COMPTROLLER GENERAL’S OFFICE, Milledgeville, Oct. 2<>th, 1858. To His F.tceLcncy JOSEPH E. BROWS, Gov'r. Sir :—In compliance with the provisions of an Act of the 28th December, 1643,1 have the hon or to lay before your Excellency a statement of the receipts aud disbursements at the Treasury during the fiscal year 1858, showing a balance in the Treasury at the end of the year, of $455,924 29. Of this balance $455,424 29, now in the Treasury there is, however, unavailable, the sum of $325,- 564, consisting of the following items, viz: Bank stock, (Education Fund,) $290,900 00 Stock iu Milledgeville and G. Rail road, - 20,000 00 Darien Bank bills, - - 2,237 25 Western &. Atlantic Railroad Script, 4,784 75 Uncurrent funds, ... 7.642 HO $325,564 00 Total, Leaving an available baiauee in the Treasury of $130,360 65 to meet the balance unpaid on on the appropriations for 1858, amounting to the sum of $110,360 65. There, was an available balance in the Treasury on the 20th October, 1857, of $112,262 16. to meet appropriations unpaid amounting to $84,111 36: leaving the sum of $28,151 80, as a balance in the Treasury after paying all the appropriations for 1857. An abstract from the books of this office, accom panies this report as required by an act of the 23d of December, 1839, setting forth the amounts of the general appropriations, both common and special, under their respective heads: The dates and amounts of warrants approved: In whose favor drawn ; and, The balance undrawn of each appropriation. And as required by act of the 26th December, 1821, an exhibit is herewith submitted, showing the amount of taxes with which the inhabitants of each county in the State stands charged in the digests returned to this office by the several Re ceivers of Tax Returns, for the year 1858, from which it appears that the tax assessed amounts, in the aggregate, to the sum of $441,965 06. Receipts and Disbursements of the Treasury. Of the Receipts into the Treasury during the fiscal year, 1858, there was received: On account of the General Tax, 1857, $390,*97 20 Net earnings, Western & A.

Tbo reason for this is: 1st. most of the old tax claims that were worth any thing, were collected last year; and 2dly, there was received in 1858, $11,332 68, less from the general tax of 1857, than was received in 1857 from the general tax of 1856. The increa cd re ceipts from the Western and Atlantic Railroad be ing this year $91,500 more than that of last year. The payment into the Treasury in 1357. from the road being $108,500. So much for the past. As regards the future, the Comptroller thinks we shall raise for the en suing fiscal year, at least, $375,000. From the State Road $300,000 annually—Bank tax $31,- 120 11 ; dividend from hank stock $29,575 00; tax on Rail Roads, $6,204 94; miscellaneous items $5,775 88; making a total of $749,675 82. And the Comptroller thinks that the appropria tions for id59 will not be so large as the past year by $150,000. Assuming then that the receipts "into tkc Treas ury for the fiscal year 1859 will be, as above, and we will have a total of about $7GC,»21 04. The de mand upon the Treasury for the same year will approximate $548,575 00. After meeting the ordinary demands upon the Treasury and reducing the public debt $45,000 and allowing $50,000 for miscellaneous or extraordinary appropriations, there Wilt be a surplus of $221,356 04, to be ap plied as the Legislature may see proper to direct. The Public Debt. So far as I can discover from tho Treasurer’s Report and the various Acts of the Legislature, the public debt in bonds, now amouuts to $2,631.- 000, which will be increased to $3,531,000, (un less before reduced,) when the remaining ($900,- 000) of ths bonds for the subscription to the At- lantic and Gulf Railroad are issued.

