Ha A reverend doctor of Georgia has
rather slow delivery, which was the occa-
sion of an amusing scene in the chapel of
the Lunatic Asylum. He was preaching,
and illustrating his subject by the case of
a man condemned to be hung, and reprieved
under the galows. He went on to describe
the gathering of the crowd, the bringing
out Of the prisoner, his remarks under the
gallows, the appearance of the executioner,
the adjustment of the halter, the prepare.
tion to let fall the platform, and just then
the appearance in the distance of the dis.
covered courier, the jaded horse, the waving
handkerchief, the commotion in the crowd.
At this thrilling point, when every one was
listening 10 breathless silence, the doctor
became little proiix. One of the lunatics
could hold in no longer; he arose in the
congregation, and shouted, "Hurry, doctor,
for mercy's sake, harry! They'll hang the
man before you get therep

charge to the jury, in the case of Elm
Crunch, for stealing: ..

Then Judge Jonah Joles pronounced up
on Elm Crunch this sentence:
