EDITORIAL GLIMPSES. Several elian^cs have been made in tho schedule of the Central railroad. The Boston Exposition is very favorably received In Georgia and Southern states. Tito Worth Star says, MaJ. liill Harris had a good garden all through the winter. Lucky 'William. A number of Earthquakes recently oc curred at Marcia, Spain. A number of houses were destroyed. It would occur to any, but a very Igno rant man, that, to tax a dog, would make the animal dearer to him. Seethe point? Oh. yes. Georgia need never Par a defalcation in her treasury so long as D. N. Speer has charge of it. The funds will always be found present or accounted for.| Clark Mills, the Washington sculptor, who died last week, drove and ox cart nine months in Charleston, w hen he was fifteen years old for five dollars and his board. Col. Hardeman, President of the Georgia State Agricultural Society, announces that the next Convention will bo held in Ma con on the 20th day of February next. It Is said that Flipper, the Atlanta negro West Pointer, who was cashiered for al leged stealing, and who joined tho Mexican army. Is now a brigadier general ia that service. The Women’s Temperance Union would prevent a good deal of the misery they deplore if It could persuade the young men who Indulge In nose-paint. A young man with bad habits doesn’t usually do much harm as long as lie has no family to wreck. Prince Jerome Ilonaparto placarded a manifesto, the object of which was to show that the French Republic was a failure. We have not seen the manifesto as it has not appeared In our papers. Ho was ar rested and imprisoned and will probably bo exiled from France. At the time we write, Saturday, two Congressmen are at the point of death, in Washington City. It may be both are dead. They are Mr. Ilerndon, from tho Mobile, Ala., district, and Mr. Shackelford of North Carolina. Mr. Reese of the 8th Goorgla district is reported quite sick with a throat affection. The Savannah News says, Atlanta ladles are not(>d for their huge feet, Macon ladles for their devotion to chewing, Augusta la dies for their beauty, and the Savannah la dies for their grace and charming man ners.” The ladies of Mlliedgevllle are no ted for their usefulness and true inward goodness. An Atlanta letter in the Augusta News has this item: ‘‘Gen. Austell’s children sent to Itily for a muasolemn of pure white marble which will cost $16,000. This will bo tho handsomest tombstone in tho South.” The monument in the cemetery at Mlll- edgeville, over the grave of Col. Benjamin Jordan, cost $20,000. Tho Washington correspondent of tho Atlanta Constitution says that Senator Brown has closed a contract for twenty- live hundred tons of steel rails which will make tho Western and Atlantic Railroad «olid steel its whole length, by supplying the place of thirty miles of iron rails now in use. This doesn't look much like Sena tor Brown expected the suit to forfeit the lease to amount to much, or that he is very anxious to surrender the lease. Adjourned on Saturday last. Wo publish below a synopsis of the business transact- j ed, for which we are indebted to tho cour tesy of Capt. Walter Paine, Clerk of Court: I The State vs. Louisa Lewis, indicted for murder.—Verdict of guilty and recommen dation to imprisonment in penitentiary for life. Tho State vs. Mack Wiggans and Mack Davis—cattle stealing.—Verdict guilty, and recommendation for mercy. Sentence $50.00 flue and 12 months in chain gang. Same iu regard to Wilson Walker and li .ai ry Howard, charged with same offence. The State vs. Bartow Gause— stealing horse.—Plea of guilty. Sentenced to lour years In penitentiary. The State vs. liufus Rutherford—assault with intent to murder.—Plea of guilty. Sentence to line of $40.00. The State vs. Tom Johnson, (col’d)—hog stealing.—Plea of guilty and sentenced to pay a fine. TheGrand Jury brought In a bill against Hamp Brown, Judson Ayres, Wrn. Payne, Robt. Davis, Glasco Bell and Henry Mitch ell. for disturbing public worship. There were no very important civil cases tried. -———♦ » » — GRANT FOR A THIRD TERM. A Washington dispatch says, that a movement is being made to bring out Grant as a candidate for a third terra. The mean ing of this is Empire. Those who are en gaged in this movement, say, openly, they want a stronger government and one man rule, and they think that all the great rail road corporations, the banks, the specula tors, and millionaires of the country, arc ready for an empire and will readily en gage in the scheme to establish it. We do not believe they will. Some may desire it, but the majority are not yet ready to echo a scheme so damnable as that. Our opin ion is, the Republicans fear a defeat in 1884, and think that Grant could more