The main features of the conditions prescribed are that the Lena be taken to the Mare Island navy yard and there disarmed by re? moval of small guns, breech blocks of large guns, small arms, ammunition and ordinance stores and such other dismantlement as may be prescribed by the commandant of the navy yard : that the captain give a written guar? antee that the liena shall not leave San Francisco until peace shall have been concluded ; that the officers and crew shall be paroled not to leave San Francisco until some understanding as to their disposal may be reached be? tween the United States government and both the belligerents; that after disarmament the vessel may be remov? ed to a private dock for such reason? able repairs as will make her sea? worthy and preserve her in good con? dition during her detention, or may be so repaired at the navy yard if the Russian commander should so elect; that while at a private dock the com? mandant of the navy yard at Mare Island shall have custody of the ship and the repairs shall be overseen by an engineer officer to be detailed by the commandant and that when 30 re? paired, if peace shall not then have been concluded, the vessel shall be taken back, to the Mare Island navy yard and be there held in custody un? til the end of the war.

A special committee from the grand jury, consisting of J. E. McCnrchen, W. M. Reid and T. E. Davis to ex? amine the county offices reported in writing as follows : From the examination we have made of the county offices we find nothing special to report, further than the sys? tem of working the roads as practiced hy - allowing the work to be done in small jobs and the class of work done, thereby causing a useless expenditure of the public funds, by unscrupulous individuals. Also the practice of allowing com? mutation taxes to be received by vari? ous individuals, all of which should be paid to the county Treasurer, or the Sheriff's deputy and the Treasur? er's receipt issued fbr same. We would suggest that a suitable man be secured as read overseer for each township and all in addition to that work done by the chain gang, be superintended in person by him, and at "co time more than the income from the commutation tax in each township be expended upon the roads of the same ; it being the duty of the Super? visor to inspect the work before ap? proving same. Also to require an itemized statement with dates to be submitted by said overseer. A committee cf which L. V. Brown was chairman inspected the new iron bridge over Lynches River and reports that while the bridge appears to be a good one it is incomplete in some par? ticulars on account of some missing braces and the brick foundation upon which the ends of the bridge rest has yielded dangerously to the pressure, being badly out of plumb and sfiouid have alteration. This committee was informed by a member of the county board that the first payment on said bridge was being withheld on account of the missing braces. The same com mitteee visited the house and farm for the poor and report the farm partially under cultivation by a tenant and thc bouse needing underpinning and a new cover. Thanking your Honor and the Soli? citor for courtesies. Respectfully submitted, J. A. Rh ame, Foremai;. Runaway on Wain Street. There was a runaway on Main street Saturday. Two mules that were hitched to a light buggy suddenly be? came frightened, and dashed down Main street at full speed.

Very fortunately the women escaped without receiving any serious injuries. One wheel cf the buggy was smashed to pieces, but, otherwise, it was not badly damaged.
