Duty-Mayor Schwarz Announces
the Beorganized Council Committees.
The city council, at "a special meeting
Yesterday, adopted the report of the street
and lane committee, which, as far as it
goes. decides that the citizens Of the First
district are not liable TO road duty; but it
took 10 action to repair the roads, and, as
there is an issue and a legal doubt in the
minds of the justices Of the peace Of the
First district, they did not suspend the
work OF summoning the citizens to work
the road, and will continue the work to-day.
The report Of the street and lane COM
mittee, which is based upon advice Of the
city attorney. is as follows:
The committee to which has been referred
the petition from the justices OF the
peace o. the First district and the
order OF the president of the board
of road commissioners begs leave 10 report That
in its Judgment it is not in the power of the
justices or Of the road commissioners TO call
out the residents within the corporate limits OF
the city of Savannah.

intend to murder, and the trial of which,

evidently too fresh in his mind, and, when
his case was called, the defendant was
absent from the court room, .and his counsel
asked for a postponment.

ponement unless the defendants counsel
would withdraw its demand for trial which
had been made at the last term of the court.
Messrs. Meldrim and 2. j. OConnor, Esq,
counsel for Meyler, therefore wit hdrew the
demand for trial at the present term, and
the case is to be reassign ed for trial during
the term on some day to be agreed upon
between the solicitor general and defend
ants counsel
