Pleasure Resort.

\ park IS one of the Improvements much
needed, ard though efforts have been made
spasmodically at different times to induce the
corporation authorities to take steps towards
improving certain localities to be used rs place
of resort, yet they have so far been without
result. Several propositions have been made
to the city authorities, donating land if the au-
thorities would improve the same. One of these
propositions was made by Gen. Joseph A.
Mabry and the last by the Directors of the
East Tennessee Agricultural Society but no
action was taken en- either, nor will likely be
very shortly We would, therefore, suggest to
the Worshipful County Court to further improve
the lot adjoining the courthouse, so auspiciously
commenced by Judge Jones, by setting out a
few shade trees and sowing the ground in blue
grass which, if done, would, in few years,
add much to its beauty, and if furnished with
rustic arbors and seats, make delightful place
of resort
If the county will beautify its own property
in the heart of the city and throw it open to the
public, we think it would have tendency to
stimulate the member of the City Council TO
move in the matter.

Jail Matters at CIinton-AImo stan Escape

Judge Hall holds the Circuit Court at Clinton
this week.
On Sunday there came near being general
jail delivery. Sheriff Robbins came over on
Saturday last and brought from the Knoxville
jail two Anderson county prisoners, w. l..
Brooks, who, it will be remembered, shot Cart
A. n. Ragle on the Court House Square at
Clinton at the noon recess of County Court sew
eral months ago, and Nathan Colclazier, oharg-
ed with stealing the money of the late E. W.
Boren, of Anderson county. These prisoners
were on Saturday night lodged in the Anderson
county Jail, where three others were already
confined. Some repairs had been recently made
on the Jail with view to render it more secure.
but not having been completed by Saturday
night it was left through Sunday in a compare
lively unsafe condition, the new laid floor of the
jail preventing the inner door, which is of grated
iron, from being closed sufficiently to shoot the
bolt OF the lock. This door was temporarily
secured mainly by two chains The outer door
OF the jail, which is of heavy wood
and solid, except small grated hole
IN the center, is left open during the
day to allow light and air to enter more freely
and only closed at bedtime. During the day
on Sunday it was discovered that the prisoners
had cut each of the chains nearly in two, filing
up the gaps in the links with dirt so as to con-
ceal their work. It is thought they had in pos
session file and probably a saw manufactured
from case knife. Their plan was supposed TO
be to wait till the jailor was absent at supper.
the outer door being at that time of day still
unclosed, and then finish breaking the chain
and make rush for liberty and the mountains.
a guard was kept over the Jail Sunday
night, and no escape occurred
Brooks will be remembered as the man who
shortly after his confinement in the Knoxville
JAIL nearly succeeded, in connection with an
other prisoner in breaking out
Ut the remaining prisoners at Clinton, one is
charged with malicious mischief in shaving
the name and tail of horse, and another, with
the somewhat novel crime of breaking into a
still house and drinking lot of 'sbackings."
