AN ESCAPE AND RECOVERY OF
A CONVICT.
The most ingenious divicc hitherto re
ported to, to effect a/i escape from our Pen
tentiary, that has come to our knowledge,
was practiced by a convict of rather dull
and ordinary understanding, last week, by
the name of Kambo, who had been comniitt
j[ed from Bibb county. Having, it appears,
Han extra suit of clothes in liiscell, he stuffed
jthem and otherwise made a pretty complete
! image of himself—which he placed with the
place looking out through the grating of tire
window, and the back to the cell door. It

locked up, and as such, frequently recogni-

Not having scaled the walls till just before
day, being observed, but not known at the

llttpon his track, and lie was relodged again
(in prison before night. For this offence,
‘underour code of laws, he now subjects
hirnself to have four years added to his
lofser7itude. —Southern Recorder.
