Address *11 communications to THE TRIBVBE WCAITORT, R. Ot - i. . ? <lndieUah?r. The more we see 4of (Judge Maher the more cause have we to congratulate this judicial circuit in the possession of so pure and upright a judge. The tone and the dignity that is given to the proceedings ol a court where the presiding judge iuspires confidence and commands respect by the courtesy and the ^fairness 01 his rulings are no where more apparent than where the ermine is worn sj unsulliedly. Bo longaa the bench is filled by such men, we can feel fortified in the attainment ot a higher degree of virtue and in the possession ol a more satisfied security. The Senatorshlp. in the coining contest for the Btate Benatorship it la understood that the Govern" or ia favorable to the candidacy of repressatative Myers, as being in every respect better fitted for the poeition than his competitor; and suroly our worthy Governor, sailed {to the helm of the 8hin -of State %i a time when nought but the beet etatesmanahip will suffice to guide it safe' lj amid and between th foaming breakers, should be allowed a& influential voice In the selection of those officials on whom he must principally depend to co-operate with him in the performance of his dif fault undertaking. Should the coming struggle for the Seeatorship result as we hope and think it will, in the defeat of the Ring, we shall regard it as a gratifying indication af program in the right direction. - Last Wednesday We issucda supplement of one column of the "Tribune*1 as an advertisement, containing three articles that we thought would attract attention. To our surprise one article on tue Past Indebtedness Fond created great excitement at the Court house, and attracted th e attention of the Grand Jury, who iuvesti gated the question of payments from the Fund and very properly endorsed thu action of the Couuty Commissioners. We were never so fully satisfied of the power of printers ink as when we discovered the consternation caused by our inoll'en sive article. We intended to insert itjn. our paper this week but have no room. The Tribune will be eularged on the Mth when we shall have more ?D?ce. till then our advertisers must pardon the aaai?doe of their cards, now crowded out. ' m?rr flMlSlMCJt of the Grand Jar/. To Sit Honor J. J. Maker, Judge of Soeond Circuit: The Grand Jury respectfully report that they find the Jail .in condition requiring some carpenter's -work, the win* dow of one cell is entirely iusecure and several doors are almost useless. The roof ateo requires immediate attention, ii now admits water in such quantities a.*. greatly impair the building and produce serious discomfort to the prisoners who are eompelled to occupy one side of the Jail. ,f There seemed to be all necessary regard for oleanliness and for tne kitchen arran gem en ts aad the food ahown to Us was of Mud oam.lit* The Poor riooM suggest* several improvements which might be made with advantage. For most obvious reasons a hospital and poor house should not be combined, particularly during theuuuimer months. tiecond, some arrangements should be made to make it aa much self outaming as possible. Of the 30 occupants the greater part proteased to have no relatives or connuuious to care /or them, still a large number are not altogether incapable of doing something for themselves sad the tune expended in running around could be better employed in cultivating a kitchen garden for the benefit of the establishment and lessen the expense. They seemed cheerful and said they were veil and abundantly fed, atttt we think the supply of blankets was scarcely sufficient for the requirements and the supply of wood .was entirely deficient and ui interior quality. '1 he (Join misssioners ass requested to look after this, and also sse that uone are admitted who are ndt entitled, especially citizens of other states. We ane also informed that supplies are sent to poor persons outside Of the building and in eo^ jn tancei, at ouie distance, 'i bis lis# to the personal knowledge of some of the Onuad Jury . lead to abuses, and they recommend it eh iff not be continued. At baring come to the knowledge of the Grand Jary tl>*t several colored citi zeus were ecrioosiy shot and injured in tbe village of Urabamvitte during a row which occurred between a militia com pany and citizens (alt of whom were ooiored) and during which there was a moat wanton use of firearms, they respectfully recommend that some steps be # taken to restrain such excesses and bring to punishment tile guilty parties. i no opinion of the liiiutd Jury being requested concerning certain payment: made by the County Commissioners It the County treasurer and tor .advertising beg to sav at* it appears upon inrestsga tion that the labor nas performed for tlu collection ot this fund lor past' indebted ulbs and the advertising mso pertaining to the name business, in their judgment the money ivss properly taken froui thai fund to pay its own expense b.
