COUNTY FUNDS.—In the Washing ton Nows, of July 21, we lound tlio following note, addressed to the Editor, requesting the publication of a inemoiinl to the Inferior Comt of Wilkes county Wo do not publish llio memorial because the nolo explains the object of it • To the Editoi' of the News r The Commissioners of the Washington Academy request the publication of tho enclosed memorial pro- Rented in thoir behalf hy John Burch, Esq to tho In lerior Court of this county, at its meeting on tho Gtli inst. The Court having refused to make the appro priation asked tor in this memorial, an appeal is now made to tho public fueling and interest, to the pnlrio- tie spirit of the county, if these cannot bo aroused to the loliefoftliH Academy, tho Commissioners will, before sufTi ring a sacrifice of this valuable pronolty, make one other dibit They wdl ihcn make un up plication to the Legislature, that the reproach of Bitch sacrifice shall not rest on the Commissioners. It is reasonably presumed that the Legislature,seeing that Wilkes county lias been receiving tho one-half of tho public tax, nnd that she has made no puhlic im provement, out of tho county funds, for years past, and that her funds on papku are ample ; a grant may ho obtained of a portion of tho tax coming to this county Ibr tho redemption of its Academy debt.— Should this fail, the Commissioners will feel that they have digelutged their obligation to tho public, ami will witness n ith deep regret the necessity which hr ngs the Academy property to the hammer.” The organization of tlio courts of this Stale ha s led the Legislature to confide to tho Inferior courts, tin disposition of the county funds, and tlio funds ap propriated for public schools and other Bcininurics of learning, when not especially intrusted to particular incur os or commissioners. Much censure cannot bo attached ’.o the Legislature j for it was natural to sup Tho views, feelings, ami passions of tho justices nnd of tho trustees, notnn frequently in contact. They do not support each other as they should do.— If the poor schools want assistance, the trustees of the academics will not afford it. And if the academies are in need of support, the justices are deaf to the entreatine of the trustees, and, consequently, to the welfare and the Interest of thn counties and their citizens. They put aside their duty towards their follow cotmtymen to gratify private animosity, envy, or a low, despi- l»le spirit of opposition. This conflict between tho justices of inferior courts nml the commis sioners of academies have already hnppciiml justices of the inferior courts have refused assis tance to the academics, when the county funds wore ample. &.the counties were aide to part with u portion of them, without injuring other public necessities. Thus five men bad it in their power, to thwart tlic intentions of tin* legisla ture, and to render abortive, ail the w’wo plans adopted for the improvement of the minds of our youths, and for the dissemination of useful knowledge among the people generally. The legislature will have to apply u remedy to ilii* evil. It will be more proper, that the public i schools and academics, should b»* placed under i the government of tho same ’iudi\blinds. Il'| they .'amain as nt present organized, no benefit 1 can possibly result to tho rising generation, from tin;sums appropriated by the s;a:c Ibr tlio support of public schools and nrn lemi-'s. We have said enough, we imp**, to draw the j attention of tli .* people to tin* subject of thc<e remark*. If we are saver** in tlm n, i i* owing to the ardent desire we feel fur the welfare of the state, which can best bo accomplished by promoting the welfare of encli county, ami to the desire to sec every brunch ol’rhc .-t.i-o gov ernment properly and impar;: fly ndminis:mrd INTERNAL LMFROVEMEXT.—After commenting on our remarks published a few weeks ago, under the title of •• Internal I:ti provement,” the Athenian coin hides v\ ii!i the follow ing recommendations, v\ Inch deserve at lentiotiQ* reflection, Any thing written or sai l upon the internal improvement of the stale, w iil always he of interest tons, especially when pci* tiuently and cogently presented, and will cer tainly have n place in our columns.

