Treasurer for the last quarter of 1880,
we find difference Of $43 70, an ex-
cess that the Auditor has claimed and
taken over and above the amount
claimed by the Treasurer upon the
Territorial proportion Of the property
tax, and as both officers have been re-
|ceiving the same percentage upon the
Territorial proportion, we presume
that the Auditor has taken three per
cent. upon the Territorial proportion
Of the delinquentlistfor 1880 The cor
rectness of this allowance so claimed
and taken, we also leave to the Hon.
Board to determine.
We find that there remains unpaid
upon the delinquent list for 1879 the
sum Of 500 25. We find that there
has been paid upon the delinquent list
for 1880, the sum Of $467 43, and we
also find that all moneys collected
upon the delinquent list for 1879, by
the District Attorney, have been prop
eriy paid into the treasury, less his
collection fees.
We furnish with this report a state
ment of the number and class Of licen-
ces sold during the year 1880, and the
total amount Of money received for
same, which we find has been proper
ly paid into the Treasury, less per-

We would respectfully call the at
tention of the Hon. Board to the man
ner in which the delinquent taxes for
1879 have been apportioned, presum-
ing that six per cent. having been al
lowed the District Attorney upon the
amount collected, the school fund
thereby loosing $5l IS, and the Ter
ritorial fund $25 80. We, however,
leave it to the Hon. Board to deter
mine in what manner the apportion-
ment should be made. In conclusion,
we also call the attention Of the Hon.
Board to the unbalanced account of
the District Attorney for delinquent
taxes, the apparent balance due would
be considerably less if his collection
fees were credited. All of which we
most respectfully submit for your APP

Public Schools of the Twelfth District.

Mr.. EDITOR: 1t was my pleasure
with the other two comm. .ssione,s, to visit
the public schools of the 18th district on
Wednesday last. The schools visited are
taught by Mr. Maxey at Middle Brook.
Mr. Burrus at Lyons View. Mr.. Bennett
at Cedar Grove and Miss Lizzie Mary at
Lones We found Dir. Maxey very in
telligent and gentlemanly instructor, ad
vancing his students with considerable
zeal. Mr.. Burrus, colored, has a large
school of quite promising colored children
under his charge. He seems to be well
versed in advanced methods of teaching
and has the reputation of being an indus
trious worker. Mr.. Bennett has large
room full of shsrp-looking children, who
are quite nicely disciplined and are being
rapidly and thoroughly advanced. Mr.. Is.
is energetic aud gives considerable promise
But the school visited. which possibly sur
passes any school within the bounds of the
county, is taught by Miss Mary. The
room. for elegance and for complete and
convenient apparatus, is quite equal to any
in our city. The perfect descriptive, and
able. A splendid organ on the stage is
used for nearly all the movements of the
school. The school sang out of "Joy to
the World" very sweetly.
A splendid dinner psrtaken of at Mr..
Mary's enabled US to continue our visits
in the afternoon. We reached only about
one-third of the schools of the district.

Attaching a Railroad Contract or.

About twenty-five laborers, white and
colored, who have been employed by Ran
dolph Ross, contractor for portion of
the work on the X. g. o. Railroad, at Black
Oak Ridge, came in yesterday evening, on
foot, in search of their employer, in order
to receive their wages. They worked half
the day, and were to receive their pay, but
the paymaster did not come to time,
and they grew uneasy. On arriving here
they fonnd that the contractor, Mr.. Ross,
was at the Atkin House, and approached in
body, demanding in boisterous style, an
interview with the gentleman, swearing
Vengeance against him if their money was
not forthcoming. MIR. Wiley, the pro-
prieter, soon quieted them down, however,
and delegation were allowed to wait upon
MIR. Ross, but were told that his paymaster,
John Ellison, had the money, and that
he had none at all. They found
Ellison, but he did not come to time either,
telling the men that Ross had given up the
job and he (Ellison) would employ them
and continue the work
This would not satisfy the men and they
went straight away and each took out an at
tachment against Ross, at the office of JUS
tice Allison, for the various amounts due
them. The papers We're placed in the
hands of an officer and served, and hear
ing will likely be had to-day.