As the subject of Education—embracing Com mon Schools. Free, Ac. &c.—always engrosses the attention of the Representatives of the people, and, since being in office, having been frequently called upon personally by members of the Legisla ture for information—although not one of my offi cial duties—I have prepared, and present with this report, a table marked “E,” containing iu a small space much useful information connected with this and other subjects of legislation. The table contains the number of polls returned in each county in 1857; the voters in each county iu 1857; the number of poor children returned to the Treasurer for a participation in the Poor School Fund in each county in 1357; the amount drawn by each county, for the Poor School Fund; tiie amount paid to the members of the Legislature of each county; the total amount drawn from the Treas ury by each county iu i*57 ; and the net amount, (cents not counted") of tax paid into the Treasury by each county, in 1*57. The number of polls in 1857, were - 97,149 The number of voters in 1857, - 104,394 The number of Poor children returned in 1857. 48,679 Amount Poor School Fund distributed in 1857, $30,604 Amount paid to members of the Legisla ture iu 1857, .... $95,760 Total amount paid to counties in 1857, $126,864 Net tax from all counties in 1857. - $393,713 There were also returned in one hundred and five counties in 1857, 83,551 children between the ages of 8 and 16 years, and in the same 105 coun ties the number of polls returned were 87,065.— But as these returns were not full, they have not been placed in table “E.” These data were obtained from the Treasury and Comptroller General’s office—except as to the vo ters, which is “official.” It will be seen that several counties failed to re turn any Poor Children iu 1857. To remedy this omission as far as possible, the Treasurer deducted 20 per cent, upon the former return, and proceeded to the distribution accordingly. Table -*E” also contains the amount of tax in dollars (cents not included,) raised by taction in each county for Educational or Poor School purposes 1857. This information lias been obtained through correspondence with the Ordinaries ot the. several counties, and where the Ordinaries have failed to respond to my call, through Clerks of the Superior and Inferior Courts, and others, vho have sought and obtained the information from the proper source. It will be seen that a few counties have not been beard from—although as many as three letters to different persons were sent to each of these counties. For all purposes, however, the information obtained will answer.— It will be perceived, therefore, that the amount raised iu the 112 counties heard from by taxation for Poor School purposes in 1357, was 65,172. The amount paid to these same 112 counties from the State Treasury for the same purpose, was $29,354—making the total Poor School Fund ot these counties in 18.37, only $94,586. All of which is respectfully submitted. PETERSON 111\VEATI’, Comptroller General. From the St. Louis Republican, Oct- 10. HAIL FROM CALIFOKA.il BY THE OVERLAY!) HAIL. ITS RECEPTION AT ST. LOUIS—OVATION TO MR. BUTTERFIELD. A great feat is accomplished. What lias hither to been regarded as a visionary and speculative enterprise has been established beyond all doubt, and St. Louis and San Francisco have been brought within twenty-four days travel of each other on a stage line, and a route which will ad mit of easier and safer travel than did the trip from St. Louis to Philadelphia thirty years ago.

Mr. Baily being called out hy gentlemen who liad assembled at the Planters’ House, on the occasion, gave a brief but interesting history of his trip. The great difficulty in the way was the want of water in some of the deserts, but this was remedied to a very considerable extent by the foresight of t lie company in sending water forward for the use of the animals.