cer tainly lead to victory than any other man in their ranks. Grant was a fuli-tledged candidate lor the nomination for a third term in 1SS0. The Republicans knew his history well, and would not nominate him. The result of the election last November, does not justify the idea that, as a party, they are united in a desire to break down our free and democratic institutions. We think that many, in that party, have dis covered the occult arts by which their lead ers have sought to change tho government from its pure simplicity to one more intri cate and unrepublican, to destroy the states and concentrate all power ia the hands of a more majority, preparatory to the establishment of impcralism upon our Institutions in which the people are the sources of ail political power. Many of them have seen tho political corruptions and crimes which have result ed from the doctrines of their leaders. Tins is our opinion, and upon it we found our hopes of reform and safety. Those men will come to the aid of the Democrats in their efforts to preserve the institutions and liberties we have inherited from tho revolutionary fathers. To attempt to run General Grant for a third term upon the programme of a strong consolidated gov ernment, with the hope of an imperial es tablishment, will bring to the Democrats a million of Republican votes, in 1884. The | Republican people, we do not mean the lead- j ers, love liberty as well as the Democrats, j They see how they were misled, and have decyphered and comprehended the hidden i porter, purposes of their leaders, and are deter- “Vos, sir," said the venerable man, “I was. r,, j My mother prepared the supper on the mined to go Into the ranks of the Don - - . n| » ht „ r the anrt x cariie d cake and crats for their political safety.

Last Monday issued Iu our court, and it attracted some old g. ntlemer,-, and the first we met was Mr. William Buies. He was in good health, and glad to see us. Well, uncle William, we said, tell us something about old times. Tho venerable man replied, “I am to-day I b: li- vt, the oldest native born citizen of the county.” The Reporter asked him how It was so. “Sir,” he su'd, "I was born on Town Creek dividing Baldwin and Hancock, on the Baldwin slue, in 1803. I moved to Wilkinson county when a boy, and have lived all my life within 16 miles of where I was born. I only say, sir, I am tho oldest living citi zen oT Baliiwin born in the county here to day.” Uncle Billy BmIob was right. But j as he moved out of the county when a boy, | wo pass on to another old citizen, Mr. A. ! W. Martin, and let’s listen to this good j old man’s talk: Mr. Martin, we asked, tell us something you know about old MUledgeviile, and the times long, long ago. “Certainly, sir, and where shall I begin?” Hie reporter asked him to go ahead, ami he wouldn’t often interrupt him. Mr. Martin said: “I was born in Han cock county in 1810, and came to Baldwin when a boy, and only lived hero a few years, wiien 1 went to Maoon, and then to Texas, where I passed most or my life. I can’t claim therefore to be au old citizen oT Milledgeville, as to the years I have lived here.” But, said tiie reporter, you were hero when Gov. Troup took the reins of govern ment? “Yes, sir,” said Mr. M., “and I will tell you a little about him. He was short in stature, but compactly built, and straight as an Indian’s arrow. He did not occupy the Governor’s bouse, as It was called, on account of a family affliction, but boarded Washington, Jan. 12.—Mr. Ingalls, in the Senate, introduced a bill to provide 1 for determining the existence, and also tho : termination of the inability of the Presi* ; dent of the United States to discharge the ' powers and duties of tho office. The bill ! provides, that whenever the heads of the ] departments shall state in writing to the j Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, that the President is unable to discharge the : powers and duties of his office, if the court be not then sitting, tho Chief Justice shall, within ten days, convene it to hear and determine summarily the question of the alleged inability, and if upon said hear ing, it shall appear to said Court that such inability exists, they shall certify their decision to tho Vice President, who shall thereupon exercise the duties and powers of President. The second section makes a similar provision to determine the removal of the President’s disability. Referred to the Judiciary Committee. House.—The House considered the Whip ping bill and struck out the draw back, free ship and free material provisions, by a vote or 158 yeas, to 54 nays. The bill then passed. Senate —Jan. 14.