Mr.. John L. Nance, OF this county. who
has been running saw mill, planning ma
chine, cotton gin, ETC., at Bowman in Gilbert
county, Ga, the past year or two, had his
gin house, n portion of the machinery and
several bales nf cotton and about 1000
bushels of cotton seed destroyed by fire on
the night Of Saturday, 18th inst. The loss
amounts to about s., 500, and the cause of
the fire is unknown.
AS the 1st of November approaches the
cotton receipts increase daily. owing to tbe
TACT that that is the last day on which cot
ton will be received in payment Of fertili-
zers at an advanced price. On Tuesday the
receipts amounted to 298 bales. and ON
Wednesday =. square was crowded with
wagons, and the receipts must have amour
ted TO quite as much rs on the day before.
Up to Tuesday night the County Treas
urer mad issued about $500 tax receipts and
collected about $2S, 600. There is yet bal
ance of about $4,000 to collect, and only
five days more nre allowed by law in which
the Treasurer can collect without penalty.
TO collect this amount in this length of
time will be impossible, and unless the
Conptroller- General extends the time for
payment there will necessarily be large
number OF delinqucnts. The same condi-
ton OF affairs exist in other counties of the
State.
