--Hollohan and Nicholson, the murderers
of Mrs, Lampley, in Baltimore city, on the
I'd of January last, WILDE hung on the list of
August. That day has been set apart as
general hanging day, the Governor having APP
pointed it as the day for the execution of all
persons in Baltimore city convicted ofcaptal
crimes.
On last Friday while seventeen Modoc
captves, including four warriors, were being
conveyed to place of safety, the party were
attacked by band of Oregon volunteers, and
four of the warriors were killed and num-
Der of women wounded. Such acts are not
calculated to give the Indians an exalted idea
of white mans justice.
The Democratic convention of the city
OF Baltimore met on Tuesday, to nominate

clerk of the Court of Common Pleas, clerk of

bents of those offices.
1t is saidto be the intention of the ali

REPORT
OF THE
GRAND JURY.
ON THE
Condition of Aims House Il Jail.
MAY TERN.

Grand Jury Room, May 21st, 1873.
To tile Honorable tile Judges
Of the Circuit Court for Hartford County,:
The Grand Jurors for May Term of the
Circuit Court for Hartford county, respectfully
report to your honor that they have concu-
ded all business brought before them, and
now await your order for their discharge.
We have examined 63 witnesses, found IA
true bills, and dismissed the charges in cases.
We deem it subject for congratulation that
although we have made diligent enquiry, we
have been unable, save in one instance to dis
cover any violations of our license laws, or of
the laws governing the sale fliquor on Sun
day or to minors. In the indictments pre-.
sented by us no serious attractions of law are
recited, and we ask the privilege of suggest
ing to our Legislators the propriety of enact
ments enabling justices of the peace to settle
minor offences against law, and to punish, by
fine, those who are proved guilty of common
assaults, petty larceny, &c We think this
would be a considerable saving of expense to
the county, as well as to Individuals who
have to now frequently come long distances
to prosecute trivial offences, which might be
settled near their homes.
We have visited that building in Bel Air
popularity known as the Hartford county JAIL
and we unite in condemning it as one utterly
unit for the purposes TO which it is applied.
1t is too small, too announcement and too I'M
safe, for even the temporary confinement of
persons charged with crime, and we earnestly
trust that our County Commissioners will, at
an early day, provide for the erection ofanoth-
or. There are now in the jail 2 white men,
II colored men and 3 colored women, and
for the comfort Of these Sheriff Forwood has
made every possible provision. Indeed we
congratulate the Sheriff on having done so
well under the manifest difficulties surround
ing him.
We have also visited the Amshouse, and
found therein - inmates, viz, 4 white males,
3 white females, 3 white children 1 colored
man, colored females, and colored child
rem. These paupers are kept and cared
for by MIR. Worthington, the overseer of the
farm, in manner which commands our high.
est commentator. We are pleased, also,
with his general management of the farm,
and think he has done WELL considering the
character of the labor he has been compt Lied
to employ. In this connection, we would no.
tice another matter: The County Commits
sioncrs have, by late order, restricted the
manager of the Aims House to the use of two
horses. The majority of our jury is compo-
sed Of practical farmers, and we unhesitating-
ly declare, as our best judgment, that Mr..
| Worthington cannot carry on the operations
of the farm without three horses at least, and
we suggest such modification of the Com
missioners order as will allow him that
| number.
Respectfully submitted,
THOMAS CORD,

dD1'. RoDnnr u. LEE.--In tho Eain6,,roh
Recieao, for April, an article on Robert E. Lee
will bercad with deep interest. 1t is grand
tribute from an unbiased source. For its
estimate of the general place that Lee is to
hold in American history the following senten-
ccs will suffice as well as a volume:
"The day will come when the evil passions
of the great civil strife will sleep in oblivian,
and North and South will do justice to each
others motives and forget each others wrongs.
Then history will speak with clear voice of
the deeds done on either side and the citizens
of the whole Union do justice to the memory
of the dead, and place above all Others the
names of the great chief of whom we have
written. In strategy mighty; in battle terri
BILE; in adversely, as in prosperity, hero in
deed, with the simple devotion to duty and
the rare purity of the ideal Christian knight,
he Joined all the kingly qualities of a leader
of men. 1t is n wondrous future, indeed,
that lies before America, but in her annals of
years to come, as in those of the past, there
will be found few names that can rival in I'M
sullied lustre that of the heroic defender of
his native Virginia, Robert Edward Lee"

negro named Lewis Draper was on the
stand, as witness for the defence, in the case
Of the State vs. William Preston, colored, in
dicted for breaking into colored woman's
sleeping apartment. Draper at first swore
positively that he had examined the door of
the room in question, and that it contained
no marks of having been broken open. A
rigid cross examination, however, was suf1i-
cient to show that the witness had committed
perjury, in the most deliberate manner !;
whcreupon Judge Waters promptly ordered
bench warrant to be issued for his arrest,
and he was taken from the witness stand to
the Jail by Sheriff Forwood, but was subsc-
quently released by order Of the Court.