It was at once determined that a fitting recep tion should be given to Mr. Butterfield, and be fore 8 o'clock a large number of onr most respectable citizens had assembled for that pur pose. The procession was was -formed in front of the Planters house last evening at 8 o’clock, headed by the St Louis Silver baud iu Arnots band wagon drawn by six horses and proceeded to the depot of the Pacific railroad. On the arrival of the train at a little before nine o’clock Mr. Butterfield was received, on behalf of the reception committee and | |” “£ ,. vell j n<r k - ( . ars wer ,, a large concourse of citizens present, by John i’-j r ounds would prove fatal. Darby esq , who said: Sir: On behalf of the committee and the citizens of St. Louis, I extend to you a hearty congratula tion on the achievement of an undertaking worthy the genius and perseverance of an American. [Ap plause] You nave demonstrated to tho nation the prac ticability of bringing communication from San Francisco to tbe centre of the valley of the Mis sissippi in the wonderfully short space of twenty four days, and for the accomplishment of which you deserve the thanks and gratitude of the whole American people. We have experienced for years the difficulty of communicating with our breth ren on the shores of the Pacific, and for ten years have been striving for means which would obviate those difficulties and bring us in close contact.— You sir, have accomplished that object by your indefatigable exertions, 'and secured a resuit so desirable, and fraught with so many blessings, that you are entitled to the warmest gratitude of the American people. You sir, have inaugurated a system winch though yet in incipient stages of its operation, is of paramount importance iu tlie re sults which it will secure in social, political, and mercantile points of view, at the same time il lustrative of the transcendence of American skill, enterprise and untiring perseverance. In conclu sion, let me again return to yon ojr most hearty thanks and congratulations on your noble achieve ment. Iu reply, Mr. Butterfield expressed the emo tions which filled his heart at this demonstration of the good-will and approbation of his fellow cit izens. and said they were not the less pleasurable by being unexpected. He regarded it as the hap piest moment of liis life, in view of the fact rhathehad accomplished an object which had so long been desired by the citizens of St. Lotus and had received their hearty approval for his labor. Great difficulties had lain in the way, but what obstacles he continued cannot be surmounted by American enterprise? [applause j lie had en tered upon the work with a determination to suc ceed, and hy the help of his assistants (whom lie complimented very highly) had succeeded. But the operations were as yet imperfect, this being the first trial. For the next six years thirty thou sand miles of the mail travelling will be accom plished every day. Nations had taken hold of great works but had not reported. An Atlantic telegraph had been laid, it was true, but the over land mail was ahead of the submarine lightning at last, and had renorted. [Applause] He thanked the people and the committee for their cordial welcome, and concluded amid continued applause. * Upon leaving the depot, the carriages proceeded to the starting point, on Fourth street preceded by the band chariot, and passing around Fine did not draw up until they reached the post office, when the mail was turned over to tho proper officials.— Some extra bags containing the San Francisco Evening Bulletin, the special edition of the Alta California, and other papers, were retained and put out at the hotel. Here they were opened and the papers handed round to the assembled specta tors,who read them with apparent great interest.— The Alta California was most in demand, as it sported a fine speeial head of “by the Overland Mail,’’and an imposing picture of a mail coach with four horses in full gallop. It was a weekly edition, aud bore evidence of the most commend able enterprise on the part of iu publishers. During the melee that ensued, four or five, or perhaps six, additional shots were fired. When the combatants were separated, it was ascertain ed that Jas. Owen was shot in the hand, through the thigh, and in tire back above the hips, rang ing into the lungs. It was thought his wounds were mortal, and that he could not survive until this morning. Upon bringing Sam. Cowan to the city, it was ascertained that he was mortally wounded by a pistol shot, the ball having entered the upper part of the forehead and ranged back ward. where it lodged. Gen. Joel A. Battle was horribly mangled about the head from blows inflicted with a heavy stick, and it is reported that his skull is fractured, from hich he was suffering the most excruciating pain entertained that his Mr. Thomas Battle. who was standing near wh< n the affray com menced. received a slight though painful flesh wound in the w rist from a pistol shot. A pistol hall passed through the coat of the gate keeper at the ring near where the tight occurred. We heard of several others who were slightly injuied from blows inflicted by sticks, among others Mr. W. A. Davis. It is a miracle that several others were not killed or wounded, where so many were in the vicinity. Tho fight occurred on the opposite side of the amphitheatre from where the ladies were seated, though a few were in the immediate vicinity, who were greatly alarmed. If the officers of the fair had hei-ii advised that a fight was contemplated or expected, they would have taken prompt steps to have suppressed it by having the parties arrested. A gentleman who heard that a collision was ap prehended went to the parties and made them promise that nothing of the kind should occur, otherwise lie would have them arrested. But they disregarded their promise, and the consequences have been truly awful. [From the London News Sept 30.] The American Chess-Player. MR. BAILEY”SJOURNAL. [From the St. Louis Republican, Oct. 11] We publish below Mr. Bailey's journal of the route taken by' tbe overland mail on its first trip from San Francisco to St. Louis, and also the distances between the different joints, and the time required for the performance of the trip.— Mr. Bailey says that at least four days’ time were lost on this trip from causes which are not likely to occur hereafter. The necessity lor his imme- mediate return to Washington city prevented his furnishing a more detailed account of his trip for the press. DISTANCE FROM SAN FRANCISCO TO ST. LOUIS. MORPHY IN PARIS. The extraordinary fact of playing eight games at the same time without seeing the board was performed on Monday at Cafe de la Regence. by Mr. Morphy the young American player. The portion of the Cafe de la Regence more particular ly appropriated to the use of chess amateurs was open as usual to the public, and in it sat the eight gentlemen who consented to be Mr. Morphy’s an tagonists. The other jiart of the Cafe, further on and in which two billiard tables are placi d, was appointed to the use of the blindlold player, w ho sat at the end with his back to the public. A cer tain line was marked out, beyond which only two gentlemen could pass, M. Journoud and M Ar- nous de Riviere, who had undertaken to annoutfee tiie moves on both sides. The latter gentleman officiated foi the four first players, MM. Bauclier Bierwith, Bornemann, and Guibert, and tho former for the last four, MM. Lcqucsne, Potier, Prcti and Seguin. At half past 12, the e.ombat- lants having taken their places in the presence of about 250 lovers of the noble game, the play com menced hy Mr. Morphy taking the move, and signifying that in every one ot thegeight eases he played KP2 Some of his opponents replied by the similar move whilst others played differently so as to lead to what is called irregular openings. The play then went on without interruption for net less than ten hours during which time Mr. Morphy never took tlie slightest refreshment.— The definite result was that the blindfold player won six of the games and drew two, his oppo nents being vanquished in the following order: ML.Preti (afterseven hours and a half) Potier, Baucher, Bornemann, Bierwith, and Segitin, (at half-past 10.) The two players who succeeded in drawing their games were MM. I.uquesne and Guibert. At the end of this wonderful exhibition Mr. Morphy iMd not appear much fatigued. Grand 1-odge of Georgia.—“We learn from an advertisement iu the Augusta Chronicle Jfc Sentinel Savannah Republican and Atlanta Amer ican, that this body will convene in Macon on Tuesday the 26th October. This is the first intimation we have had that*Ma sons in Georgia are biased hy party feeling. Why should American or Whig Journals be picked out to advertise in?” Tito foregoing from the Marietta Patriot of the 14th, is altogether unjust to the worthy Grand Secretary, S. Rose, Esq., who caused the first no tice to be published in the Georgia Telegraph, and procuring its publication directly thereafter in two papers of differing politics in Augusta, Culumbus, Milledgeville and Atlanta and one in the city of Savannah—a course certainly as dif ferent from the one imputed by* the Patriot, as could possibly he conceived.— 'telegraph.

