The Grand Jury of Muscogee
posed of some of the best men
county, completed its work and w
charged yost: nlny. Though tho session
was brief, made so upon t ho recommenda
tion of Juil;;r Johnson, villi a view to
economy, much was done nud recom
mended, winch, if acted upon by the
Court, will have a tondouev to rid our
community of at least one evil—that of
carrying concealed weapons. Wo learn
that some seventy-live true bills were
found, mainly based upon this practice,
gatubliug and Sunday tippling. Hitherto
our graud juries have been too tondor-
foited, ignoring, in n measure, these Ha-
grant violations of Statu aud municipal
law. But the present jury, feeling the
great necessity for action, has laid strong
hands upon tho evil doors, and if just
punishment is not meted out,it will not be
because an earnest, honest effort lias not
been mado by these rcspoctablo conserva
tors of the public welfare. So well satisfied
was Hi.* Honor, Judge Johnson, with tho
work of these men, that he took occasion
publicly to laud in complimentary terms
their zoal in the cause of reformation ; at
tho same time condemning with merited
censure the evils sought to be remedied.
Now that tho good woik . is boon inaugu
rated, wo trust that it wi.i bo industrious
ly prosecuted until the last offender has
been brought to terms, and the cause of
law and order established upon a firm and
permaneut foundation. We have had by
tar too much of pistol murders, nud of
Sabbath profanity, to say nothing of tho
p it 1 vo violation of well known statutes;
and the man, or Hid of men, who lend
their lull nonce to the cause of reformation
will bo entitled to tho gratitude of all
good meu. and deserve to rank as bene
factors. It now lemainsfor Solicitor Lit
tle and Judge Johnson to complete the

—Bartlesville is ngitatiufi the temper- I fences will tmve tu be abandoned from
ftuce question. ° j necessity, and the cost of material is so
vi .. ,, . . • ,1 great, that the fences around and in some
Marietta, as a cotton market, is doing „ . ... ,, ^
*u~.. i.„r I farms are worth much more thau all the
stock running at large.
Why should not the owner of stock bo
required to guard them, as well as the j
owner of a crop to protect it from their :
ravages ? The stock having more privi- j
leges than their owner, can leave his land
and trample upon aud destroy the pro
perty of his neighbor. Where is the j
justice of this ?
Figures could be adduced to show the 1
immense cost of fences, but we deem it
unnecessary, as every intelligent man is
awaro of the correctness of our position,
and knows that it costs much more to
fence out stock than to fence it in.
We present the practice of allowing an
imals to run at large upon the highways
as a nuisance that should be abated by
proper remedies.
CABRYINO CONCEALED WEAPONS CONDEMNED.
We cannot close our session without
reference to and condemnation of a habit
that seems to bo exercising the public
mind throughout the Ftate. We allude to
the carrying of concealed weapons.
Though statute after statute has been
euacted against it, no good effect has re
sulted. A great many persons violate the
laws of the land in this respect, and in
many instances it would seem as if com
munities constituted one vast armory.
While during the existence of war,
or when in a revolution, every oue
deems his person exposed to the violence
of an enraged mob, such a course of con
duct might be approved and justified.
We cannot but deplore it as an evil of
great magnitude ; that in time of peace
when communities aro quiet and their
members are persuing their daily avoca
tions for support, that this practice should
bo indulged. Many a time simple quar
rels between individuals would pass off
with a blow or a bruised eye or cheek,
and the peace and quietude of a neighbor
hood suffer no further disturbrnco were
it not that deadly weapons are brought
into requisition ; the death of one or tho
other party ensues, and untoM misery in
flicted upon a happy and contented house
hold. It is to be hoped that tho holy
and refining influence of religion, if
nothing else, will effect a cessation of this
illegal and barbarous habit,and bring men
to a proper observance of the divine in
junction, “Thou shalt not kill. ”
THE HABIT OF INTEMPERANCE.
Another growing evil which may al
most be termed a national sin, seems thus
fHr to have baffled the efforts of legisla
tion and to bo without a remedy. We ro-
fer to the drinking of urdent spirits.
Drinking saloons are on the increase, and
these fashionable dens of modern civiliza
tion inflict great distress upon society.
There a deadly stab is often given
to honor and reputation. The father
and brother there enter upon a career
of selfish iudiilgenoo, and on their return
homo the caresses and words of endear-
ment of mother, wife am* sisters, are met
with unkind words and bitter reproaches.
We solemnly warn the young men of the
day against frequenting these places of
resort, because tho habit of intemperance
when once contracted incapacitates a man
for all public duty, withers the powers of
his understanding, and renders his mind
paralytic.
THANKS RETEBNKD.
Wo beg leave to return our thauks to
Judge Johnson and Solicitor Little for
the courtesy which they have extended to
this body during its session.

Crand Jury Presentments.
Grand Jury Rooms, Doc. .*», 1873.
Wo, tl»o Gruml Jurors, chosen and
sworn for tho Fall 'Term of the Superior
Court of Muscogee county, make these,
our gonoral presentments:
PUBLIC BUILDINGS.
On examination, we find that the recent
storms havo to some extent injured tho
roof and feucos of tho Jail. I11 every
other respect it is in tho most perfect
order. It is kept in the most cleanly
mannor possible, and the prisoners aro
well eared for. 'Tho present jailor, in
our opinion, in a most efficient officer,
and dosorves a groat deal of credit for
tho efficient discharge of the trust im
posed upon him.
The Court House, we find, is in need of
tho following repairs: Tho plastering of
the upper story Ims soverul breaches in
it, and many of tho window blinds have
110 fastenings, and are liable at any time
to be blown off, or to break tho sash, lu
oue of the basement rooms wo find a con
siderable quantity of inilauimuhlo ma
terial, which should be removed
immediately. The guard rooms
wo find to be very filthy, aud recom
mend that tho proper authorities pay
strict attention to this mattor. In tho
petit jury room, wo find thoro aro no
ohuirs, and recommend that u sufficient
number be placed there.
'The locks to several doors in the build
ing aro out of order, aud should be re
paired. Wo are unable to report tho san
itary condition of the place as good as it
should be, and recommend that a free
use of disinfectants would benefit tho
matter.
THE ASHYLUM FOR THE POOR.
From the report of the (’lurk uudTroaa-
urcr of tho Board of Trustees of the Mus
cogee A asylum for the poor, we find that
tho largest number ot inmates at any timo
during tho year has boon twenty-seven,
and the smallest seventeen, of whom,
three liavo died, one old nogro man nud
two old white women.

ROADS AND BRIDGES.
Tho roads and bridges of tho county,
as reported by the ltoud Commissionors,
under oath, arc in good order and condi
tion, in fact, much better than they have
been in for years, except tho Hidgo or,
Torch Hill road, leading to the loft from
the Owen Thomas place, which is in bail
order. Wo would recommend that the
road known as tho Talbotton and Buena
Vista road, bo abandoned by the county,
as it is of very little benefit, and by so
doing it nill enable the Commissioners to
work a larger force and keep in better
condition other roads in the District of
much more importance to the county.
We would recommend that the first 1 \
miles of tho county lino road to wbero it
intersects with tho Talbotton road bo
made a county road.
MAGISTRATES.
We fiud the Magistrates’ books properly
kept, with the exception of the manner
iu which they dispose of criminal cases
brought before them. These irregulari
ties seem to havo arisen from a misappre
hension on their part of a power vestod
in them, rather thau from an inclination
to assume unwarranted authority.
