The result Is given below: Atlanta, October 25.—Ik la. perhapa. generally loowu in tie State that a large amount of property in Georgia enjoys a legal Immunity from the bur- d tos of taxation, but it la not so generally known iuat what this property la. the amount nor the time exempted- A very considerable portion of it is rail road property, the Western and Atlantic. Central. Georgia and Southwestern railroads. But there t* • different class of property scattered here and ^.<3 over the State under the ten year exemption •ct, which, owirg to the approaching expiration of the term provided in the act, will scon become au important factor in estimating the State's revenues. Tliie prpoerty is the cotton factories and Iron works which were exempted under an set approved August 22d, 1872.

These properties In moat Instances have largely biased in value since the exemptions were grant- fi and the various companies have been paying to the state the tax on the excess. It will be observed that In the case of some of the companies the time of exemption expired this jur, and all the others will loss the exemption daring ^ext year. The total of property which has been exempted under the act of 1872 amounts to $1,373,775, and the tax on U aftsr next year will make a very comfor?abla addition to the Income of the State.

REPORTKD 8COOP OF TOE CEN TRAL RAILROAD. Savannah, Ga., October 23.—The dis patches from Savannah to the leading New York papers of Yesterday rfgirdiDp a re- >o>ted scoop of the Central railroad by the Richmond and Danville ereated som< thing of a sensation when the fast mail arrived this morning. The railroad people attach uo importance to the rumor, and it is gen- erull believed here that it has no founda tion in fact. It is said that it originated in an argument in which a general connection with an influential banking house main tained the theory that tho action of Central block was due to purchases on account of those who control the Richmond and Dan ville, with a view to Boooping their jrincipal competitor, which theory was ngeniously evolved in totle fret possibly by persons interested in depressing Central stock and given to the correspondents of the New York papers. It is also stated that*the telegrams were not sent from Savannah, but that seems to be an unwarranted as sumption. The telegrams did not affect the market, which is dull at 98 bid ami 99 and 100 a.<ke<l with light offerings. TO CONTROL THECENTRAL. SUPREME COURT OF GEORGIA.

TAFFY FROM THE IZ VR. Tho Czar Iunei r. Flattering Address to Ilia Army and Fleet. St. PETBBsntmo, October 20.—The Czar issues an order of the day to the army and navy in connection with the newly erected monument in memory of the Rneso-Tntkish war. It reads as follows: 'May this memorial of the Russo-Tnrkish war be always a memento of the self-denial and heroism of the warriors who, with God's help, covered the Unssian Hug and name with fresh glory. On this festal day I address myself to you, commanders, ad mirals, officers, soldiers and sailors, my gallant army and heroio fleet, to tell you that I trait to your unswerving devotion, and am proud of your deeds of glory in common with the wholo of Russia.

The M. St N\ O. lUllrtnd Matter. Atlanta. October 25.—The indicatloua are that the Marietta ami North Georgia railroad matter will be prominent, not onlj In the court*. but in the Legblature. Since the publication of the In* Junction milt lu the TclkuraI'S, the discussion of the merits of the question baa taken a wide and general range. Aa it la the province of thla bu reau to give accurate reporta, aa far aa possible, of tha current of events, it la proper to say that both •id** of thla question have exceptionally strong ad vocatea, which give promise of a strong struggle for supremacy. Friends of the railroad company *1*1 w that it undoubtedly baa equitable claims against the Htate, upon which the resolution of th* last legislature was bated, and that the Supreme Court has so decided. The Htate gave the road a certain number of on- vlcts with which to complete the road, ond subse quently took them away. It la farther set up in thii connection that the preeent constitution in its interdiction of Itate aid to railroads makes an ex- oeptlon in favor of the Marietta and North Georgia railroad, In which the State’s concession waa air ady h» operation. The opposition takes the view that theiiutiis under no obligation whatever to the ^Arietta and North Georgia road, and that the aid proposed by the leglaia iv# resolution la a gratuity and dr nation to the road, aud therefore unconsti tutional. It U alleged that the managers of the road, with •am* apprehension on this point, hate hurried up thi completion of the road to the North Carolina line, so as t > get all the benefit of the position that they ha 1 compiled with tho conditions Imposed by the legislative resolution, and now have vested rtgbta under IL A prominent lawyer and citizen of Colnrobus, •ho was in Atlanta to-day. thinks it will be a great mistake for the State to undo Its action in thla mat* t*r.

It is voted that the complain ant* comply with tho foregoiog order on or before the 6th of November next." New York Suu. Savannah, Ootober 22.—It is learned here to-night on the very highest authority thnt tho recent heavy purchases of Georgia Central railroad stock, with voting proxies, for New York account, is in the interest of n Uiuveuieul uu luu part u£ the Itiuiiuiuud and Danville system to secure oontrol of the Central at the meeting of the stock holders of the road on the first Monday in January. The Central rood comprises 2,300 miles of track in Georgia, Alabama and South Carolina, with steamship lines from this port to New York and Philadel phia. Despite John II. Inman's denial, it is well kuown by your correapondent’s in- coulr »- formaut that he ia the controlling spirit in the movement. General E. F. Alexander, now in New York and onco president of the Centnd syatern, is undoubtedly the man who will be pushed by the llichmond and Danville for the presidency of tho Cen trnl. John II. Inman is already interested iu the Hichmoud and Danville to the tune of $1,010,000. Within the past twelve months the Cen. tral has tapped five of tho most prominent points of the llichmond and Danville sys tem in the finest part of the South Carolina cotton belt. This has, of course, greatly reduced the business of the llichmond and Danville from that source, and it is to over come this and any farther onoronebment that the present fight is made to gobble tho Central. It i* believed hero that recent purchases in New York in the Inman inter eat aggregate in the neighborhood of 18,000 xhnrcs, aud it is believed that Geo. Alexan der will be able by personal friendships to control at tho coming meeting suffi cient ahares to insure his election. The Inman interest, however, has so far been disappointed in securing control of 6,400 shares held by Mis. llattio Green, and this block is expected to play an important pait in tho fight. Georgians, and fiavannahlans iu particular, are awakening to the foot that Mr. Inman's interests will bo all in thedirec. tion of taming traffic over the llichmond and Danville instead of tho Central, and to Norfolk as against Savannah, and on this account the opposition to tho contemplated coup d’etat, os now exposed for the first time, is expected to become more deter, mined from this tirno on.
