in the Potomae, near the wharf. He drew the
corpse 10 shore, and the coroner was summoned
and held an inquest. No one knew the deceased
or the manner Of his death, althougha mark over
his right eye indicated that he had suffered yio-
isnce, A pair OF eye. giAsses asd q hey were
found in his pocket He had on . black cloth

some respects is considered unsafe. The
sanitary condition is not satisfactory. a
plentiful supply of good wholesome water
is absolutely necessary to the prisoners,
tits thought may be obtained by repairing
the underground cistern in the Court
House yard and procuring the rain from
the roof of the Court House.
The health of the prisoners is good.
The report of the Parish Treasurer dis
closes the fact, that there is little or no
money in his hands and that large
amount Of the obligations due the Teach
ers of the Public Schools remain unpaid.
The criminal business before us was
much less than at some previous sessions
of the Grand Jury, and we are ofthe opin-
ion that the decrease in crime is owing in
great measure to the extraordinary de-
mand from the country for laborers.
The freedmen have accepted the liberal
wages offered by planters and have gener-
ally gone to work; but there is still re-
naming in our midst, number of freed
men, women and children, congregated
in unwholesome cabins, in dense masses
and in filthy condition, demanding the
immediate attention of the proper authori-
ties.
The roads throughout the whole Parish
are represented to be in very bad condi
ton, and the present system of working
and repairing the public roads seems to
be almost totally inapplicable to to the
changed condition of our labor.
We request that the Clerk of this Court
be directed to furnish copy of this Report
to the President Of the Police Jury of this
Parish, and also one copy to the Mayor of
the city of Baton Rouge.
All of which is respectfully submitted.
