We call the attention OF our rca
dcrs to the order a|bolishing tn,
county school tax IN Lowndes
This concession was forced from
the Board of supervisors by tn,
overwhelming will Of the people il
/ council. Our citizens should do
the same thing. The Board of Com.
missioners claim that they are APP
plying this fund more economically
than anybody in this section, and
we think they are doing very we'll
so far; If this is the case, why
should the fall tax be required
when in another county with more
extravaganza expenditures the peO-
pie can SCI tire schools can be well
supported without the imposition
OF the county tax. At this time,
and with such prospects as are be-
us, anything that will tighten
the enormous burthen of taxation
is y public good, aud if our citizens
we're not so ~apathctic under the
'rnle and ruin" process that is de-
us, and lettering our ener.
S!eS, We could make these officers,
Who because they are not elected
" the people, seem Indifferent to
he expression will of those whom
hey oppressive could make them,
&c repeat, give us some relief from
hose oppressive demands.

The LunatlC Asylum Investigation.

1t has been sometime since re,
ports were circulated duplicating
DR.. Compton, Superintendent OF
this Institution, in grossly improp.
CT and immoral conduct with some
OF his employees. These reports
were rife in this community, and
they have gone to the rcmotcst
parts OF the State. We forebore to
mention them and to publish the
facts in detail on which they were
based as they were communicated.
on being informed that the Board of
Trustees of the Asylum had institu-
ted an Investigation and would
make a report upon the case. 1t
has been two months since this in
vestigation was commenced, and
yet no report has been made, nor
action taken. Meantime the public
are left in tho dark. Under the
existing Law, the Trustees who arc
among Our most intelligent, respect
and best citizens, can exercise no
practical authority over the Super
lntendent or the management ofthc
institution. But they can at least
submit the results of their dclibcra-
tons to the public who are sup
porting the institution, and whose
hearts arc bound up IN its proper
management, especially in consid.
GRAFTON Of the peculiar class of un.
fo%rtunates who arc the beni6ciarics
Of their liberality. If they are not
prepared to convict the party i'm
plicatcd nor yet to acquit him-they
at least to let the testimony
be published, SO that the public can
