,ruE.cnse Of n,an nsmed EIias NevilIe, Who

'rUE-case of a man named Elias Neville, who
has been found guilty of murder, before the
Superior Court of Halifax, North Carolina, is.
exciting some attention. 1t seemed that the
little son of the prisoner informed the father
that the deceased, man named Phillips, had
attempted to commit rape on his mother,
whereupou Neville, in ct of rage, sought out
Phillips and killed him. Evidence Of the at.
tempted rape was offered by the defence, but
ruled out by the Judge, and a number OF Wit
nesses were introduced, who showed the con,
fiicting nature of the evidence for the prosecu-
ton In spite of all this, the man had been
found guilty, and sentenced to die. Counsel for
the defence has appealed to the Superior Court
for a new trial, on the grounds already stated.
A correspondent of the Petersburg Express thus
forcibly comments on the law under which Ne
vile has been condemned:
.'If man strikes one with a stick or switch
splits in his face-slaps him-pushes him from
the sidewalk, strikes him with his list, and the
assaulted party draws knife or pistol and Kills,
it is only Inanslaughter; but if mans wife or
daughter, or sister, or mother, tells him, under
the deepest excitement and with every exhibit
ton of the most intense feeling of wrong and
disgrace that man has just seized hcI, thrown
her down, and violated her person IN the most
foul and savage manner, and that husband, or
father, or brother or son, instantly pursues the
brute and kills him, it is murder"
The general feeling in South Carolina seems
to be that Neville ought to be pnrdOned, if he
cannot obtain a new trial. The same writer
thus presents the contrast which this case
offers to that of Sickles, tried under the more
humane code of the District of Columbia
Keeping in view the force employed by Neville,
he says
"For killing such brutal and british ruff.
iian, Neville is guilty of murder. Sickles killed

The Virginin Election.
ITS COMING RESULT, AND ITS MORAL.
IProm the Pi,ssburrh Gazette.1

From the Pittsburgh Gazette
It is a blessing to know that the Virginia
campaign is nearly over, and also to know that
there is no doubt about the result. Goggin has
made very foolish fight superinduced, we
suppose, by its very deSpera tencSS, and after it
is over he and his friends should as we trust
they will, feel ashamed of the part they have
played in it. Instead Of fighting the democrat
ic party on the manly basis presented by John
N. Bolts, and attacking the administration i'll its
weak points, they turned all the batteries upon
the only point at " hich their enemy was i'm
pregnable. The struggle has been, throughout,
a mere strife about slavery. These Southern
men are always reproducing the North for agi-
tating the Slavery question; and yet we find
that both in Virginia and Kentucky the leading
and absorbing question is Slavery. The candi-
dates talk little about anything else, and they
have proved themselves, SO far, the most persist
ent agitntors the country has yet seen. The
strife, however, is not between an Antl-SlaVcry
candidate and a ProSlavcry candidate, (there
would be some sense in that) but n strife as
to which Of two Pro Slavery candidates can
out-Ierod the other. In Virginia, I.etcher
declares he has rcpented of all lis anli-slave-
Try notions. GOggin retOrtS that he never
had any to repent of. Letcher is for Democracy
because Democracy is pro-slavery. GOggin is
against Democracy because it isn't pro slavery
enough. Letchers only anxiety is that the pub
lie shall understand him to be more ultra.
slavery man than Goggin; and Goggin's only
fear is lest the people shall not understand him
to be more ultra-slavery man than Letcher.
In word, Goggin is actively climbing Letcher's
platform, and Letchcr firmly planting himself
on Goggin's The result is easily foreseen. The
Virginians, with the true instinct, will trust the
democrat, on the Slavery question, in preference
to the other. 1t is natural that they should;
and Letcher, Of course, will be triunphantly
elected.
The result would have been the same had
Goggin taken the advice of Bolts and planted
himself firmly upon the ground Of opposition
to the 1cholc course of the National Admins.
ttation-itS extravaganza, its corruption, and its
devotion to Slavery propagandism Upon that
basis he wonld have secured an overwhelming
defeat, of course, but not a more disastrous one
than that which is now in store for him; and
he would, besides earning the esteem aud re.
gard of good men everywhere, North and South,
have laid the foundations of party worthy of
redeeming Virginia from her enthrnlmrnt, and
eventually capable OF accomplishing it.
