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ple bore it eight years, until it became intolerable, and in 1826, the people roused up and had this dangerous power repealed, aud a strict limit was put upon tiie taxing power of the Conncil.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 ed upon to record the death of Mr. A- bram Foard, one of the oldest of cur cit izens. He was about 80 years of age. Good Templars.— According to pre 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 For Potatoes and Onions, go to Sam’l A.

Our community has lost one of its brightest ornaments, and Columbus gained a fair and accom plisbed lady. of temperance. None could resist day.

CASE as a candidate for Mayor at the ensuing election iu De cember next. FOR MAYOR, M. GRIEVE. I take this method of announcing to the citizens of Milledgeville that I am a candidate for Mayor, at the ensuing elec tion. Without assuming to dictate what course of conduct other candidates should pursue, I would respectfully claim the 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, M. GRIEVE. f3^* We are authorized to announce JOHN B. FAIR as a candidate for the office of City Marshal at the ensuing e- lection in December next.

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.
