j respectfully request the Justices ofourlnferior Court,
to levy a tax of twenty-five percent fertile education

the suggestion ofliis honor, .lodgeStark, that there is
constantly an increase ol business left upon oor dock

We have examined the records ofthe Clerks ofthe

gratified at lindin; them kept in a neat and baseness
iike style and highly creditable to the officers. We
have examined the Tax Collector’s books, and find

Presentments of tltc Grand Jury,
HOUSTON SUPERIOR COURT,
Afril Term, 1851,
W E. the first Panel of Grand Juror*, chosen snd
sworn for the April Term of Houston Su
perior Court, do make the following as our general
Presentments:
In the first place, we have examined the Jail nnd
would recommend another shutter to be placed on the
inside of the upper door to fatten between the two
shutters with a strong latch or bolt. Welikewise re
commend soma repairs to the court huuse. such as
Glazing. 4c.
The public roads of our county, wp are sorry to say,
are not in a condition to give satisfaction to the rom*
mnnity. Wehearofannmberofecmplsints. There
i* likewise wanting a new bridge across Indian creek
on the road leading from Staley’s to Swift's Mill; end
some repairs to the bridges over the same atream
near this place end the ramp ground.
Bat is with feelings ofsome pride end satisfaction,
that we approach the subject of our county fond*,
upon an examination ofthe Books of our county offi
cers, wp find them reatly and correctly kept,and the
»umof82,477 95 cents in the Treasurer’* hands; and
elibouch the amount is large, yet when we take it
imoconsiderntion the heavy demands which yearly
come against ns. and the good policy ol always being
able to pay promptly, we are onwijline at this time
to make much reduction in taxes. We therefore re
commend to oar Inferior Caortto levy upon onrStste
tax. forcounty purposes the sumof 25 per cent, for
the poor school fund 15 percent, forthe jniy fund 15
per rent, and for the poor the sum of 25 per cent.
W e have taken into consideration that portion of
His Honor's charge, relative to the formation of new
Judicial Circuits, and respond hesrtily to it. viewing
■ delay of.justice as almost eqnsl to a denial. Wo
would recommend to onr next Legislature the addi
tion of such nnmberof new circuits as they in their
wisdom may think heat.
It is with most melancholy feelings, that wo allnde
to the death of the Hon. C. B Strong, a man who
served his country with courage in the field, nnd abil
ity upon the Bench, end whose death has produced a
void not only in yonr Bar. bnt intheSocietyand State
to which he belonged.that will not shortly be filled.
And lastly, in taking leave of Hia Honor nnd the
Solicitor General, we tender to them our thanks for
theirconrtesy nnd attention *0 this body dnring the
present termofservice. And wo request thttthese
oarpresentmenta be published in the Georgia Tele
graph and Journal 4 Messenger.

On motion ofthe Solicitor General. Ordered. That

A true extract from the minntes.
may 13 WM H. MILLER. Clerk.
Judge Strong aa bat been beforefilly remarked
was emphatically the “Nestor of the Georgia Bar.”
Although for nearly a half century, engaged
either at the Bar or upon the Bench iu the active
duties uf his profession, aud ufteu thrown in fierce
collision wilh members ot his brotherhood ; there
is 110 man liviugor dead who ever charged J udge
Strong iviih professional dishonor: though the
deceased had chosen the former as the theatre of
bis labors, he had a magnanimous patriotism that
would make nny sacrifice for tbe good of bis couu
try: when bis udopted Georgia that lie so much
loved, called upon her sons to protect her soul
from Ihe incursions uf a savage foe, Judge Strong
cast aside bislaw hook* and briefs aud exchanged
the endearments of friends and home fur the pri.
various and perils of tbe camp.
As long as the history ul'Ot-tis see and Cal le-bee
survives, the remeinbrauce ol Col. Strong's ser
vices upou bis country's battlefields will be per
petuated.
When quiteyonngjudge Strong married a beau
tiful and accomplished lady of Virginia, for whom
be entertained the most nrdeDt attachment: though
she has been dead many years, yet, true to the af
fection uf hi* early manhood ho never married
again, and to the lust day of his life fondly cherish
ed ihe memory of her worth and virtues.
Our deceased friend encountered many nfilic-
lion* and painful misfortunes, hut he met adversi
ty with a Roman fortitude beuoruule to hi* memo
ry-
As a parent, he was indulgent, kind and affec
tionate, a true aud steadfast friend, an honest pa-
patriotic uud charitable citizen.
Judge Strong wu« for a number of years before
his decease.a member ol the Episcopal Church
and we are allowed to hope that his spirit has found
a resting place with his Savionr and his God !
While the court ia uirested in the discharge of
business and thrown into sudden gloom uud sad
ness. it becomes us to bow in humility to that in-
discru table providence which has thus afflicted aud
bereaved us.
In view of the death of Judge Strong the com
mittee present ihe following resolutions :
Resolved, That the members uf this Bar here
assembled, deeply leel the loss they have sustain
ed in the deuth of their brother Christopher B.
Strong, who was respected aud luved by them
all.
Resolved, That to his friends it is matter of
mournful gratulation to reflect that he passed away
in the miiturily of ripe age, known beloved and
respected throughout the limits of ihe proud
Stale which he hud made the homo of his adop
tion and affection.
Resolved, That as a further mark of respect we
will wear ibe usual badge uf mourning for thirty
Java.
Resolved. That the presiding J udge be request
ed to have these resolutions entered upon the min
utes of the Court, and that the Clerk send a copy
to the family of the deceased, and that they be
published iu tbe public Gazettes of the city of
Macon.
After which on motion of Solicitor General Me-
Cuue, the meeting of the Bar adjourned sine die.

The proceedings of the members of the Bar
upou the melancholy occasion of thn deuth of the

It is upon motion of Rufus IV. .McCune Solicitor
General, ordered, that thn said proceedings be en
tered opou the minutes of thia Coort, as u perpet
ual memorial of the regard and esteem in which
the Court holds the memory ■ f the illustrious de
creased. and as an undying token of the feelings of
