The execution of Gurley, says the
Memphis appeal, was ordered on the
conviction of military commission,
which convicted him two years ago He
was a regular officer in the Confederate
army, and after conviction was ex-
changed and served the Confcderaoy.
He was regularly surrendered, paroled,
and took the amnesty oath. His arrest
and execution for the morder of McCook
at this late day would, we think, be a
most disgraceful transaction 98 9aa

From Georgia.

MILLEDGEvIL1E, GA, Dec. 15.-Gov-
ernor Jenkins in his address to the
Legislature said there is no conflict
between the constitution of the United
| States aud the constitution of the State
of Georgia The laws of the United
| States are supreme. The Governor than
pays a handsome tribute TO the good
| conduct Of the slaves during the war.
| He saws they must be protected in their
| person and property, and have the right
to enter the courts. They should oe en-
| couraged to-work, AMI then they would
! be the best working class, and their late
masters the best employers, in the world.
The Governor then reviewed the condi-
ton of the State institutions, am says
for a time the light taxes will be
burdensome. u a 2 AZ kak
He thinks in the end the people will
not suffer He concluded his address
with an earnest prayer that God would
help US all. AT the close of the address
Governor Johnson handed the zeal OF
State of Georgia to Governor, jenkins,
who took tbs oath of office, and was
then declared by the President of the
Senate, Governor of the State. The
State Legislature adjourns to morrow.
RoBBsRx OF $4,000 AT RocKPoRr,
IED.-On the 18th of November the store
of G. H. Balsoy, in Rockport, Ind, was
burglariously entered, the safe broken
op N, and $l4 900 stolen, including over
$500 in gold and silver. In addition to
the money stolen, the thieves got bar
Of silver weighing one hundred and elev
en- ounces. The thieves then made their
escape and a reward Of $1,000 was. Of
fered for their apprehension. Time
wore on and hopes of catching the daF-
ing robbers were nearly abandoned,
when some of the officers of Rockport
found buried in Indiana the bar of silver
which bad been sto Gu from the store of
Mr. Balsby and about $1,000, including
some $500 in gold.
Certain facts were brought to light |
which went to implicate Glenn. Crawley |
as being one Of The parties concerned in
the robbery. He was traced from Rock
port, Indiana, to Lebanon, KY, to which |
place the officers repaired, and on Wed |
nesday night they arrested Crawley at |
that place and brought him to this city, |
and he was confined in our county jail |
yesterday. The proof against Crawley |
is said to be be very strong, and when
the entire facts are brought to light sew
eral other partieswill be implicated in this
daring robbery. We have other infor-

rest, but at the request of the officers we

Another virginia Electas.

The public have been apprised of the fact
that the vigilant military authorities at Rich
mond, Virginia, have set aside the municipal
elections IN that city, loyal voters h Av;ne been
excluded from the polls because of nok. resi-
dence while iE TIE service of their country.
AaosAer instance of disloyal sentiment has
been afforded recently in the corporation
election held at Winchester, Virginia, where
the votes of loyal men were rejected because
they had, in 1852, refused to PAY tax Levied
BY the rebel council Of the se~n. An sAs
commissioners Of election had keen identified
with the rebel Cause, and While they sought,
ly every psetsxt, - disfiaschiss lo5al citi-
sens, they freely admitted the votes Of men
who had resigned positions under the United
States Government to join in the rebellion, ot
paroled rebel prisoners of war, and Of ali.
indeed, who belonged to or sympathized with
the d9minNRt side,
lisheartened BY the course of events, The
loyal men Of Virginia have il In contemplation
70 withdraw altogether RON contests under
the enlarged right of suffrage, which can have
the effect only of presenting them in hope
less minority, deemiug it preferable to await
the action OF the administration and Congress
for that relief which it is possible to obtain.

1t seems part of the vocation of the
stool-pigeons' employed by the Copper
head leaders to get articles to order, with a
list of soldiers signatures appended. And It
happens by mistake or design that these sif.
natures are frequently forgerisa os tssads, q
appears ksm tas communications which We
daily publish over the signatures of the SOL
diers, whose names have been thus suzrepsi-
tiously used. But it is All Of piece that the
parties who seek to betray the soldiers To the
CopperheAds, and thus sslsy the Air fAme
they acquired while fighting against rebels,
should resort to forgeries and frauds to ac
