THE IMPENDENT. SATURDIY. NOVKMHEH 1*73. LOCAL MATTERS. Forth. HuinljSulfmrK. The citizens of our town, who are ever ready to respond to the appeals of the dis tressed and suffering, have been again call ed upon to give in the name of charity, and have responded willingly to the cry of the distressed people of Baiuhridge. This year,and t this time above all others, our own people, merchants and business men generally, find it a hard matter to get money enough to supply the bare neces saries of life, let alone to think of giving anything toward charitable purposes. But, from the beginning up to the present time they have been made familial with the deplorable state of affatrs existing in Bain bridge, and were prepared to contribute their share at any time when called upon to do so. Thursday licit the U v. Messrs. Campbell aiulSv -el look this mutterin hand, and can vassed Q'irmau form one end to the other, and spies., and themselves ax highly phased with the result, having in, t with a liberal r one fr > a ill clissm. Too much uam.ot be said in praise of these geutle mcn for Ui 'ir prompt response to the cry for assistance fioin the Suffering people ot Baiuhridge. Tt is net on this occasion alone wc hav* been called upon to notice their acts of kindness, as they are ever reody at any end all times to respond to to the cry of suffering humanity. There are other gentlemen here who have also lent their aid to this noble cause. The “Quitmm Amateur Minstrel Troup” intend giving a performance on Friday evening next at llillyard's Hall in aid of the sufferers. Mr Kayton very kindly tendered them the use of the Hall, free of charge, and was instrumental in the get ting up of the entertainment. The price of admission is only twenty five cents and is within the reach of all. We wish them a crowded house and all success in their undertaking. (Since the above was in type, the Kev. Mr. Sweet informed us that he forwarded fifty dollars to Baiubridge yesterday, and i will forward more as soon as possible. —:o:— _ Fresh goods just received, which were lvought | at panic price*, and will be sold the Marne way Cal! eurlv and secure the cheapest goods yet sol-1 No humbug.

Their photographs are admired by all, and are warranted to endure.

Presentment* nr IHr Ceoiiil Jury- Bhookh Hrviiiuou Comer, ) November Term, 1873. ( In entering upon the duties of the week we are encouraged to find the financial condition of the county healthful and sat isfactory. There are good and reliable assets on hand to the amount of $5,387 28, against outstanding liabilities to the amount of •Bft, 013 £il, leaving the small balance against the county of only s(>'26 00, and while we allude with pride mid gratification to these facts, we are mindful of the trying financial embarrassments that are new in flieting onr common country, and cannot too strongly impress upon the county Judge the great importnuee of strictly ad hereing to a rigid system of economy in in all future disbursements, and the prompt and early payment of so much of the count debt as a proper regard for the public interest will allow. The books of the County Treasurer are neat and business-like, trad give high evi dence of tme fidelity. The books of W. G. Bentley, clerk of tile Superior Court, and the systematic ar rangement of all papers outlie in his of fice bespeak for that public functionary a full proportion of skill and proficiency in the discharge of his official duties, So likewise with the Ordinary. His business gives fluttering evidence of close attention, neatness and promtitudo worthy of com mendation. The public buildings are in a fine state of preservation, and seem to have been well eared for by onr respected county Judge. We ask that the chimney to the Jail be rcpiui txl, anil that an aperture he made in the doors of the dungeon sons to admit the passage of food without opening the doors, and that the fencing around the building be put in good repair. The amount received up to this time from the State for school purposes is *835 SO Raid out by order of the board, $590 11, leaving on hand for distribution $309 72. To this amount there is a bal ance due from the State for 1871, $(130.75, making a balance due and subject to dis tribution for 1871 of $845 17. The amount due for 1873, not yet received is Si,GDI 00 making a grand total of $2, 53(1 17. The working of this sy nm being new, ■n il to oar minds sou,. wb.it complicated, we. as a body are unprepared from the lim ited time afforded for an investigation into its merits or demerits, to determine what amount of beneficial claims it has upon to country. We recommend that the mimes of Eliza beth Smith, M. 1). Kirkland, Thomas Hi-lph, Ouber Morrow and Mrs. B. Mur phy be stricken from the pauper list; that U. G. Fitts and wife receive jointly five dollar* per mouth; that, James A Spiffin’ receive at the rate of forty dollars per an num. and that the pauper fund in the fu ture remain in the county Treasury, and lie paid out under orders from the county Judge, after careful investigation us to the necessities and wants of those asking aid. We fully endorse the settlement made by Hon. E. R. Harden, under advice from the former Grand Jury, with 1). U. Mc- Neil, former county Treasurer, and earn estly recommend that all bonds and other writings against said former Treasurer be cancelled and satisfied upon the payment of nine hundred and thirty-six dollars, as agreed upon, and that receipts in full he passed accordingly. We respectfully request an order by this Honorable Court transferring such minor offences from this to the County Court us come within the Jurisdiction of that tri bunal. We reecommend that Jurors and Bailiffs be paid one dollar and fifty cents per diem for tlieir service at this term, and that the county Judge draw his warrant in favor of one manag r from each Militia District, who brought in and signed the consolidated returns of the late election for Sheriff, for such amount ns allowed by law for siumlnr service at general election. Wo present Thomas Avery, James E. Morrow and S. A. Graves, Road C unniv siom rs for the Town District, for failing to discharge their duties as such, in and upon the road leading from Quitman to Gruovorvilln, and the road leading from Quitman to Dry Lake. We call the attention of the town au thorities to the road leading East from the town of Quitman, and suggest that it be wiudcried and made paaefthle. The dbcketsoftbe various Justices of the Peace exhibited to us, wo find correct and neatly kept. We dissent from the views of the last Grand Jury at our May Term, 1873, mid lowing the Clerk and Sheriff only ten del lain each per annum for extra services; but maintain that they should be paid sucli reasonable compensation as said services are proven to be worth in accordance with law,not to exceed seventy-five dollars each, and request the county Judge to aid is that behalf and that they be paid accord iugi.y- While wo approve the administration of our worthy eouaty Judge, we also dissent from the action of the same body in rais ing his salary from five to eight hundred dollars, ond insist, that tit action of the fjr.-f Grand Jury uppoi:. i o.der the law to determine that question and fix tin salary of the county Judge was final and conclusive, and that no subsequent Grand Jury as the law now stands, can either in crease or diminish the same. We desire the presentments published in the Quitman Banner and The Inde pendent, provided the same can be done ut a cost notexceeding ten dollars each to to the county. In closing our labors for the week and in separating to resume again, the various vocations incidental to life, we each bear with us, and cherish most grateful and profound regards for His Honor, W. D. Kiddoo, our able and accomplished pre siding Judge, as well as Col. R. G. Mitch ell, our courteous and obliging Solicitor General. Samuel W. B kooks. Foreman James King, James Wilson, John F.
