PAULDING RECORD. ISSUED EVSEY THURSDAY —BY— GEO, WOODS k COMPANY, DALLAS, GA., FEB. 25th, 1875. Colonel Frobel has completed the survey of the Altamaha and Oc mulgee rivers. It is reported that the party are of opinion that the latter never can easily be cleaned out so as to allow the passage of large boats as far up as Macon. The bill dividing Alabama into eight Congressional districts has passed both Houses of the General Assembly of that State, and only awaits the Governor’s signature to become a law. This apportionment gives seven of the districts to the Democrats (taking the last election as a test,) by majorities ranging from 1,300 to 9,000, leaving the Re publicans the fourth district, in which they have 14,755 majority. The proposition to sell the Wash ington Navy Yard is stated to be a move in Philadelphia interests de signed to throw the work and patron age of the establishment into League Island, and also to enable favorites of the Navy Department (which is known to be controlled by influences from that quarter) to buy the land and property in Washington below their value. Whether the yard goes or stays, there is a fat job in store concerning it. Grand Jury Present men Is, Feb ruary Term, 1875. We, the Grand Jury selected, chosen and sworn for the present term of the Court, beg leave to make these our general presentments. Through our committee we have examinded some of the county officer’s books and offices as well as the public buildings, and made inquiry into the condition of the roads and bridges of the county. They report the books of the Ordi nary’s office all correct and neatly kept, reflecting much credit to the present incumbent in office. They find the office and books of the Clerk of the Superior Court well kept with correctness and good order. On account of the sickness of his Honor Judge Underwood and the shortness of the session of the Court by continuance of nearly all the cases of the Court, also occasioned by the sickness and absence of many of the leading mem bers of the bar, our committees have not had time to examine the other offices and officers books, but we have reason to believe they are kept in good order, and leave our unfinished business in this respect to the attention of the Grand Jury at next August Court. We find the public buildings generally in good irJer. We recommend that two stoves be provided for the Court room by the next February Term of the Court with pipes to be from the stoves to the flues of the chimneys, and two more tables for the use of the Court-house. The jail we find in good order. As regards roads and bridges, we find them in good order with some exceptions where the duties of the Road Commissioners and Road Over seers have been neglected, and we recommend unless they receive th§ proper attention according to law by the next term of the court, that the defaulting officers be dealt with, and we call the attention of the County Commissioners to some holes in some of the bridges that need at tention. Our Treasurer presents us with the following statement: Total amount received fiom all sources since last settlement... .*3,240 92 Total amount disbursed and commis sion since last settlement 2,703 75 Total on hand 543 17 We find his books neatly and cor rectly kept, showing proper vouchers for all entries on his books. We find that lie had on hand at last settle ment of August term of the Court public school funds as follows: Public school funds for the year IS7I. .$4,265 Amount paid since as per vouchers.... 1,965 2,300 Leaving $2,300 not called for, and amount school fund the year 1873.. .$2,250 Taid out on final settlement as per vouchers 2,250 Leaving 0,000 And we find his showing satisfac tory as it has always been hereto fore. We have appointed and elected J. M. Spinks, H. C. Ritch, and Taylor Morris, as members of the County- Board of Education, as provided by law. We recommend the Sheriff be paid thirty (S3O) dollars for his extra services at this term of the Court. We recommend the Clerk of the Superior Court be paid fifteen (sls) dollars for bis extra services, at this term of the Court. We recommend the Bailiffs that were out at night for witnesses for our body and the Court be paid two ($2) dollars for each night they were out, besides his pay per day. We recommend that the $2,300 in Treasurers hands from funds of 1871 be applied to the payment of teach ers accounts for the present year, 1875. We find most of the bills before our body come from the improper use of whiskey, and hope some law be made to govern the case. In the conclusion of our labors we tender to his Honor Judge Under wood our thanks for his attention and courtesy to our body with our sym pathy in his sickness at this term *f the Court, and hope that his health may soon be fully restored, and to Solicitor General C. T. Clements our thanks for his instruction and the efficient manner in which he has aided us in bills of indictment. J. 11. Cleghorn, Foreman. Rufus H. Wills, John E. Bag by, James C. Lane, Zach N.
