There was a severe frost this morning, and early risers report ice in vairous places. Railroad from Augusta to Chester. The Edgefield Advertiser, in a long ar ticle in reference to Augusta, her trade, interests, enterprises, &c., thus alludes to a railroad via Edgefield to Chester : A single other road though ought to be built, to insure the city’s prosperity. We mean one to lead out through the heart of Edgefield and Newberry dis | tricts on the South Carolina side, in the ; direction of Winnsboro’ or Chester. — j Sucli a road would effectually secure to j Augusta almost the entire trade of Edge- j field and Newberry, and also of Abbe- i viile, Anderson, Lichens, Greenville, j Laurens, Union and Spartanburg dis tricts ; and it would probably also draw j a large portion of the trade of Fair-; field, York, and other Northern districts j of our State. We say, if the people of Augusta desire to clinch the nail of their prosperity, this is the road for them to build. They would also receive by its instrumentality, their full proportion of any trade that may hereafter be brought on by the Kabun Gap route; and quite as effectually too as they could have done by the lately contemplated road up the Savannah Valley. The men of Augusta are both sagacious and bold in their enterprises, and it will be a mat ter of surprise if they continue much longer to overlook the advantages with in their grasp which we have barely in-> dicatcd. . , ! Some link of connection should be j made, and made early with the liabun Gap Road ; and we trust our enterpris- j ing neighbor will keep the ball in mo- j tion, until it is accomplished. The An- j gusts papers will heartily co opciate in j the good, work and if the money can be i raised, the work is done. Scriptural Enigma. ▼ lam composed of twenty three let- j ters— My 4, 19, 23, 10, 15, 1, was one of the prophets. My 0, 10, 10, 13, 7, wasoneof Christ's j disciples. j My 13, 21, 9, 5- 0, is one of the Books j of the New Testament. My C, 3, 10, 5,2,1, is one of the Books of the Old Testament. My 3,7, 8, C, was one of the proph- i ets. My 6,8, 4,8, 16, was an ancient city j destroyed by tire for its wickedness. My 17, 22, 11,12, 10, 5, G, 17, 10, 1, | 3,14, 15, was Governor of Judea. My 17, 3,1, 21, 0, 20, 10, 7, 21, is a country famous as being the place where | Christ lived. My whole is a verse witli a petition, to be found in the New Testament. Pox. f PRESE NTMENTS w Ok Grand Jury Richmond County, j Superior Court, November Term, 1858.-- ] We, the Grand Jury chosen and sworn : for the first week of the present Term j of the Superior Court, report, for the | information of our fellow-citizens, that J we have given the matters of public in- j tere.it with which we have been charged j the attention and investigation that our limited time would permit. Clerk's Office. —The office of the | Clerk of the Superior and Inferor Courts, j we find in the same admirable condi tion so worthily commended by former Juries. We reiterate the necessity so frequently urged, (and we cannot pass j without saying, so entirely disregarded by the authorities) of having several | old hooks of inportant records re-bound —books, too, in almost daily use. Ordinary's Office.— -We find the books of the Ordinary kept in a neat j and creditable manner, and the valuable ! documents entrusted to his care, ar- j ranged systematically, convenient for j reference. In this connection, we would j ■ also repeat the recommendation of for-I mer Grand Juries—“that a safe place be provided for these documents against! their destruction by fire. The duties of the Clerk of the Supe- I rior and Inferior Courts and Ordinary of Richmond county, are onerous, and the j compensation they receive, we believe, to be insufficient' We therefore, call the attention of our Senator and Repre sentatives in the Legislature, to this matter, with the hope that they will use their efforts in having the “Fee 1 Bill ” so amended as that they may re- j ceive a compensation adequate to the duties they have to perform. Poor House. —The Poor House, we find in a very filthy condition, and al most entirely devoid of the most com mon necessities—there being scarcely any such articles as chairs, tables, plates, knives, forks, or spoons, among the in mates. Their clothing is also insuffi cient, and the building disgustingly filthy. We recommend the discharge of Peter Williams and George Downs, they being able-bodied and healthy men, and the admission of Kelt Burch, who is a more worthy subject, aitho’ we doubt its being on act of charity to place any one in such uncomfortable , quarters, for we are of the opinion this i Poor House had better he dispensed , with than kept as at present. We ear nestly recommend an entire change of the system (if it may be so called,) and . the removal of its location to some point more accessible, so that it could . he ofrener inspected by the proper au thorities. We recommend the iinmedi- [ ate discharge of the present Keeper. Jail, —We are happy to report that in the management of the Jail we find ! much to praise and nothing to condemn. We would recommend that immediate steps be taken to have the building i properiy warmed, believing that the p health and comfort of those having the j misfortune to occupy it wiil be promo- j ted thereby. Phere are now in confine meat, nineteen white persons and six teen blacks. We would recommend i and urge upon the proper authorities, ] that provision be made for the employ- 1 ment of negroes and white persons, ‘ confined for crime, in some kind of manual labor. Poor School System.— Since the report of the Grand Jury of the May Term of the Court, we find neither the fund or j ■ list of children entitled to tiie benefit I of this fund, has been received by the Ordinary—January of each year being; the time for the return to be made. In l the investigation of this system, upon! its present basis, we find it defective in many particulars. To remedy them will require Legislative action. It is defective in our judgment, in the fol lowing particulars : Ist. Anyone can become a Teacher in one of these Schools, and no qncs tion is asked as to his capacity, or his morality. 