The undersigned, your Committee on Treasu- rer's accounts, respectfully report, that after a thorough examination of his Books and Vouch- ers, they find the Treasurer's account, as render- ed, correct, 'From this it appears that the amount received by the County Treasurer dur- ing the current year, was— out, $741,58 00 The amount paid716,758 78 I3alanen. $224,609 22 State Bonhds on hand $220,000 00 Cash on hand, 4,600 22 $221,000 22 Notwithstanding the above balance in the Treasury, there is, (owing principally to the great increase of- the amount of money required by the Superintendents of the Poor during the past year, and the large amount of returned taxes,) a real deficiency, as will appear from the•follow- ing statement. The Board at its last session provided means to pay the interest on the first issue of County Bonds, and the principal and interest of -the sec- ond issue.. But three Bonds of the first issue have not been presented by their holders, and the interest on them, ($4.5 00,) is yet unpaid.— Also six Bonds of the second issue, amounting; principal and interest, to $2,090 C9, have not been presented for redemption. In settling with the State authorities, the Treasurer received $31,300 cash. The balance net expended for the redemption of County Bonds is $2,508 16. Ho has also received from the State about $3,000 for interest on State Bonds, $65 02 of which has not been expended in pay- ing interest on County Bonds redeemed. A more full statement of these transactions may be found in the report of the committee on County Indebt- edness. The sum of the above stated items is $4, 708,- 03, which is in excess of the balance in the Trea- sury $99 71, as will appear by the follov 1iig statement : Tnterest unpaid on three County Bonds, drat issue, •$45 06 Principal .incl interest unpaid on'six County Bonds, second issue, .... 2,000 09 Balance of cash rev'd from State, over • County Ponds redeemed, . 2,508 10 Balance of interest reed on State Bonds over interostpaldon County Bonds u 5, redeemed, 65 02 ' $•1,708 93 Balance still in the Treasury as above 4,609 22 Deficiency, $011 11 Four committee are of opinion that the Boun- ty Fund should be kopt separate and distinct from monies raised for the ordinary expenses of the County. if this is not done, complications would be likely to arise, which might become dif- ficult to explain or arrange. They would there- fore recommend for adoption the following reso- lution: Jtesotccd, That from the balance in the Treasu- ry, there be re -appropriated the sum of $•15 011 to pay interest on three County Bonds of first is- sue; the further sum of $2,090 60 to pay principal anal nterent on six County Bonds of the second issue ; and that there be levied and assessed up- on the taxable property of the County, tie sum of 899 71 to make good the bounty fund,fhrsnon- es drawn therefrom for ordinary purposes, Respectfully submitted, A. 1].

Griswold from the Committe on County Claims to whom was referred the petition of Rev. Sylvester Minter to have certain taxes claimed to have been erroneously assessed upon him, for the year 1864, refunded, presented the follow ing report and the -same was adopted. Your Coram ittee to whom was referred. the ap- plication for relief of the Rev. Sylvester i1inier from on alleged erroneous assessment on the part of the Assessors of the Town of Lansing sing in the year 1863, would respectfully report as fol- lows: The applicant for relief is a Methodist. itiner- ant minister who for the last two years has been a resident of Cayuga County, but who, owns a farm in Lansing iar this county. The amount of the tax paid by the applicant on account of. this alleged error is $45. This he asks the Board to refund. . • • The whole question at issue in this case is the proper construction of the Statute relative to ex- emptions, the language of which is as follows: "flue following property shall be exempt from taxation * * The real estate of every minis- ter of the gospel, when occupied i`w him, to the amount of fifteen hundred dollars." It is clear that lrr order to • be entitled to the benefit conferred by the Statute, the claimant must occupy the real- estate on which the ex- emption from taxation is asked. In the case be- fore us the point to be decided is this: "Is the Rev. Mr. Minicr an rcc'uI)ant of his farm in Lan- sing, Tompkins County, while his residence is in Cayuga County ?" After a careful examination of authorities, and consultation with able lawyers, your Committee have conic to the conclusion that the applica- tion should be denied. In the opinion at your Committee the words of the Statute " when occupied 8y him," are without meaning, unless the legislature intended by there to restrict the•henefits of the exemption to cases of actual residence upon the premises by A the person who claims these benefits. Neither on nersl i i p nor enjoyment of the avails of a farm can of tiacmelyes constitute .an islets victual at» occupant. of such fariii, either in the legal or ordi- nary sense. But actual residence upon a farm, constitutes an individual an occupant thereof, though, rr.R ira this case, such farm may lie owned rind its fruits enjoyed by a person residing else- where. All which is respectfully submitted. LUrIIEn GRISWOLD, LY3t,tN CO\GDONT, S. E.

William It. Hopkins, November 9, 1803. The earliest action taken by the Board of Su- pervisors in regard to the payment of Bounties. was on the 2nd day of December, 1863, which was for "each volunteer who may hereafter enlist." From this it appears that these parties were not induced to enlist by any promise or inducement of bounty offered by the Board of Supervisors or any of the Towns. Your committee have given th ie matter a most careful consideration, havtuq great sympathy for the soldiers, to whom we should be glad to nee the bounties paid, and regret.ing that we are obliged to consider and decide the case on its le- gal merits. Respectfully submitted. A. B. CORNELI,, Committee. LEVI Corms.
