Jai, Delivery.

Last Sunday at noon, as Deputy
Sheriff Jeter bad the doors Of the
JAIL open, the three negroes con-
lined for the burning of the court
house broke past him and made
good their escape. Mr.. Jeter had
been careless enough to open the
doors while he had no weapon with
him, which the negroes must have
noticed. As they started Mr.. Jeter
yelled for help, and six or eight
persons started to his assistance
The race was lively one for a
mile or SO, but the negroes having
a start OF a hundred yards and the
advantage of tall corn to conceal
themselves IN, succeeded in getting
to the woods, only one of them
having to run the risk of three pis-
tol shots, none of which, unfortu-
nately, took effect. One or two
persons were close enough to have
doHe good execution with a navy
SIX, or shotgun, but were unarmed.
The fugitives separated and made
the woods safely. About dusk one
of them was overhauled in a cabin.
but broke for the brush amid
pistol and shotgun fusilade. 1t
has been reported that the negro
was struck, but it is very doubtful,
as no sign could be found at the
place he entered the jingle.