—Mr. Ingalls Introduc ed a blil to provide for the appointment of a commission to consider the subject of railroad transportation, and all abuses in regard to combinations, exorbitant rates of freight, etc., and in what manner exist ing evils can be remedied. The commis sion must report to Congress by the first Monday in December, 1883. House.—The House passed the army pension bill. It appropriates $101,700,000 to pay pensions on one year. Tho fortifi cation bill was also passed. The pension for total blindness is fifty dollars per month. Blindness in one eye twelve dol lars per month. Total deafness twenty- flve dollars per month. Impaired hearing in proportion. Senate.—Jan. 15.—Mr. Butler, of S. C., introduced a bill, making an appropriation with Mrs. Jenkins who kept the hotel at 1 to continue work on the jetties of Charles ton top of the hill as you come up from the Oconee bridge. [This house is now oc cupied by Judge L. II. Thomas.[ lie was very fond of horse-back riding, and he cut a lively figure when he rode out, as he of ten did.” Reporter.—One minute: You knew Col. R. L. Mott, late of Columbus, Ga., and l-mg a trustee of the Lunatic Asylum, and who was so sadly killed in the Atlanta de pot, a few years ago? ‘Yes sir,” said Mr. SI., “I know him well, lie was a tailor in Milledgeville, when I came here. He made me many a suit of clothes, and he made the suit or clothes Gov. Troup was Inaugurated in. Oh, those were exciting days—Troup and Clark— never saw anything like it. Even the boys caught the fever, and nicknames were giv en youths as they favored Troup or Clark.” Well, Mr. Martin, said the reporter, you know something of Gen. LaFayutto’s vis it here in 1825? “Yes, sir, I saw it all,” said Sir. Martin. “The General was escorted to the city hy a cavalry company from Hancock county, (forget the named He and escort were ro- eeiv. il at or near the Oconee river by the Baldwin cavalry company, commanded by my step-fat her, Capt. Wm. F. Scott, who kept the Hall named for LaFayette, loca ted just where the Catholic church stands to-day. It was the biggest day I suppose Milledgeville ever saw. Thousands were here from adjoining counties, and even dis tant towns.” You were at the ball In the State House, given in his honor, I suppose, said the re ton harbor. The Senate considered the Tariff bill. The tariff on cotton seed oil was placed at 25 cents per gallon. House.—Gen. Joseph Wheeler was sworn in as a member from tho eighth District of Alabama. Senate.—Jan. 17.—The Senate discussed the tariff bill. Senator Vance, of N. C, discussed the crockery and glassware schedule. Ho read a circular of the Mal aga Glass Manufacturing Company of New Jersey, announcing that after four months Idleness caused by strikes, they have resumed operations anil are working with “French operatives, who have prov ed equal. if not superior to native Ameri can workmen.” The American workman would soon see that he was used as a dupe by tiie men whose professions or “protec ting” him were merely a pretext for levy ing taxes. In the House. J. T. Cain was sworn in as a delegate from Utah. The main business in the Senate on tho 18th was a continuation of the discussion of the tariff bill. There was but little business of impor tance in the House. Both houses adjourn ed early in respect to tho memory of Mr. Shackleford, a representative of the State of North Carolina. fear the efforts of their leaders to bring forward General Grant to make a stronger government and establish a one-man p ov er. Let their leaders put him In the field if they desire it. It will bring to light facts that were overlooked, and acts of his, that will appear In a far more damaging light than they did when he was looked up on as the greatest General of modern times. Ho can never rank with Crosap Frederick tho Great or Napoleon. They succeeded with inferior forces, lie, with overwhelming numbers, over tho wasted forces of the Confederate States. GOV. STEPHENS THE PARDONING OF couriers. A good deal has been said about Gov. Stephens’ pardoning some of the convicts. The Union <t Recorder has said noth ing about it, and alludes to It, now, oniy j to say that its confidence in Governor j Stephens’ wisdom and justice is such | that it felt satisfied that there was a good | and sufficient reason for him to do what j he has done in the premises. We knew but | little about tiie eases, but wo knew that Gov. Stephens was not the man to act in that famous house.” Just once more, persisted the pencil p jsher—do you remember any incidents connected with the great occasion? “Not many—one at least,” said Mr. M. “A gentleman was carrying ten thousand dollars in a pocket under his coat, and when he discovered the loss of it by some pick-pocket in the great throng, he fell , backwards on the floor inafainting fit.