The Murderous Affray at the Yashiille fair Grounds. The fair ground was yesterday, about 12 o-clock, the scene of a terrible affray, which resulted in the death of one man and the mortal wounding of two or three others. It occurred on the prom enade back of the upper tier of seats, and cre ated the greatest excitement imaginable. So un expected was it to those iu attendance upon the fair that it was impossible to ascertain tiie facts attending the sanguinary affair, and we can only give the most intelligible narrative we could de duce from the mass of contradictory reports which were Hying with almost lightning rapidity over the grounds. It appears that a feud of a very bitter nature has for some time existed between John, James, and Sandy Owen, sons of Everett Ow en, of Wil liamson county, and Sam. and Geo. W. Cowen. son’s of Mr. Owen's wife hy a former husband. Sam. Cowan met Jas. Owen, who had his wife leaning upon his arm, at the fair yesterday morn ing, aud spat in his face. Shortly afterwards !

Rubottom is justified by the people and by the oflfeers of the laiv.

Of these forty-six were excused from serving because of s)mpathy with the committee, three from prejudice against that o. ganizatiou, and one found incompetent, having recently arrived in tiie country, and entertaining no decided opinion on the subject ut vigtlancism.

I have used it in my family for years, in every in stance, it has proved a sovereign remedy. I tested its qualities to-day, on a severe burn, and found it all that could he desired. A. D. MILNE.

