HE BOARD OF StpERy.soss-slct on
the 23rd inst, to conclude Tie auditing Of
claims against the tdtH,9, End to lay the
county levy. The whole amount Of
claims against the county audited, inclu.
ding the salaries Of officers; poor claims,
jury claims, etc., etc., amounted to about
$4,000. while that for 1868 amounted 10
over $4,000.
The county levy WIS laid 1T 80 cents
on tic 500, which includes all taxes for
county purposes, and which, It was csti-
mated, would leave 4 handsome surplus
at the end of the fiscal yMr-Hhich is 10
cents less oil the $l6O less than that o.
last year.
We also notice that the Board made IN
order refusing to pay for coal and fuel
used BY the Sheriff and Tailor in their
own families. We are glad to SEQ this
for the county has no more right to pro-
vide them with shch articles, than to FUR
alsk them With bread aid meat.
The Board then ordered that there be
four days work done on the roads Of this
county, in the townships of Jane Lew,
Wiley, Lincoln and Battelle, and FIVE
days in Sheridan-in addition to tue two
days now required by law.
They also directed that q road tax Of
scents on tho 500 be levied in Jane
Lew, Batte'lc, Wiley and Lincoln; and
