The Need OF n PenitentIary.


The Point Pleasant Register, referring
to the recent Jail delivery here, says: !.
At the rate Mt which rogues have lnte-
ly made good their escape from the
Ohio county Jail, il Will soon become
vacant. What encouragement 10 COM
tinne TO arrest, try and convict law
breakers. We wIll not say there Is
gross negligence, but we know there
must be something wrong that the au-
thorities should rectity immedlately.
Surely. the community are endangered
and annoyed enough by the bands OF
despcradoes already swarming through
the country without reinforcing them
by the hardened, ndroit, convicted and
sentenced cOnVicts OF our IroHtd DC pen
itentiary. g Sss,I5s.tf 81 $50 ..s'..1.i
All this Is in thu main very true and
Just. The expression, however, Some
thing wrong that the authorities should
rectify immediatelyr' might be Inndo TO
bear meaning which we, suppose il,
was not intended to convey, Tho only
..authorities" who can reetiiy this
wrong are tho Legislature. The very
best is done that can be. done 70 keep
the tcOnyicts safely where the Legisld-
ture provided they shall be kept. But
the Ohio county jail Is not equal to the
demands OF a State prison. It Is not
secure enough and cannot be made so
without heavy expenditures which have
not as yet been authorized. The proper
remedy for the present state OF things
is to build a penitentiary. This cannot
be done Immediately. But the sooner
IT is begun the sooner it will be hnisll=
ed: and 1t never will be finished until
it is begun. - 52eilc 1if z {

Sale Day.

Monday last va. salo day-bcsides New loar'
.day-aud our town was literally thronged witf
freedmen and frcedwomen. I'll aaid they reu-
dezvousca here with tho expectation OF hearing
speech from Some officer or agent Of tho o'ferh-
mont. No such speech took place ne such speech
was to have taken place. We hear that at other
places in our State, orders have boon Issued and
published, enapating from the Freedmen' bn-
resu, that all freedmen found unemployed and
without q situation on the 18th of January, shall
bo .skon up as ragrants, and put to hard labor
No such order has been issued in Edseacd The
negroes with whom we couversed on Monday,
seemed still unwilling tcenter into contracts-e1-
cept for mort ridiculously exorbiiant wages. Thi'
will not continue; very ehortly indeed, they viii
bccsme'ss moderate in thoir demands as The nre
now iamoderate. Very rapidly arc they begin
ming to realize and express the truth that :beir
former owncrs-and not thO Yankccs-aro their
only frieuds. The New Yoar las come, and thoJ
must now perforcs give up their subbornly cher
ished idoa of receiving lands, &c, &e, ei'Se from
the United States Government or from New Eng

The Currency.

Tho National intclligencer, Of tho 9Th, saws the
fear Of anything like sudden contraction is dis
,ipated. It will necessarily boa slow AID eau
tious process whereby tho volume Of currency,
which, in July next, will DO between seven ana
eight huHlrod millions, can be sensibly reduced,
to say nothing of resumption Of ,peeio pay
mcnto. The evil apprehsndod from contraction
is shown by the Secretary to bo imaginary. A
reduction Of tho eurreneywill not diminish its
supply for tho; wants of legitimate business,
while further expansion Of it would, as all past
experience proves, render it scsreer, enhance
pricos, augment the rate Of interest, dsmoralizo
industry, and paralyso production. The secrsta-
ry anticipatesa further rise of prices-a necessa:
ry consequence Of imitation. If thoy are new in
excess of tho rates Of Juno,. IsG4,fHhen gold vas
$50, they may rise twenty or thirty por cent. by
next July. Every one knows that prices arc nd.
yanciug, and will continue to advance till either
collipso shall ensuo or the work of;contsaeti ton
be earnestly and practically commenced. :. - =,

Fearful State of Affairs in Augusta.

Fearful State Of Affairs in Augusta.
Murder, robbery, and crime generally, seem to
be holding high carnival in our neishbOsing city
of Augusta. Scarcely do VIC ever pick up an
Augusta paper which docs not contain an account
of scme horrible Iifair lately perpctfated,-pot
little disturbance, or an unimportapt thsf', but
bold and heinous outrage. Tho Con'titstionatst
o! Wednesday last, rocites no less than three OF
these shoe king occurrepees. In one case, Mr..
EDGAR CAnniculEL, eue ofthe most respectable
young gentleman of Augusts. vas fsindishly mur-
dared in his store, near the city, and the storo
thoroughly and completely pillaged. This took
place at night and after Mr.. c. had retired to bed
In aaothor case, q meb of negroes and negro
soldiers, armed and irfariatod bescigcd the house
Of Mr.. Jas. REYNOLDS, and, had 1t not beea for
the timely arrival of body of police, would bsve
destroyed tho house and sacrificed tho unoffend-
ing insnatcs.
In still another case, printing oaiee was en-
tered and partly robbed. Very shortly before
those ovppts, tho houso of Mr.. SToyALL was 'sn-
tered early in the evening, and largo quantity of
very valuable silver stolen. colorsd boy who
attempted to stop the robbers, was shot and killed.
Breaking into and robbins stores is literally an
almost nightly occurrence.
Why and wherefore crime prevails so glaring-
ly in Augusta, aud why and wherefore more sum
mary Rsssures arc not taken to Suppress it, m'
are at loss to say. We aro inclined, however
t, attribute this intense dsmOralisat,os to the
presence of negro troops. Wherever thOy sre'
that place is deeply and damnsby accurssd. Tho
contagion Of their irnusuce cxton1s not only to
persons Of their own color, bYt also to many white
people, who gro ghito only us regards their skin.
