| Sixty of the Penitentiary
transports, hired to Mr. Bibb, lately at work on the Covington &
Ohio Railroad, have been brought back
within the last few days and lodged in the institution. Yesterday
eighty of those hired to Rosser & Co. were expected to arrive in
the city. These prisoners can be employed to great advantage in any
works of defence proposed to be erected around and near this city. |