Several State Legislatures on the 9th elected members to the United States Sen ate. Among them, John M. Palmer was nominated by tiie Democrats of the Illinois Legislature. Eli Saulsbury, Democrat, was re-elected In Delaware. A. H. Gar land in Arkansas. Ferry led the vote in Michigan but the joint election occurs to day. W. P. Frye was re-elected from Maine. In Massachusetts, Hoar received 15 votes, Long 21, Crape 2. Hoar will prob ably be elected to-day. In Minnesota, Wln- dom lacked one vote, which lie will doubt- j lees get to-day.

We respectfully refer the n- bore question to our Granger friend of the Union & Recorder.—Telegraph & Messen ger, 17th. Bro.

We have greatly regretted to see notices of some embarrassment in the affairs of this road. It is a favorite with the peo ple of Augusta. The Directors held a meet ing on the 17th, and wo infer, from their proceedings, that the trouble is only tem porary. Tho president, Mr. Eugene F. Ver- dery, and the other officers have performed their duties satisfactorily, and so far the earnings of the road have even exceeded the expectation of the stockholders. Within & short time it was thought they would bo much greater, and this view is justified by what has already been accomplish ed. The friends of the road know no such word as fail in this enterprise. To give an idea of tho management or the — 10 ’ las lK5<ln operated for six ^ “V'i P , ‘ r . c *- inl or its gross earnings —a remarkable showing. WILL THE TAXATION BE REDUCED? The idea appears to prevail at Washing ton that the tariff will not bo reduced at the present session of Congress. The Sen ators are the Ambassadors of what ought to bo sovereign States.

Another incident that happened about that time: Mr. Henry Duncan was to be married at night. Everything was prepar ed and all ready for the ceremony, but the groom didn’t appear. After long waiting liis arrival, in vain, he was sought for, and found at his room in bed and fast asleep.” When aroused and questioned as to his dereliction, lie replied, “well I forgot ail a- bout it.” The interruption was only tem porary and was made right.” After thanking Mr. Martin for the pleas ant interview, the reporter took his de parture.

The vote, of every member of either House, will be examined with exacting scrutiny. Relief must not bo delayed. The oppres sion has existed for twenty years. Pub lic Indignation is fatigued,and punishment is at hand for all who betray the public confidence. It will come as sure as sun rise, and as certain as fate.

We believe that Governor Stephens wiH exact retributfvo justice, but he will not go beyond it, and we admire him for it. This is all we care to say on the subj.>ct of his par dons. TO STOP BLEEDING. Any gunshot or knife wound, on a limb, arm lor leg, can be stopped by a natural tourniquet. A string will do, ora gallows, ora handkerelhof. Just take ycur suspen der or yotir handkerchief, tie the ends to gether, surround tho limb, above the injury, then put a stick in tho loop and twist it around, and the bleeding wHl be check ed, until a physician arrives. Thousands of valuable lives have been lost, because no one knew what to do about the acci dent. For instance; suppose two boys her Intelligence and wealth, and tiie little j were in tho woods hunting two miles from town from which your correspondent town, and one was shot in tiie fore-arm, wriles, was a model as a moral and re- | figious village.

