HllDAY MORNING, OCT. 87»h. beading mattes on every page. report of the comptroller oeteral / Com f’TROLt er Gsvbral's Office, Milledgeville, Oct. 16, I860, j //,, £rrellency James Johnson, /’ruoisiotutl Governor of Georgia : * 1B —Your communication requesting the nihceriof the State House Department to “re port to you the condition of their offices, on or before the loth of October,” has been received — As the law requires the Comptroller General to make his Annual Report for the use of the Leg islature, to the Governor, on the 15th of October in each and every year, and as this report will juruish you with all the information |asked for, the same is hereby submitted, which is £S fol lows : "In compliance with the provisions of Acts of 1'ccetnher2Stb, 1818, December lltb, 1859, and the Code, adopted in I860. I have the honor to lay before your Excellency a statement of the re ceipts and payments at the Treasury during the fbcal jear 1865 ; a statement of the condition of the Public Debt; a statement of the Debts or As set, belonging to the State; a statement of the K iucational Fund, its annnal income, <te.; and other matters required of this office. In makiDg this Report, I have first to state, that, upon bate ancing the accounts between the Treasury and tbi J office, there is a “Cash balance" in the Treasury, oi ; : : : $5,201,086 50 Hut with tbo exception of $14,750 United States currency, and a few thousand dollars in State Tteatury Dotes and State Change Bills, the bal ance fas I am informed by the Treasurer,) is in Confederate Treasury Notes, which may be con sidered worthless. Assets belonging to the State. Herewith is furnished a statement ot the “As sets belonging to the State,” as shown by the hooks and papers of the Treasury and Comptrol, icr (ieoerai’s offices, viz : shares of stock in Bank of State ot Georgia $183 300 00 I'.") chares of stock in tank of Au gusta 89,000 00 —1 shares of stock in the Georgia Railroad and Banking Company.. 18,600 OO i on 1 shares of stock in the Atlantic and Gulf Railroad Company 700,000 00 fentrnl Bank Assets, estimated by , GeD.

This Road, however, paid into the State Treasury, as nett earnings, in 1850, $420,000; 1 -•••>, #450,000; 1861, $438,000; 1862, #440.000, and in 1863, $1,650,000. In relation to these* Assets, I consider them all good tor what they call for, except the Bank stocks. The stock in the Georgia Railroad and Banking Company may be considered undoubt edly good-but the value of the stocks in the Bank ot the State of Georgia, and the Bank of Augusta, cannot at this time be ascertained.— The value placed upon the Assets of the Central Bank were made by Gen. Bethune in 1859, upon a specie valuation. As Gen. Bethune has been absent from the State for several months pnst, no report at this time could be obtained from him.— It is true the stock in the Atlantic A Gulf Rail- 10a d would not now sell at par, but when the road is finished to the Chattahoochee, it is destined to be very profitable. It will then afford a ready and comparatively cheap communication with havancah ar d Brunswick, to the richest portions ol Georgia and Florida, and a part of Alabama; it is thought much of the travel from the North to New Orleans, Ac., will take this road, and it is hefiered it;wiU be one of the most profitable rail roads in the Southern country. Although only running to Tbomasville, it paid into the Treasury last rear a dividend of $56,000. The uotes of Messrs. H. Brigham and others were given for 1,650 bales of cotton that belong ed to iheState, and that were in Savannah when thm nty was captured by Gen. Sherman. The facts are substantially these: On the approach ot Geo. Sherman towards Savannah, the agent of 'he Stale sold the cotton to Messrs. Brigham and others, on -certain terms. Gov. Brown, on re ceiving notice lrom the agent, refused to ratify sale, but this was not communicated to the jtgent until after the capture. I have been relia- - reformed that the parties giving these notes are witlmg to pay the same in Georgia Treasury c,il es ot tue last issue—but in consequence of *fiai is above stated, I have been advised by four Excellency not to attempt to collect these notes until some action has been taken by the lonventioa or Legislature upon the same. As the law does not authorize the Comptrol- cr General or Treasurer to lace any atipn- at , value “pon the Western & Atlantic Bail ’ll, oi courses I cannot do so. But that some Mca may be formed of its value, I deem it pro- i ‘ 10 stale that, in 1859, it paid as nett earn- 1*'“'“ tl10 State Treasury, 4420,000; in 8U ,’ 5100,000; in 1861, $438,000; in 1862, in ?“ d in 1863 ‘ 1,650,000—and that for n * w ^ en a D other property was returned ixal >on at a lower valuation than it was «J«din 185 9,l860orl861, a Committee th„ , v • gis l ature > appointed to examine into ^, ) * l * air f of the road, &c., valued it at $7,- . f 68. As the United States troops had i,,^i°n of a part of the Road the first part ties, and consenqnently, I cannot report any “Statistics or Taxables, &c., in Georgia, for 1865.” Nevertheless, as the Legislature, in enacting its tax laws, will need a ready refer ence to the valuations put upon property, &c._ by the tax payers themselves for several years back, I have concluded to furnish 'the follow, ing table, showing the value placed npon pro perty, for taxation, by the tax payers them selves for the past six years, as taken from the tax books on file in this office. As the Banks and railroads paid their taxes directly to the State 'Treasurer, of course the capital stocks. &C., of these institutions are not included in this table.

