The County Jail.
The attempt of the prisoners in
the county jail to escape lasl Tues.. i
day night, was the occasion of call-. J
intr public attention to the unsafe, j
unsightly and unhealthy condition .
of our house of detention. The 1
black hole of Calcutta was not a j
more unwholesome place than the i
Hamilton j iil. A fearful
bility rests upon our county it the
evil is not remedied at once. It is
too loathesome a place to confine
those who has been convicted of
crime. Every instinct of humanity
cries out against its use as a prison
for those whom the law presumes
to be innocent.
>Vo are aware that grand juries
have often called attention to its
filthy condition, but we do not be¬
hove that the jailor is blamable
with this. Any sanitarian must
know that it would require great
and constant labor to keep the
sweat box of the prison from emit
ing its wonted stench, when occu¬
pied by three or four filthy men.
There is no ventilation aud no
light. No cne can enter it and say
it is not a disgrace to humanity to
iBe such a prison.
The blame oi the disgrace does
not attach to any officer of the
county. It is no fault of the Sher¬
iff He lias a careful jailer, who
does what he can io alleviate the
sufferings of the prisoners. The
county commissione s are not to
hlnme, for they need a public sen¬
timent to back them lu such a large
undertaking as the ereclion of a
new jail- The blame lies upon the
people of Harris county. They
disgrace their clirisliacitv and hu¬
manity in not demanding the erec¬
lion of a new building which can
be kept in a decent condition and
in which decent people might be de¬
tained.
It is time we were waking up on
the suhj -ct. Let us hive a lull
discussion ot it. If there is one
apologist, of the present affair we
offer him space in our columns to
to defend the county. As we view
it there is no defence, Wa invito
others to speak on the suhj ct.
Out columns are open to all.
The growth and prosperity of
America are making a profound
nnd doubtless lasting impression
upon rite educated classes of En¬
gland. Of late the rush <.f British
capital into all descriptions of
American investments has been
immense. These are principally
railways, banking, insurance, and
commercial business. But nuw
there are unmistakec indications of
a movement among the higher mid¬
dle class in England that point to
the settlement of regularly organ ¬
ized British communities in the
western and southern states. Ten
nessee, Virginia, and Colorado are
: nst now t [, e .favorites, But the

of Liitisb capital ate being lli\csted

the Eng(l( p tl pe0 p[ e have had enough

minds to plant their feet upon the
solid earth ar.d among civilized
people.

