SAD AocIDENT.-On Wednesday evening
last, young lad named Ingden was badly
scalded by his mother. 1t seems that as he
was about entering the house, at the corner

granted, and Keefer entered into bonds for

A man named John Pruthto was on trial

so changed that the present Duke of Bucking-

his son, the Marquis of Ohandos (who visited
this country last summerl would be Prince

COUNTY MATTERs.-Before the passage of
the Ferguson Bill the Sheriff of the county
bad entire control of the jail, appointed all
the officers connected with il, and furnished
the food for the sustenance of the prisoners
but by that act the County Commissioners
were authorized TO appoint superintendent,
TO purchase provisions for the prisoners and
perform some other duties connected there
with. Accordingly, on the lst Of January,
1861, they appointed Mr.. Shockley to that
place. The two officials, being of opposite
politics, do not appear to work together har-
mopiously, and yesterday the Sheriff sent
the following communication to the County
Commissioners, which was laid over for fur
ther consideration:
"commi'sioners of HamitiOn County:
"GENTLEMEK-It becomes my duty to Of
hcially address you upon a matter of much
importance to the county, and deeply con-
cerning myself as the custodian of the pris-
oners of the county.
by virtue of an act of the Legislature,
passed March 16, l960 the Commissioners,
on the first Monday of January, 1861, as
sumed the duty of providing for the susie
nance Of the prisoners confined in the County
Jail.
by reason of the authority with which I
am clothed as Sheriff, and in accordance
with the command of law, appointed dep
uties Of the Sheriff, for the special charge of
the County Jail.
For more than a month this new proce-
dure has been operated, and sufficiently tried
to oconvince me thatit is impossible for the two
authorities now in charge of the Jail to work
safely and harmoniously together. Ny in
structions to the jailer have been of nature
to facilitate, all in his power, the performance
OF the duties required of the Jail Commits
sary, but in the present construction of the
County Jail there is imposed upon me too
great responsibility in the safe. keeping of
the prisoners, to permit this matter to con-
tinue longer without calling your official at
tention TO it.
"With all the care and circumspection
have been able to exercise, am in continual
and well-grounded fears that escapes will
occur, and the subordination of the pris-
oners seriously interfered with. l am we'll
satisfied that until the new jail is completed
and occupied-with its improved construc-
tion-it will be to the interest of the county
that the duties of feeding and the safe keep
ing of the prisoners should be lodged in the
hands of one person.
when properly. constructed prison is
occupied-which will be in @ few months,
am informed-it will then become the DUTY
of the proper Court to make such rules for
the government of the jail as defining the
authority and duty of each party, and hold
ing each to a strict accountability for the
performance of their separate duties.
by giving your early attention to the
matter contained in this communication,
you will much oblige
Yours very respectfully,
JOHN B. ARMSTRONG,
Sheriff Of Hamilton County"
