get her released, and said she could
pay a few dollars, il could get n
portion of her fine RENTED. | went
to MIR. Lambert, and he agreed to
release her on the payment of So,
which was paid, and Mr.. Smith got
the money. And that is all there is
of it, except, that in the settlement
with Smith, | noticed a bill against
Alb. Burke, turned In as voucher
by the Sergeant. and no credit on it.
He had forgotten to give credit for
the money which Alb. Burke had
paid on her fine. lie made a credit
when his attention was called - ii,
of 81, and afterwards changed Il TO
the right amount, So. / am entire
ly satisfied with my part of the trans
action, if Mr.. Smith is with his.
Let the public judge.
His allusion to a family in cor
poration government, we presume,
he thinks quite smart. As far as
known, none OF those to whom he
thus refers, have been caught in at
tempts to swindle the corporation.
l presume they were elected to the
positions they hold, for the reason
that those who TINS elected them,
believed them both honest and ca.
pable, and up TO the present time no
charges OF dishonesty or neglect have
been preferred against any OF the
family" 1t would strike an OBJ
ssrver that a whole family il hon
est, would hardly be as detrimental
to the interests OF the corporationas
a light-fngered fellow in a crowd by
himself. But that is a matter for
the public to Judge of.
And now | am done with Mr..
Smiths card, but not quite with
him. Since his resignation as Ser
geant, / have discovered little
transaction in which lot Of brick
belonging to the corporation was
sold, the money for which went into
his hands, and no account given of
it. The sum is Sandstone eight or
nine dollars-but the taxpayers
would like to know If this brick mon
ey has ''gone where the woodbine
twineth." | have, In addition to
this brick money, knowledge of sew
eral other small amounts collected
by Smith and not accounted for, ali
of which / have referred to the
chairman of the Finance Committee.
MIR. Smith complains Of being
bounded after he has resigned. The
fact is, my report was submitted to
Council before his resignation, and
probably forced IL.
My mission as a .'reformern was
to reform Mr.. Smiths way of doing
business. | have succeeded to my
entire satisfaction, and await with
much serenity, his next card.

The Morgan Mercury says: The
case of Samuel Whisner VS.. u. Men,
denhall, tried in our Circuit Court

Mendenhall's mill about four years

the greater portion of it. The jury
in the case took the view that it was
a bailment and did not allow val
US for all the wheat. They allowed
Mr.. Whisner one hundred dollars.
