GRAND JuRv REroRr.-The Grand Jury, Before
adjourniug Friday. returned into Court the fol-
lowing report:
To sie OrcSit Coar. Of Wayne Couafg:
In accordance 18th the instruction of the Court
and rs provided by the statutes OF the State, the
Grand Jury Of the February term 1867. duly empan-
neled and qualified have made personal inspection of
the County Prison, and find that it scarcely be
said to be Sufficient for the safe keeping of the
prisoners, although with frequent repairs and much
watchfulness, has been made sufficient keep the
prisoners from escaping. when, by organized
sauit the Sheriff, by which his life greatly
dangered nearly all the prisoners escaped but
recapturei. An extra watch outside has been kept
for several months past Its capacity is no. equal to
the number Of prisoners who have been confined in
it during the past six months, for the probable
future wants of the County. There are but two
rooms of sufficient security to confne ableb
meu. These each IA feet square and 10 feet high.
1t has been necessary to con6ne in them during the
past six months from eight to twelve en-, with 20
opportunity for change and with no closets out
side the rooms al the excremen:s being retained in
vessels in the room with the prisoners for several
hours. Each room has but one window for light and
ventilation, about two feet high by one wdc so gra-
ted that not more than half this space admits of
light and air. During the day, ven.ilst is assisted
These do 81 feet long by feet wiie and a.
night are closed by heavy iron door with but
small aperture At the bottom for ventilation. 1t is
estimated by good authorities that $50 cubic feet
air is breathed by in "a hours and that for
health and comfort at least 1000 cubic feet air is
necessary, and tina, this should be changed every
hour. II is apparent that in space containing bu,
1860 cubic feet Of air, with little opportunity to
change. not more than could b confined with
due regard to health. The admission of SO little
light is also very detrimental to the health.
We can hope for no moral Improvement amongst
prisoners where old and young. those hardened in
crime, AID those now in it, promseuously thrown
together under snch circumstances.
We would therefore respectfully represent to the
Court that the present Jail is totally insucisnt for
the safe keeping Of the prisoners and for their ccnv
uient accommodation and health, and that it is no.
crsdsabls to civilized and enlightened community
We find that it has been well kept since the last
tsrm Of the Court circumstances would adm, Of
Respectfully Submitted.

IDinse. Again.

Mn. EDIroR:-One of the :. public represents him.
self as vastly amused at the attempts to bring into
circulation the dimes. Reals have been reduced in
value to dimes they are being collected and locked
up in the Treasury, so that in a short time no reals
can be had, without the least advantage in favor Of
the dimes. This individual had a dime and he tried
n whole week to spend it tried it on mangoes,
oranges, eggs, a hat ribbon, and n newspaper, all in
vain, until lac has arrived at the conclusion that peo-
pie must alter their prices, the dime be raised in
value To the real, or he will have to keep his dime to
buy postage stamps. len CENTs.
REMARKs.-The experiment of bringing dimes into
circulation, if not n failure, ut least proves to be an
extremely difficult task. The main trouble appears
to be, as our correspondent says, in the scale of prices
being adjusted to the Spanish system and not to the
deciual-to reals, quarters and halves, and not TO
dimes, quarters and halves. Before dimes can be-
come current or popular, the prices % the leading
articles used by the people must be changed 10 meet
the case. Let the bakers, for instance, make their
loaves of bread, of the value of n dime, and sell for
dimes instead of reals; let the retailers fix the prices
Of all kinds of cloth at the dime standard, and sell
by the dime. If this is done with all articles, and
the changes are generally made throughout the group,
dimes irLH soon come into use.
The great drawback with the natives is a rranf OF
confidence in the American dimes and half dimes.
Eighteen years ago they suddenly became deprecated
in value twenty per cent. All AT once, the greatest
dread and suspicion of the genuineness of the coins
was created among them and they looked on them as =
counterfeit and worthless, and many even threw
away their dimes, such a fear had they of them. The
older natives, who lost through the depreciation,
have taught the younger people TO dread. dislike
them and have nothing to do with them whatever.
The first way to introduce them is 10 restore conf
denee IN them and this can only be done by making
them the standard of value. and fixing the prices OF
all cheap articles according 10 the dime and not the
real. Should the reciprocity treaty 20 into operation
next spring. 1t will offer the best opportunity for
making n change of this kind that can be wished. As
the cost Of flour. Priuts, denims and eottons will he
reduced - as "a free the trader from much lass 10y it.
We are still confident that dimes and half dimes can
Ia brought into circulation again with the natives

The Tax Order Issued.

