i equal in area, population, and weaisn. |,
THE figures show that while the levy LOT
Caroline was SI2,13i, her school levy ", was
| %. 400 about one fifth OF the whole. Inc
entire leyy.for Louisa was $i0, 7I8. Ia; her
school levy, $4, 938s 48--nearly one han OF
the whole; and for Hano yer the entire levy
was s14,684.56, and Its school levy was only
Sf,G28.44--about one ninth ofttne5 Wnoie.
The levy for the county OF Louisa3'or the
year lust past was for all purposes 27t cents
on the 800: OF which 15 cents vas for
public schools; while the levy for Hanover
was only 8 cents on, tho 800 for schools and
fftu cents on the 800, Tor other county
purposes, or four times as much as Louisa.
a The committee cannot but think that our
county administration generally should be
reformed. See, for instance, in the way OF
criminal charges paid at the treasury OF the
State Caroline, s465.71; Louisa, 1851 !;
Hanover, 81, 1919 2."s
The report went on further to state that
in the opinion Of the committee the line Of
railroads.&c. property OF the Richmond,
Fredericksburg and Potomac Railroad Com
pany and that Of the Chesapeake and Ohio
Railroad Company so far as they are in the
limits Of this county and paying tax to- the
State-sbould be, equally liable with the
other property in the county for its just pro-
portion OF the county levy.
Major Page moved that the committee be
continued, and to cooperate more fully and
report the next court-day.
Mr.. Morris moved that the committee
should be changed from nine to three.
Mr.. Hill Carter offered as substitute for
the whole:
ssResotued, That we see no reason to COM
plain OF the present county administration,
and believe it to be as cheap as can be eX-
pected under the existing laws"
Many gentlemen spoke, disclaiming any
personal reflections upon the officers OF the
county, but stated they could see no reason
for Directing to an investigation.
Judge Redo stated that he saw in Colonel
Nelson's report nothing that reflected on
him Judge Redd), but great deal that
was suggestive, and that he was glad TO
have an Investigation, and any assistance
which a committee might render in redu-
cling the county levy. He stated that q great
deal Of the county expenses was due to the
shape and geography Of the county, which
would have to be changed to reduce the
expenses much; but he hoped that MIR.
Carter would Withdraw his substitute.
The vote being taken the substitute was
carried.
1t was then moved and carried that a
committee OF three--one from each district
be appointed to fully investigate and report
at the next meeting at February court.
The Chair appointed as a committee Colo
mel William Nelson, from Beaver Dam dis
trict; W. W. Newman, from Henry dis
trict; and General Williams G. Wickham,
from Ashland district.
On motion, the meeting adjourned.

NEW YORK, January 19.-It is reported
that Owen Murphy, the fugitive excise
commissioner, is dangerously i'll at Ottowa,
and bis wife insane.
A Hartford Comm special says q new
effort is making there to save the remaining
assets of the. Charter-Oak Life-Insurauce
Company by keeping it out OF the hands Of
q receiver and re0rganizing it as q purely
mutual company. The stock is to be merged
and wiped out and the policies scaled.
Legislative intervention is necessary in Or
der to effect this, and therefore new char
ter will be asked for. 1t is thought most OF
the policv-holders will cooperate with the
managers in their efforts.
The often-adjourned case wherein Samuel
J. Tilden is sued by the United States for
alleged unpaid iucome-tax came up before
Judge Blatchford to-day. Demurrers were
entered to each of the nine counts, which
counts the Court decided to take up sepa-
rately. The first count charges $4,000 back
tax for the years 1861 and 1852. Tilden's
counsel claimed that the laws passed about
that time were recognized as necessary war
measures, and annulled the law requiring
the payment of income-tax in that year.
Judge Blatchford sustained the demurrer,
giving Tilden. the first victory.