The why the item of “Merchandise” was so much in creased in 1863 and 1864, was because Cotton, DGt belonging to the original producer, was tax ed as Merchandise in these years, and Tax Re ceivers no doubt entered Cotton in the oolumn of “Merchandise ” In 1864, but 108 counties oat of 132, made re turns.

These bonds are the only bonds authori zed to be issued since the Ordinance of Seces sion, that have been issued. The annual inter est on the same is $170,870. How much of the back interest on bonds belongs to these bonds I cannot stale, as the conpon book be longs to, and is kept in, the Treasury Office. As there can be no taxes collected this year, and no other revenue will likely come into the Treasury during the year, the State will have to anticipate her taxes for next year, by a tem porary loan for a part of the above, and issue bonds for the other part—and if it should be preferred by capitalists, a lien should be given upon the Western & Atlantic ltalroad to se cure the payment of the. principal and inter est^ the bonds for the money thus obtained. It is true this road has been damaged consid erably, (although now in running order,) and it will not pay any money into the Treasury shortly, as its nett proceeds will, for a time, be needed to bnild new /termanent bridges on the road,- but from its location, and the evi dences of the past, it is bound again, before long, to yield a large revenue to the State.— It is very valuable—and 1 doubt not that the State could readily dispose of her bonds for the money she now needs, or will shortly need, npon advantageous terms, by pledging the road for the payment of the principal and interest of the bonds. It is true that, by enactment of the Legisla tures, there is already a lien upon the road for about $2,000,000 bonds issued fur the buildiDg and completing said road, (only $83,000 of which is now due, and no more will be due in several years,(yet the road is so very valuablo, this lien eught not to affect the matter, where only $1,000,- 000 or $2,000,000 more is added to the same. The law makes it the duty of the Comptroller General to sngzest in his annual report such amendments and improvements in the revenue law* as bis experience and observation may ap prove. But a convention of the people, to amend the State Constitution, will assemble in this place shortly, and some time before any Legislature will assemble, and|a* I know not to what extent it may alter the Oonsiitution ot the State ; -as we have bain declared without a legal State organization at present; and as for several months past, eon tinual changes or aspects have been given to my observation as to the condition of things, and as we can better tell two or three months hence, (about which time it is supposed the Legislature will assemble,) what system of taxation will be best for our State, I have concluded to omit any tax system, or recommendation, at present, bnt stand ready to cheerfully respond to any call from the Legislature, or its Finance C-.mmittee, should either of them desire to have my “exrerience and observation” npon the sulject. The ‘‘Table’’ givn In the preceding part of this Report will give, tho Legislature some idea of the material or taxable wealth of the State at this time, after ex cluding slaves. I am happy to say that, from tho hieh rent paid for houses, and the sale of real estate iu some qf the cities of Georgia, in my opinion real estate in several, if not in many cities and towns in the State, would now sell for as much, if not more, than it was returned for taxa« tion in 1859, 1860, 1861, or 1862. Land gener ally would not, and may not shortly, sell for as much as it was returned for taxation in these years, although t’ie valuations are low; never theless, from present indications, I see no reasons why the other items of taxation in said “table” should be less than in 1.360, unless it he the item of^'Mooey and Solvent Debts.” But the results ot; the war, re-organization, Ac., can be better seen when the Legislature meets than at this time, and I therefore prefer to submit mv views at that time, if desired, Without at this time suggesting any system of taxation, or making any recommendation as to taxation, I will close this subject bv merely say ing the t, by reference to the “table” alluded to, it will be seen that an advalorem tax of 50 cents on the $100 valuation of 1860 (which was $369 - 627,722. after excluding slaves,) would yield a tax ot $1,848,139 60, and that 25 cents on the $100, would yie d $924,069 80. Surely- then, the State of Georgia with her large Assets and ma terial wealth, aod with her great mineral re sources hardly yet touched in the way of develop ment and which in the course of time must be immensely valuable, ought not to fail at this time to raise what money she may need upon advan tageous and equitable terms. |TO BE CONTINUED.] Military Officers Take no Cognizance or Civil Cases—Application wa< made yesterday by a gentleman to Justice F. M. Brqpks to get possession of his house occupied by some negroes. As negroes wers concerned in the mstter. Justice B. referred him to the Provost v srah&I. The latter official returned a note to the Justice stating thst the military authorities would ootand could net take oognizaoce of civil cases, no matter whether the parties be white or black. Finding that be had full power over the ease, and that the negroes had no right to the bonse, the Sheriff was directed by Justice B. to torn oat the darker occupants sod f<TC the owner posccsmon.