LOCAL MATTERS.


TREAsURER's REPoRT.-In another col
umn will be found the report of the County
Treasurer showing the receipts and disburse-
ments of that Office from August 9th to Novem-
Der 10Th, period of three months and ten days.
1t will be seen that the total receipts into the
county treasury, during that period, exclusive
Of the amount on hand at date of last report,)
was Sjj,976 81, of which $4l ,048 81 was for
county purposes, and $l4,92S 04 belonged to
the State. The bulk of the county property tax
was collected during the period included in the
report. Mr.. Lambert is now engaged in ma
king out the report of the County Auditor,
which will be ready for publication in a few
days. The Auditors report show the county
expenditures, for different purposes, during the
past year, and the present condition of the
county finances.
CITY TAXEs.-The city assessment roll, for
the fiscal year ending May LIST, 1860, was to-
day delivered over to the City Marshal for the
collection of the taxes due thereon. The total
assessed value of city property, this year, is
SSl2, 2,l24, against $733,7S2 last year, showing
an increase during the year of S7S,342. The.
rate of taxation this year is the same as last
fifty cents on the hundred dollars-and the rev.
enue accruing to the city from this source is
estimated at a little over $4,000, exclusive of
the cost of collection and the amount that will
be returned as delinquent. Az will be seen by
the notice of the Marshal, published in another
column, that officer is now prepared to receive
taxes, and from and after Monday next will be
in his Office from 10 o'clock \. NJ till p. NJ. Of
each day, for that purpose
RoBBERY.-We learn from Mr.. Phillip, the
expressman, that the store of Lewis Shubener,
at Washington, was broken open and robbed
last Monday night. About ten o'clock in the
evening Mr.. Shubener closed up his store and
left when he returned he found it had been en-
tered, and a navy revolver, some cutlery, and
ten or twelve dollars which had been left in the
money till, carried off. The value of the arti-
cles stolen was about one hundred dollars No
clue had been obtained as 10 the perpetrator of
the robbery.
CONDITION OF MoRRIs.-Geo. Morris, who
was SbdOUcu III Nlic bdOh Idob ucoud1 GNGulliB
by negro, received much more dangerous
wound than was at first supposed. lie was ta-
ken to the hospital on Thursday last, (having
neither money nor friends) and DR.. Hunt in
forms us that the knife penetrated the lungs,
inAicting very dangerous wound, which as
likely as not will prove mortal. The negro was
arrested last Thursday by Constable Asher,
examined before Justice Smith, and committed
to Jail for assault with intent to murder.
BAPTIST CHURcH.-For some time past
workmen have been engaged in finishing the
Baptist church on Spring street, the frame of
which was erected several years ago. 1t is now
being plastered, and when completed will be
the neatest church in the place. We presume
1t will be ready for service in the course of two
or three weeks.
AUcTIoN.-The large stock of dry goods, Of
Lubbock & Co., are to be disposed of at auction.
The sale begins on Monday next, and will con-
tinue from day to day until the entire stock is
