Milledgeville Taxes-
Without knowledge or authority of
the Tax-paying citizens, a majority of
the Town Council has applied to the Le
gislature to alter the City Charter so as
to give to the Council unlimited and most
dangerous power of Taxatiou. We call
upon the people of Milledgeville to re
sist at once. Immediate action is ne
cessary. Who authorized the City Coun
cil to ask for more power of taxing the
people? This is goiugbackwards. The
original power of the Town Council was
s'riclhj limited to a tax of one eighth of
of thestate Tax. In 1S18 the Conncil
g)t a new law passed, like the one now
b ferj the Legislature, giving the Coun
cil unlimited power of taxing; the peo
ple bore it eight years, until it became
intolerable, and in 1826, the people
roused up and had this dangerous power
repealed, aud a strict limit was put upon
tiie taxing power of the Conncil. Then
in 1S36, the samo strict limit was re-en
acted in the new City Charter, and that
Charter of 1836, has continued to this
Death of Bichard N. Stubbs.
On Thursday last, the friends and ac
quaintances of the above named gentle
man followed his remains to their last
resting place in the Milledgeville ceme
tery. Our young and promising friend,
died in Savannah on Wednesday, the
15th inst. of Corjestive fever. Sad i*a
deed is it to be called upon to mourn
he loss of an old and esteemed citizen
who has 6ervcd well his day and genera
tion ; but sadder still to be summoned
to lay away a youug, promising, ener
getic, truthful and accomplished young
man, for such was our friend. He was
one of those whose life gave evidence of
future usefulness, and though just Btep
ping into active life, he had already
made his mark. He was born at Mid
way, near Milledgeville, and had enter
ed his 23d year. The Savannah News
pays him the following just notice :
Death of R. N. Stubiis, Esq—We
regret to announce tho death of Richard
N. Stubby, Esq , which occurred yester*
day morning from conjestive chilis, after
a few days illness. Mr. Stubbs was one
of the most promising youug men of
Savannah, aud his sudden death has cast
a gloom over a large circle of friends.—
His remains were sent to Milledgeville
by last evening’s train, and were escor
ted to the depot by the members of Sol
omon’s Lodge No. 1, F. A. M , of which
he was an esteemed member, and a
number of brethren of other lodges in
the city, besides a largo number of sor
rowing friends.
Death of Abram Foard.—We are call

vious announcement, on Friday evening,
Nov. 17, at the Good Templars Hall,
the public were pleasantly entertained
by an address from Capt. W. W. Wil
liamson, a prominent young lawyer of
our city. A controlling idea in the lec
ture was, the duty of every ono to exert
a good influence so long as there is ‘‘good
uudone for the living to do.” In his
usual happy manner, the speaker passed
from the geueral topic of the power of
good influences, aud made an earnest ap
peal to all to use that power in behalf

I take this method of announcing to

course of conduct other candidates should

same light that I extend to them, viz :
to pursue that course which I deem the
most proper under the circumstances,
which is simply ag follows : Coming be
fore the people for a public office, I do
not feel that I would have a right to ex
pect their suffrages without fir6t declar
ing explicitly the position I occupy. For
tho benefit of those who may not know
it I would simply state that 1 am a Dem
ocrat, openly, avowedly, unequivocally
and unqualifiedly. To those who may
differ with me in public opinion, I would
say that they know me sufficiently well
to know that if elected I will do justice
to all. Respectfully,