INDEPENDENT DEMOCRATIC NEWSPAPER.
HAMILTON, GA., FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 9,188l.
A Pertinent Query.
An advocate of the bill for a new
capitol at Atlanta, which happily
met with defeat last week, urged
the point tnat there is nearly halt
a million dollars lying idle in the
State treasury. An opponent of
the bill asked the very pertinent
query:—Can’t we reduce taxation
and call on this sum to meet the de¬
fieit?
It is well enough tor the state to
have a reserve iund in her treasury,
that she may not be compelled to
resort to tempo! ary loans to meet
contingencies, but ive should think
half a million dollars loo much for
this purpose. And when we re¬
member that this sum has accumu¬
lated in a few years, that the valua<>
lion of property has increased thirty
million of dollars since tho passage
of the last tax act, while the expen¬
ses oi the stale government have
bee i and are continually diminish¬
ing by cancellation of the bonded
debt, the question of a reduction
of the tax rate seems to demand at¬
tention.
Senator Hill’s Condition.
Atlanta Constitution.
Tite people of Georgia will re¬
gret to learn that the trouble with
Mr. Hill’s tongue has necessitated
his return to Philadelphia. Upon
the spot from which the old cancer
was taken a few clays ago, appeared
a white granulation about the size
of the finger nail. He asked for an
examination of this at the hands of
Dr. \V. F. Westmoreland. Dr.
Westmoreland stated that it was
best for him to return to Philadel¬
phia at once, that Dr. Gross, w ho
hud performed the first operation,
might examine his bis tongue. Mr.
llill left on Wednesday evening,
and on yesterday afternoon Mr. 13.
II. Hill, Jr., received a telegiaiti
slating that another operation was
necessary and would be performed
on Monday. He will leave the oily
Jo-day for Philadelphia, where he
w ill join his fat lief and remain with
him until he is able to leave for
home. The news will sadden tho
hearts of thousands through the
Staidt and all will join m the pray¬
er that tiffs operation may effect a
final cure.
Mr. Davis’ liool: Selling Well.
New York Evening Post.
In regard to a report c -piid a
few days ago from a Southern pa¬
per that the sale of Jiff D 'Vis’ book
‘‘has been slower in the South than
in the North and West,” the Mes¬
srs. Appleton write to u-: “The
sale of Mr. Davis’ ‘Rise and Fall
of Confederate Government’ baa
been remarkably large in tbeSomh,
and much better there than In the
North. Twenty thousand sets
were delivered in the Southern
States vt itiiin twelve weeks from
the day of its publication; and al¬
though the hot weather has tempo¬
rarily poraewhat checked it, we
have a large t umber of subscrip
tionf for delivery early in the au¬
tumn, so that eventually the sale
will greatly exceed the number
mentioned. When it ts remember¬
ed that the work is published in two
larare octavo volumes at the price
of $10, it will be seen that the sale
even to this period ha- been very
in fact, we believe it to be
wholly unprecedented.” ,
Gold Excitement.
Ellijay (Ga.) Courier.]
The Eastern portion of the conn
ly is in almost a fever of excitement
over the di-covery, on tlie planta¬
tion of Spencer Burrell, of a depos¬
it ot gold bearing quartz which is
said surpasses in richness anything
ever discovered in the cour t-'. Tho
ore vein was found b_v Bluford
Bearden and Bob Kin caid at the
head of a branch east and just be
Mr. Burrell’s liou?e. For a
time it has been thought there
was a rich depostte of gold in that
neighborhood, and large premiums
have been offered to any one who
would discover the vein. The gen
tleraen above named having discov
the mine alluded lo'thereby

Atlanta Notes.
Chatbarp, the regular Atlanta cor¬
respondent of the Savannah News,
writes his paper as follows concern¬
ing legislative matters.
The finance committee reports
in favor of turning’ the dog law
question over to a vote of the peo¬
ple, This is the only way it can
ever be settled.
The same committee reports in
favor of a new Code, and recom¬
mends the one now being prepared
by Judge George N. Lester, the
Hon.Walter 13. Hill, and Mr. liow
ell.
It is surprising to sec the House
waste, ns it frequently does, half
an hour over a little matter which
might by judicious action he dispos
ed of in five minutes at tho very
longest. Yet this thing seems hard
to suppress.
In the senate there are twenty
four fanners,, fifteen lawyers, five
doctors, one merchant, one school
teacher, and one steam saw null
proprietor, At this tola! makes
makes forty-seven, and there are
only forty-four Senators, it is ne¬
cessary to slate that three of the
Senators are in two kinds ct bus
mess, and 1 credit each business
with a full representative. Only
one senator—McDaniel-*- was re¬
elected; all the others are now
men.!
I am indebted to lion. W. II.
Harrison, of JStewart, the efficient
and amiable Assistant Clerk, for
the following statement of the bus¬
iness of the house yesterday noon.
Total hills and resolutions introduc¬
ed in Hie house to date: Resolutions
129, bills 1050. Total 117-9.
House bills now on hand for third
reading 139; tor second reading
(favorably reported). 50, for second
reading (adversely reported) 191.
on tlie table 31, will) senate amend¬
ments 5, )n the hands of committees
208. Total 621. This total shows
an immense amount of voik still
on hand to lie completed.
Senate htiis in House for firs! read¬
ing 5, for second reading V, for
third reading 20, resolutions 13, in
hands of committees 18, total 03
Seme of these bills, say 15, are to
appropriate money, and will have
to be considered by the house in
committee ot the whole, and if fa¬
vorably consideied, passed by a
call ot the yeas and nays, all of
w hich will occupy consult ruble
nine. For this reason, as well as
others, not necessary to mention,
I think an ndjontnmcnt on the 29th,
will leave considerable business not
finished.
After Mr Barrow, of Clarke, had
pictured in glowing language the
terrible condition of the present
capitol building, Mr. Jom-s, of Ba..
ker, offered the following preamble
and resolution:
Whereas, the rafters that stipnori
the root of tnis building have lost
their grip, and, whereas, the shoul¬
ders on the [dates are known to be
split off: and, u hereas, cr ac ks of
alarming size are said to exist in the
walls: and, whereas, the gen
etal condition of the building is
manifestly such as greatly to en¬
danger the lives and limbs of mem¬
therefore bo it
“Resolved, The Senate concur¬
ring, that this Genral Assembly do
now adjourn sine die.”
Of course this was tiealed ns a
yet it had no little to do with
defeating tne bill for a new capitol
If a new one is commenced at once,
the old one must of necessity be
used for at least five years. Mr.
Barrow’s woeful account of its
condition was, therefore, inappro¬
priate.
We learn from the Oo’umbas

