been Gifted"
Grand Jury's Report.

The Grand Jury beg leave to report
that as far as they have been able to
investigate, they ind the County affairs
in II satisfactory condition.
The County Commissioners appear
to have the welfare of the county NJ
heart, and while we note commend
able spirit of enterprise where public
Improvements are needed, in keeping
with the resources and requirements of
Il large county, we also take great pleas
ure in noticing the absence of all ex-
travagance and u strict economy dis
played in all their public acts.
We find the offices of the county
officers in good order aud their books
well kept, and we are of the opinion
that all our present county officers are
faithful and conscientious in the per-
formance of their duties.
The Jail, in point of safety, compares
favorably with any in the territory.
We found it neat and clean and web
ventilated and the prisoners healthy and
well kept.
We lind that the Board of County
Commissioners have again entered into
contract with the Sisters of Charity of
Helena, for the maintenance of and
attendance on our county poor and
sick, and from n comparison of prices
charged by the Sisters with those
charged by other parties, we are con-
vinced that 1t Is economy to keep them
there for the present, especially as the
limited number of county charges'here-
tOfore and now on our hands, would not
warrant the establishing of poor farm
ut the present time.
We would again impress on all mag
istrates the utmost care in conducting
preliminary examinations and only
bind parties over for their appearance
before the Grand Jury, when the evil
dence makes u conviction probable;
also, in committing prisoners to Jail to
await the action of the Grand Jury
without sufficient evidence or creditable
witnesses to make an indictment prob
able, thereby augmenting the already
large expenses of the county.
We find that by the negligence Of
road supervisors our public roads, Ill
many places, are unnecessarily in bad
condition, by allowing the waters from
irrigating bitches to run over the roads
without restraint. We would recon-
mend that all parties in any way OBJ
structing the public highway, be pros
ecuted according to law and that tho
road supervisors fulfill their duties by
prosecuting all parties who do in any
way obstruct or damage the public
highway.
Our report would not be complete
without the endorsement of Col. J. A.
Johnston, District Attorney, who by his
energy and ability in prosecuting crimi-
mails, has earned the thanks Of all the
good citizens of the county -.
Respectfully submitted this 9th day
of April, 1854.

Take the Charlestown papers as an index
Of the feeling of the people No matter
what political falSehoOd on the Republican
side is exploded, the echo of the old story
never dies out in that bourbon stronghold.
Two or three weeks ago there was 4 report
that Gen. Logan spat in a mans face for
saying that he raised the rebel flag. No
body believed it; nobody believes it now !;
only the lowest and most degraded would be
capable of such action; vet the Jefferson
press repeats it in good earnest, while the
intelligence of its editors must tell them it
is not -ndrfinsJWg Herald.
We gave the current item about Gen. Lo-
gan, and commented on his expectorative
genius. OF course we saw Republican de-
nial, Of tive have seen Mr., Blsine's de-
mails of things actually M on record. As TO
Gen. Logan's Hinton performance; we were
informed by gentleman who visited Hin
ton that he there learned of the circumstance
and of the character of the man West. 1t
may be that the soldering English of the
republican candidate for Vice President
was mistaken for what was alleged against
him.
