WHIrs PINS PEcuLIARIrIss in the mat.
ter of prison discipline are thus limited
at by the News of the 18th inst:
This gentleman has gained some no.
torie:y through liberal application Of
physical force in resenting an insult
offered him while in the city prison.
An Investigation is talked of, and We
think it ought to be had. Officer Con-
nelly, one Of the most quiet and at the
same time efficient men of the police
force, las somehow been named 10 con-
nectiou with the difficulty. 1t see=s the
prisoner was disturbed by the jailer at
8 'cloek in the morning, for what reason
we have not heard explained. He made
some reply, and in return was grossly
insulted by the application of An oppro-
bious epi,het, which be intimated would
NOT be offered were be not a prisoner.
On being assured that the positions of
the two men should not interfere, he
knocked the jailer and the stove into =
heap in the hall, and proceeded to maui
the former to his entire satisfaction.
Officer Connolly, we believe, was sleep
ing in some portion of the building at
the time, but Mcdonald makes affidavit
that Connolly was not present, to his
knowledge, when be ESCAPED, and
to the best of his belief that that officer
knew soothing of his escape until after
it occurred. Mcdonald went down to
his clearinghouse, near the Big Smoky,
with the jail keys in bis pocket. On
tie facts ofshe case, McDonald's
promptly land not the City
took the Jail keys from him and
brought him back to prison to stand his
trial on the charge on which he was
first arrested. He was fined $50, which
the lady paid. The City Jailer is ex-
ceedingly tenderfooted about the mat
ter, and pitched into us in his usual
gross style, night before last, for what
We were going to say about the matter.
That looks suspicious in itself; but the
liquid 'croppings' to be met with about
The Jail ought to be looked to BY the
proper authorities-even il there was
nothing wrong in the Mcdonald matter.

Tss Wars Pms Grand Jury have
got through their labors and made theil
report. A synopsis of it appears in the
Inland Empire Of the 18th inst. We
should judge i, to be an interesting doc
omens-specially to the officials there
about. The following bills ofindictment
have been found:
For murder in the first degree, two assault
to commit murder, one; grand larceny, eleven:
forgery, two dereliction Of duty in Office,
:wo ; embezzlement, two; obtaining money
under false pretenses. one highway robbery,
two drawing and exhibiting deadly weapons.
one malfeasance in Office. one breaking
jail, one perjury, one.
That is :. pretty weigh'y catalogue Of
crimes and misdemeanors, and prepares
US for some pretty plain talk upon the
part of the Grand Jury. They intimate
that the County Treasurer 10 either .

from Jail to gross negligence or conni-
vance on the part of City Marshal

The Upton Record Of Friday states
that the Circuit Court for that county
was delayed from being opened, from
Monday until Wednesday, in conse-
qqence of Judge Swayne falling to re-
Aeive his commission in time. But,
as it was Afterwards opened by him,
we infer that hiscommissiOn has been
received. 1t Will be remembered that
we, some days since, raised the ques-
ton as to the competency of Judge
Swayne to try cases as the substitute
for Judge Reeves, when he was no
longer alive, and when a vacancy
existed which there had been neither
an election held, nor an appointment
made to I'll. Such a period was a
judicial i~nterregnum. Whether
any judicial acts were performed by
Judge SWayne during such a time, or
whether the new appointment came
Immediately on the death of Judge
Reeves we are not particularly adj
vised. But if cases were tried or
proceeded with between the time of
the demise and the new appointment,
it would seem to us to have been lille
gal and nugatory. 1t is a question at
least worthy Of consideration, that
s%uppOsition being taken for true. The
fact that Judge Swayne Us now pro-
ceeding with his Court, is satisfactory
that he has now a proper commits
sion for that purpose.

teaches that towns and villages will
be built up by manufacturing, and
farmers in their viciRity thereby
furnished a market, Thus a few
farmers will reap a portion Of the
manufacturers gains. Butithe great
body of consumers over the State must
pay for it. The mill owners Of our
own country do not clamor less loudly
for protection now than the Cana
dians. Indeed they find it more nee
essary than they did forty years ago.
and also necessary that the rate should
be higher. The more they get, the
more they need, and the heavier will
be their fall when protection is taken
of. Is it tor the interest of the eOun-
try that this process should go on for
ever? We have paid immense sums
for many years to establish and place
manufactures on a footing which
would enable them TO compete with
the factories Of Great Britain and the
Il r.. LM... -.NH..H "
continent. The protectlonists have
assured US from the first that the nee
sessity would soon pass away, and
the factories become self-supporting.
On the contrary, they grow less able
to stand, the moresthey ara "protec-
ted" Like all beggars and stipendi-
aries, the more they are pampered
and fed, the more their necessities in
crease, and the more they cry give!
give! 1t costs every poor laboring
man in the country one or two hum
dred dollars every year more to live
and feed and clothe his children, be
cause we must protect the manufac-
turers that prices may come down.
And the more we do it, the more they
go up. Some Of US have grown gray
to build up the manufactures
at the expense of paying two
prices for everything we eat
and wear To blot out the
tariff tomorrow would put a hundred
dollars in every poor mans pocket.
And then he could wear a slick hat
and shiny coat, and patent leather
boots for less money than he is now
for common jeans, wool hats,
eopperas breeehes and coarse brogans.
We have protected" manufactors
long enough. 1t is time to take care
Of ourselves. The people Of the inte-
rior, the farmer and the poor classes
not employed by the factories, have
he whole load to carry for the cotton
.Ords, and we think it is time they
should throw it off their shout
iers and buy goods from foreign
nations at low prices. This sup
the nation at the ex-
1ense OF all the people of the nation is
4 bad business.
