THE ROAD RAW.
Some Pertinent Remarks About It.Blnuen, Decatur Go.. 14a., Aug. 10.—
Editor Morning Mews: Your editorial of arecent date on public roads aud roadlaws was timely. The most tyrannicallaw on tbe statute books of Georgia to-day is the road law. It was evidentlyframed with a view to reach the negroes.The rebound has taken place, and thereare hundreds of honest white men di-gusted with it. The authority vested inthe commissioners is despotic. They canmake bunds serve ooe-twentieth of thewonting days in each year, uncalled for.or smuggle ever without doing muchgood at will. It is very commonto change overseers each year. Ninetimes out of ten be is someunsophisticated youth who knows nomore about the principle of road workingthan—well, myself. One will lay the foun-dation for a drain to carry off the water,another will come and fill it up! ’Tis adisgrace to Georgia that the Atlanta ringis permitted to net a half million annuallyon oonviot labor, thus competing withfree labor, and free labor at home work-ing for the public. A per oent. placed onthe poll tax for hiring the roads workedwould be better than the present system;hut a more just system still, in my humbleopinion, would be ad valorem taxation,excepting where men subject to poll taxhad less than SIOO worth of property, orno property at all, be made to pay a rea-sonable part. Bids then could be let to
■ the lowest bidder tor keeping each road inorder,aud it would be someone’s business,and not everybody’s, as now. We used tohave less complaint, better roads and abetter oountry. T. A. C.
Nearly all the machinery has been pur-chased and 90,000 feet of lumber orderedfor the sugar mill at Kissimmee. It willhave a capacity of 10,000pounds per dsy,and if the business warrants it the ca-pacity can be doubted.
The crops are excellent inLevy county,notwithstanding the heavy rains whichhave fallen lately. Reports come in thatcotton Is beginning to open in severalparts ol the county. The season for thefall business Is near at hand.

The number of whites in the eightcavalry companies is 898. In the Savan-nah Hussars, the only colored oavairyoompany in the State, the number is 34.In the Chatham Artillery and the Jack-son Light Artillery, both white, there are128 men. In the Georgia Artillery, col-ored, there is a force of 23 men. This is atotal of men, uniformed and equipped,presumably ready for service, of 2,877.
The force is well armed with guns. Thethree artillery companies have threeavailable pieces. Tbe State owns twoGa’ling guns, received from the generalgovernment, valued at $1,300 each. Oneof these is in possession ot tho ChathamArtillery, and tbe other is in possessionot the Sixth Battalion.

Of this amountthe State of Georgia pavs nothing, nordoes it contribute a dollar in any otherway to the support, maintenance or en-couragement of its military organizations.What Is received cornea from the generalgovernment at the rate of $5,500 per an>nun, and this is rapidly absorbed, oftenbefore tbe State receives it. The quotaof tbe State tor the present year, not, yetreceived, is already covered by requisi-tions.
In addition to the infantry companiesin the list already given there are theGainesville Volunteers and tbe Green Ri-fles, notice of whose organization waspublished lust week.
Widle tbe State is just now unable tofurnish arms to new companies whichmay organize, it is proner to say that incase ot war with Mexico, there wilt be notrouble about procuring arms. UncleSain w 111 tie only too glad to furnish armsto all volunteer companies that may bethirsty for Mexican gore.

An Irish Turk.From the A Uinta iffit.) Journal.
It will be reoollected that severalmonths ago parties dressed as Turkswere here selling what they claimed to bearticles manufactured in the Holy I,and.Our shrewd and cultured friend, thePresidentof the Grant Park commission,met the same crowd, or a similar crowd,in a SVestern city. He pretended to beexamining the articles carefully with aview of purchasing, and remarked, with apositive air. “Did 1 not meet you in Tip-perary?” The ostensible Turk shrugged'his shoulders and gave a negative reply.
Thiukiug that there must be some rea-son for the question, the pretended Turkinquired:
“When?”“Oh!” said Col. Root, with a bland
smile, “about thirty years ago.”The Turk replied that he was not born
then.“I am sure that I met you in Tipperary
then. lam not mistaken about the mat-ter. You were in a fourth class oar.You know these articles here never sawJerusalem. They were made at Newark,X. J.”
This aroused the protended andbe asked Mr. Root to conduct his conver-sation in French
Mr. Root said he could doso, but he pre-ferred carrying It on in Arabic, and shotat him several Arabic sentences. Liftingup his hands fn tones of surrender, theTurk said:
“Be jabbers, an’ yees are too muchfor me!” He was really a son ofGreen Erin.

Minister llell Kiplalns tlie Action ofthe Law of Hollandof ISSU.
One of the host of Americans who Im-agine themselves to be heirs to great for-tunes In the Old World recently madeapplication to the Hon. Isaac Bell, Jr.,United States Minister Resident at TbeHague, for information conoerning anestate of cash in bank and lands whioh hehad been led to believe he was entitled tocome Into possession of. In his reply,after declaring the fruitlessness of theapplicant’s quest, Mr. Bell remarks asfollows upon the general subject!
The numerous inquiries on file at theLegation, from persons in tbe United9tates who claim large inheritanceswhich they suppoto were bequeathed tothem by the European branch of thefamily oonvlnce me that a systematicfraud has been and still Is beingpracticedupon those persons by scheming sharperswho make a living by keeping alive andwarm tbe excitement about the existenceof unclaimed estates in Holland forAmerican heirs. The frequency withwhich applications for information withregard to supposed inheritances in thiscountry have been made to this Legationsince my arrival here by persons residingin the various States and Territoriesprompted me toaddress an official inquiryto this government upon the subject. Itappears from the reply of the Foreign Of-fice that the legislation of this countryuas effectually and Anally disposed of allsuch claims, even it inherently inst,whichwere not presented to and proven berorethe Commission of Liquidation establishedin 1852. Under.the old Dutch law the ad*ministration oi unclaimed estates proper-ly belonged to the different “Orphans’Chambers” created from time to timethroughout the country. In March, 1852,the States General passed an act provid-ing for the organization of a commissionwith authority to take possession of allsuch funds and estates and to adjudicateanffdisuose of all claims against tne es-tates ofdeceascd persons as well as againstthe government. In pursuance of the re-quirements of the act, all claimants werenotified by advertisements inserted iu theofficial journal to make a full statementot their claims with proof of descent andidentity*. Alter six months a second ad-vertisement was inserted having the samepurport. Under the law all funds and es-tates to which claims had not been estab-lished after a lapse of live years trom thesecond notice, escheated to tbe State. Thelaw of March, 1852, has therefore effect-ually and finallydisposedof all unclaimedfunds and estates in this country origi-nating prior to that date. There hastheretore since 1857 been no such thing InHolland as an unclaimed estate origina-ting prior to 1852.*
