Consumption, severe Coughs, Group, Asthma
Pneumonia, and in fact all throat and lung dis
eases. No person can use it without immediate
relief. Three doses will relieve any case, and

least to try one bottle, as 40, 900 dozen bottles
were sold last year. and no one case where ii

Report of Committee on Aims House

Report OF COmulLt00 Oh AlA AOuS0'
GEORGIA, CoBB COUNTY:
To H. NJ Hammett, Ordinary Of said Conn
| y:
! We the undersigned appointed by you on a
committee to advise with yon in regard 10 the
management of the County Aims House, have
| visited that institution and make the following
report: We find the farm in excellent condi-
ton the fencing all good and the tenements for
the inmates all good and the inmates all seem
to be properly cared form fact, we do not
| think the management of the same could be i'm
proved, and we are sorry TO learn that Mr.. A.
l.. Rollins, the efficient superintendent and his
wife, contemplates giving up the position on
| the first of Decsfshasaaazasssesr.-
We find there is at this time twenty two in
mates, the most Of whom are old and infirm
| person. We find twenty four head OF hogs on
the place, and the superintendent informs us,
| that eight head of these hogs will be fattened
and killed this winter and will make probably
twelve hundred pounds Of pork. We find five
head Of cattle, two mules and wagon, good
farming tools, blacksmith tools, &c. We find
about eight hundred bushels of corn on the
| place, made this year. four thousand bundles of
fodder, about thirty dozen of oats on hand, and
gooa potato patch, which will make probably
one hundred bushels of potatoes, good lot OF
cabbage turnips and other vegetables in gar
| den.
We fluid Mr.. Rollins is sowing oats and that
when he gets done, he will have about twenty
| five acres in, aud we would suggest and advise
the seeding of ten or twelve acres of the corn
land in wheat. We would also advise the
clearing up and the cultivation of the field
across the branch, as the same is now under
fence, this done, would give about eighty acres
of open land We would suggest to you the
] proprety of considering the matter OF building
| kitchen and dining room, and of the employ
[ ment Of cook where the provisions for the in
mates might be properly cooked, and that the
inmates may all eat at the same place We
| think this would be econapy, in the saving OF
provisions, and that the provisions would then
be properly cooked, for as il is now, it must be
very badly done; this is matter we would ad
wise you to look into.
In Conclusion allow us to express our gratlh-
cation at the good condition we found every
thing ill., and to say that Mr.. Rollins deserves
the thanks of the people of Cobb county for his
management
Very Respectfully,

We have examined the several public build

naton which on motion was accepted, aud Mr.,
George F. Gober was elected in his stead.
We ind the roads Of the county generally
in very goou condition, but not worked or
properly posted as the law requires. but we
presume this is caused more from the fact of
the general misunderstanding OF exactly what
the law requires, than frJm any want on the
part of The authorities trying to evade their
DUTIES, and we recommend that the Ordinary
have the road laws printed in pamphlet form,
and furnish the same to the commissioners and
overseers ofthe county, 40 that in the future
all may know their duty.
We did not visit the Aims House as usual
by committee, the Ordinary having superseded
the necessity of us doing by appointing a
committee to assist him in the management of
that institution, who have made their report to
the Ordinary, and which has been laid before
us by said Ordinary, and we recommend that
the same be published with these our general
presentmen,s. and We farther fecoinmmend
that the Ordinary make the changes and i'm
provements as therein suggested by said com
mttee
Our attention has been called to the large
amount Of money it takes to Pay the Jury fees
of the county, and the small amount assessed
for that purpose. The Jury fees for the pres
ent year will amount to something near $4,000
and other expenses of the court will add per-
haps $500 more to it. and we find that the fund
raised for that purpose will not exceed $1,000,
Now how is this to be remedied and thesea jury
bills paid Off The law we believe makes it
the duty of the county Treasurer to set apart
each fund to itself, and prohibits him from US
ing that fund for any other purpose, at least we
understand ii So
We suggest as one remedy, the propristy OF
having Grand Jury only one week at each
term, as we think there is really no necessity
fer Grand Jury the second week of court, and
only call attention to this matter TO let the tax
payer know why he is so leaaily taxed.
In taking leave of His Honor, Judge George
N. Lester, we return to him our sincere thanks
for his courtesy to our body, and also, to Col.
Greer the Solicitor General for his untiring
energy in The discharge 81 lssl ssand his uni
form courtesy to our body; also to the Sheriff,
Clerk and other officers of the court and re
commend that these presentments together
