the Con-fusion.
Various rumors of 017re or les i

between the auditor and treasur
with the comptroller general. T 0
visit of the last oilcer to Maing o
last Saturday, on business est.'n'
connected with the s m: -
tributing t) the excitement arous,
determined us to make puli'P what
could be learned concernin tie "
ter. In an interview wit t o
and treasurer, together. on Monday,
both informed us that they were block
ed in making their settlement by the
discovery of nunmeros an se .ons
errors in the. books o the1i:a aU
which have to be cerree:ed w i
assistance of the comiptroler gn
before the settlement can be ulade
The railroad tax, they; said. was one of
the many troubles. ThIe auditor, lat
ly vacat~ing the 1'ie.had ugII ete

and a statement fror th late .auditr

of more import:ueC, byhp

called for the interierence oi the con p
troller general. TIs oicer now h.s
the Books in Columbii, whe.re they C
-are being examined by his expert, anEde
the extent of the mistakes mde in thle c
books of the ex-auditor will not be
known till after his report. Ti .3l ,
likely not be longer than tcu or :1 i
days and then a settlement iLa be
expected to bhe made s uisfacory to
the people as well as to Captain Brad
.bam, the present auditor and Dr. Iu
gins, the treasurer. The comptroner
congratulated both of these gene
xnen on the management of their
opective olices: and as supervisor of
the county com ms;ioners oine, ti
clerk of the board received h1's co,
gratulations on his neat and correct
book-keeping.
It may be well to state bcre, to So
.the consequence of any murnei
