Nation CorRrnorSE, December i. The
facts in regard to the trouble at the
county Jail here aro briefly as follows
About ten o'clock yesterday morning
the prisoners, sixty.scvcn in number,
made a desperate attempt to break Jail.
They succeeded in forcing open tho cells,
and had reached the outer door, when
Shofitf Collins, with a'possc of citizens,
prevented their further egrcss by firing
through tho windows from the outside.
Although the effort to escape has thus
boon checked, tho prisoners nre not sub
,dued, and still bald possession of tic Jail.
They are closely watched, however, by
tho citizens, and It is hoped that strong
guard and no rations will ultimately
bring thcm, 10 terms. The Jail birds, on
the other hand, affirm ,hat they will
never yield, and that they will sally