Presentments of the Grand Jarj,
GEORGIA, Baldwin County.
SUPERIOR COURT, )
August Term, 1871. $
W E, the Grand Jurors, sworn, chosen and se
lected for the said August Term, have dili
gently searched info the affair* of the county, and
as the result of our investigations make the fol
lowing presentments:
We have examined the Pubic Build.ngs, ai d
find the county jail neatly and well kept, and rec
ommend that a gutter be attached to the west end,
to convey the waste water from the wall. We al
so r.commend the roof to be repaired as necessity
requires, at the loweat bid.
We also recommend the ordering to rent the
lands belonging to the county known aa the Grady
place, to the highest bidder tor the term of three
years.
We find the Roads throughout the county re
cently worked and in good order.
After due examination we fiud the records of
the Ordinary, Treasurer, and-Clerk’s office kept
in a neat, legible and correct manner.
We also find the Ordinary and Treasurer's re
ports to correspond with their books and herewith
submit the same :
Orncs or Ordissrt or Baldwin C< u»tt >
August 28, 1371. \
To the Grand Jury of said county i
I have the hou r to present to your honorable body
the following statement of couuty finances :
1st. Aa shown by the report of the County Treasu
rer. the preseut debt of which he is cognizant, amounts
to the sum of |8S,693 %
Of the above the following amounts are due
and will be due, during the next twelve
months, viz:
Bonds $4 ,000 00
Interest on Bonded Debt 5,530 00
Outstandiug debts for various county
purposes, not Bonded, 4,663 93
$14 19393
Current and necessary expenses of the County from
date to 28th August, 1872.
The following amounts are necessary to be raised
for the support of the county, viz :
For Jail $547 00
For Court House, viz. Kent of Build
ing, Insolvent Costs, Bailiffs, Ex
tra pay of officers, Feed of Juries,
Horse Hire, Fuel, Lights, Station
ery, Ac $1800 00
Paupers UI6 00
Roads aud Bridges 500 00
Pay of Jurors 115-.J oo
Pay of Tax Receiver 545 00
Pay of Tax Collector 1091 26
Pay of County Treasurer 909 00
... $7660 26
Add previous amount already due, viz: 14,193 00
Making total ain’t due and to become due by — —
28th August. 1872 $21,854 19
By the returns of the Receiver of Taxes I fiud that
for th a year $1,230,183 are presented. Upon tins
amount it will be for you to assess such a sum as will
pay tor the Couuty the above sum of $21,854 18.
At first view this amount will seem large, but to a
reasonable mind, these fuels are presented: First
$9,530 00 of the above amount is expended to pay
Bonds and Interest on the Bonded Debt ot the Coau-
ty, created by the Inferior Court of the County for
the Macon and Augusta Railroad, and to build the
Oconee River Bridge, $14000. Now deduct said
amount of $ 1,530 from the total amount $21,854 19,
and it is evideut that it only requires $12,324 19 to
detiay the expenses of Baldwin Couuty. Besides
this the county has built fire other bridges, at a large
cost, for the convenience of the people of the couuly.
As an offset tothase liabilities it is to be remember
ed that the county owns, in its own right, sixty thous
and dollars worth of stock in the said ,'u icon and
Augusta Railroad, besides the above named bridges,
which will last in one case for many years, and iu the
other will hr a perpetual soared of income to the
coaaty
All of which is respectfully submitted by
M. It BELL,
Ordinary of Baldwin County.
To the Grand Jury of the County of Baldwin:
Gentlemen- I have the honor to report to your hon
orable body nv, receipts and disbursements siuce last
report, to-wit:
Received on General Tax $2,651 87
Whiskey 311 91
Toil on Ot . -e Bridge 266 01
$ ' 229 79
And disbursed in same time J 244 93
Balance iu my favor 5 14
I further report the following indebtedness o! the
couuty, to-wit:
Total bonded debt of County $78,500 00
luterest due on said debt January l, 1872 5,530 00
Outstanding debt for various county purposes
and uot bonded 4.663 96
$88,693 96
All of which is respectfully submitted by
II. TEMPLE3,
County Treasuier.
Inasmuch as the present Grand Jury failed at
the regular August Term to recommend the Or
dinary to levy a general tax for county purposes,
according to bis reports, ana as he bas ordered ■:
less amount of taxes to be collected, and in an
itemized manner, which ren lets it inconvenient
for the Collector and Treasurer to properly adjust,
we therefore recommend that the aggregate tax
as assessed by the Ordinary be received and paid
out by the Tieasurer for county purposes without
discrimination
We also recommend that all county scrip be re
ceived by the Tax Culiector for county taxes, with
out. regard to their date.
We find upon the Ordinary’s record the follow
ing statement in regard to the bonded debt Of the
county, viz : $4 5U0 on old Oconee bridge—$4006
of which is due and to become due Jan. 1st, 1872;
14 bonds of $10')0 each for new bridge, the first
of which becomes due Jau. 1st. 1874, the last Jan.
1st, 1887.
We also find 7 Railroad bonds of $30(JC each,
issued May 26th, 1863; 4 R. R. bones of same de
nomination, issued July 1st, 1866 ; 5 R. li. bonds
of same amouuts, issued Feb 20tb, 1869. aud 4
R. R. bonds of like character, July 27th, 1869 :
making 20 bonds ot $3000 each, equal to $6>l,O00.
The first boDd becomes due Jan. 1st, 1873 and
each year thereafter until the last, which becomes
due Jan. 1st, 1892 All ef the aforesaid bonds
bear interest from their respective dates until paid.
Inasmuch as the Congress of the United States
has generously donated to the State ot Georgia
270,000 acres of public lands to be applied to the
current expenses of a Military, Mechanical and
Agricultural College, we nspeetfully call the at
tention of the present Legislature to the valuable
public buildings now unoccupied in {he city of
Milledgeville.
We mast respectfully recommend to the General
Assembly of this State now iu session, tbe rgent
and pressing necessity tor the immediate repeal of
the laws now in force, giving the Ordinal ■,* of
counties exclusive control over all county m liters.
And we urgently tecommend th t such laws as
may be necessary reinstating the eld system ef the
Inferior Court be passed.
We re.-pectfully tender our thanks to bis honor
Juuge P. B. Robinson, and the 8pjicitor General,
Col. Fleming Jordan, for tbeit kindness and cour
tesy extended to our body.