Many of the Head men of the Nation have visited Columbus for the purpose of enquiring into the cause of the alarm, and they till concur in denouncing the report ns false, and totally unfounded. They deny that the question of wur with the white! was agitated in their councils, &. notwitbsiand ing the Agent’s notorious hostility to veracity they cannot conceive what kind of statements be could have made to the War Department sufficient to indue** the, Government to array a military force against them on the frontiers. We understand that many of them will call up on the Agent in n few days to know of him what rejnesentations he has made to the S' rctary of War, and the facts upon which he 'predicated his communication. We are anx ions to see the prevaricating answer he will give them. We doubt very much whether he w ill he able to justify himself for the alarm that be excited. We should not be at all &nrprised if the whole affair were to turn out nothing more than a little faux /irr* of the amiable, accom plislied nnd highly disinterested agent. Many individuals who were not ignorant of some ol the leading admirable trails of this Geutlemnn’i character, believed from the first, that the matter wns only a hoax resorted to for the ac eomplisliment of some patriotic, benevolent and elevated purpose. They could nut possibly entertain the idea that danger was brewing nml lie steadfast ; and it was equally ns great piece of credulity to suppose that there could be much truth in any of bis statements, mas much as it is pretty well known that that is an » instrument 11m often employed by him in elfe i jiug his designs. { \ COMMUNICATED. Mr. Lamar- — An unnecessary alarm having been excited among the frontier inhabitants, predicated in some degree on a misconception *ir misconstruction of the statement ol the Agent, as well ns other exaggerated ami mi founded reports, we have thought proper, in or fler that this affair may he cu» '•roctly represent ed, to give you a detail of a co '‘vorsniion had r st rtii the Agent on throe different occasions, on this subject. He stated to us, that he* had been 2"prised of a secret rouvtrii having ht^B held j .Vv the Indians, in which they had conn: i° /determination to send deputations, am! done so, to the several Indian tribes, to asccr tain whether the same talk bad been sent to J them by the President ns that which they bad received, ami if so to take a stand in opposi ? lion to the views of the Government, and do as ■- much injury as they could, and then die on ! their land,—this information be bad derived .! from a Chief, us also from some private lnrii- , ant*, some time previous. We are informed / that the deputations that were sent to the Semi J noies, had been instructed to ascertain if l there were any English or Spanish vessels ^ along the const, from whom they could procure i ammunition: lie had ulso learned that Ridge was preparing a talk for the Cherokecs, in which j they were ml vised not to give up their lands in accordance with the wishes ol tho Govern- luma. He informed us he hail communicated . j this information to the War Department, that f such measures might be adopted ns they might - deem expedient. Col. Crowell treated the mal- ' ter lightly, nnd had no apprehensions ol his own (1 safety or any immediate danger to the frontier inhabitants ; he had no doubt tha* they (the Creeks) had determined in their own mind to 7 proceed to hostility, but that its acconiplish- I tuent depended on so many and such remote I contingencies, that he thought it uncertain, or J rather improbable, whether they would effect it. He represented tho improbability of the Choctaws and Chjclcasnws acting in concert with them, and other obstacles to the accom plishmoiit of their rash designs—He further r.atcj that he bad bccu furnished with an uffi ,n0n ld vo«U|M»so llio Inferior court, in whom no con- fiih ime cr.uhl b< placed, nnd who would not *nkc tho warmest intercut in thn concerns of their county-— Natural as the supposition was, yet experience ’ has shown that it wns erroneous, and ill founded in every respect Experience, Ibr these last 20 years, has proved to us, that tho county funds have been wretch illy managed, even dilapidated, and that the wise intentions of the Legislature, respecting public schools ami academics, tlm public roads nnd bridges, have been frustrated, hy tho negligence, misconduct, or criminal indulgence of tlio just ces of tho Inferior e«'tirts, nr of their subordinate, utlicera We confess that our language is stiong, and that tc ruse such h numerous body of men ns tho justir the Infeiior court*, thoir clerks, tax collectors and cuivers, would bn piPMimplinn, and unbecoming, if our charges could not bo supported by substantial ol's. But wo appeal to tho citizens of every coun ty in I ho State, to say, whether they know how and vvhnt manner thoir county funds have been appro printed ; am) what actual nrd mrihalnnco has remain I in the hands of the dories of the lnfeiior courts or of »unty treasurers, r.t tiio end of every year for 20, 10, 5.1- 3, or 2 years past—nt the end of the last year ? Wo nppeal to those cmzons.to dony, if they can, that the taxes have been rcgulaily paid by thorn ; that tho amount would havo boon more than sufficient to keep the bridges in repairs, and to construct now ones for thoir convenience ; that the* amount would have been more than sufficient, with the yearly appropriation ** om 1I10 public treasury for that purpose, to cducato every Door child in thoir respective count es We ppeal to them to deny these facts, and to say, whe ther the justices of the