Important Inquiries.

Mr. Editor IL would be pleased, rs one of
the party, to have answered the following qnes-
lions by some Democrat who is sufficiently
informed with its organization
LIST. Does every man who participates 10 the
Primary elections pledge bis faith ard honor
to support the nominees made by such choice,
or is he at liberty TO take part in such cleo
lions aud then oppose such nominations2
End. Is there any United States law which
compells our farmers to employ the colored
people in this county, who are used year after
year by the Republican party for political
purposes, or have the people here the same
right as the government at Washington cxer-
cises to employ none but its friends and adj
herents2
Mr. Editor, these are important questions
and Of deep interest to the Democratic party,
and trust some of the leaders of the party will
answer them. ENQUIRER.

Lord Salisbury's reply 10 Secretary Evarts
despatch on the halifax fisheries award, is in
effect declinaton on the part of the British
government to consider the question as 10
whether the award was excessive or not. The
award, he claims, was made by the commits
sion after exhaustive examination of the sub
ject, and must be regarded as final. The Brit
ish government could not reopen the question
of damages and act upon il inteligen,ly with
out making the same examination that was
made by the commission, nor could they act
in the capacity of II high court o. appeals in
any case, because they were in fact iliganis
themselves. The other question incidentally
raised, OF the competency of a majority of an
international commission to make such an
award, Lord Salisbury examines exhaustively
and decides that the weight Of authority IA
vors the affirmative side of the question.

REPORT OF THE GRAND JURY.

To Tie HOucraJle Judges of the Circuit Court
for Montgomery County:
The Grand Jurors for the November Term,
1878, beg leave to make the following report:
The repairs of the Jail have been complet-
ed. The Sink constructed TO carry off the
fetid matter by means of an underground
drain. is in very bad condition. The drain
is evidently stopped up, as the Tailor made
persistent effort to discharge the contents OF
the Sink, but failed. On the west side of the
building, by imperfect grading and very
inmdicious arrangement of the spouting, the
water settles along the wall, passing through
TO the basement floor, upon which lies large
mass of old bricks, mortar, &C., greatly 10
the Inconvenience of the jalor.
Number of prisoners, twenty-one, one white
man, one colored woman, all adults except
two, (they nearly grown.) Proper care is
shown for their comfort by sufficient beds
and bedding and thorough cleanliness of the
building.
The addition to the Aims House, is also
completed, making 1t verycomfortable with the
exception Of dampness in one Of the basement
dining rooms and pantry, caused by the wa.
ter settling outside.
The number OF inmates twenty nine-nine
white males and two white females; nine col
oreG men, six colored women and three col
ored children, all of whom seem to receive
proHer care and attention.
Not only the building and its apartments
present an air of commendable n eatness, but
thefarm, containing ninety-eight acres, shows
good attention, on which was raised the pres
ent season 23O bushels of wheat, 100 barrels
OF corn, IA tons of hay, aud potatoes and veg
