Tho Charge of Judge Alc1Iapana to tho Grand
Jury Of Owon County, Kentucky, III rofcronco to
the recent outragea perpetrated there, whilo a
! most commondablo and outBpoken declaration,
disclosed an alarming stato Of society In that
quarter. Ho commences by saying that this il
the frat time that court has been held in Owen
County without tue presence OF numbers OF clt,-
zena carrying doadly weapons. He then in
stances case Of murder committed In thu
streets Of Monterey whoro tho Sheriff refused
to execute writ for tue arrest Of tho asyasyin.
aud ho calls upon tho jury to indics tho
Sheriff. He aays that precapt aftor precopt
Las been Issued from tho Court for tho
arrest Of criminals and returned by tho officers
Of tho Court Mot found, !" although tho partioa
might have boon .oagily found That Is to Bay
the Sheriff andhia gang aro in collusion With tic
criminals: IIc expresses tho firm determination
to rid tho county of theso dcspcradoes, oyon ut
the hazard Of hia own life, and he asks tho
Grand Jury to support him III 80 doing.
The Judge mnkcs no particular reference to
tho outrages perpctrated upon negroes in Ken
tucky, but evidently includes them IN bis general
charge, sinco lo adJures the jury to perform
their duty oven in defiance Of hostile public
opinion. Tho murder porpetruted At Moutorey,
which tho Sheriff SO cnolly iguorod, Bcoms
to have bcen the killing of wlaito boy by
nhitomsn, but it is hardly to be supposed that
public opinion In Owen County aequiosccs il,
murder as ono Of tho Inc arts per Sc. Tho kill
ing Which il really sanctioned, and against tho
popularity Of which he warns the Jury, ,nust bo
tile killing Of blaehs. Nevertheless ho rcmarss
TINT the presence OF Slate mud United statos
troops III tho county for tho purpose Of sup-
pFeaaing tho outragos was gratifying 10 tall
good people," from which it may be
inferred that public sentiment is diyid-
ed i'll owen County OH tho subject
OF killing negroes. Flo might hayo add
cd that tho WAY to mako public sentiment III
tho country ut large tolerably united Is to kill
10" moro negroes mud elect fow more ShoriYs
OF tho Owen County pattorn.
Whatever may be the sullosings Of tho South
