Mayor** Reports.—City Finance*, dec*
While wo return our thank* to tho Republican
for having placet! in its columns our reply to tho
assault of the present Committee on Finance,
we must be allowed to express no little surpriso
at the flippant manner in which it endeavors to
make it* escape from n serious consideration of
tho subject at issue. Wo submit' to tho public
whether such a paragraph ns tho following does
not exhibit a conscious weakness:
" It will ho found, nller rending tho Georgian’s
nrticle, thut tho fact, the fixed fuel, the fact per
st, ns John Tvlor would say, still remains a*
stated by the Mayor in his lust report ami con
firmed by tho Fiunuce Committee, to wit: that
tho public jlebt has been reduced in three years
§90,803 05. The render will probably enquire,
why then all this controversy 1 We refer him
to the Georgian for an uuswor, for wo do not
know oursolvos.”
It will bo remembered by all who have taken
the trouble to peruse our articles in rcfcrcnco
to tho muttor, that so far from having donied
** tho fact, tho fixed fact, tho fact per sc," to which
tho Republican alludes, 41 to wit: that the public
debt lias been reduced, in throe years, 00,803 05,”
we have invariably, from fifst to last, from the
beginning to the end, iu the urticle which pro
voked the ungracious assault of the Committeo
on Finance, and, in our reply to that assault, as.
sinned it to be true, and reanonod from it ns we
would reason from an axiom in mathematics.
We have never questioned the correctness of the
Mayor’s statement for 1818: and if die Republican
or its renders should enquire, u tch\j then all this
controversy/” and” refer to tho Georgiuu for an
answer,”—wc have simply ts give as our reply,
because the Committee of Finance, iu the strong
est terms which ordinary decency could permit
them to use, called us to an account, and accused
us of “ misrepresentation," for simply supposing
that his Honor had told the truth in tico consecutive
Reports. II;id we received “ the fixed fact," as fixed
for 1848, literally per sc, we should not have pro
voked on attack from tho Committee on Fi-
nance, should not have been compelled to trouble
the Republican with unconscionable requests,
and whatever certain gentlemen, with a remark-
nblo degree of charity may have silently expected
iu tho way of “justice and approbation” from
us, should have heard nothing about “ delusions
in which they hud never indulged;” but because
we saw proper to compare 44 the fixed fact," asfixed
for 1847, with "thefixed fact" as fixed for 1*48, and
a*sumcd(in ordinary justice to the Mayor and the
Committee in Finuiice, who have been a standing
Committee on the Board ns well ns standing candi
date* before the people for tho last three years.)
that thefization for both consecutive years, a fix
ation with which we had nothing wlinteverto do,
a fixation done up to the taste and under tho su
pervision of the Mayor and the Committee on
Finance, yet a fixation in which every individual
in thi* community who pays a tax is deeply inter
ested, was correct and truthful, that moment we
became the subject of a charge of misrepresenta
tion, and the controversy began which tho Re
publican is disposed to regard as 44 Much Ado
About Nothing."
Yet it is not much ado about nothing. There
have been cortain facts already fizeil by this con
troversy which are most important iu their char
acter, and ought to produce a profound impres
sion upon the miuds ofthe people. That the
Mayor's Reportshonldliave/xeda fact iu 1847,
which the Committeo on Finance have found it
necessary to unfix in 1848, is of it*o!f no trifling
matter; That tho names of throe gentlemen should
have come beforo tho public ns the Committee
ou Finance, attesting tho Treasurer’* Report,
and obviously attaching credit to the Mayor’s Re
port of 1847, and that the same identical names
should be appeuded to a public statement in 1848
attaching discredit to the same identical Report,
is not to our mind a trivial consideration. That
the *aid Committeo instead of attempting to ex
plain and to reconcile tho inconsistencies which
our duty compelled us to expose, should have
flown into a passion with us uml used hard
words simply because wo supposed that 44 a fact
fixed" by his Honor and themselves could grow to
be a year old,beforo its nose should be disjointed
by atiQlber "fixed fact" seem* to us to look but
budly—very badly indeed ! Aud tho reason will
bo obvious to ail intelligent citizens at a glance I
If a solemn fact, so solemnly fixed, and exerting
and intended to exert so important an influence
upon public opinion as tho financial summary
mode by tho Mayor in 1847 ha* reraainod to
fired for only a yoar and no more, how long
will ’* the fact, the' fixftl foot, tho fact ports" or the
Republican cling io it* moorings-and not float
off to make roonfbr another ' fixed fact."
If tho Republican wishes to know why wo first
directed our attention to tills manor wo will in
form it The Mayor's Report* for the last two
yearn have contained reflections, wanton and
unnecessary, upon the Board of 1845 which pre
ceded hia administration. It was with a view of
degrading this Board IVotn hie,invidious imputa
tions that *wo first instituted tho comparison be
tween iu management of city affair* aud tho
mnuageraeiit of the present Board. We must
confess that w*' did not anticipate, in the com
mencement of our invustigatiuus, the astouud*
ing resulu to which thoy would bring us; yet
having attained theta results we have considered
it our duty to disclose them to tho public. And
are thoy of no importance whatovor to tho com
munity 1 Do they deserve uo more serious con
sideration than what Uto Republican is pleased
to award them T Wo doubt wliothor there is a
city in tho Union whero taxation is bo high as in
tho city of Savannah. It is a subject of const mt
remark among our citizens, and while thoy are
disposed to sustain the character of davauuah and
to meet her obligations promptly and to the lost
cent.it is a hope which has long been cherished
in their bosoms, it is a prospect which has lung
been held forth to them in the future, that the
time would soon be at baud when our debt would
bo discharged aud taxation reduced! They have
beeu accustomed, for year* past, to look forward
to the dividend* upon their stock in tho Central
Rail.Road as a means for the rapid reduction of
their debt. Tho timo has arrived when these
dividends have been received aud when tho city
has been relieved from compound interest upon n
considerable portion of its original debt—and
tho question, 44 How stuud matters now J” ha*
become one of momentous und deeply absorb
ing importance. Last year, as with the note of
a clarion, the Mayor proclaimed that a reduction
had been made iu tho years 1810 aud 1847 ofn*
bout §55,000 of the public debt. It was true that
tho reduction during tho years 1844 and 1845
had been §40.031 25, and that during the year
1847 §10,000 had beeu received from the Cen
tral Rail Road. Still the showing wns made
with a flourish o'* triumph; tho Mayor "fixed his
fact" ; the Treasurer offered hi* Report; the Fi
nance Committee attested it; and the public were
content. Had we ventured, even in n piping
voico, to question "the fixed fact" of 1847, in all
huinnn probability the Finance Committee would
have pounced down upon us theu as now with
a charge of misrepresentation.
Timo has rolled on since then ; time that has
changed youth into manhood, manhood into age,
life into death; time that has razed cities to the
dust and revelled iu the destruction of princi
palities and powers; time thut has uprooted old
systems of religion and unhinged the faith of
mankind in old principles of philosophy; time,
the changer, the destroyer, has rolled on. to do
in 1848, iu the City of Savannah, wiiut he had
never done before in the whole of bis infinite

