marion E. Gray ; action on the ease; November term, 1874. Continued. This is e snit for *2,000 damages, Mr. Gray claiming that amount in damages to his property on Forsyth street by reason of tho unskillful grading of said street. Wm. Z. Lewis; damages for false im prisonment ; November term, 1874. Con tinued. Thia plaintiff claims he ia dam aged lo tho amount of *2,000 on aooount of being imprisoned by the oity polios in tho guard-hones. Cary llarefield ; damages for false im prisonment; November term, 1874. Dis missed. He claimed *5,000 for being imprisoned in the guard-honse. Wm. Mnnday, at this term of the Court, received * 105 against the eity for feeding hogs under th* “hag ordinance.” Robert Badkins hoe two cases vs. tbe oily—one claiming *250 damages for re fusing to allow him to sell certain meat in th* market, and the other a writ of Aabeat ctrput, which is now in the Supreme Court, I have, during the year, prosecuted 38 cases before the Mayor's Court, and given a number of written opinions to different city officials who have naked it. I would call the attention of the incom ing Board of Aldermen to tbe faet that tbe rights of the oity to regulate tbe mar ket, the proceedings before the Mayor’s Court, and oollectiou of tax executions, are each imperfect and open to litigation. I wonld, therefore, recommend that some steps be taken to remodel the oharter of tbe oity, and the varioa* amendments thereto, at th* homing session of the Leg islature. Respectfully submitted, Cuxa.

Mayor Mcllhenny then spoke in sub stance sa follows; Gentlemen of Council and Fellote-Viti. tene of Dolumbut—Again, through your preferenoe, I have the pleasure of address ing yon from this stand. I confess I do so with some trepidation. I neither desired nor intended to be a candidate for th* offlee this year. I did ran, however, and my election has inoreased tha obligation to you. In a heated contest, such aa wa have passed through, temper may be ex hibited and animosity arise. If aueh be the oaee, let them be forgotten. I cherish ill feeling to none. I am Mayor of Co- Iambus—the ontire city—end - will en deavor to treat all, regardless of person, class or condition, with uprightness, im partiality and exaetness. Home may apprehend that the present Coanoil must he extravagant in expenditure, because of th* general idea that new coanoils mast do something different from others to make them distinguished. No extravagance need be expected; no bonds will be isaned. From my oouverso- tions, individually and collectively, I can aay of the praaant board that it will ba a modal of economy. No bonds ara to be appropriated for any purpose. It shall be my care to see that all offleers over whom I have control do their duty. IT auy one, no matter how humble, shall oome with a well grounded obargs, against a policeman and prove the charge, I promise that offleer ehall (offer. All must uo their duty, and I will see it done ■o far as lies in my power. I hope out intercourse may ba pleasant and agreea ble and that Council may overlook errors that may bo committed.

The Clerk waa instructed to advartiee for proposals for tha usual work, except ing th* feeding of th* mules, and that there be separate bids for publication and advertisement and for job work. ANNUAL nEPOUTS. The Clerk was instructed to have 150 copies of the annuel reports of Council committees printed, and to inolnde tha addresses of the retiring and the present Mayor. PETITION FOU COLOBED SEXTOE. A petition signed by about ninety-eight negroes, inolnding tbe pastors of tha two oolored Methodist chnrohaa, waa read, asking Conncil to appoint B. Forlar, ool ored, sexton of th* oolored oemstery, in stead of Wm. Wadsworth, tha appointee of Mr. Odom, the sexton elaot of the eity. The idea was that Porter was a good reli- giuus man, and Wadsworth an immoral one, ao the petitioner! aay. They give no reason why h* will not make a good sex ton. They seemed to forget, also, that Columbus only haa on* sexton and Coun cil holds him responsible. Tha oolored •exton only is responsible te him. Conn cil, however, received the petition .and referred it to the Committee an Cemetery hereafter to ba appointed. nxaoLunoES.

Alderman Blanchard rose and in a very humorous speech stated some new and un sophisticated oases had beoom* one of us; and in consideration of having had un sought honors thrust upon him that all the members who bad not bean connected with tbe one just retired be allowed to wiue aud supper those who had remained in the Board at aueh time aa they might select. Tbe motion was carried unani mously. The new members ware not al lowed to vote. A new Alderman who put in hia jaw was fined thirteen oigars. Secret session adjourned. At the New York Store.
