County Treasurer—The books of the County Treasurer are correctly kept, and tlio disbursements and receipts correspond to the vouchers he has submitted for ex amination. Wo find in the treasury a not balance of $1,500 and no liabilities. We recommend that a tax of fire-tonths of one per cent, be levied for county pur pose, for the present year. Clerk of the Commissioners—The books of the Clerk of the Board of County Com missiones has been found in order and correctly kept. The samo as to the books of tho Ordinary and Clerk of the Superior Court. Messrs. J. A. Atwood, G. W. Long and I. M. Aiken are appointed a committee to examine the books and records in the clerk's office and report to the next grand jury, and receive as compensation for their services $5. each. His records are found correct. Public Buildings—Are all in good order and neatly kept. We would recommend that the proper authorities have the out building and fencing around th3 Acad emy on tho Ridge white-washed. We recommend that the Board of Coun ty Commissioners enter suit of ejectmoat, against J. E. and M. J. Bennett for tho re covery of the County’s property they now occupy, and that the suit be brought in tho name and behalf of Mclntosh county. Jurors, Clerk, Sheriff &o.—We recom mend that tho pay of the jurors be $1 50 per day and that the Clerk and Sboriff re ceive $5 per day during the term of court as extra compensation. The bailiff’s and grand jury bailiff be paid $2 per day dur ing the term of court, j Notaries Public and Ex-Officio Justice Peace. Wo recommend tho appointment of D. It.

C. Wylly and G. W. Long. We recommend I)r. R. B. Harris for tho appointment of member of the Board of Education,vice H. A. Dunwody, resigned. Justices Books —We find the dockets of D. R. Mclntosh and W. T. Thorpo of the 22nd district properly kopt. Justice Bourke Spalding, of the 1312th district, shows no cases as having been tried in his court. We find that 1 civil case on Justice Walker’s docket tried, whore tho cost is not carried out although not collected. The same as to Justice L. Crawford of the 271st district. Justice I. M. Aiken's books •we find are improperly kopt, in this, that in a number of cases he has omitted to place tho cost upon his docket, and that in a number of criminal cases ho has fail ed to make entry upon his docket, and that he has beon in the habit of charging three dollars cr more for drawing up war rants which we do not think is right. Education—We find that the grand jury at the fall term 1879, appointed a commit tee consisting of Messrs. J. A. Atwood, G. W. Long and W. C. Clark, with instruc tions to examine into tho affairs of tho County Board of Education and Academy Commissioners. Their report we order to be published for information. We re commend that the term of free schools bo increased to 20 weeks per year; also re commend that persons holding leases from the Commissioners of Mclntosh coun ty Academy be required to place said lease on record "with tho Clerk of the Superior Court by the Ist of July 1880, also that tho amount now outstanding and duo from leases be at once collected and that the said committee receive as compensa tion $lO each, being in full for their ser vices to be paid out of tho funds now in tho treasury. County Roads—We find the roads gen erally in a good condition,except the stage and River roads. The causeways on the former, both at Sapelo and South IS ewport. The bridge over South Newport River is iu an almost impassable condition. There fore recommend the Commissioners havo these causeways put in thorough repair, and raised above high water mark. That the County Commissioners have the bridge over South Newport river, Mclntosh coun ty’s half, put in order immediately. On the River road tho causeways are in a bad condition. We would also recommend that the road hands be culled out at a dry season, it being difficult to work the road in wet weather, and that the bridge over McCullough’s creek be repaired and a railing be put on each side of it, also that some steps be taken toward obtaining a new flat over the lagoons at Barrington Ferry, as the ono now in uso ia old and unsafe; also recommend that Samuel R. J. Thorpe be appointed Commissioner in place of Simon Baker on the Harris Neck road, and that Edward Rdughan be ap pointed in place of Mathew Scott, on road No. 1. That F. C. Sandorford be appoint ed in plac9 of C. YV. Bronson, on tho •Jonesville road, and that V.. It. Popped be appointed in place of Samuel J. Mc- Donald, on the Briar Dam. In conclusion wo tender to His Honor, W. B. Fleming, Judge of this court, our thanks for the able and full charge deliv ered and tho kindness ho has extended to us during tho session of this court. Wo also tender our acknowledgement* to Maj. A. B. Smith, the able Solicitor General, for the courtesies and assistance tendered us in the discharge of our duties.

Patterson Darien, Georgia, May fitrth. 1880. { To the Gra'iul Jmy of jlelnlcsfi County— ; Gki.’Tlkmen:— I The committee appointed M | the fall term 1879, of Mclntosh county Su perior Court, to os aim no the hooka of the County Board of Education or County School Commissioner, and of Mclntosh County Academy, make the following re port: In regard to the County School Commis sioners books, wo hand you herewith condensed statement of tho amounts re ceived and amounts paid out; wo find the receipts for the past three years have beon over $1,200 per annum, and the amounts paid out much less, tiutil last year, when it was a littlo over, Tho balance last spring being $1,703 40; and at this time since SI,GIO 76. Just hero wo would call your attention to the fact that this balance re mains in the hands of tho school commis sioner from year to year, as the receipts for each year come in, early enough to meet tho payments or so very nearly so, that a very small balance will bo enough to cover all dues before it does come in. ■* By reference to the minute book of tho Board of County School Commissioners or County Board of Education, you will see that thoy givo more time to tho schools for this yoar; but oven that will leave a bal ance of $1,200 or over on band, that is, es timating that the receipts this year will be as much as it has been per year for the past t hree .years. It is for your honorable body to recommend how best it should be disposed of, whether in the school house or in the longer term of tho schools. Wo hand you with this a list of the schools for tho year 1879. We find from the books of tho Mclntosh Academy, that tho Academy owns 35 lots and 6 fractions of lots in tho city of Darien, and a lot and school house on.tho Bulge. Of the lot in Darien 21 and four fractions are Eased at a yearly rental of $371. They have now duo thorn $379 92 which the Secretary informs us that they are making strong efforts to col lect. They owe on account of school house on the Ridge and commission to Secretary and Treasurer $247 83. So you see if the amounts due them were all paid they would have all their liabilities paid add some $173 ou baud. The book dhows cash on hand s4l 44, which will reduce the $247 88 that much. We would here call your attention to the fact that there is no definite showing of when those lota were leased and for what length of time, and the present Secretary informs ns that he has no way of finding out as the leases are not on record, not all of them if any. That he has asked several of the lossoes to lot him seo their leases but they hayo not been shown to him. We would suggest the urgent necessity of your requiring all lessees to produce their leases. That the Seci etary may take a true and correct state ment of them, showing to whom leased and for what length of time, and that you require said statement recorded with the clerk of the Superior Court on the county records, and by the Clerk of the Board of County Commissioners on their books. Respectfully submitted, W. C. Clark, J. A. Arwoon, G. W. Long. Committee, Darien, Georgia, May 24th, 18S0. ISectlMj* of the Mclntosh Democracy. Daiiibn, Ga., June Ist, 1880.
