The Commissioners' Court informs- us that they have taken steps to put it, immedi ately, in safe condition. It is impossible for a Grand Jury to investigate thoroughly the various County officers, but in' the limited time allowed for that business we would report as follows The Probate Judges books we find neatly kept.

We recommend that the valt be supplied with shelves made'of metal, also that the Treas urers' safe be transfered from the Probate Judge's office to bis own office, and that he be furnished with a larger safe, of sufficient size to contain the books kept for his office. r.

We have counted the cash and find the correct amount on hand. We rec ommend a change in the manner of keeping the cash accounts, as it is now, the Treasurer keeps all his cash accounts on the same hook, r.nd wa recommend that be be fuiiiisbe.i i a cash book for each of the accounts to-wit fine and forfeiture gene ml and special- A committee from our body investigated the Pauper House and farm acd. report everything neat ami io order.

Will Tanner the young white man from Cherokee county, who was confined in jail in Gadsden, was taken by Deputy Sheriff B. H. Melton to oirmingmim ana tirere turned over to an officer from Coalbnrg. He was convicted in the Cherokee county circuit court, but took an appeal to the supreme court and was brought to Gadsden jail for safe keeping. Al few days ago the news came that, the supreme court affirmed the decision of the circuit court.

So Tanner, in tbe custody of Mr. Melton, was car ried to Birmingham and turned over to an officer from' Coalbnrg last Thursday. But on the way to Coal-burg Tanner's two sisters held up the -officer and released him He took to the woods, hand cuffs on, and has not been beard of sicca. Fi nafly the officer overpowed the women and took tbem back to Birmingham where they are held in durance vile HOW IT HAPPENED. Jim Smith, a guard at Coalburg and deputy constable, started out from the Birmingham jail with Bill Tanner to carry him to Coalburg tn serve cut his eentence.

Tanner's sisters, Mesdames Kelly and Avery, went along with them and also a lit tie four-year old son of Mrs. Kelly. The party had gotton just outside of Birmingham; The prisoner was shackled and walkng and the constable rode a horse. The child got weary toddling along with the grown folks, and Bill Tanner carried bioi for a while. His arms were shackled, however, and it made him weary and he put the child down.

So they ent along for some time in thin shape. Then it sebms Tanner himself com plained of being tired and the constable consented for him to mount the horse. This he did and for a little while rode along with the boy on tbe horse behind bun. Then it. was that the opportunity came and was seized.

By soma pretext or other the'' wae from tha hore find Tah'ier Inff. on it. As soon an the child was tnhan from the hnrse Tauner dappled his heels to the horse's sides and hs went like a streak. At the same rn; ment his sisters suizad Smith by the coat and arms and rendered it hdn possible for him to shoot at or fol- low the escaping prisoner. The result is that Tanner effected bis escape and has not heard from, aud IVIesd-itrieH Avery and Kel ly ere in the oonnty jail at Birming hsm- Two charges are docketed against tbem viz.
