INDIaEsTIoN AND IENUTRTTIoN is the
foundation of consumption. All scientific
physicians admit this, and nearly all are
becoming convinced that pure liquor, COM
bined with vegetable remedies, which act
directly on the digestive organs, are the
remedies indicated.
1t Is admitted by our most learned ply
sicians that DIR. Roback's Bitters combine
the properties of gentle laxative, an eff
fcient anti bilious agent, and the best
stomachic known to the world. 1t is. also
acknowledged by practical chemists to be
the safest and surest preventive to bilious
arrangement, regulating the system and
giving tone to the digestive organs. y
Ladies in delicate health will find it suit

Thus it will be seen that Mr.. SHELLA-

Negroes in Greene county voted for him,
is nine hundred and ntHety-eight less than
1t was in 1854. In 1854 there were only
9,5S7 voters in the District who by their
ballots declared against the political ideas
ofwhich he was the then understood ex-

clared against the political ideas he repre-

GEORGE GERE,

The Judge stated that when the new jail
was completed the Sheriff desired that the
old rules should be modifei and some new
ones added, so as to adapt them to the new
building. This had yet to be done, and it
was not the fault of the Sheriff that the
law had not been fully complied with in

WEDNESDAY,, Oct. IL.
The Court was occupied all day In the
civil case of Augustus Platt against The
City of Columbus, on claim of damages
for an alleged nuisance. The examination
of the plaintiffs witnesses was concluded,
and that of those on the part ofthe defend
ant was commenced.
At four o'clock in the afternoon the
Grand Jury came into Court and returned
10 separate indictments as having been
found by them at the present term of the
Court, together with their report on the
condition of the county Jail. Having no
further business before them, they were
discharged. ,l ee W" "it
CONDITION OF THE COUNTY JAIL-REPoRT
OF THE GRAND JURY.
To the honorable Court Of Common Pleas
soithin and for the County Of FrdnklEn,
Ohio:
The Grand Jurors for said county and
State aforesaid, summoned, empanneled
and sworn for the October term, 1866, OF
your honorable Court, would report:
That In obedience to the instructions OF
the Court, they have Wis ted and carefully
inspected the condition of the jails of said
county and of the prisoners therein con-
fined. They find the new Jail in good
state and condition, cleanly, well kept, and
creditable to the officers III charge thereof; {;
and that the discipline and treatment oil the
prisoners therein confined, their habits,
diet, and accommodation were, so lar as
they were able to ascertain and judge, In
all respects, proper and commendable.
They regret, however. to find That IL IS
still deemed necessary to use the old jail Tor
the confinement OF female prisoners, as It's
condition is entirely the reverse Of the new
jail, being uncleanly and offensive, and
necessarily so from its situation and c0ndi-
ton beyond the power of the Sheriff to
make or keep otherwise. 1t is In our opin-
ion totally unfit for the purposes OF ill
and ought not, for humanity's sake, tO be
used for that purpose
We would add that we are unable to re-
port whether the rules prescribed by the
Court for the regulation and government
of the Jail, as to the cleanliness of the pris-
oners, their classification, bed and clothing,
employment and instruction Of the prison.
ers, supplying them with the scriptures, etc,
have been faithfully kept and observed or
not, as none such have been laid before us,
and we found none such posted up in said
new Jail. On inquiring of the jailor, we
were informed that he neither found any
such rules In the Jail when he came into IT,,
nor have there been any furnished him
since.
All which is respectfully submitted.

We mentioned yesterday morning the
arrest OF an individual for forgery, The.
name of the person alluded to is Elias Per-
nv Decker who, however, in his fraudulent
transactions, gave his name as Frank
Decker. He is young man residing in the
southern part of this county, and known
by many of our citizens. What could have
prompted him to the. commission of the
iorgeries and to pursue the bungling course
he seems to have done in his operations,
looks as though he was either idiotic or
half demented at least. ! ,lOJ
On Tuesday he called upon Messrs. Lake
& Emery, on State street, and pledged
forged note of hand for $s7 on Samuel
Sharp and CT, Woodring, on which he re-
ceived $50 in money. He also called on.
John Hunter, merchant tailor on South
High street, and passed over to him a
forged prommissory note for $3.50, on G. p
Dildine and Solomon Woodring, for which
he obtained from Mr.. Hunter suit OF
clothing costing $l30-Mr. H. giving him
a receipt for the note. a'u"4S' u''i7si
In the evening Deckercalled at Cornheld's,
the pawn broker, and pledged an over
coat he had purchased at Hunters worth
$40, for $50 in money and a watch valued at
$3.50. Here he was found by Hunter who
had suspicious that all was not right, and
was in search of him, Decker weni back
with Hunter to his establishment and while
there, endeavoring to arrange matters, some
one came in representing Messrs. Lake &
Emery, and pronouncing the note Decker
had left with them a forgery. After some
discussion, he refunded the $50 he had OBJ
tanned Of Lake & Emery. Returning to
Cornfeld's and not being able to arrange
matters there satisfactorily with Messrs.
Hunter and Cornfeld, the former went out
for police officer, while the latter detain-
ed Decker An officer was soon found and
Decker marched off to the station hause.
Yesterday afternoon, Decker had hear
ing before Mayor Bull on the charge of
passing the forged note for $3.50 to John
Hunter. He plead guilty to the charge, and
was required to nd bail in the sum OF 5000
for his appearance before the Court OF Com
mon Pleas. In default of compliance with
this requirement, he was sent to the county
iail. .|-ngat

The Presidents Organ on the Civil
Rights bill. #.r.. ..

