''Oh yes, my dear father, all: oh, for
give all, and make your peace with
hcaven.'
The gentlemen present knelt in solemn
prayer for the weeping parent and ago
nizcd child, Afterwards they proposed
to leave them alone for little while, and
thus addressed the father:
"Arthur, the world has condemned YOU
as no longer fit to live. 1t has been re-
ported that you said, that if YOU could
get hold of your son YOU would kill him
We shall now give you an opportunity of
showing the world that you are not the
heartless wretch you are reported to be. -
With face sufused in tears. he c'asned
him TO his bosom, exclaiming, My dar-
ling: my darling. would not injure a
hair of your head
They remained alone an hour, during
which the most tender manifestations of
affection were interchanged the son
never relaxing bis arm from his father S
neck. The gentlemen re entered the cell
and found them calm; the son apparently
having exhausted all his means to bring
about the much desired confession, and
the father soothingly promising to do
everything that lay in his power to CRAFTY
his unhappy boy, bat maintaining the
most unwavering fi1nness in reference to
the grand point at issue-the innocence
Of his son.
1T closing the interview, the father re-
quested him to cut off lock Of hair to
take to his poor orphan daughters. The
poor youth performed the operation with
trembling agony, while scalding tears fell
upon the head of the father.

ly The position which has been consistently

That is the extreme Southern Rights cs-
