amined the bill Of Allen &eBpekInS for

and recommended its payment. Conf
oerning the bill OF z, Booking, for
medicines supplied ON order OF Doctor
Hildrsth, amounting to el.70, they are
ofopinIOn Il should not be paid, Doctor
HIIdreth not being authorized to give
any Bnch order, and although the
amount Of this bill is small, the Com
lnitIes think IL. allowed 1t would be
an entering wedge Tor larger bills. The
Committee also report adversely on the
bill OF Smith Mcdonald, late sergeant
of the city of Wheeling, amounting
to SlI.O0. From the statement OF the
Prosecuting Attorney OF this county
il appears that Mayor Sweeney, OF

think neither Mayor Sweeney nor any
other municipal officer has any legal
right to order or make Contracts bind
ing Ohio county. The COMMITTEES also
report ad VeTsely on the claim of Joshua
B1rIey so far as relates TO the per cent
age for Assessors' licenses. Concerning
