An act relative to the fees and emoluments
of the Auditor of Public Accounts, and to
repeal section three of act No. ii Of 1872,

and House of Representatives of the State

yened, That section three of act No. 81 of
the acts of 1872, entitled ian act to limit
and define the duties and powers, fees and
emoluments of the Auditor of Public Ac-
counts and other ministerial officers of the
State and to prohibit them from instituting
or defending actions, suits, writs or other
process for or against the State, and from
employing counsel and incurring costs Of
court, attorneys fees and other unneces-
sary expenses to the State, and to define
the duties and powers of the Governor, the
Attorney General. the district attorneys
and courts Of the State in certain cases.
be and the same ia hereby repealed.
SEC .. Be it further enacted, etc, That
the Auditor of Public Accounts is entitled
to all fees now allowed by law, and which
have heretofore been placed to the credit
of the interest tax fund.
SEC 3. Be it further enacted etc. That
all laws and parts of laws in so far as they
conflict with the provisions of this act, be
and the same are hereby repealed, and that

The Senate then went into executive ses.
sion.

81 of 1872, and which now revert to the "in-
terest tax fund.-" but are sought to be re-
nlaced by Senate bill No. z, were authorized
and allotted to the Auditor by act Nc. 346
of 1855. from which time and forward they
amounted. as is believed from the best in
formation attainable, to from $4,000 to $4,000
per annum.
It is beyond doubt, however, that during
one wear of Auditor Wlckliffes administra-
ton. these fees returned a very large
amount, according to the reports by clerks
who were employed by Mr.. Wicklitfe, and
are still in this office, to from $4,000 to
$4,000; but as no proper or accurate ac-
count appears to have been kept at that
time of such fees, except such as appears in
the annexed statement, 1t Is difficult TO give
any relia ble and positive data.
| further say that at the time when the
act was passed creating such fees, it was
believed that the Auditors salary was too
small in consideration of the responsibilities
and the important work devolving on him,
and these fees were permitted. to be charged
to parties in redemption of land, and as
not coming in any manner from funds OF
the State. or from current taxpayers.
In conclusion would respectfully state
TO the honorable Senate that / shall en-
deayer to discharge my duties as Auditor
with fidelity to the State, though | should
receive no other compensation than at
present. and | only ask that they do in the
matter what in their wisdom may seem Just
and right.

"HoR long. Oh, How Long 2,

On Wednesday last two men got
into a row near the depot when one
Of them drew a pistol and shot at
the other, but doing no damage
On Wednesday night some unknown
parties waylaid Henry Walker, the
barber, and gave him pelting with
rocks. Almost every week we have
a street fight and yet there has not
been am arrest made by the corpo-
rate authorities for months, unless,
perhaps, it be some poor fellow who
was too drunk to resist. Now, the
question is where's the corpora
tion?' Is it dead, or only sleeping
until tax-gathering time? All! that's
where the fun comes in. They'll be
on hand then sure. We think we
are law-abiding and always willing
to do the flair thing" but we now
say to our people, refuse to pay tax
until these and many other neglects
of duty be rectifed-until we have a
corporation to pay tax to. If we
are to have a corporation. let us
have one, indeed, but if it is to be a
mere money machine" let us stop
their rations.

DiSgraCcfGl.

On last Sunday, some drunken
rOughs put in an appearance in our
town, and behaved themselves in a
most boisterous and disgraceful man
uer-cursing loudly and firing two
shots from a pistol, near the centre
of the town, much to the disquiet
and disgust of all good people. And
all this within the limits Of our "cor-
poration." What do our town au-
thorities mean? Have they no re-
gard for the peace, order and quiet
Of the community? Such conduct
as was had on last Sabbath in our
place, is a disgrace, and that the
perpetratOr' go UNPUBLISHED is a
burning shame to those officers of
the law whose duty it is to look after
the arrest and punishment Of such
transgressOrs.

Good Advice.

DR.. J. G. Holland, in Scribner's
Monthly for July, says: Nothing
can be more cruel and nothing more
foolish than to place children where
they must be dressed every day in
fresh and fashionable clothes, and
their freedom to play curtaiIed for
the sake of appearances. What
childhood needs is perfect freedom
among the things of nature-free-
dom to romp, to make mud-pies, to
leap fences, to row, to fish, to climb
trees, to chase butterflies, to gather
wild-fowers, to live out of doors
from morning until night, and to do
all those things that innocent and
healthy childhood delights in, in
cheap, strong clothes provided for
the purpose. Exactly that which
childhood needs, manhood and wo-
manhood need-perfect liberty and
perfect carelessness. So, whether
the dweller by the sea go inland for
his summer play, or the resident Of
the inland city go to the sea, he
should seek some spot unvisited by
those devoted to fashionable display
and pass his time in unrestricted
communion with nature, and in those
pursuits and amusements which,
without let or hindrance, perform
the Office Of recreation

A Cure for Cholera.

The Knoxville Chronicle, of the
9TH, says: ''In view of the fact that
other portions of our State are being
scourged with that dreadful disease,
cholera, it behooves every one to
Immediately provide themselves with
the best known remedies, for, to be
cured at all, cholera must be cured
quickly. The first symptom Of this
disease is usually a painless diar-
rhea, accompanied with feeling of
GOODNESS in the bowels. Where the
cholera is prevailing no other warn
ing is necessary, but the person at
tackled should Immediately lie down
and keep quiet, have a large mus
tard poultice prepared and cover the
entire abdomen. To stop the diar-
rhea nothing has yet been discovered
more efficient than DR.. Lytle's Elk
If, taken in liberal doses, which
should be taken as soon as possible.
Should the case be stubborn and
pain and cramp follow, take a large
dose of DIR. Harris Great Relief in
wardly and have the limbs rubbed
vigorously with the same. BY fol-
lowing these simple directions, no
one need fear cholera.