The National IHtelligencer, the understood
organ of President JOHNSON, has said this
about the Civil Rights bill since it has gone
to the President for his approval. 1t will
be seen that the bill is of such a character,
in the IatelHgencer'S estimation, that it will
require patient and exhaustive examina-
tion to discover its virtues. We, there
fore, hope for aveto:
"The Civil Rights bill, as it has passed
both Houses, after the amendment of Mr. /.
Bingham, was laid before the President
on Friday. In the form in which 1t passed
the Senate, it was justly regarded by some
of the ablest minds of the country as an or
dinance for the consolidation of all Govern
ment In a central head, to be inaugurated
as statute, but established and perpetuated
by the military system, which, by its in-
evitable operation, would be exalted into
an overwhelming and self-sustainiDg SUI
premacy. The amendment of Mr.. Bing-
ham, in the House, obviated many special
objections of great gravity. and, In the
opinion of many, qualified the oill for
harmless, even if useless. operation. The
character of the statute Is such that more
than ordinary care in analysis will be re-
quisite for its fullappreciation, and the con-
scientious, patient and exhaustive examin-
alton and reflection with which the Presi-
dent is accustomed to consider measures of
this class will doubtless engage him for
some days before fully determining upon
the propriety of his own course with re-
gard to it." .... r... ...,

Twin Brother of the Freedmen's
Isureau m Bill.

For ability and penetrating perception
no one is superior to the Washingtonspecia
of the Chicago Times. He gives this opinion
of the Civil Rights bill:
1t is twin-brother of the Freedmen's
Bureau bill, differing from it only in being
more odious and more palpably violation
of the Constitution of the United States. The
Freedmen's bill had charitable object at
the bottom of it, though it was so thorough
ly buried out of sight by provisions origi-
mating only in political fanaticism as to be
scarcely visible, and many would have
overlooked the latter for the sake OF the
former. But no such plea can be entered
in favor of the Civil Rights bill, which Is
nothing, from beginning to end, but an at
tempt to take from the States of this Union
the police regulations of their internal al
fairs which clearly belong to them. Had
the provisions of such bill been attempt
ed to be incorporated into the Constitution,
it is plain from the debates of the Conven-
ton of 1857 that no Union could have been
formed. But, according to the Radical
theory, this or any other bill can be passed
and justified under the ''second clause Of
the constitutional amendment" which is
certainly the most potent legislative meas
ure ever dreamed of in this or any other
country. f.u.. .... rt.

Pursuant to call OF the Democratic Ex7
ecutiye Committee, primary meetings will
be held at the usual places Of holding
elections-in this township between two
and four O'clock this afternoon, and in the
several wards of the city between seven
and nine o'clock this evening-for the
election of delegates to the City and Town
ship Convention at the City Hall to-mor-
row evening, and for the nomination OF
Cohhcilmen, Assessors and School Direct
ors. We call the attention of the Democ-
racy of the city and township to the
Importance of attending these primary
meetings, If Democratic voters want faith
full, competent and true men to fill the city
and township offices, let them turn out
en- masse to these meetings, and let them be
punctual in their attendance. Now is the
time to work, as the election is close at
hand.

A came Chicken Attacks a child


A blue game chicken, about two years
old, having his location on State street,
nearly opposite the Capitol perceived yes
terday a small boy of some four or five
summers, strblling about the premises he
claimed as his own, and proceeded at once
to assert his right of "emiDent domain" "
not by appealing toa court of justice, but
by the use OF physical force with the weap-
ons nature had given him in the shape Of
strong and sharp spurs. He flew at the de-
fenseless boys head, iDfllcting with his
ugly spurs no less than seven different cuts
and gashes about the forehead and side Of
the head, and would, perhaps, have pro-
ceeded to still greater extremities Of cruel
ty, had not the child been, fortunately seen
and rescued from the trained feathered
! fighter. He probably suffered capitally
after he went to roost last evening, as we
understood such was the sentence passed
upon him.. .I af9i i4h y. +i

(. to gouge him with his talons; dog on the
defensive tried to oversetand bite his feath-
cred antagonist. They clinched IN the most

rolled over eagle and eagle over dog alter
nately, and both dipping occasionally deep
in mud and water. 1t was quite an anus

y In the Baltimore Convention that re-

mission OF the Tennessee Delegation, on
the ground that Tennessee was out of the
Union. 1t was consistent, then, for the ma
iority Of the voters Of that State, at the re-
cent election, to indorse the dead State tle-
ory which the Radicals are acting on In
Congress. Inasmuch as ten out Of tht
twelve Delegates in the Baltimore Conyen-
tion voted to receive the Tennessee Delega'
tiOn, that State should, onthe first Monday
