No county in the State has been more

have found indictments against nearly all
the prominent officials in the county in

trust some special effort will be made
at this meeting to pay DIR. Wharton the
balance due him. The debt to him is a
peculiar one, contracted in 1870, to COM
plete repairs, when funds for the purpose
could not be obtained from any other
source.
The Sixth Annual Fair was, perhaps.
in all respects, the most successful of any
yet held by the Association. The De
partments, with one or two exceptions,
were better filled than on any former oc-
casion. The field and garden, household
and needlework departments were not as
well represented as heretofore, but this
may be attributed to the unfavorabe sea-
son for crops, and to the fact that the Pre-
MUM List was issued so late in the year.
The premiums for field crops should be
announced in January or February and
the entire list of premiums should be pub
lished before the first of April.
| would recommend an increase in the
premiums on field crops and stock, even
if be at the expense of other departments
not so essential. [ would also suggest
that one or more substantial premiums be
offered to the Oranges exhibiting at the
next Annual Fair the largest and best
variety of products of the field, garden,
orchard AMI dairy.
the gentlemen composing the jackson
Jockey Club, for the systematic and salts
factory manner in which they conducted
matters pertaining to the track also to a
number of citizens who contributed liberal
ly to the purses offered.
The Fair Ground buildings are now in
good condition, except the fence. a large
number of posts are rotten, and must be
replaced before another Fair is held.
have heard the suggestion repeatedly made
that the present enclosure is too large IRE
quiring about mile and half of fenc-
ing), and that half mile track would
fully answer the purpose for trials of speed
that it would be fully as acceptable to
owners of horses, and that it would bring
the contestants nearer the view of the
spectators. A portion of the ground now
enclosed is private property, and an
arrangement has to be made annually for
its use. If the area of the ground was
contracted as suggested, and the same
we'll enclosed, there would be no difficulty
in leasing the property to responsible
parties, who would either pay rent, or
would agree to take proper care of it.
The proposed change would involve some
expense, but the annually saving would
be very considerable.
The free admission of schools on Fri
day of Fair week has been greatly abused.
A large number of very large children
attached themselves temporarily to some
of the schools in order to gain free
admission. The Board of Control might
adopt some regulation that would protect
the Association from being thus imposed
upon.

Foreman of the Grand Jury.


OF course these astounding revolutions
coupled with the weight of the tax-burdens
practically felt, have aroused public indIg
nation to the highest pitch. On Thursday
last, public investigation was held at
Vicksburg to consider the grievances and
the sentiment of the meeting seemed to
be unanimous that the plundering officials
should vacate the places they occupy
without delay In order to have fuller
attendance, and to mature measures for
final action, the meeting adjourned to
reassemble on yesterday (the 2nd). Its
proceedings will be looked to with deep
interest.

GRAND LuRY's REPORT.
GRAND JOh1
To the Hon. Geo. F. Brown, Judge

To the Hon. Geo. F. Brown, Judge
Warren County Circuit Court:
The Grand Jury respectfully report
that they have completed their labors and
ask to be discharged. During their labors
they have found forty indictments, impli-
eating among others, prominent officials
and ex-officials of the county, for forgery
and embezzlementS exposing such frauds
as astound the community, and who await
with patience the action of the court and
petit jury, to bring to justice the official
plunderers, to whom they have entrusted
the welfare of the county. During our
session it was ascertained that the public
records we're altered and changed to suit
the purpose of these plunderers; and since
the indictments have been returned to the
Court, those records have been by some
parties stolen, in efforts to hide the guilt OF
the offenders. We have made diligent IN
quiry into the matter, but without being
able to ascertain anything in refere nee
thereto We found the Jail in good order
and properly kept.
