A Big Plot.
AN UNSUCCESSFUL ATTEaPT TO CLEAR co.
LUABfA, s. e., JAIL.

LIAbiai % ~ hAib.
COLUMBIA, S. c., April 25.--William
Lowry, IA guard employed Mt the pebi.
tentiary, was arrested yesterday after.
noon and taken before United States
Commissioners Stoeber charged with
counterfeiting silver currency. After a
preliminary examination he was sent to
Iail in default OF bail to await his trial
at the approaching session of the United
States Court.
The circumstances which led to this
arrest are as follows: Colonel Liscomb,
the superintendent OF the penitentiary,
had information causing him TO suspect
that some OF the convicts were making
arrangements to escape. In pursuing
his Investigations he directed one oil
the white prisoners to secrete himself
under the bed OF one oil the suspected
negro convicts. While there other con.
vcts came in and engaged in converse.
tinn with the negro about the plot and
disclosed the plan Of operation, all OF
which was duly reported 10y the man
under the bed to the authorities, who
Immediately summoned twenty or thif'
ty of the convcts for examination.
When they found that their plot had
been discovered some OF them peached
on Others, and many openly confessed
their completely IN the ALTAR. II was
ascertained that eighty OF the negro
convicts had entered into solemn con
spiracy to escape at all hazards. They
had managed to conceal clubs, hatchets,
knives and axes, and had agreed 10
make their attempt at escape at day.
break Sunday morning. My l. When
the guards came to release them from
their cells they would simultaneously
rush upon and over power them, and,
If necessary. murder them. The plan
was well arranged, and would doubtless
have been executed but for the discov
cry made by the superintendent.
When the officers were prosecuting
their search for evidence against the
they discovered a band OF
among the white con.
yicts, and found dies and other implc
ments for couuterielting concealed IN
the cell. Large quantities OF coin, sill
yer dollar, h:ty cent pieces and quar-.
,crs were also found. These base coins
were so zkilliully made that tut for
their light weight no bank clerk could
have detected lhei! spurious character.
II is said that Columbia i flooded with
this money. The matter has occasioned
much excitement here, especially since
Il is said that some of the guards ARE
implicated. II is expected that other
arrests will be made to morrow and aa
i.lonal facts elected.
