ESCAPE OF POUR NEGROES FROM
THE IAIIIN NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

From the Murfreesboro Monitor, Dec % n
On Thursday last, az u o'clock, Col. w.
II. Blanch, jailer, opened the door OF enc
Of the cells Of the Jail, in this city, for the
purpose of getting tin bucket which had
been handed into the prisoners occupying
said cell--6ve in number-all of whom
were negroes. Just as he had opened the
door, and while reaching for the bucket.
one Of the prisoners, named Squire Pear
son, caught hold Of Col. Blanch, and, as
sisted by another negro, dragged him int
the cell, when third party, named Isham
Ransom, who had managed by some means
10 free himselfof his irons, made an assault
upon the jailer with a heavy block Of woods
striking him a tremendous blow on the
head, the force of which knocked him Up.
on the floor Of the cell, where he lay in an
unconscious state. 8 i -.tE
-Four Of the prisoner lone failed 10 free
himself Of his irons and did not escaped,
Immediately upon the iailsrlbeing knocked
senseless, leit the iail and ran ia the d.
rection Of che railroad depot The alarm
was soon given, and pursuit Instantly fol-
lowed. Three Of the negrOes-Sqire Pear
son, Wan. Coleman, and one whose name
We failed 20 learn-were found hid away
in the grass and weeds on Depot Hill, and
were recsptured; but the fourth, Isham
Ransom, has thus far eluded pursuit. Il is
10 be hoped, however, that our efficient
Palice win succeed in their efforts to recap
ture him, as he was the ring-ieader Of tie
escaping party, and was in prison for CON-
hitting rape. The three who were relaken
had been committed TO Jail ON charges Of
stealing. - 81 -
Col. Rlanch WAS promptly oonyeyed 10
bis residence, aud medical aid procured.
His injuries are very severe, but il is hoped
they win not prove fatal. This s. the Sc
cond lime, within the past three or fonr
months, that he has been Knocked down by
prisoners attempting TO make their escape.

Committee Adjourned for the Holt
: days-AbOut aTRxsmiIlan.

New YORK, Dec. 22.-The committee
for the investigation Of frauds in the reye-
nue. department has adjourned not to reas-
semble til after the holidays. Develop
ments so far more than fulfill the promises
by those who were Investigated. The COM
mittee learned that gigantic frauds had
been practiced in New York, and govern
ment officials are implicated. They have
discovered that there are over three thou
sand small distilleries carried on in the city
in cellars and outside of private dwellings,
where whisky is made for the purpose OF
evading the tax Of 81 gallon. The COM
mittee will visit the principal cities Of the
west when they have concluded their work
in New York The magnitude of the leake
they are endeayoring to stop may be judged
from the fact that, according 10 the census
-of 1860, the amount Of whisky made in the
United States was upwards of ninety mil
lion gallons, and by the last report Of the
revenue commissioners, less than two mil
lions. l..-. o..

Tue constitution Of the United States
provides that private property shall not
" be taken for public use without Just
compensation The army took and de-
stroyed a great deal Of private property
from the Southern people during the war;
and now the Radicals are opposed to
their being paid for it. Mr.. Delano, of
Ohio, offered a resolution in the House of
Representatives on the Goth inst, which
was adopted, making It unlawful to pay
claims for property taken or destroyed in
the Southern States since the 18th of
April, 1851, until Congress shall further
legislate upon the subject and declaring
that the fact Of a claimant having been
pardoned shall not free him from the ac-

in the resolution because the Attorney
General has rendered decision that o
Presidential pardon entities the recipient
70 be considered loyal man, so far as
the settlement of his claims are con
cerned Here we see how the constitu-
ton is to be eVadad in order to keep the
Southern people cat of money justly due
them. The payment is not positively
but is suspended until further
legislation is had, which may not be so
long as the Radicals have control of