2d. The compensation is so small, no competent Teacher would undertake it, ami 3d. The manner in which the chil clren are taught, and the want of prop er books. The true policy of a P.cpublicau gov-; eminent, isto give ail an equal chance to share in the advantages of an Eng lise educatim, that they may by quali fied to become good and useful citizens, leaving merit to make its own way to dlsiiction. In the absence of these atl -1 vantages, we find ignorance, pauperism land crime to increase. We earnestly j desire the greatest amount of good should result, from the funds set apart for the education of the poor, and do ! most respectfully urge upon our pres | cut Legislature the passing of such acts, as will result in the establishment of Normal Schools for the education of j Teachers, and only such as could pass |an examination be allowed to teach, and receive their pay from the fund—- by presenting a certificate from a Board | of Examiners of their qualification to instruct. If teachers could have the benefit of Normal Schools, uniformity of teaching, of discipline and of books, would be attained. In the absence of 1 Normal Schools, a paid Board of Exam- j iners, of the qualification of teachers, j we regard essential to any great success or good resulting from our fund to sup- \ port our Poor Schools. We also recommend a change in the j name from “Poor Schools” to Freel ! Schools. License System. —We find upon an ex i animation, the list of persons licensed | to sell spirituous liquors in the county I I is small, compared with the whole nnm- j i her whom we have good reason to he- j jlieve habitually sell liquors. Want of j I time lias prevented the Jury from going I into a thorough innestigation of this j matter. The evasions of the law are i many, and the difficulty of proving! (illegal sale of spirits, so as to convict the transgressor, is well kown. It I therefore behooves every good citizen, ! j every lover of good order and morality, ! j all who have the welfare of society at (heart, to lend a helping hand, diligently I and fearlessly to ferret out and bring to I j punishment every offender, and thus I lessen poverty and crime in our land, (and save our slaves from drunkenness, I j and thieving to gratify the appetite for j strong drink. Patrol Duty. —We find upon diligent > j inquiry that the laws on th : s subject — I j with perhaps one or two neighborhoods , I excepted— are xdtad letter in our county, j and Patrol duty lias ceased to be per- j I formed at all. As a consequence, our! citizens suffer pecuniary loss continual ly, and our slave population is becom j ing more vicious and demoralised, as j well as less valuable, on account of : ■ unsteady and vagahond habits thereby I engendered. We would respectfully - | call the attention of our Legislature to j sliis subject, and urge amendment to ; the present laws, (if needes) or that ; some law be enacted by which the pre-1 tent laws may be made of force and leffcetiu remedying the evil of its neg- I lect. ! Roads and Bridges.— For want of i time we can but partially report the j condition of Roads and Bridges. We, however, recommend, as needing repair ! the bridge on Washington Road, near | Marshal's lane, McDade’s bridges on j Waynesboro’Road, and several small | bridges on the Milledgeville Road. On | the last named road there are several |small bridges wanted, and the road is in need of general repairs. A ditch j should be dug along the West side of the j Georgia Railroad from South boundary ] street to Harper’s road to convey off the \ rain watar. ! This matter lias been brought to the ; notice of the County before ami the pro- j ! per authorities should compel the ma i king of such ditch without delay. We j ! leave the further consideration of Roads and Bridges to the Grand Jury. Miscellaneous.— We find upon exam- j ! nation that there are seven huts finish ed, and others in ttie process of erection i just outside the corporate limits, on the \ road leading to Harrisonville, inhabited by slaves living apart from the owners. We furthermore learn a portion of one hut is rented to a white woman, land looks, to all intents and purposes,as ! though liquor is vended. We think this row of huts a nuisance, and a grow ! ing evil, a common depot of stolen pro perty, and should not be allowed by the proper authorities to exist. We would call the attention of the; corporate authorities of the City of Au-! gusta, to the frequent cruel treatment l of animals, especially dray horses, in ; the city, and earnestly request the or-1 Idinance upon this subject be enforced. In a Clinical Lectuie by Dr. Dugas, in January last,he suggests the establish ment of an Asylum for Inebriates. The j Jury have given this subject some at tention, and recommend that the initia five steps be taken to carry the sugges-1 tion into effect. We present, as not being in a condi tion corresponding with the other part i of this building, the Grand Jury room, ; and suggest a thorough cleaning, and a j covering for the floor instead of the ! present partial one. And we further ; recommend, a renovating of the present j furniture of the room. And we also j suggest that cushions to chairs in the i Court room would make them more comfortable. In taking leave of His Honor Judge ! Holt, and Attorney General MoLaws, it j affords us much pleasure to bear our testimony to their uniform kindness and courtesey to our body, and to their fidelity and ability in the discharge of their duties. All of which is respectfully subrnit | tod. David R. Wright, Foreman. I Victor LaTaste, Charles Pwelle, i William I'. Carmichael, George H. Crump, ; Charles Pemple, Thomas E.
