DEATH SCENE OF THE Hon. RoBT. RAN
ToUL-The Hon. Horace Mann, in his
culogy on the lamented Rantoul, related
the following touching. instance of conJu-
gal affection in connection with the last III
ness OF the deceased
yet Nh Rantoul even amid the agonies
of his disease, had lucid intervals. There
were convictions in his mind so deep sea-
ted, ard affections in his heart so strong,
as to stand unmoved by any tempest OF
delirium. On being teIegraphcd re8pcc-
ting the illness of her husband, his devoted
and excellent lady, then in Massachusetts
hastcned to his succor. She arrived here
at o'clock on the morning of the day he
died Instantly her voice wooed back,
consciousness and reason. lie seized her
hand in his, and held it until he brcathcd
his last. Even when his mind wandered
this grasp of affection was clenched. Death
only relaxed it,
The swelling of the disease had closed
his eyes, and it was beyond the power of
muscular contraction TO open them. lie
desired to have them opened by mechanl-
cal means; that he might once more behold
the features and the face whence, for more
than twenty years the light OF love had
shone down into his heart. Thank God,
sir, that, amid all the alterations and
strifcs and hoStiities which seem sometimes
to flow out of the human bosom as though
it were their natural fountain, there are al
SO affections, sympathies, tenderness and
loves which are inseperable from it; allied
to it by more congenial affinity, and
which we always may find there, close as
green to the verdant leaf, or color to the
rose"

The wife of CuIlahan, so brutally cut
up on Friday night, al Section 10 of the
Steubenyille Railroad, by her husband,
noticed by Yesterdays Herald, has been
conveyed to the 4udrmary.' The report
is, that she will, although stabbed in l3
different places, most likely recover. Her
husband is now in jail-and shows some
evidence Of penitence. His reason for
this inexcusable act, was iealousy-and
while in a passion, sought revonge-in-
tending to have it, and then put an end to
his own existence. In evidence of this,
when caught, it was found that lie had
made slight gash on his own throat 1t
was not very serious one however
probably the first cut satisfied him that it
was more serious matter to die after that
fashion than he at first supposed.

T,etter from Crist.

The Supreme Court of Alabama has al
frmed the Judgment in the case OF CTlS''
the younr man sentenced to death at Mo-
bile for the murder of fellow-trayeler'
while lodging at hotel in that city
Crist has published an address to the cit
izens of Mobile, protesting that he is in
nocent, but admitting that the jury were
in duty bound, with the evidence brought
before them, to bring in the verdict they
did. He contends, that he can establish
his innocence, if a new trial be granted
him, and procecdsto to bewai his awful con-
dition in the following style:
How sudden, how fearful, is the change
which has come upon me! But a few
months ago, was enriched with all that
makes life desirable-an aifectiOnate wife
and child, friends, health, and peace, COM
petence, good name; the past unregret-
led, the future sure; and now, my por-
lion is the gloomy dungeon-the bitter
pangs of self-rcproach-the whips and
stings of remorse-the slow tortures OF
suspense-fears tha! chill the blood.

conclusion, call upon you to deal justly
and mercifully with me, if not for my sake,
for my lamenting family. | might speak
to you Of the gloom that this unfavorable
verdict has spread among large cir
Gle of relatives and friends, of the an
guish of my heart-broken wite--of the
Withering blight which will fall upon my
innocent chiid--of the deep unmoying
shadow which has fell upon our once hap
pvand cheerful hearts. BY all that makes
lie sweet to you, take not mine away un-
der the veil injustice lightly; but the good
name which is the immediate Jewel OF
YOUR souls; by the sunshine that beams
from old familiar faces; by the kisses Of
your children, which perhaps are yet warm
upon your lips, close not the gate OF mer-
cv upon your fellow-man. There are
some clements in the present case which
must deepen those emotions OF love that

laws TO whom the world and the worlds
laws are alike hostile, whose life is war
fare against society, whom the industry
of others support, and whose daily food
is guilt, whose hardened face is stamped
with guilt; but on the other hand, my
life has been irrcproachable from myyoutIl
upwards. Ihaye been respected, indus
trious, temperate and trustworthy; my
position in life has been humble, and one
of duly toll, my days have glided by in
Tranquil industry, and the sleep of limo,
cenee has nightly visited my pillow, and
has given to society those pledges which
are ever most atIectionate in restraining
lawl, SIS impulses. The strong and sweet
ties of domestic life were wound round
me to draw me to what was just and good,
and withhold me from what was evil; but,
alas, have been branded with curse
that will forever mark me as, an object o.
distrust, and feel myself an outcast, and
forever barred out from my much beloved
wife and child.