All wild want tiie approbation of the people must look well to tli- ir will. No man can stand now, "Uncumbered with a creed.” He must show himself and stand or fall upon his acts. The day of deliverance has come, and those who wiii not perform their- duty arc doomed. It matters not whether they fill public or private stations, if they arc dependent upon the acts or decisions of the people. We hope all will heed the warning and act accordingly. HOW MUCH DO WE FORGET. It Is humiliating to reflect how little is subsequently retained after passing through the trying ordeal of school and college life. At least seven school-boys, out of ten, make a point of forgetting their Latin and Greek and sorno other studies, too, with as much rapidity as possible. Some of them say that such persons are bettter than those who never studied tiie the classics, Ac., as an empty censer still has a grateful odor from the perfume it contained; but we suspect tiiey would rather sit down to one full bottle of- Port than smell to a dozen empty claret bot tles whatever might have been the fra grance of their bouquet. Person who ro- j tained so much that he could afford to boast of what he bad lost, was justiii d in exclaiming to a chattering pretender, “Sir, I have forgotteu more than you ever 1 knew." But after all, it Is better to have j knowledge to brag of than ignorace. “How comes it,” said a flippant youngster to Dr. Parr, that you never wrote a book? “»up- | pose we write one together.” “In that way,” said tho Doctor, “we might indeed make a very thick one.” “IIow?” “Why,! by putting ir. all that I know and all that you do not know.” *rThe wonders of modern chemistry are apparent in the beautiful Diamond Dyes.

In the main we try to be hopeful. “It is a long lane tiiat has no turning.” When it turns we will let you know. J. G. H. Jeffersonville, Jan. 17, 1883. We are pleased to accept the exchange of jour paper for the Savannah Times, under its new management. It has been enlarg ed and much improved by its present pro prietors ar.d publishers, Messrs. Richard son & McNulty, experienced and capable journalists. The Times is published daily, except Saturday, for $6.00 per annum. It is a good and reliable paper, and printed in our groat seaport city. The jewelry store of Mr. A. S. Desbouil- ions, on Bull and Congress streets. Savan nah, was entered by burglars one night last week, the safe opened and robbed of jewels, watches, Ac., to tho amount of $lo,ooo. No clue to tiie robbery, as yet. Our Dog—Ho is not a big dog, indeed lie is not a year old; but ho is tho smart- ■ est dogoutsldeofacircus, weeversaw. If I we were to recount the several smart Tea- | lures or our little dog “Bridge,” it would take a “patent outside” or a “Supplement.” j But we don’t Intend to afflict the reader at 1-ngtli with our deg’6smartness. Wegivea | • sample.”as the cotton men say, and leave | the consequences with tho general public. ! “Bridge'* our puppy sentinel on the watch- tower, can hear the rattling of crockery 1 and tin vaie, three blocks. If tiie doors ; are all closed, at supper time, lie furiously i assails some imaginary intruder, barking ! as though lie believed us ail in imminent j peril. Up and down, here and there, lie | attacks the enemy, and when we go to the door, and open it to see what tho fuss is j nil about, “Bridge” slips In between our , legs, and eats up our supper on the hearth, | before we can fairly get the enclosure bar- 1 rieaded against a possible enemy. He lias never hurt one of our sheep yet, but his j worse wickedness may develop© later. Judge Owens of Gainesville Ga, died in the cars on the Air lino road. He was sitting upright when the conductor pass ed to get tickets. He shook the Judge, hut he made no sign. The conductor supposing him asleep, as his head reposed on his breast, passed on. On reluming it was discovered that the Judge was dead. TilE POVERTY OF THE COUNTRY AND ITS CURE. One of tho elder sources of tho almost universal poverty of this section is tho want of energy, or, in plain English, “la ziness.” Some are unfortunate and sur rounded by circumstances which ail pos sible industry and exertion would not over come, and such as these are objects of sympathy and indulgence, but the great est number