County Jail.
TERRITORY OF WASHINGTON,
County OF WAIIA WAIIA

IEhhIIOh4 Ot w ASHlNGION,
COUNTY OF WALLA WALLA.
We, the Grand Jury, at the regular term of the
U S. District Court for the said district, holden
the 18th day of October, A D. 1868, being charged
by the said Court inquire into the condition of the
County Jail, report as follows:
That after an examination of said jail, find it
totally insecure for the safe keeping Of prisoners in
asmuch aslt is built entirely Of wood that it is ao
cessible (without hindrance) to any outside party
that with any tool for cutting wood an open
ing sufficiently large for the escape of prisoners
be made in very few minutes; that account of
the Jail being lmperecty ventilated it is often nee
essary for the windows to be left open through the
night and through these apertures such tools can
readily be passed to prisoners from the outside as
would enable them easily to effect their escape
and as a remedy, we would recommend that one cell
of dimensions by IA feet and feet high be bHit of
boiler slab irOn and that it be placed in said Jail in
which persons committed for felOniOus crimes may
be kept. We further recommend that another set Of
iron bars be placed across the windows uansversey
to those there, the inner side of the JAIL in
order that large tools may not be passed to the prs
oners. We further recommend that '' privy' be
built on the outside of said JAIL to receive the filth
which is now thrown indiscriminately around the
Jail.
All Of which we, the Grand Jury, respectfully
submit JOHN w. McGHEE, Foreman.

An Addendum to Public Schools"

AN AQueuQuQ TO KuDuc OcnCOlS.
Your correspondent read with care and
satisfaction the suggestions of J. E. Wood,
ESQ.,, on the subject of "The Public Schools
of Wala Wala county," published in the
Statesman" of the oath instant. His re-
marks appear to me to be practical, judicious
and sensible
Yielding to no citizen, myself, in appreci-
alton of our public school system, desire
to suggest that more attention be hereafter
paid to the qualifications of teachers than
seems to have obtained in some instances in
the past. 1t has been no uncommon thing
for persons to apply for the positions Of
teachers, who could not spell properly, and
as to grammatical correctness, they evinced
total ignorance of the art of properly
forming a correct sentence. This fault can
easily be remedied in the future by GEM
ploying competent teachers and paying them
well, as the Superintendent suggests.
A second error, not unusual in many
schools, is the habit which some teachers
give their pupils of dra1oliag words, placing
accent on the wrong syllable, chirping like
bird, and running one portion of a sentence
into another.
Our public schools are the boast of the
country, and every care should be taken in
order that the rising generation NAV re-

CoMMENDABLE.-Sinc the burning of
town of Lawrence in Kansas, by Quantrell
and his band of raidsters. the people there
it seems have thought Of little else than
having revenge for the outrages committed.
They purposed to arm bodies of men, march
into Missouri and deal death and destruc-
ton npon their supposed enemies over the
border. Schofeld, of the Missouri depart
ment, learning the intention of the people
of Kansas to be preparing for raids, told
them that such an indiscriminate warfare
could not be permitted in his Department;
that in such warfare the innocent would
be as apt to suffer as the guilty, and there
was no telling where such a course would
end, if inaugurated. 1t would be retaliation
upon retaliation; but he would use all le-
gitimate means at his command to bring the
Quantrell band topunishment. This should
have satisfied the people of Kansas, but it
did not; they clamored, in conjunction with
the "Charcoap' party Of Missouri for Scho-
fields removal and the appointment of a
Radical in his stead Mr. Lincoln, after
reviewing the whole matter, approves of
Schofeld's course and says he will not be
removed However, Kansas will be in a
separate Department, and perhaps the peo-
pie there will become paeifed with a new
military commander over them. The Pres
ident has certainly acted wisely in this in

The importance of the triumph cannot be
overestimated, for the rebels had resolved to
place themselves between the capital and the

the result would be difficult to forsee The
artillery firing all night was the most terrific,
and from the hills of Centreville was wit

Chattanooga correspondent confirms the re-

casloned by the refusal OF the Georgia militia
to remain longer in active service. They rep
resented that they had volunteered only to
drive the Federals out of their own State
Bragg refused to grant them permission to
return home, and they stacked arms. Long
streets men were ordered into a line and dis
charged several volleys at the men, 60 of
whom were killed, and 200 badly wounded.
In addition to this affair, the arrest of Gen.
Polk had created considerable bad feeling in

coming into our lines every day.

with a slight hyperboe, suggests the idea
that "Old Sol' has been in close converse

early on Monday morning. The country
folks focked into the city, taking advantage
Of the propitious weather to do their shop
ping and transact other details Of business.
Monday closed Tuesday came and retired,
succeeded by eventful WedneSday, a period
to which many anxious minds had long look
ed forward because then were the "Races"
to commence. Main street presented gay
animated appearance. Smack sounded the,

were called into requisition, and away men

THE WASHINGTON STATESMAN
sATURDAY MORNING, OCT. 81, 1868.

ENsMALIMENT. We this week present our read
ers with the STATESMAN upon sheet one size smaller
than that heretofore used. We do this for reasons
which we believe are the best that could be adduced
simply, that our limited subscrpti on list does not
Justify" US in printing upon so large sheet
Readers will observe, however that in our cen
smalment'' we have not decreased the amount of
reading matter We have laid aside the large type
heretofore used the fourth page and substituted
smaller size, which will more than make up for the
loss in space. In addition to this have procured
new type, which, we think materially improves the
mechanical appearance of the paper. The saving to
in the matter Of paper alone the price of which
to be still che rise) amounts to cOnsidera
blesum in the course of a year ; therefore, as we
save something and the reader loses nothing-eX-
cept the sight of few non-paying advertisements
we have to expect that will find cause to
object to the arrangement. 1t is resorteG to by
both as matter of economy and cOnveniepce-hav-
ing first fully demonstrated that it will not pay to
hire extra help in printing larger amount Of read
ing matter than we have heretofore given, and that
expending money in the purchase of large paper on
which to display non-paying advertisements g for
glory" is no glory at all. Devoting our whole time
and energies, heretofore, to the the mechanical
and editorial departments of the paper, we promise
thatt shall continue, permanent institution, and
hope to render it especially welcome visitor to
the citizens of our own county, upon whom we must
mainly depend for support.

were leaving here a week ago. They are
well satisfied to winter here. There is plen-
ty of ground that will pay we'll enough in
this vicinity to support population of So

on the Snake River, but it is not credited
by the parties that are now coming back
from there. Our county officers have re-
Gently compelled those Salt Lake teams and
Web-foot wagons to pay license of $50 for
peddling their produce in the street. Serve
them right.
1t would have done your American heart
good to have seen the "string of onion"
that proudly paraded here with emblazoned
banners, Haunting transparencies, pine knot
torches and bands of music occasionally
stopping to be addressed by Gov. Wallace
and other good Union men. The affair was
well got up and by actual count there was a
few over 600 men in the procession and ev-
erything passed off quietly without any dis
turbance from the Copperheads. 1t is a
perfectly safe bet to go 2 to one on Wallace s
carrying this county by very handsome
majority.
Business is as dull as ever. Large guam
titles of produce are now being received
from Salt Lake, and without any doubt this
market will be supplied with grain and flour
entirely from there after this season. Freights
are even now only to Sc. per h., and in
the spring goods can and will be brought
here as low as and SC, which reckon will
cause the attention of the Webfoot farmers
to be turned to the mining region recently
discovered in their own country on the San
tam. TRAIL.