General CANB7, exercising the legislative
authority vested in him by the military act ol
Congress, has issued the long expected or
der regulating taxation to support the ex'
penses of the State organization of South Caro-
lima during the current year. The details ol
this order have, it is understood, been arranged
with great care and deliberation by the Com
mouding General, who, while preparing them'
availed himself freely of the practical sugges-
tions and assistance of Governor Orr.
The chief feature of interest in the order is
that it provides expressly for general reas-
sessment of the property, in town and country
throughout the State. This reasscssment Is to
be made without reference to any previous
assessment, and is to be based upon the actual
market value of the property, taking into ac-
count oil the improvements which have been
made, enhancing the value of land.
The effect of this provision will be to relieve
the City of Charleston from the burden which
she has so long borne, owing to the singuarly
partial manner in which the State assessments
havo hitherto been adjusted, and which i'm
posed upon her citizens an undue proportion oi
the whole tax collected.
it will be seen that half the tax is made
payable on or before March 81, 1868. This
will bring up the value of the State bills re-
ceivable to nearly par, as they will be as avail
able as greenbacks for the purposes of tax
payers.
We may notice other features Of the order
more fully hereafter.

other disturbers of the public quiet. 1t is true
that nobody believed either protest OF dcclara-
tion, but now all doubt is cleared away, and
the leagucrs, with refreshing candor which,
under less tolerant government, might con-
sign them TO Siberia or Cyenne, announce
their preference for the redress of grievances
by "knocking rulers down."
Earl DERBY and Mr.. D'Isn.ELi are in no dan
ger of being mobbed or shot, for the leaguers
have pious love for their skins; but their
bumptious language does remind one that they
have given up all claim upon public sympathy
and oil chance of even continued notoriety.
The English middle classes have deep and
almost super ,titious reverence for the laws Of

and buster; but they soon vindicate their OWL

-Four Bad He&son5.

Some persons who call themselves friends OF
the South give four reasons why the Southern
States should be allowed to return into The
Union. They say that it will tighten the bur-
den of taxes to the North, that it will give
the North again The Southern tradc,-that 1t
will give the North strength in case of a for
eign wer,-tha it will crafty the feelings of
the patriotic men of the North. In reply, four
other reasons might b. given on the part Of the
South that the Southern are most Interested
in tightening their own burdens,-that the South
does not want any war with anybody on any
tcrms,-that the South prefers 10 keep its trade
in Southern cities,-thatit it does not care to graf
ify the feelings of patriotic men. But, seriously
the four reasons frs. mentioned do not give the
faintest sign OF the justice, the law and civili-
cation, which are the real parties in the case
According to the whole theory of me war on
the part of tho Nc ',h, secession Jailed, and in
lc,o the Southern States are just as much in the
Union as the New England States are, and in
la,v they are entitled to the same rights and
ecualites Acts of Congress can no more de-
s;roy these rights than Russian cdict could
do. Their failure to sccede left them in the
Union; Congress acquired no new powers; !;
only the powers delegated by tho States re-
nained., as before, il the hands OF the Federal
Government If the friends Of the Southern
States mad majority in Congress hey would
have Just as much right to send military
governors to rule over New England, as the
friends Of New England have to send military
governors to rule the South. The question Of
allowing the South to take her place IN the
Union is not one of selfish policy, but one Of
right, justice and lew; and the continued e1-
clusion of the South is an effort not only to
overthrow both the State and Federal systems
of the whole country, but to uproot our very
civilization, by ANAL samating it with az inie-
r;o md irnornnt race

A pledge was given, when the present pro
pretors took charge of tie DAILY News, that
neither pains nor expense would be spared &c
give interest to It's columns, by making It,
every day, the vehicle of the latest news p0.
litical, local. commercial and general, prepared
in the form most convenient and pleasing &c
the reader. Our rapidly increasing oircula-
ton affo ds the best evidence that the public
appreciate the manner in which that pledge
has been kept.
An instance occurred yesterday which Illus
trates the energy and enterprise which we
intend shall mark the future career OF THIS
newspaper. The Presidents Message was de-
liyered to Congress about one o'clock P NJ
Instantly carefully prepared synopsis giving
all the points of special interest TO the Southern
reader, was flashed over the wires for THE
DAILY News, and at once put in type by the
nimble fingers of our printers; so that, within
n few minutes after two o'clock, an EXTRA
News was issued, giving our citizens the earll'
est intelligence of the views and purposes ex'
pressed by the President.
We live in fast age; and we are resolved
,ha. our journal shall in no respect be behind

The English Reformers.

The Reform league, notwithstanding the pas
sage of the Reform bill, is as fiery and active
as ever. English reform being se'tl. d for the
time, the leaguers have taken up tue cause Of
the Irish, and DO not intend TO stop their agi-
ta:ing until Ireland has as many votes, and as
much liberty, as has her ruling neighbor. The
means OF securing this great end are rather
forcible than reasonable. One head reiormer
recently declared that the Irish were fully
justified in using physical force to redress
their wrongs. Another ra;d that Erin would
never mako an impression upon her rulers
until she Knocked down somo of them,-this
ingenious orator considering tha, dint in the
skull was US good as an impression upon the
brain. Another shouted out that the Fcnians
should go on aid prosper; and SO, to the end
1t is not likely, 6: course, that the English
lcaguers will do any more taan shout and
splutter to help tbs people Of Ireland, but
their big words Go show them to the public in
their true and natural colors. Long rnd loudly
nave they declared that they are peaceful,
order loving subjects of Queen Victor;a, ami
they have, again and again, protested against