of those who are now debt-rid den and In distress have nothing so much to blame us their own want of attention to their avocations, and their unwilling ness to work. No man can expect to succeed, and no man deserves to succeed in any business unless he labors hard and demotes him self faithfully to It. “There is no excel lence without labor,” and there is no suc cess without labor. II- >w can a farmer, a doctor, a lawyer, a merchant or a man in any other calling hop.' u> make either reputation or money without untiring and persistent toil? It is the greatest mistake to suppose pros perity, in any undertaking, possible with out effort. Whoever heard of a physician becoming distinguished, or even indepen dent, who neglected his patients and failed to keep posted on the constant changes and progress in medical science. There is the lawyer who is soon left hopelessly in the rear of his competitors, unices he be stows faithful and untiring attention upon his cases and to tiie study of ills profes sion. What merchant can stand the pres sure of the limes who is not ever attentive to the wants of his customers, and who does not keep advised of thefiuctuAtlons of the market? And thus wo might go through the whole list of occupations. We desire to say a word to our farming friends, and we do it in no spirit of cen sure or unkind ness. We advise you to wi irk, and to make every person on your places, who is able to do so, work. This is the secret of success in tho North, and in the East, in the West—everywhere but in tho South. They have no idlers. Here they ore numerous. If all the availa ble muscle of tho State of Georgia was properly exerted it would not be long be fore any man you met would be good tor a hundred dollars without a mortgage, while now such a man is hard to find. It will require work—hard, disagreeable and universal work—to redoem this coun try from its poverty, but such work would doit, and place us, with our groat natural advantages of soil and climate, beyond tho most favored countries of the earth.—Ogle thorpe Echo. Merntwethek. January 18th, 1883. j Editors Union A Recorder : Messrs.

Caraker of the Baldwin Blues, endorses tho proposition to have the Putnam Riiles and the Blues meet for a friendly contest at tiie target, and a so cial reunion. From tiie Messenger. The passengers for Eatonton reach tiie Milledgeville depot sometimes earlier than the train. It was our case Wednes day. We saw only five little jugs, all in a row, d irected to Eatonton. Mr. Walter Vaughn, the excellent fore man or the Union A Recorder office, was in Eatonton this week. Ho camo up with a good job press for the Messenger office, and bis Ingenuity and experience soon had It in working order. Mr. George W.Wardwellof Eatonton, Ga., for many years one of Eaton ton’s most ac tive and useful business men, died In that place on the morning of tho 20Sli, after a long Illness. TIIE BAD AND WORTHLESS are never imitated or counterfeited. This is especially true of a family medicine, and it is positive proofjthat the remedy imitat* ed is of tho highest value. As soon as it bad been tested and proved by the whole world that Hop Bitters was the purest, and most valuable Jainily inediciue on earth, maoy imitations sprung up aud be gan to steal tho notices in which the press and poonle of the country had expressed the merits of H. B., and iu every way try ing to induce suffering invalids to use their stuff instead, expectiug to make money on the credit and 'good name of II. B. Many others started nostrums put up in similar style to H. lb, with variously devised names in which tho word “Hop" or “Hops” were used in a way to induce people to be lieve they were tlio name as Hop Bitters. All such pretended remedies or cures, no matter what their style or name is, and especially those with tiie word “Hop” or "‘Hops,” In their name or in anyway con nected with them or their name, are imita tions or counterfeits. Beware of them. Touch noaeot tiumi. Usunothingbutgen- tsiuo Hop Bitters, with a bunch or cluster of green Hopson their while laliel. Trust nothing else. Druggists and dealers are warned against dealing in Imitations or counterfeits. TnE Old Staff of the Telegraph A Messenger are accounted lor by “Jack Plane,” (Rev. S. S.

