COUNTY COUR
No Official Return of the Result of the
Late Railroad Election.
The Matter in Stain Quo.

An adjourned meeting of the County
Court was held yesterday at 10 A. NJ, JUS
tice Ewing in the chair.
sHERIFF's REPORT.
The following report was read:
SHERTFF's OFFICE, Davidson county,
Feb. II, 1872. To the WOrshipful County
Court of Davidson county, have the
honor to report that in consequence of the
incomplete returns of an election opened
and held in this county on the 18th inst, in
pursuance Of an order of your worshipful
Court, a minority of the returns only hay
ing been as yet received at my office, am
unable to make at this date an official re-
turn of the result of said election.
Very respectfully, etc,
&. NJ. DONALDSON,
Sheriff Davidson county.
Mr.. Maxey argued that the court
could take no action in the matter until
complete returns should be made. The
best plan in his opinion for the county to
do, was just to stand still. Hereafter if the
stock should be worthless, the county would
lose $4,000; if it should be good, it would
gain thousands upon thousands of dollars
IN the way Of taxation and costs.
Mr.. Demoss advised delay. In view of
a late act of the Assembly in regard to
holding elections in the various precincts in
the county, (althOugh this sale had been
made before the passage of that act) he
thought it would be wise and prudent in
the court to defer acting at all on this ques-
ton for, say, a week. That would give him
time to examine the rights of tax receipt
men, and to examine the question as to the
validity of the election. Not only
that, but they would have time 10
get all the returns. There was no great
reason for acting in hurry. There was no
man in the county that would not say the
sale was a good one and ought to be con-
firmCd.
After some discussion the communication
was referred back TO the sheriff with in
strUctiOns to send in full returns to the next
meeting Of the court.
Mr.. Childress offered the following:
Whereas it appears that there is now
5000 of the earnings Of the Edgeield and
Kentucky Railroad Company in the hands
of George \. Washington, the right to
which passed to the American Contract
Company in the sale Of the county's
aud its associate vendors interest
in the said Edgefeld and
Kentucky Railroad Company. II Is there
fore ordered that the same be paid over to
said American Security Company upon the
order Of the Judge of the County court
and Thomas Caldwell for the copurchasers.
Mr.. Maxey moved that the Judge of this
Court be paid per diem as allowed by law,
from this date.
Mr.. Wade moved in amendment the fol
lowing: "And that sufficient sum over and
above this amount be appropriated for his
services as fiscal agent of the county to
make his salary $500"
Mr.. MaXey amended his original motion
By adding the words ''and as fiscal agent of
the county the sum of $780,"
Mr.. Wade withdrew his amendment.
After some discussion, Mr.. Maxey's mo-
ton failed for want of a sufficient majority.
Mr.. Maxey withdrew his resignation.
The Court adjourned till Monday the
26th inst

The Louisville Ledger of yesterday says:
"The appearance of the harbor was about
the same as the day previous. The ice foe
continues, and it must be some time before
the gOrges that are breaking loose from the
Upper Ohio get by. The hope Is that a
milder temperature will render them less
dangerous to steamers. The Mail Line
steamers dropped down yesterday to the
lower wharf to get out Of the way ofthe ice
and to find a more secure harbOr. The
ferry-bOats were making trips yesterday oc-
casiOnally, and more frequently than on
Thursday"
