The following is the report Of the grand jury, sum
moned at the late session of the district court for the
parish of Caddo:
To the honorable JAMES L WEEMs-
We, the undersigned, members of the grand jury,
beg leave to make the following report:
We visited what was known, formerly, as the parish
JAIL to examine its condition. the number OF prisoners
confined, and the manner OF their treatment. We
found that the Jail had been converted into military
prison, and at present the parish of Caddo has no
prison. We received corteonsly by the officers
in command of the JAIL but they promptly refused to
permit us to examine the prison. for the reason that
they regard military prison, and entirely under
their control We regret particularly at this time,
that the military should not have found some other
place besides the parish prison conine their prison
ers; and would say, with all due respect the officers
in command at Shreveport that with Old-iashon-
ed notions, guard house is the proper place for
military prisoners. But we are powerless, we would
recommend to the police jury OF our parish, before
the October term oil our court, to prepare some suita
BILE place where persons arrested may be conincd-
Oar citizens more in need of Il rigid en-

number Of slaves have recently been set free and are

CIVIC VS.. MLTARY.-Gen. Slocomb commanding
the district of Mississippi has issued order to offset
order of Gov. Sharkey calling orsvolunteer militia
The order reads as follows:
The provisional governor has thought proper, with
out consultation with the department commander or
with any other officer of the United States on duty
here, to organise and arm a force in every county,
urging the young men of the State who have so dis
tngushed themselves for galIany to report promptly
to his call.
It is therefore ordered that district commanders give
notice at once to all persons within their respective
districts, that no military organisation except those
under the control of the United States authorities will
be permitted within their respective commands, and
that if any attempt is made to organise after such
notice, those engaged in it will be arrested
