ounty Commissioners, I desire In moke :i briel ^
eply to a communication in your lust issue
im lo i, "llovv <to vve siati I." The Hoard knows
he necessity lor making an annual report of
heir management of the County affairs, nti<I ^
hey ulso feel the eminent propriety of making ^
hut report at us early u day us practicable, and
vill give the puhlie what, they hope, will he u
>ot isfactory mi l instructive report ot the status
if the l.'oitt ly, when tlic time arrives, at which ,
hey can, with benefit to the citizens aii'l jus.
. , . > I a ei
ice to themselves, do s >. It is only necessary
lo say now that the law allows the Treasurer
, in
until the second Tuesday iti Juno to mine mis
or
-ettlemeiit with tlie Auditor, and it is only alter
he
such settletneiit tli.it any satisfi<:tor> or accurate
lej'ort c.in be made, fur the Hoar I never know,
until then how iiiuclt moneyJ hoy will have to
in
pay mi t'onuly obligations or expend in (/Oiiuty ^
improvements. I hey might make a partial rc- ^
port now tin I in the Summer make a filial report
: hut the one made now wotil I he of no value
an I w iul'1 add gr.atly to tiie t'oitnty expenses. ,

With regard to the condition ot the t o 11111y ;
hooks, I wotthl have wished to have had nothing
to say, as I occupy a delicate position with
reference thereto ; hut the article to which 1 am
replying U -so worded as to necessitate my say- ! ^
ing something nb til the con lit ion of the hooks; | .*
for, if I sav nothing. I will he cWiJiiJjIJ'JJ'J .MA-Mi
up thai no report can he male:" while the 01
truth is, some of the hooks are perfect. If 1
deny the rcpirt, saying there is no foundation ' ,c
for it, I will he considered as pronouncing all } xv
the hooks in tlie ollice correct, which 1 am nut , '
willing to do. W hat I want to - ty is, that the ,
Kecoid h >ok, upon which the iniuutes of tue
^15 >ard are kept, and the cash hook, which regit- ,
lutes and shows the expenditures of the t'uiiuiy, ;
are perfect. The same praise cauiul be bestowed ! 1
upon tlie l.e lger, which is also an important i
hook ot I lie ollice. It Iris heen negligently kept
an l has caused me considerable trouble. 1, ' '
however, do not think thet'ounty has lost a cent \
by the Condition of the books; hut the great ! 1
trouble with ilieni Iris been, that 1 could not tell
what was the pa?t in lihledness of the I'ouiiiy, 1
and litis accounts, in some degree, for the con- 1
Ira lictory reports of the County debt. At al- ''
111osI every meeting some past in lehtc l;ic.-s .
which had not been brought in the new Le ! roi\ '

the liabilities, and next taoiith think dill'erent!v :
' I
I can s:?y ol ilie former Clerk that whenever
. u
we have met with any <lilliculiy on the I.clger, , ^
lie lias worke-l faUhfiilly t > xtmii/fihn //, an 1 1 ! ^
believe has in each instance succcc<h'<|. I think ^
no responsibility attaches t.i the Commissioners i
themselves. They know nothing of book keep- | w
ing an 1 the Clerk is a trust otlice.*.

i not mere learning, nor discipline, nor moral

The \\ Hxhington correspondent of the Augusta
Chrnnii-lr is told that the Republicans will al'
tempt to organize the next House of Keprcseutaiives
in deli-nice of ihe clerk's list, so sis to
keep out those members whom they specially
dislike. Another sto-ry is that the nionient
the Republicans secure .domination in iho
Senate, they will see to it there shall not bo.
for a gcucra'ioii at least, any more Hemocratic
Senators from. Souib Carolina and, perhaps,
several other Si.iuUern Stales, ttne plan is to
have in each State n duplicate Legislature that
will elect a Republican Senator who will he admitted.
Another is to reject any I'ciiuicratio
Senator wl>i> shall be elected. This is lively
reading, hut the country is not going to the dugs
to that extent.
