He has neglected to pay promptly
necessary expenses consequent upe
last illness of the deceased as sool
ficient funds were realized from til
tates ofsych deceased persons as requS
by the Statute.
The Grand Jury find that in the set-
tlement with the sureties Of N. T. Pr,
ney, late Public Administrators there has
been collected from them $3,4 ,472 Is,
which monies have remained in his hands
from nine to thirteen months, and moth
ing having been paid to the heirs enti-
tied to receive it, the only paymen,
Ibeing one Of $57S, to the District At
torney.
They would recommend to the pro.
per authority the abolition of the office
of Public Administrator, and that the du.
ties now pertaining to the same be per.
formed by administrators to be approved
by the Probate Judge.
The Grand jury have faithfully and
with perseverance, vainly endeavoured to
ascertain the parties, whether leaders,
aiders, or abettors, in the hanging of the
man Morgan at or near Columbia.
This defiant act against the laws of
our country, laws made by the people
themselves, laws under which every man
lives and moves, and should have him
self and property protected, was commit
ted in open day, in the presence of pro-
badly a thousand persons, yet no one
can be found that can or will identify
any one engaged in the unlawful trans
action, the organization was complete,
their actions preconcerted, and executed
in msnner worthy of better cause.
No one was more law abiding citizen
than the excellent man, whose death
was attempted tobe avenged, none would
certainly (if living) have been found
more detirminedly to oppose such viol-
alton of law.
They recommend to the next Grand
Jury to pursue the enquiry which may
eventually lead to the detection and con-
viction of the parties.

THE AMATEuRs.-The performance
at the Theater, on Saturday evening last
was most assuredly, the best and mos'
interesting that they ever gave since
their organization, and ref ects credit on
all concerned for their industry and at
tention in making themselves so perfect
in their several parts. The house was
well filed, and the performance much
applauded. At the conclusion of the
first piece, the Drama of the ."Golden
Farmer, Miss Sweet and Mr.. c. 8.
Rouse, were called in front Of tho cur
tain as compliment from the audience,
for the meritorous manner in which they
had played their parts which they we'll
deserved, their performance would have
done credit to actors Of much greater
fame. Our friend Spiers is also entitled
to considerable credit for his excellent
personation of the character of Jenny
Twitcher, he kept the audience in q
perfect roar of laughter by his drollery
In thus mentioning those actors in partic-
ular, we do not infer that the other char
acters were not we'll played, each did
we'll, but those parties excelled. There
was the usual singing and dancing the
Duet by Miss Sweet and Master Levy,
took everyone by surprise as no one ex-
pected to hear it so well executed. The
evenings performance concluded with
the comedy Of" Perfection, or the Maid
of Munster, which was played as well
as any company in the State could play
it. They will introduce the laughable
comedy of '' Young New York, - on

siN years of age. sitting with his father and
mother, and engaged in the attempt to loose
the kot in tho string that bound small parcel
The knot had become we'll compact ted, and the
child tiny fingers seemed to make no impress
sion thereon. The patient earnestness of the
little fellow was contrasted with the apparent
Indifference of his parents, who lOJk I'd on,
but made no attempt to assist him. At last
the gentleman, whose Sympathies with chill
drcn were wuTm, could bear the sight no
longer; 20, partly to help the child, and partly
to- rebuke the parents, he took out his knife.
and, handing it to the boy, said:
Here, my little fellow, try the virtue of a
sharp blade You can't unite the knot
Something to his surprise, the knife was not
taken; but, instead, the child answered with n
smile:
Please. sir. father don't allow me TO say
can't, L belong tO the Try Company
''Indeed,' said the gentleman. as he drew
back his hand Il never heard Of that com

And the child turned with an expression Of
loving confidence in his face. toward his father
He's worthy member of that excellent a.

speaking to the gentleman, and smiling in O
pleasant way.
