Allot the above “ assets” may be considered good, and almost at par in United States curren cy, except the bank stock. But as no returns have been made to this office by tbe banks for the year 1866, there is no data upon which 1 can make a correct estimate of its value. Consider ing the large amount of State bouds held by the banks, which were repudiated by the Convention, together with losses in Con>ederate securities and bonds, the estimate of assets in bank stock must be at a low valuation. Tbe report ot D. MacDonald, the able and efficient Treasurer of the Atlantic & Gulf Railroad, shows, that the people of Georgia, by whom most of the stock of tiiis road is owned, have not lost faith in its ulti mate success. The losses of the road during the last two or three years have been very heavy, hut by the good management and energy of its of ficers, most of its tormer lines of communication have been opened, and the road put in good run ning order. Also, an important branch of thirty miles has been built. < pening communications with the richest portion of Florida, and with a liue of Gulf steamers from New Orleans, thereby connecting the East and the South-west. This road has already added much to the real wealth of the southern portion of Georgia, and doubt less will be a great thoroughfare of travel between New York and New Orleans. The further exten sion of the road will be continued, and its early completion to Alabama is now anticipated. A sufficiency of the stock having been taken, as re quired by law, the State has been called upon and has paid her thirteenth installment, amounting to $134,5110 U0; and we have every reason to hope that the road will soon become a source of reve nue to the State. Owing to the very heavy loss es sustained by the Western & Atlantic Railroad, from tliu destruction of its track, rolling stock bridges, depots, etc . by the Confederate and United States armies, no revenue has been derived from this source for tho fiscal 3 ear 1866. the road having paid into the Treasury only $75,000 0", and drawn therefrom $383,724 40. for completion of repairs; showing a balance against the road of $308,724 00. While the luture prosperity of this road cannot be doubted, it seems to me that there are no substantial grounos to justify the estimate that the same amount of revenue can be anticipated from this source as accrued to the State prior to the late war. for at least one or two years There is no doubt, however, that with propitious seasons and a few abundant harvests, the business ot the road, in the course of time, will be increased, and as large, or larger monthly net earnings declared than at any time heretofore Other lines of railroads, which are destined to be feeders of the Western & Atlantic Railroad, will, it is confidently believed, be completed at an early day, and add a new species of business, by opening a ready market to the inexhaustible slate quarries of the western portion of the State. We have but to wait patiently the developments of a few years to see our fondest hopes lully realized, when this road will again become the chief ele ment of tbe financial operations of the State. Public Debt. The following statement of the public debt of the State, in bonds, has been kindly furnished by Col. John Jones, 8tate Treasurer. unimpaired, and her new brads, wbicb only a few months since were selling at ninety cents, are now bringing ninety-seven and » balf. and will doubtless be at par in a short time. Even with oar heavy losses of property, with a moder ate tax, if favored with a few propitious seasons and good crops, by cartailing our expenditures and adopting a sinking fond sufficient to pay t^ie interest, and a small part of the principal annual ly, we can pay tbe State debt without feeling the least pressure. Tbe financial affairs of Georgia have been, and may still be so managed, as to enable oar people to say “ that they pay a lighter tax than those of any other State in the Union ” Receipts and Disbursements at the Treasury.

Every effort was made to en sure full and correct returns ; bnt, owing to the want of mail facilities, and the inexperience of Tax Re ceiver?,! feel that I have only been partially success ful. A* required by law, every “Tax Digest” has been carefully examined, and a number of errors cor rected, most of which being of minor importance, the actual returns have been affected but little. From some cause, which I am unable to discover, the “Tax Digests” of the counties of McIntosh, Rabun, and Ware, have not been received. Though several let- te. 8 of inquiry to the Receivers repiesenting the three nforesa d counties have been written, no replies rela tive to the matter have been received. Therefi of my estimates, have been made indepeude these counties, the returns of which would no aficcted the general result but to a small as they would not have exceeded one million of dol lars, in my opinion. Should our people he left undis turbed. nu increase in the returns of the ensuing year over those of this may be be confidently expected throughout the whole State.

It would he well to note that iu 1872, $721,5 0 00 of these bonds fall due, and unless some arrangement is previ ously made to meet this heavy demand, there will be some trouble ; this being disposed of, our State debt can be easily managed. Since, to meet this debt, and to pay interest on the same, the State has assets which may be safely estimated at $1,- 000,000 00. also the Western and Atlantic Rail road, which for several years paid an interest of over 6 per cent, into the Treasury on $7,000,- 000 00, and was valued by a committee appoint ed by the Legislature in 1862 at $7,849,224 68, with tbe assets of the State and a taxable property of over $200 000,000 00, exclusive of Railroad, Banking, Express Companies aud Foreign Insu rance Agencies, onr debt can be easily paid. It ia a cheering fact te know, that in tbe face of re pudiation by the Convention of a large part of tbe State's indebtedness, that bur credit is almost $879,705 06 Showing & surplus of only $2,546 99 It wiQ thus be seen that only a small margin is left for extra appropriations after the ordinary expendi tures ot 1867 have been paid, and new sources of rev enue should be opened before any such should be made. Sound pohev dictates that the receipts and disbursements .hould be so arranged as to enable the Siate, instead of increasing, to reduce her indebtedness annually. To do this, either strict economy will be $828,802 00 1 necessary, or higher rates of taxation than heretofore . mnnnt-! adopted, which, if possible, should be avoided until the financial condition of tbe country becomes less em barrassed than ot present, which will require at least one or more good crops.

Jones, 12 3t Treasurer. Riddle’s Photographic Gallery, MACON, GEORGIA. The citizens of this place and surrounding country will please accept my profound thanks for their kind patronage bestowed on me daring the last year. I have now fitted np one of the most extensive and complete establishments of the kind South of New York, and have secured the services of the best artist I could get at the same city to assist me—so that I am thoroughly prepared to fill every order in the Photographic Art tlmt may be brought to the Gallery. One of the greatest advantages of Photography is the process of copying old Daguerreotypes, &c , into photographs, large or small—tor this purpose I have had new instruments made expressly, which will enable me to give the most satisfactory re sults m every particular. AH persons visiting tbe city of Macon are invi ted to visit my Gallery as they will find it a pleas ant place to while away their leisure moments. Respectfully. A. J. BIDDLE.