-auWiM Sun, \ith. In the small settlement known as Blazing Star, about five miles from Rahway, N. J., the boiler of John A. Steinbauser’g establishment for preparing phosphate of lime exploded abojit five o’clock Tuesday afternoon with such ter rible effect that the building, a frame 100 feet square was entirely wrecked, and the tubular boiler, 14 1-2 by 16 feet, hur ed to a distance of 400 yards from the place, and lOo feet high, when it struck the earth throwing up the dirt to a great be gbt, and then rebounded 85 feet further. A number of men were in the bnilding, and three of them who stood near the boiler were killed, two of them instaDtly, bnt the third lived until the following morning. The names of the killed were A. F. Beyse, Superintendent, a resident of the vicinity: J. Master, boilermaker of this city, and J. Broush, fireman, of Williamsburgh. Beyse’s clothes were torn completely from his body, and Broush’s sknll was crushed to atoms, rendering it probable that neither of the two unfortunate men wag conscious of the least suffering.— Master did not believe he was seriously hart, and the following morning was walking about when he combined of a difficulty of breath ing. His red^ation grew shorter t and shor ter for two or three hours, when he expired. “The accident is ascribed to the defective steam- guage which wag purchased in this city. Mr. Beyse had no idea ot the quantity of steam in the boiler (and be was an experienced engineer, haviDg been in one of our gunboats, and on the Otsego at the time of her destruction by a torpe do) aod therefore anticipated no danger, suppos ing the gauge would indicate the pleasure upon the boiler. AH of the killed were men of family, and thei r remains were promptly cared for by Mr. Stein' bauser, aod lots purchased for their interment in Greenwood Cemetery. He hag also ganercyisly offered to provide, we understand, for the widow and children of the Superintendent. A strange circumstances connected with the casualty is that Beyse seemed to have a premoni tion of bis fate. When be was in New York last Monday with Steinhauser, he aaid he felt a strong disposition to have bis life insured, and returning home asked bis wife where she would have him buried in the event of his being killed saying he felt as if something were about to hap. pen to him. The boiler had 163 tubes, which were thrown one hundred feet apart, and this fact, with the tremendous force of the explosion indicates that there must have been at least one hundred and fifty pounds ot steam to the square inch.

This Work of which I have been EHitm- and Proprie tor for over Twenty Years, wjiich has had a very heavy subscription and advertising list in every part of the Union, is now established on a secure and Permanent basis. My purpose in the future is to give it a National Character, And to devote all my energies and re- j sources to the development ofthe great material toter- terests of the Union-its Commerce, Agriculture, Manufactures, Internal Improvements, ” tlf i General Industry.) In addition to theee Important topics, the work will embrace discussions upon such great questions of leg islation as affect the relations of the State* the per manency of the Union, and the honor and prosperity of the Country. In an especial manner will itjw devoted to the re establishment ot Sauthern Prosperity, and the bnilding np of its fields of industry and enterprise, rendered necessary nnder the new and altered condi tion of things. The restoration of the South can be effected upon the basis proseded by the President, and no gjeater field could be openc d for the investment of capital now invited thither from every quarter. Its abundant fertile lands invite emigration, which It will be a prominent ob)ect to secure. Regarding the issues of the pastas dead, about which a practical philosophy will not dispute, and those ef the present as living and potential, It is the part of the Rewiiw to accept in good faith the situation, and de dace from <t all that can be promotive of the bee, in- teresta of the whole Country. Offices of the Review will be located at New York, Washington City, Charleston, Nashville, and New Orleans. r r Office, New York, 40 Broadway, octU J. D. B. DsBOW. H M.