say, §82,500, should have been paid in three
years. But during tho year 1818 it was known
that §10,500 more wa* received from tho
Central Railroad than iu 1840 and 1847, conse
quently the nmoiint should have been increased
to $8*2,500^/us §10,500, which is equal to §93,000.
But there wns an amount ofiuterest saved during
1848 previously paid,thntisto say, interest on §55,-
000 of debt! Consequently the aggregate should
have risen to §03,000, plus $3,850, that is to
say, to §95,850. When his Honor’s trumpet
was elevated, therefore, our community had a
right to expect a full round blast to the tune of
§9(5,850,nnd wheu it was blown an octave lower,
nnd came out only §66,803 65, wo should sup
pose that it furnished ample material for serious
consideration, if not for ptofitable controversy.
We theu felt it incumbent upon us. likewise,
to fix cerlaiti/uef* in onr humble way. Wc have
fixed them, and hero they are.
1. With ntt increased revenue of §40,816,86,
the Whig Board of’46, ’47, nnd ’48, have paid
but §3 201,86 more of the public debt than the
Board* of’43, *44, and ’45.
2. Assuming the Mayor’s statement to be cor
rect, the present Board with $27,204,43 more
money hai paid §7,305,60 less of the public debt
than the Board of ’45; making a difference
OF $34,510,03 IN FAVOR OF THE LATTER.
3. Assuming the statement of tho Finance
Committee roundly contradicting the Mayor’s re
port, and indirectly charging him with “grave
errors o//iict” and "misrepresentation" to he cor
rect, the present Board with $27,204,43 more
revenue, has only paid $14,805,75 more of the
public debt than the Board of ’45, making a
DIFFERENCE OF $12,393,63 IN FAVOR OF THE LAT
TER.
These are facts, fixed facts, fact* per sc; wc
leave the public to determine whether they are
not re narkuble fact*, startling fuels, facts that
cull for a new order of things. Should the
Wiiig ticket lutely nominated bo elected, we
shall have the same Board (to all intents and pur
poses) the same Finance Committee, tho same
Mayor : and, it maybe, the same unprecedented
"fixation" which will claim to have paid in 1849
the same money which has been paid in 1848,
unfixing fixed facts, and playing havoc with the
people’s hopes.

