COMMISSIONERS PRoCEEDTNGs.-Board met in
regular session last week, which lasted four days.
great part of the time was consumed IN hearing
road cases. The only business of importance
transacted was the appointment of viewers to ex-
anime and make boundary for new election
precinct in Washington and Lexington townships,
embracing Mt, Union. A petition was also re-
ceivsd praying for new election precinct Perry
township, including the village of Rchyne, but
no action was taken. In the matter of taxes, the
Board has taken an important step toward re.
trenchment, which will be felt and appreciated
by the people. For 1873 the Commissioners coun-
ty levy was mills and tenths, for this year they
have made 1t 3 mills aud 4 tInths. In 1875 the
State levy was mills aud tenth, for 1876 lis .
mills and tentbs, a total reduction of one mill
and two tenths in the general levy, which Is quite
an item of saving to the tax payers.
