Presentment of the Grand Jury. To His Honor Judiie George K. Prince, presiding Judge at the Spring term of Court Kershaw Co. We, the Grand Jury of Kershaw Co, desire to make fho following pr? soutment to Your Honor: We beve passed upon all bills giv en us by the Solicitor. With regard to certain of these bills, notably the bills of the Stat<' vs. Kitohen, Childers, and two casen vs. Kelly, sent up from tlie Magis trate's courts thereby entailing inueli expense to the county. Sue!* cases should be dispoeod of iu the Magis istrate's court With regard to the Jail we find the inside of it clean, but the out side premises need cleaning of tra-h and dirt. The water pipes carrying water to the Jail are uncovered and exposed to tbo heat of the sun. The drain pipe carrying the waste.from the Jail is frequently stopped up and nseless, rendering the sanitary condition very ?oor An exten sion of the pipe would remedy this. The matter of sewerage has been presented before and nothing baa been dons. Wc would therefore ask Your Honor to lay particular stress upon this matter and instruct us if the remedy is within our pro ' yioce. '? W'th regard to the Court House we fiuo the building clean and well ' kept and the offices in good shapo There is at present no light ib.the Court House, owing to the fact that,, there was a question - between the the last administration and the Light Oo. as to the purohase of a transform er on a pole in the street. The offi - ees have been subjected to great in convenience by tbe cutting off of the currant. Wo would* ask tba*'Y'?ur Honor take action in this atid order tbe Light Co to tarn on thjf current until Die matter shall have been ad justed in the Courts With regard to tbe Poor House (be buildings need repair on aocount of being too open and the inmates peed more bedding and covering; Otherwise they appear well cared for. With regard to the chain gang the eamp appears to be plean and in good order, but the convicts being at work at considerable dlstanoo their condition oould not be ob served; this will be suhjeot of later jreport. With regards to the roads we have bad a consultation with Mr. West, Supervisor, and we find that Buffalo township is the only town Ship io which the Township Boards have successfully performed the function* of their office by obtaining ? the necessary official* frDd overseers to work tbe roads. The committee on the examine tlon of books will report later on after proper inspection.

''She was most, fair and thereunto Her life did rightly harmonize; Keeling or thought Uiat Was not true Ne'er made less beautiful the blue Unclouded heaven of her eyes.