Messrs : P Davis & Son—Gents—Before I left Mer gui, both Karens ami But mans had found out the value of your Pain Killer, nml I could readily have disposed of a large quantity of it among them. It seams par ticularly efficacious in cholera morbus, bowei complaints and other diseaseas, to which the natives of Bunnah from their udWholcsome style of living, are peculiarly exposed. It is a valuable antidote to the poison of Centipedes, Scorpions, Hornets, and the like, I have been twice stung by Scorpions, and in both cases eased the most excruciating pain, and entirely prevented the swelling by applying the Pain Killer. On our voyage homeward from India, the Captain of the ship was taken with vomiting and purging, and other symptoms of cholera, I gave him a good dose of Pain Killer with the most immediate and happy results So entire was the relief that he assured me he would never again go a voyage without your excellent medicine; if he could possibly procure it. Respectfully yours, REV. J. BENJAMIN, Late M issionary to Burundi.

The Postmaster at Chattanooga advises him that the packages of letter from Savannah to Nashville and Chattanooga, of the Istli of August last, were stolen from the cars on the State Road and found in the Tennessee river on the 12th Oc tober There was a number of important letters; one of which contained a check on the Central Railroad Bank for $27 or $29 (too much defaced to tell exactly) in favor of Stricken, Ellis and Co. This is an important discovery to our merchants, as it may explain the cause of unanswered letters and unacknowledged remittances. Sacannah RrpuHieau. The President a! church.—A clerical correspond ent of the New Y'ork Observer, writing from Lancaster, I’a., about the President’s late visit there tells the following. A pleasant instance of his freedom from osten tation and pride was bis manner at church on the preceding Sabbath. He walked tiom his resi dence which must be two miles, as the church is in the opposite suburb of Lancaster, and came a lit tle after the service began. His feet was covered with dust, and tiie prespiration was standing on his forehead. No stir was made in the congrega tion: he quietly entered his own pew, and engaged in silent devotion. A psalmbook was handed to him, and he at once participated in the song of praise. He seemed greatly interested in the ser mon, which was indeed worthy the attention of kings and all others in authority, as well ns of all under authority. It was based on the passage, “Almost thou persnadest me to be a Christian,” and besides possessing extraordinary merit as a piece of composition was delivered with eloquence and power. After church the President walked devontedly, and entirely unattended through the streets of Lancaster. YVliat Stranger looking upon this sol itary pedestrian, apparently oblivious of self, and not expecting admiration could have imagined that he was the Chief Magistrate of this mighty nation. Spurgeon sometimes comes out with a good thing. “Brethren,” said he, “if God had referred ... | the Ark to a committee on naval affairs, it's my Memorandum of distances between the stations j opinion it would not have been built yet Holloway's Ointment and Pills.—Provided with these neineiiies, a person of the most delicate phvsiqnc may brave any climate. They comprehend within the circle of their curative influence all internal diseases nutorganie, and ull the varieties of outward inflamma tion. Be careful not to be imposed upon by a spurious article palmed upoh you for genuine. The latter are known by a Water-mark in every leaf of the book of directions accompanying each pot nml box. This Water-mark consists of the words, “Holloway, New York and London,” which ought to be in semi-transpa rent lettei s in the paper. Hold it up to the light. The Foot of Anuk.—We have liis foot in our office for exhibition. It is in a petrified state, and wis found near this place. It is about fourteen inches long and resembles a last more than a human foot The joints over the instep aud around where tiie ankle may have been are somewhat striking The hot ton is as smooth as many feet would he in Auak’s age. and indeed does resemble the bottom ct a hitman foot that trod the earth about 511,000 years ago. It clearly shows the pro gression of man that liis foot was once as rough aud as huge as tliis. But this does not show any marks of the toes: or rather shows that in petrefac- tion they all grew together. Perhaps iu calling it the foot of Anak we may have no authority, nor do we claim that we have, hut then if it is not Auak’s foot whose is itf We should like to know the age of this “foot,” It must have trode the earth many thousands of years ago, long, long before the human feet reached the perfection they have now. lYulhulla Banner.