Inferior courts have discharg ed thoir duty faithfully and to the satisfaction of the people of Georgia ? If the justices of the Inferior courts have dischnrg d their duty faithfully, why do the citizens of al most every county complain"? Why should decayed bridges rebuilt only after repeated applications, and after some unfortunate accidents have happened ? If oinpluints ore so uniform ami general, something must he wrong Some defect must exist in tho man ngement of the county funds, or tho justices of the Inferior courts are not adequate to the duties required f»om them by tho constitution and the laws. Can it ho to u want of funds ? This may he the case with a few counties. But wo know with certainty, that if llio funds in many counties had been prudently mana ged, those counties would have been at this time rich, nnd their public roads and bridges in good repair.— They would havo had at this time many thousands of dollars at their disposal, free of any incumbrance.— But that money the justices of the Inferior courts lent to Tom, Dick nnd Hurry, on along credit During this credit, lire borrower nnd securities removed from county to another, or from the State, or died, or became insolvent, and the money was lost, owing to negligence, indilYoronco, or other criminal cause.— Otherwise, this money wns left in tho hands of frau dulent clerks, who speculated with it, or lent it to their friends, and in many instances to tho justices of the inferior omuls themselves. Those friends, and the justices, refunded the clerks, if they could ; if not, the county had to whistle fo» it ; no money could be obtained fiom tlio clerks, and very seldom from their securities. During the time that this money was changing hands, in different ways nnd shapes, the people npplied in vain for new bridges ; the poo pie applied in vain for tho establishment of puhlic Is No money remained in tlio Treasury of the county The people asked what had benomo of it — The answer wns, “ wo don’t know,” or it is snug in in the hands of the treasurer, in tho shape of duo- bills, good notes bearing interest Snug, indeed, was the money, for it was the lust time the people ever hom'd of it. l*’or tho negligence and misconduct of the justices oflhe inferior couits, travellers are drown ed in creeks ; farmers have their horses crippled, hy crossing on broken bridge* and execrable roads and pool lathers nnd mothers have tlio mortification to see their children becoming vagabonds, or growing up in ignornneo, for the want of schools The material defect in the law intrusting the coun ty funds to the justices of the inferior courts, is the obsenco of all accountability <*n their part. Tho in ferior courts can dispose of the county funds without being accountable to any body. No public statement is ever made of their doings and actings. And if the grand juries examine once a y^nr the books, it is done go loosely, and with so little attention, that the justi ces of the inferior courts, (who aro almost always lilllo BRITISH COURT OF CIIANCEUV- — In (Kin If Mist* of Lords, the L^nl Chancellor, ill muving (fie N.'i’uiiil rvmling of llio liill rein- ling to (lie iiiipruvoiiiculd in in" tlio court rf rlinnritv. stnti'il tlmt there wns no less n sum ilmn £10.000,(11)0 [i 177,000 000,] iiu.lcr the Ac countant General of Clinnrery, llio greater pu t of tvliirli was au object of litigation.

The duty of these sub-engineers will he personally to superintend the execution of tho wotk in his particular sec tion, under the direction of tin* chief engineer to attend to all (he details of that section ; keep the bonks, make out reports. & <*. Lei an over seer he also engaged for each M otion, whose duty it shall be to oversee the hands, under the direction oftlm sub-engineer, manage and di reel them in their labors, attend to their proper treatment ns to work, diet, lodging, &e. nnd when sick medicine and attendance.

There will he no letting out sections to the lowest bidder, through which work is often so slightly done in one season, as to he washed away or become useless by the next ; no trou ble with contractors, who arc often us ignorant of their business as the labourer they employ ; no delays in the work by incompetent underta Iters, or hy quarrels between them and their workmen. There is no doubt that this plan will also be cheaper than letting out such work by contract; and at the termination of the wotk the hands might he disposed of, and nearly thn whole or perhaps quite their original cost re turned to (he treasury.

If they cannot bo ma de accountable, the Legislature should adopt some other plan, hy which the officers intrusted with the funds, should perform their duties at their risk and peril. Tho funds should never be permitted to bo loaned out to private indivi duals If any county havo disposable funds, let it in vest them iu secure and profitable stock, which can bo turned into cash at a moment’s warning. Let the officers, charge with the disposal of the county luuds, publish every year, a statements of the receipts at?d disbursements of the year, in detail Let 10, . r »0,100, or 1000 copies be copied or printed, and distributed through tho county, that the people may sec how their money has been expended. If it has been wasted or mismanaged, a remedy will certainly bo ipplicd ; the people will not continually complain as they now do Another evil results from the manner tho county funds are intrusted. The Inferior courts havo at their disposal tlm poor school fond; trustees or commis sioners havo academies under their exclusive control; and ail iu the ?aipc counties This should not ho eo.

