Rodman (DIstrIct Attorney Winslow) III moving
the nolIe prosequi Yesterday said. ..tne lndict-
meDts charge IN substance the Sheriff with
acting in collusiOn win the justices 10 procure
certain commitments TO be made which pnrported
TO represent tue imprisonment OF certain ind-
vidcals. but which aid not in iact represent such
prisoners. The OBJECT was, as alleged, to enable
tne Sheriff to make out Dill against the county
which would enable him TO obtain money Tor board
III jail not due him. Tnis charge covered u period
OF seventeen days on the first month Of mis- term
ana the hrst seventeen days oil his term, After
careful consideration OF the subject the blstrct
Attorney said he had come TO the conclusion that
so far as the Sheriff Is concerned mis- conduct
beginning to the end OF ths matter. He
had several anidayits IN his possession which
OF the irreguarity was some time in the latter part
OF January, 1879. when he was told by an Alder
man that rumors OF such commitments prevailed
during the term Of his predecessor and were con-
tinued. Wien the Sherir went To the jaii and
asked the Keeper, MIR. Conraddy, about the truth
OF the report tile latter emphatlcally denied II,
and the Shern told the keeper that II there was
any thing OF the KIND going on II must be stopped
He was subsequently assured OF the correctness
OF his frst bill, Tor the quarter ending March 81,
1873, and upon that representation the Bill was
subsequently, rendered. Then followed the inves-
ample restitution, and the sum OF $4,000
was agreed upon to cover the Irregular
that is great deal more than was properly
chargeaDle. the keeper testified before the Board
oil Supervisors that there was no wrong act or ir-
regularity whatever, and afterward before the
Grand Jury, he testified differently. The District
Attorney said he was satisfied that there was no
dishonest or criminal intent on the part OF the
Snerlfr He had no evidence IN his possession
to show any collusoa on the part OF the Sherif In
the wrong perperate Dy this keeper.
Judge Moore said IL seemed to MN the motion
for a n0lle presequl ought to be granted and that
1t was one that was eminently proper to be
granted. The result OF thorough investigation
made by the District Attorney resulted, az had
been stated, IN mis- being satisfied tnat there Is no
foundation for the charges against the Sneri, and,
as matter OF COURSE he IL satisfied that there
is no foundation for charges against the
justices. SO Tar as connected with the Sherln, In
their indictments on alleged Irregularities. At
this time, when charges against puoc officers are
rie, ana almost every man in al official capacity
Is looked upon with degree OF suspicion, ir is
gratifying that, alter full and impartial tnvestl-
cation, nothing has been found against those
officials to Justify or authorize there being put
Ger bail. He was glad lhatt he exOnerati0n was so
complete, and congratulated the officials Inter-
ested that the examination has established their
innocence IN these criminal accusations. the
order was granted.

The joint special COMMITTEE on Con-
stitutional amendments of the Legis-
islature have reported the first series of
amendments proposed by them to the
State Constitution They refer to the
exercise of the right of suffrage and are
dependent the one upon the other to
som degree and can therefore be voted
upon in the aggregate. The cores .
pondent of'the Petersburg News says:
''They propose to make the prepay
'ment of the poll tax a condition
prerequisite to voting and that the
whole sum thus raised be devoted to
the public school fund. and that the
provision now requiring tax of one
mill on the 500 value of property be
stricken out. 1t is believed that the
rate of 50 per head, the poll tax, Will
raise annually $45o,o1e, If rot $780,,
900, which is largely IN excess of the
present feTenGeS OF tne schools. Inc
other amendments III this group refer
TO the abolition of the ballot system
and the substitution of the viva voce
system; the abolition of the present
system Of registration, and the adop-
ton of the eapitation lists of .he assessor
as the legal registry. DR.. Ruffner, the
jealous guardian of the rights of the
public schools wishes the adoption of
the poll tax amendment, because it
snnihilates the last vestige If opposition
to the system, by shifting the burdens
from the property holders to the body
of the people '-4leu Gazette.

until this morning A strong wind
blowing, an extraordinarily disastrous
fire was anticipated, and it was not sub

half million property. The flames were
driven across the street, destroying the
dry house of Greasy & Noyes, csrpen-
tiers. Fearful havoc was made among
the wooden buildings between Plvmp-
ton and Wareham SITS. The large
planning mill of Morton & Chesley was
destroyed then that of J. J. Mcl utty
wood manufacturer The wind blew
the brands across Albany and
Water streets, and soon they we're

The new. ship Reporter, lying at
lIittingers wharf, caught fire in the
rigging, and was damaged to tho ex
tent Of $4,500. During the progress
of the fire a large number of vessels
lying along the wharves in the vicinity
were cut loose from their fastenings.
High tide and an unusual strong wind
prevented The, crews of the vessels from
getting I'd an anchorage after getting
into the stream. -Four of these vessels
drifted about until they collided one

came down with terrific crash on the
old Charlestosn bridge, short dis

draw. They stove up the fender of
the bridge guard. and the jib.boom of
one of the crafts struck the railing with
such force as to demolish it for dis.
lance of several rods. Some of these
vessels were heavily laden, and in some
instances were badly damaged.
