Convicted for Killing Slave Fourteen
Years Ago.

The Once-celebrated and long prouacted case
of the State of Alabama as. Francis j. Cobia
for whipping a slave to death, was at length de
cided, about two weeks since, in the Circuit
Court of Henry county, at Euiqla.
More than fourteen years ago in February,
1914, in Barbour county, John, slave of Dr.
Alexander p. Crawford was most brutaly
whipped to death. The prisoner, who was then
Dr. Crawford's overseer, being, Immediately
after the whipping, and while John was vet
alive, charged with it, and threatened with a
prosecution, fed from the neighborhood Two
wears after, he was arrested by Mr.. Thomas
Cargile in the city Of Montgomery. passing un.
der the name of Boyd; and being brought back
to Barbour county, the grand jury at the spring
term, 1916, found a true bill against him for
murder. The venue was soon changed to Henry
county, where the prisoner had formerly lived
and where he had some relatives and many
friends and trial being had at the spring
term, iS49 before the Hon. Samuel Chap.
man, he was found guilty of murder. and
sentenced to the penitentary for ten Years
the Jury, however, emitting in their verdict
to ascertain the degree of the murder On
account of this omission, the Judgment was re-
versed by the Supreme Court, and the prisoner
remanded for another trial Various continu-
ances were had sometimes at the instance of
the State, ana sometimes at Inat OF the prisoner.
In the mean time, the defendant having OBJ
tanned bail, married in respectable family, and
had several children. The protracted ordeal
through which he had passed, the interest felt
in the family to whose fate he had singuarly
linked his own, and the influence of a prudent
and correct department on his part, excited a
sympathy in his behalf so strong as apparently
to set at defiance, and, in the opinion of every
body, to put conviction out of the question
The inevitable hour at length, however, roll.
ed around, and the trial commenced. The draw.
ing of the jury consumed a day and half So
many had fixed opinion as to the guilt or in
nocence of the accused, that only five were Sc
lected out of the original hundred, and the other
seven were obtained from an additional eighty
who had to be summoned
The testimony was brief DR.. Crawford, the
main witness for the State, and who testified on
the first trial, having died years ago, proof of
his evidence was given by one of the Jurors who
sat upon the former trial The defence offered
no testimony but the good character of the prs-
oner, and the bad character Of the negro.
The jury, about four o'clock Saturday even
ing, having retired and deberated about three
hours and half, returned verdict of man
slaughter in the first degree, with a unanimous
recommendation of the prisoner to mercy.
So intense was the feeling and so high the
excitement manifested by the people, that the
Judge, when the jury came in, and before the
verdict was announced, declared from the bench
that he would rigidly punish any man who might
hiss or applaud.

BRITISH SHIPPING.

A correspondent of the London Shipping
Gazette calls attention to the present depressed
condition of British shipping. He says:
/" More than one-third of the tonnage in the
ports of London and Liverpool are living unem-
ployed, and in Calcutta Bombay Madras, Sin
gapore, and China there are upwards Of zoe, 600
tons of British shipping lying idle. The value
of ships has deprecated within the last two years
90 per cent. Ship-building at the outports is al
most suspended, and thousands of carpenters
and other artisans are unemployed and starving
vast numbers of master mariners, officers, and
seamen, are also idle, and in the greatest dis
treSs.'
The reason for this, he argues. is that while
the foreigner enjoys the full benefit of their car
rying trade, Great Britain is virtually excluded
from the carrying trade of other countries. In
regard to the policy of the United States, he re-
marks
America excludes us from her coasting
trade, and which, from her extensive seaboard,
is of immense importance. A participation in
the carrying trade between New York, Boston,
New Orleans, and San Francisco would be in
valuable to our shipping, especially those. be-
longing to our North American colonies and
if anything will have a tendency TO discover
their connection with this country, it will be the
continued neglect Of our Government in pro-
curing for British and colonial shipping full re-
ciprocity from the United States. New Bruins
wick and Nova Scotia are almost dependent on
ship-building, and could compete successfully
with the American builders, but they are exclu-
ded from selling their ships in the United States,
although that great Republic can sell her ves-
sells in any British port, free of duty; and our
own ship-buiders having to pay a heavy duty
for timber, gives the American builder protec-
ton as against the British ship-builder 50 that
not only our ship-owners, but our ship-builders,
are subject to ruinous and unfair competition
with the United States. This state Of things
calls aloud for immediate remedial measures
He recommends the calling of meetings all
over the country Of ship-owners, seamen, and
others interested, asking Government to enforce
restrictions or prohibitions on those nations who
do not give them full and complete reciprocity,
and if that fails, they must thundera at the doors
Of Parliament

taxation, which fall with such peculiar, unbro-
ken pressure upon the South
Whatever hope was of late. entertained by
Senator Hammond, and partaken OF by ourselt,
that a great battle could not only be fought and
won on the substantial merits of Slavery as a
moral and industrial institution but eren ICON an
the Union, has been dashed by events which
have happened and the crisis which has arrived
since his Beech Island and Barnwell speeches.
In fact these events point directly to that other
exigency contemplated and defined by him,
that when Anti-Slavery and Tariff aggressions
both concur to endanger and PROSTATE us. we
must give up the Government under whose
sanction they are about to be perpetrated. AS
this exigency, from present developments, must
now inevitably come within two wears, we ac-
cept it as of present warning and pressure. 1t
advances upon us like the insidious and fatal
access of our epidemic, and, unless its spring
Is met III advance of its concentrating hold, its
effects may be as swift as terrible. That twelve
millions of people, blessed with the intelligence
and manhood of white civilization, sustained by
boundless and extraordinary resources, possess
ed of an imperial domain, exerting a powerful
influence over the industry and interests of the
civilized world, should lack the energy to strike
a blow for the defence of their very hearth
stones, TO repudiate with scorn vassalage to
1ankeedOm, and to resume and MAINTAIN thes
own selfgovernment for their own prosperity,
independence, and power, is not within our
comprehension We are ready to strike it now
no,c that we believe it to be both necessity and
poIicy-and to do it in the form of formal and
prompt severance of the South and North.
In the next House of Representatives, there
will be from fifteen to twenty ajOrity on the
part of the Black Republicans and Anti-Le
comptonites, who are essentially Anti-Slayery.
Kansas will be admitted as a free State and
carry into the Senate two Free-SOil Senator's
So will Oregon. The changes in that body, re-
sulting from the late elections, will all be ad-
verse to the Administration and the cause ofthe
South. 1t is question whether, on any matter
of Importance to the latter, there will not be an
opposition majority. Even General Shields, of
Minnesota, will rank among them.
We are aware that il is comparatively useless
to urge any plan or line of action, until the
minds and hearts of the people are ripe for it.
Yet the results which will render it necessary
must be regarded in time to instruct and arouse
them. We have shown a sufficiency of facts
and reasons to justify1our declaration, even at
this time, that a Southern Confederacy will also
be necessary and inevitable.
