attempts TO escape Lately by mans Of underground
'tunnes" These tunnels about four feet 0gh and
two and half feet Wide the sides and roof perfectly
lined with boards and planks The total length of the
main tunnel was about seventy6vs feet. There we're
four branches used for storing away the dirt, hiding
tools ID clothea, and in one was q nice bed of hay
where the tired vorkpen could rest. One Of these
branches large enough 70 accommodate the man
who sawed and fitted the plank so that all the work
could be done underground avoid noise and TO defy

scheme the prisoners attempted to tIcs the guard but
were bea on back several receiving serious wounds.

A CoxPLAn7.-A correspondent Of the Wilmington
journal complains Of the following grievances, which
will probably cause the people TO suffer:
The Government pays the farmer So per busbel for
wheat the farmers will not in this State sell TO outside
parties for less than $40 rer bushe and that pnce
aid the Government lmpresses the wheat This econ
Of the Government has caused the only -four mil In this
place TO stop work.
The second grievance is the monopoly by the Govern.
ment of the railroad transportation causing peo
pe TO lose heavily by the manufacture OF salt, which
will soon break up that business and eau short sup
