 Sir:-We, your committee appointed to examine and report on the following build ings, viz, the county court house, jail and hospital, have performed their duty and beg leave to report.

We also find that the table is supplied with good wholesome food, and hear no complaint from the county patients. And we believe that the county hospital is being kept in a satisfactory manner.
 Second-We found the court house in a satisfactory condition.
 Third-We find the jail in good order, but hear some complaints that the prison CTS are not as well fed as they should be, and recommend that the proper officers should see that reasonable amount of wholesome food be furnished the prisoners.

 PRESCOTT, May p, 1882. Geo. w. Curtis, Esq.,, Foreman of the Grand Jury
 Sir-Your special committee appointed to examine the books and affairs pertaining to the Probate Court, Justices Courts and the office of the District Attorney of Yavapai County, are pleased to report that every fla cility for such examination was afforded them, and that they found the business matters of the several offices in a satisfactory condition. The Probate Judge, A. o. Moves, has evidently been very diligent in settling up old cases which have been finger ing in court for years, and all matters that have come into court during his term of office have been promptly attended to. The District Attorney, J. P. Hargrave, has had an unusual amount of business for that office, in expenditng which he has been as sisted by his law partner, w. II. McGrew. and the numerous criminal writs have been, as the records show, promptly and vigor- ouslv prosecuted. The dockets of il. w. Fleury, 4. 0. Moves and J. L. Hall, Jus ticeg of the Peace, are carefully written up and everything IA la1,r office business ap- pears to be in proper shape.
 While the Probate Judge has been very prompt and diligent in performing the du- ties assigned to him as Probate Judge, we must say that he has negiecipd th!e aEtles as signed him as ex-oticio superintendent of public instruction.