GSAND JURY PRESENTMENTS. We the Grand Jury of Baldwin County, forth©January Term, 1383, beg leave to make the following ;r*>n^rr.l presentments: Wo have examined tho books, dockets, ! records, receipts, accounts, vouchers and I papers or the Ordinary, County Judge, j Treasurer, Clerk of the Superior Court, 1 Sheriff, Justices of the Peace, School Com- i mFsfoner and Tux Collector and find them | all respectively, neatly and correctly kept, j and wc think the countv fortunate in hav- ' ing such competent officers to fill these important posi'ions. We recomm'':id that proper steps be taken for funding the County Bonds at a lower rate of interest, so as to relievo, for the lime being, the c untv from the heavy taxation. f rAaDS AND RRIDUES. The roads, I generally, are in bad order owing to the imaossibilUy of working them duringuii-'/rccent continued rains. Wo recotnmeiVi trial the Commissioners bo required to put/hem in order as soon ns practicable. The bridges Jd? In good order, with th? exception of tip river bridge, somn of tho braces of whiiri arc lriose at the top and should tie recfireif at once. The raft now forming on tijc miortle pier should bo re moved, and rh? ! ridge inside, should be cleaned out «iec a month, r.!! of which wo recommend*) be done. Wo find IBrit there arc no foot bridges over the Double brandies and when thesn branches arc in the least swollen by rains, it is exceedingly difficult even for a man to cross, and as there are young ladies in Midway, attending college in the city, wo earnestly recommend that the City Coun cil immediately put suitable bridges over both these streams. Ia ca.-e tho City Council docs not put tho bridges that are recommended across the Double branches immediately, we recom mend that it bo dono by the Ordinary, at once as they aro sadly needed. We recommend that tho City Council put m good order the embankments on either end of town bridge across Fishing creek. As there are many ro.uls in tho county too narrow for vehicles to pass, by reason of having been encroached upon by fences and other obstacles, we recommend tiiat tiie road Commissioners see to it that tho roads are extended to their proper width. THE POOR HOUSE, We find kept in a cleanly, orderly and economical manner. Wc recommend that an additional room be added to the framed house of tho col ored department. We recommend that Mrs. Alien, tho Matron, and her daughter, tho nurse, bo paid seven and one half dollars per month, each, for adequate services rendered. We recommend tiiat tho three dormito ries, in u?“, the large room, the kitchen and dining room of tho house in the white department, be furnished with at least ono gliiz'-d sash window, and that tiie dormi tories in tho house of the colored depart ment be furnished with two glazed sash windows. We recommend that plank be placed over head in the three dormitories in use, the kitchen and dining room in tho houso of tho white department. THE SCHOOL COMMISSIONER now having S511.S0 surplus on hand, pro poses to pay the teachers for throe months and a half, instead n* three months as heretofore. the j * TL. Wc find the jail neatly kept. We find tho capacity of the jail wholly insufficient, and recommend that tiie two lower rooms bo made perfectly secure for tiie safe keeping of nrv prisoner. These repairs have been recommended by several Grand Juries, but no notico has been taken of their recommendation. We also recommend that shutters tie put to all the eel! windows, thus rendering tho ceils mor- comfortable. We further recommend that two addi tional rooms be added to the Jailor's dwell ing, thereby giving to him and his family, the needed room and comfort. As the business of the Grand Jury has been sadly retarded on account of not hav ing the witnesses promptly on hand, wo recommend that thou? who aro to blamo for lliis delay bo dealt with in such a man ner as to insure prompt attendance of wit nesses in tiie future. These presentments would bo in- coniplete did we not thank ids Honor, Judge Lawson, and Solicitor General Whit field, for their kind and dignified fe aring to us during our sittings, and sincerely trust tiiat the State will always have sucli efficient and courteous gentle men to ad minister tier laws.