That Intemperance is a growing evil, is a fact in conliovertiblo ; and that it is now spreading its bane fid eftm u ov«r oar country, and reducing to want the affectionatu wile with the Riniling infants of her bo som, cannot bo denied. But Ihe groat question is, how is this evil to bo arrested—In what manner shall this Hydra of our land bo suhduad — VVliat plan shall bo pursued, to snatch from ruin, tlio rising generation ? Those, Brethren, aro questions of (lie deopest impor tance, and should lie brought home to the heart of overv professor of Christ. | Imvo often heard it marked by a pious old gentleman of my acquain tum’o, “ that in order to keep cloan streets, every man most sweep befi.ru his own doora remark that con tains a moral, worthy to bo obsurvod by all classes of men. Wc, as Christians, aro hurling our bitteicst anathemas against intemperance ; nnd in doing which only dischargo a doty that is incumbent upon us but sonic, even go so far as to say “that all who drink spirit, or make use of it in any manner, should he discountenanced by the community I fimr that ;lt havo a zeal that is not according to knowledge 1 I would say to them and many others who are 1 uidest in thoir ery against intompernnee, at this time to read John's Gospel, Till chapter, 3, -1, and 5 versos I.' t mo nslt if wo, ns Christians, aro doing what wo should in this groat cause—have wc put our hands tho Work—Have wc hurled the demon Rum from r dwellings —Have wc resolved to taste no more of this soul poisoning draught —or aro wc saying to non professors, to abstain fioin all these things, while wc remain in tho same situation as wo were, before this matter w.i* so much agitated. Instead of saying to immortal sinners around us, conic, lot us bury this in toxieating beverage, wo tell them that they should do if, while wo stand entirely aloof Ilovv many pi fussing Christians are there in Georgia, who not onl drink spirit themselves, but sell and retail by tho hall' pint, litis destroyer of earthly happiness? And is possible, that immortals, who are hoping to rest with God, when tlio thread of life is cut, aro selling and retailing this deadly cup ? Yes, it is not only possi blc, but an undeniable fact, for tlio correctness of which I stand pledged ; ami not only private mom hi rs of the Church arc guilty of this sin, but (Iiofc who hold official stations nro likowiso culpable.— What a spoctaclu is ibis for the world to gaze nt — People who say, they aro going to Heaven, and at thn sam» time scattering tho seeds of that poison, from which spring discord nnd brutality, that sickens fho heart and pnrnlizos the efforts of every good man in tho community. I would ask such if they haven conscience void of offence toward God and man ; or whether they can calmly roposo upon their pillows, after u day spent in dealing out ruin, without feeling n sting of tho soul that is indescribable ? Such pro* fessors mav at least get safely into the haven of re- po-.o— I will not dare limit, the power of the Almigli tv ; but I awfully fear many such, will hear from tho lips of “ him that ppuko as never man spako,” I never knew you,—deport ye workers of iniquity. Bcfi.ro we c.un ever liopo to seo this great evil ba nished from our country, or the r.auso of temperance succeed, ior, must sot the example, and not say to tho world go, but, follow. Ho long as ire drink and »uf fur our private nnd official members to sell and retail this *' bane of lifu,’’ so long will wretchedness and inisory fill our country uud leanness and sterrility our churches. With regard to thn observance of the Sabbath, I shall soy but little. When Christians learn to keep that day Indy, then and not till then, may wo indulge the hope of seeing it universally hallowed Friend how many of you keep your servants nnd carriages engaged tho greater part of tho day, merely to ride ono bundled yards to Church ? How many of you prepare all your food on that day, instead of having it done on Snturday, rind thereby permitting your ser vants to go to the bouse of prayer and learn to keep holy that duv, on which the Lord of Glory arose from the tomb Tlicso things must be corrected, or we will never see tho Habbath respected as it should be. As long as Christians break the Sabbath in tlicso, and all other respecta, the community will think, (nnd think rightly too) thnt they have o sufficient license for doing likowiso May the good Lord of tfio Uni verse help us all, of every denomination, to livo moro temporal© and hallow moro strictly llio Sabbath day , .1 : I r A KII'UilKtldC'P I l’rizu nf 001)1 3 Prizes of $1,000 L (Jo 4,000 0 do 500 1 (tn ^ ,500 | do 100 1 do a ooo 41 do 00 l do 1,0-141 41 «fci!.