From tho Pennsylvanian. Nov, 23.
The excitement growing out of tho difficulty
between Messrs. Forrest and Macrcndy, even
npnrl from the merit* of the question itself, is
perhaps a natural consequence of the insuffer
able arrogance with which, in too many instances,
American citizens urc troated in England. We
may offend the fiishionab 0 taste in certain cir
cles here, probably, by alluding to this feeling ut
present; hut even at tho hazard of doing so, wo
cannot forbear giving un instance of British libe
rality, which is almost without a parallel. In
February, of1845, when Mr. Forrest visited Eng
land, lin was desirous of producing Bulwer*
great play of “ Richelieu, nnd tho 44 Lady of
Lyons.” Ho accordingly addressed to that gen
man the following letter»
276 Regent St., London.
Sir;—Being desirous of producing nt tho
Princess’s theatre, the play of “ Richelieu,” and
the 44 Lady of Lyons,” I take the liberty of ad
dressing you, to know if you have any objection
to their being represented there, aud what would
be the author’s nightly fee I have thu honor to
besoms with the highest respect.
EDWIN FORREST.
To Sir E. L. Bui.wkk, Bart.
After wniting nearly ten day*—an unaccount
able and unexpected delay—Mr.Bulwer returned
the following answer. It i* always customary
to pay the author of a gent pluy iu Great Britain
a certain sum for each night of its performance,
and this is justice. But Mr. Bulwer. l*y whom
infiuenc 7 t will not even suspect,accompanies
the statement of his extraordinary prices for the
right asked for by Mr. Forrest, by such tyrannical
conditions, ns to render it impossible for tbe latter
to net iu the plays alluded to. Read this super
cilious unswer:—
Sir:—I regret that,having invariably declined
to allow the representation of my play* nightly
at any metropolitan theatre, I cannot comply
with your request. I could not allow 44 Riche
lieu” nnd tho “ Lady of Lyons” to be performed
for a less period than ten nights cacti, upon a
payment beforehand of fifty guineas for the two—
und supposing that tho twenty performance*
were included within five weeks—at which timo
the right of performance (supposing that accident
prevented the completing, tbe twenty represen
tations) would cense, and return entirely to my
disposal. I am, sir, your obedient servant, *
E. B. LYTTON.
E. Forrest. Esqr. March 4. 1845.
We give this case os but one of many, nnd
leave the reader to decide for himself. ' Mr. Bul
wer exhibit* in bis note the true British character,
and wc do not wonder that Mr. Forrest cherishes
a bitter remembrance of such treatment.

This medicine bus already proved itself to lie
all that it has been recommended, by those who
have given it a fair test in this country, and the
demand for it increases daily. Wo have just
heard of an important cure of Asthma, which has
been effected by the use of it hi a -neighboring
town—tiie case wus that of a female, who had for
a long timo been under the care of a physician,
but had received 110 relief, and her cose was con
sidered hopnle8*. Asa last resort she purchased
a bottle ol Dr. Jnyno’s Expectorant, which caus
ed her to expectorate freely, gradually eased hoi
cough, and rapidly restored Tier to health. We
have no hesitation in saying, that this preparation
of Dr. Javne, for the euro of Coughs, Colds, In
fluenza. Asthma, Consumption, &c., is the most
valuable medicine ever offered to the American
public. There is no quackory about it—Dr.
Jayne is one of tho most skilful practising phy*i
clans in Pennsylvania, and wherever hi* variou*
preparations have been thoroughly texted, lie i*
looked upon ns a great public benefactor.—Som

Of all tho cores that has ever been recorded,

living proof of the curability of CONSUMP

DR. SWAYNE’8 COMPOUND SYRUP OF
WJ1LD CHERRY is oil it professes to be, the
greatest medicine in the known world.
THE TRUE R1CHK8 OF LIFE IS HEALTH.
Dr. Swayue-^-Dcf* Sir,—For the good of tho
public I feel myself iu duty bound to testify to
tho great cure which your Compound Syrup of
Wild Cherry performed on me. For my purt, l
feel as if every body ought to know it. I wus af
flicted with u violent Cough, Spitting of Blood,
Night' Sweats, Hoarseness, and sounds of the
voico indicating an alarming state of disease; my
appetite was gone, nnd my strength had so fur
failed me thut my friends nnd physiciun were
persuaded that I could not survivo many days.
My sister, who wus my anxious care-taker, made
inquiry where she would he likely to procure the
most certain relief, She wus told that if Dr.
Swuyne’s Compound Syrup of Wild Cherry
failed in tho cure, my life wns then hopeless.
Your medicine was immediately procured, and
the first bottle gave relief, nnd by tho time
I had commenced the sixth bottle, my cough
had left me and my strength wns much improved.
In short it has mude a perfect cure of mo, and I
am at thi* present time as hearty a mnn a* 1
wish, and have good reason to believe that tho
two of your medicine hns saved mo from a pre
mature grave. 1 shall be pleased to give any
information respecting my case. Yours, with
respect, J. M. Reeves.
