NEW CONVICT RULES.

Governor Mcdaniel Issues a New Set
of Rules for the Government of the
Camps.
Governor Mcdaniel has issued a new
set of rules for the government of the con-
Wet camps. The order provides that no
lessee, or any of his employees, shall allow
cOnvicts to guard cOnvicts, or in any
manner whatever have control of con-
victs, or permit cOnvictS to go beyond
prison bounds unless accompanied by
sufficient guard. All cases Of escape
must be reported at once to the principal
keeper, with the circumstances i'll full,
and in cases of negligent escape, the
lessee will be held rigidly-tO the penalty
prescribed by law. Within the stOckade
cOnvicts shall be released from the chain
on the Sabbath day and allowed to attend
divine worship, and the Sabbath shall be
strictly observed as day of rest.
Lessees are required to keep the male
cOnvicts separate from the female-prO-
Viding them with separate buildings at
night, and in assigning them to work; to
observe due regard for their sex and physi-
cal condition. Each convict must be
assigned to such duty only as he or she
may be able to perform without injury,
and i'll no case shall Il convict be required
to resume labor after a spell of sickness
until restored to health and discharged by
Pthe attending physician. The hours Of
labor shall be from sunrise to sunset, and
the cOnvicts shall have two hours for rest
and food at noon in the spring and sum-
mer months, and one hour in the fall and
winter months. Each convict must re-
ceive three-quarters of pound of side
bacon, or two pounds of beef or pork per
day, together with bread, syrup and vege-
tables without stint.
The Governor says:
'Lessees are required by law to furnish
each convict when discharged or par
doned, suit of citizens clothes, not to
cost less than six dollars, and transport
tation back to the county from which he
or she was sentenced, if so desired by the
convict. AS proof that these require
ments have been complied with, the lessee
Will forward promptly to this office re-
ceipt for the amount so furnished to said
discharged or pardOned cOnvicts.'
The rules in regard to hospitals, bed
ding, whipping, etc, are stringent, and
are written in terse style, which shows
that the Governor means what he says.

Wonnded with a Dirk.

\ cOlored. woman named Julia Small
applied at the City Dispensary Saturday
night for the treatment of a wound intlict-
ed with dirk in the hands of her son, a
young man named Cyrus Small. The par
ties live at Louisville. From the state
ment of the woman it seems that she and
her son became involved in a quarrel,
during which the son drew a knife and
struck her in the side. He drew back the
knife to strike a second blow, when She
threw up her arm in defense and received
the blow on her left hand, the blade of the
knife sinking into the flesh between the
thumb and first finger, cutting fearful
cash. Efforts were made to secure the
assailant, and the woman came to the
city for treatment. The case was at
tended by DR.. Chisholm.

as to the work to be done at the institutes
a committee was sent to GOV. Mcdaniel,
and he was invited to come before the
teachers. He complied, and made brief
talk. in which he expressed himself as
heartily in favor of every reasonable adj
vancement of the cause of education by
the State.
In the afternoon the teachers went be-
fore the Educational Committees of both
houses of the Legislature, who met in
joint session to receive them. Senator
| Parks presided over the Joint committee.

for larger appropriation and the better
training of common school teachers. The

must be depended on.
