The Grand Jury.

The Grand Jury returned mo true
bill' in the charges against Mayor j
f. Brownlow which were sent up from
ESQ. Frank Smith court. This action
is not surprising to those who knew the
fiimsy basis of the charges sud the mo-
tive that inspired the m, and while Mr..

posed of all matters brought before them

Robert Armstrong and Rufus Evans,
charging them with assault to commit
murder in the first degree and malicious
stabbing, and against Jim Addison and
MARCEL Rsyburn, charging grand lar
ceny.
