Grand Jury Report-TRnd Municipality Jail
and Workhouse usual term report Of the
Grand Jury, to the Judge of the First District
Court. was presented yesterday, by Thomas E.
Adams, foreman. 1t referred, in the first place, to
the Jail or lookup of the Third Municipality,
which had been visited by them, in which it says
they found four prisoners, two men and two goats.
They think the Jail more adapted for the reception
Of the latter than the former-it being filed with
vermin! They admit that Recorder Seuzeneau
has done' every thing in his power to abate the
nuisance. for such the old jill of the Third Mu.
nicipali'y is represented. The work.house of the
municipality is undergoing speedy demolition.