Terriblle Indian Massacre.
Washington, S pte’«ber 3.—The
following telegram was received at
the War Department this morning
by Acting Adjutant General Mo
Keevur, trora Gen. McDowell, dal*
d September 2:
“The following was received
from the commanding General id
tlie Department of Arizona, dated
to.day; Tiffany telegraphs a re¬
port from ihe sub agency that an
Indian named Mickey brought.word
that a number of chiefs m o coming
in with their bands, hut that Pedro,
wi'h all Ins band and others, are on
the war path; that Carr’s command,
including himself and other officers
and sixt y-four enlisted men, were
killed day before yesterday; also
that Pedro had killed seven or eight
men, including an expressman, be¬
tween Apache and Thomas. We
have no word from Apache, The
line is down and tho wire cut. Bid¬
dle wits at work yestoiday and last
night getting troops across the Gila
with difficulty, pushing for Apache.”
A di spatth received from Gen\.
oral Wilcox Uii.s morning says that
he has received news that a few
of G neral Carr’s command escaped
at Cubic creek, which is forty miles
west of Fort Apache. Those who
escaped are lighting their way to
Fort Apache, but their Miccoss is
doubtful. Piedro’s band nil nuked
Fort Apache, but the c -mniunder
of the department thinks that lie
mu-'t have been repulsed.
Sm Francisco, September 5.—A
dispatch from Tucson, Arizona,
says: Gen. Carr was in command of
the Garrison of Fort Apache, con
Mstmg of two companies of iho sixth
cavalry and one of infantry. After
leaving sufficient to protect tlus puli
lie property at Apache he had but
G3 enh-ted men, of the sixth caval¬
ry and five officers. A medicine
man, who was at the bottom of the
trouble, had been for some weeks
past predicting to the White moun¬
tain Indian that when corn was
ripe he would raise all their dead
chiefs 'and the - whiles would he
driven out of their country. TIiih
was sufficient to warrant the cot:
elusion ihat preparations wore be¬
ing made by site tribe to break out
as soon as they had gathered tin-if
harvests. Gen. Carr was ordered
to im -t the medicine man. lie
doubted his ability to do so with so
small a force againt the whole
tribe, who had been worked up to
i he belief that I heir medicine man
would raise up their dead chiefs.
The circumstances attending the
massacre were such that it could
hardly have been avoided. An
outbreak had been feared, and for
the last two weeks in tlio Apache
country settlers have been predict¬
ing trouble. There are not less
than ten thousand Indians on Iho
San Carlos reservation and fully as
many in the Navajo tribe which is
loot ted from GO to 100 miles north
of the country of iho White Moun¬
tain tithe, A large number of
young bucks of both ilic San Carlos
and Navajo tribes have been visit¬
ing White Mountains tec-fitly and
i>, is Believed they were engaged in
the fight. It is reported by rn..
rnoi s that the fight con inurd all
day oi the 30h. Every hill and
cannon was swarming with Imli
ans.
A disnutcb from Gen. Carr, giv¬
ing nil account of the attempted
massacre, shows that the loss «'.‘ih
not as severe as first stated, ile
gives the following account to Gen
eral Mel) iwell. “Pursuant to or¬
ders from the commanding general,
