Last Friday and Saturday Judge Mankey heard in Chambers in Co, lunbia a petition brought by E. J. Scott E'rj., in behalf of the taxpayers against the citycouncil of Columbia, for an injunction to provent the connoil from increasing the indobt odness of the city. The complaint shows that on the 13u.h of Marcha 1872 an act was' passed authorizinag the eity coenoil to issue bonds from time to timuoto an anmount not Gx. eceeding $600,000, "it being thereby intended that the whole Indebted.. nle s thereof, whether by bonds or otherwise shall be at nuo time in. oroased beyond the said suin of $60)0,000." That at a meeting of citiaens on the 30th November 187.1 a cotomittce was apapointed to ex amine into the affairs of the city concil, that by them a sub--commrit tee wvere appointed who had access to the books; but that those books were~sQ badly ken& t~hbst nothing oould be learned from them. .That the plaintiffa andl other Qe~iiqp, md ie d'emanud on the onnoU 'for. an oexhibt iin financial condition of Columbitth4t a' promise .or suoh exhibit was promised but that though several months have einpsed, no suobch xe hibit has been made. That thec books and records in possession of the sidi 'council show that since March 1872 the debt has been largely in,, orS~sod that it har reached the limit prescribed in February l1874 and that on the 30th of A pr il 1874 had reached the sum of $6l,000, and that on let August 1875 it reached the sum of $700,000. *That there are $42,000 of jr~dgments against the city and the t reasury 4s empty, and that for these debts ex ceeding the limit, cortilicates of in. debtednsess are continually issuing, receivabl as taxoa, thins antioipating the revenne of nexit year. That the law providies, in easoe limit Is passed that any bondholdlor, or tax-payer of the city can enjoin the councll (romn *sburring furthei debt. Wherefore the plaintiff demandu that an inquiry be made into the affaire of the city and that the conncil be enjoined from dhelaying the exhibji demanded, that the debts in excess of the limit be declared invalid and that the council be perpetually en. joined from paying the same or any part thereof, and also from ineurring any additional liabilities.
