A. Suggestion and a Warning.

1t has been a matter of concern to
me, as have reviewed the reports of
the grand jury submitted to our Circuit
Judge at the different terms of our
court, as I have contrasted the sug-
gestions and declarations contained in
said reports with the uncertainty of
punishment for crime, and some of
them [ disliked and thought undue,
and so think even now. For instance,
charging our Justices of the Peace in
the county with the serious fraud of
getting up little petty foolishness in
their courts and allowing them to COM
promise with view only of getting
their cost, and some other declarations
similar to this; but l write this brief
article for two purposes: First, to COM
pliment our last grand-jury on the
even tenor of their report, as DELHI
crate expression of important facts
and needs. l believe with them that
we minor judges, as rule, are too
lenient with breakers, when COM
pared with the advance being made
along the line of judicial warfare
against crime by our juries and higher
courts. The lines have moved up in
our county and it remains for us J. P.'s
to keep pace or prove unworthy.
1t never was in my nature to delight
in punishment, but rather to pity the
unfortunate in their troubles; SO l
have done a deal of conservative work
as preventative rather than cure,
and am still willing to play the mis-
sionary, conserve the peace and pre-
vent crime; but my second purpose in
penning this article is to be heard in
solemn notes of warning to transgres-
sors, for 1 declare it as my full de-
termination to move up to the adj
vanced lines and apply the cold steel of
the law, as fully and completely as de-
served in every caSe-nO more, no Less
and [ suggest to our corps of j. P.'s,
let's allow no cause for complaint
against us, but come fully up to the
front, and help the good work of ex-
terminating crime along in these
day d4saJyss-w#hhs when the gallows is in order.
Now do notadammit nor do believe
that any of us has been intentssson ally
recreant to our trust, even, but tbs
fight is on, and being pressed bard,
let's measure up six feet with good
conscience and apt judgments hoping
for telling rewards.
Respectfully,

Summer Normal for COlored Teachers.
The colored normal which was held
at Brookhaven last summer has borne
splendid fruit in the better equip
ment of the colored teachers of this
county. These Normals offer prac-
tical and efficient help to our colored
teachers, and the very best opportunity
for impressing upon them the truths
that will tend to uplift their race and
enable them to maintain peaceful and
harmonious relations with their
friends, the white people of this
country.
The State Supt. has expressed
willingness to locate one of the colored
nprmals here this summer if we will
assist him by raising supplementary
fund for expense of conducting the
normal We therefore earnestly re-
quest all who are friends of the cause
of education to assist US in securing
this normal.
Albert Blue and P. D. Gallage are
authorized to solicit contributions for
this fund. Respectfully,
