EDITOR TIMES The beautiful weather which
VIC experienced during the holidays has passed
away and now we have the consolation Of en-
joyng n "drizzly drossly" mixture, accompa-
MED with those delightful London fogs, on
small scale.
The holiday season passed off quietly and
nothing disturbed the serenity and quietudc
of Jonesvillc but chicken fighting among the
sporting fraternity. And now every one is set
tied and about ready to commence operations
with King Cotton. Fertilizers have commenced
to arrive and ii can be only hoped that they will
be beneficial during the coming season.
The Joncsvillc Academy opened on Tuesday,
last under the management Of Miss L. c. Bailey
and it appears that tho Board of School Trus-
tees of Joncsvllc Township are determined to
always employ u first c.a;s teacher in that
school. With the facilities Of the railroad and
the good character of the town, there can hardly
be any doubt but what Joncsvi!le Academy will
rank second to no school in the County after q
lew more sessions.
A small fracas occurred on Sunday morning
in town, between two colored men, and with the
promptncss and efficiency OF the Town Marshal
ncr," they were both landed safely in the GALA
boose.
The Photographic gallery of Ncsbilt s. Whit
lock must be doing a thriving business of late,
judging by the crowds Of vehicles and people
which arc constantly about them. We dropped

Good Fertilizers.

o Money in the Treasury Again.


The Board Of County Commissioners met last
Monday, but there was money in the Treas
ury again, greatly to the disgust and disappoint
ment Of number of County creditors who had
come from q distance fully expecting to get
large part, if not oil that was due them. This
fery Of 40 money in the Treasury is getting too
common and unaccountable, and we would like
to know who is to blame. 1t does seem to us
that the Treasurer has had time since the clos
ing of his books over two months ago-to make
n full report to the Commissioners. at least upon
the tax for county purposes. The executions
issued arc almost entirely for poll taxes, which
applied to the School fund alone, and certain
ly the county creditors should not be made to
await the uncertainty of the collection of the
whole of that tax. There is great complaint,
and not without cause. a claim against the
county now is about as unreliable as such claims
were six and eight years ago, and nobody will
buy them unless at the most ruinous discount.
The worst of the matter is most Of those who
hold them are poor men who cannot afford to
make such sacrifice on their labor.
The Commissioners say they could not demand
n report from the Treasurer until the 18th, two
days after their last meeting. Then, in view OF
the pressing demands of creditors, why did
they, not appoint meeting on or Immediately
| them, instead of waiting another month. There
| is want of system somewhere which should
| be supplied.
