Execution of the Hughes Mur
derers.

Goetz, Case and Aulgus, the mur-
derers of James Hughes, suffered
the extreme penalty of the law al
Cincinnati on Tuesday of last week
The course of the law in this case
has been sure and speedy. Hughes
was killed on the 7th of February,
and in less than three months his
murderers have been tried, convicted
sentenced and executed. Just as
the trap door fell, Geetz exclaimed,
"heads up, boys, let's die like men. y
To which Aulgus replied, ''we will
do that, George" And Case said,
81 want to die at just two o'clock
in time for the train" We cannot
but regret a state of society which
makes hanging necessary, but ex-
perience has taught US, that the in.
Fiction of the death-penalty is the
surest, if not the only remedy for the
prevention of crime and the protec
ten of society.

WASHINGTON.

The adjournment of Congress has
left Washington comparatively quiet.
The coming on of the warm season
will soon make it dull. The crowd
of office seekers has partially dis
persed, and A. j. has at length few
hours Of quiet, undlsturbed even by
visions of impeachment and suspen-
sion from Office. So many of the
members of Congress are making
preparations for extensive summer
tours in search of health and pleas,
ure, that in all probability the spe-
cial session in July will be thinly at
tended, and ne business but a meet
ing and adjournment transacted. II
will be we'll for country and for Con-
gress to enjoy season of rest from
the constant political agitation, to
which both have been subjected for
the past few years.

: Senator Wilson.

Senator Wilson addressed crowd
at the African Church in Raleigh, N.
c., last week. He was followed by
two negroes, who made eonserv alive
speeches. Truth is stranger than
fiction. Senator Wilson, an original
Massachusetts, abolitionist, address
ing a colored audience in a city and
State where few years ago his life
would not have been safe, and
stranger still, eolored men allying
themselves with their old masters
against one who for years has been
the avowed champion of their race
The world moves and time works
some strange changes. The Senator
will continue his trip until he has
made the tour of the Southern States.
We shall be glad to see other premi-
nent men of the North visit the
South and talk with the people can
didly and openly as does Senator
Wilson. A better knowledge and
understanding BY the two sections of
each others character and views will
operate favorably in fastening the
restoration of good feeling and har-
mony throughout the country.

H The Houston (Texas) Tele-
graph tells of North Carolina plant
er, rich and happy before the war,
who was despoiled during the war of
silver and gold and bonds, of negroes
and cattle and personal property
generally. But instead of foolish
denunciation of the so-called uncon-
stitutional acts of Congress, this
man went to work to reconstruct in
the following sensible manner. The
Telegraph says:
He walked not the porticoes of his
stately mansion cursIng the Yam,
KEGS and signing over split milk
This good old North Carolina gen.
tleman wents to work; he employed
surveyors with log and chain, and
carpenters with hammers. He dIvid-
ed up his estate Tito farms of one
hundred acres and less, and built
snug little cottages upon every farm.
He then went to the North and hunt
ed up good, industrious families,
mostly foreigners, and upon every
farm he settled one of these families.
Unto some he sold, but unto most he
rented for share of the crop. He
also started store on the premises,
and one of his handsome sons is
connterhopper. BY this means, he
writes US, his income has been raised
to a figure higher than it ever attain
ed before the war, and his lands
have suddenly been increased 500
per cent, in value.

Public Debt.

The public debt, on the 3ist OF
August 1865, reached its highest
point, being then in round numbers
S2,S46,O00.000. On the lst ofApril,
1867, the statement showed an out
standing Indebtedness of 50, 1868, ,0Oo,-
00O,-a reduction in nineteen months
Of about S1S3,0O0,000, or an aver
age of near ten millions per month
Surely with an economical admins
tration of the government, there
need be no fear of that national ruin
and bankruptcy which the creakers
of the Democratic party are so con-
stantly predicting.

PHENoMENoN.-We are informed
by our friends living near Kelley's
Mills, that the waters of Little Pine,
have undergone q great change in
the last few weeks. The stream has
always been muddy and turbid, but
for some cause the waters have re-
Gently become very clear; so that,
now. in places where the depth is ten
or twelve feet, the smallest objects
can be seen at the bottom. There
must be some very important radical
change, since the fish have all died,
or are fast dying. The herses in the
vicinity, have refused to drink of the
water. There has as vet been no
light to suggest the philosophy of
all this.-Iroatoa Register.
EN- Gen. Sheridan in following
out his policy, has amended the
State law of Louisiana requiring
members of the Police force to have
been residents of the city five years,
and orders Mayor Hatch to remodel
the force. The General has also in
terfered in the quarrel between the
Governor and the Legislature, in re-
gard to the disbursement Of the Levee
bonds, abolished all the existing
Boards of Levee Commissioners, and
appointed a new Board for dlstribu
ting the money. Gen. Grant has
sent him a dispatch to the effect
that his Interpretation Of the disfran-
chisement law must stand until over
ruled BY the Attorney General.
Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe is in
Brooklyn on a brief visit. She in
tends to make Florida her perme-
nent home. having bought property
in that State. She has become
member of the Episcopal Church
1t is scarcely violating the sancity of
private affairs to state that the later
days of Mrs. Stoves life are cleuded
by deep sorrow for the tragic
death of her sons, but she sustains
her Affections by q genuine piety
that finds vent in verse and prose.
The City Railroad Co., of Charles
ton, S. c., having opened its cars to

Gen. Sickles has addressed a con-
gratulatory letter to the President of

ton of the Southern people to accept
in good faith the legitimate conse-
quences of emancipation.
The operation performed on the
poor little Prince Imperial, must
have been a terrible one. His leg
was disarticulated at the knee joint
which means that the lower joint was
removed from its socket-so as to
enable the surgeons to directly reach
the cause of the malady from which
he has suffered so much. He is now
recovering rapidly.

re- A writer in the Jacks

w A writer in the Jackson
Standard, in some remarks upon the
organization known as the "Grand
Army of the Republic" closes with
the following thrust:
In conclusion l will say, we ex-
pect the Democrats, as party, to
oppose, as they have opposed and
will oppose everything that might
result in good to the country. They
opposed the "Grand Army of the
Republic while it was fighting
Democratic rebels, and they will still
oppose it, though it be engaged in
performing acts of charity. They
would rather send bread to stout
lazy rebels in the South than to give
it to the helpless widow and orphans
of soldiers of the "Grand Army OF
the Republic" who fell defending
their worthless lives and valuable
property.

Registration in the District OF
Columbia.

When the registration under the
recent act of Congress was com
menced-in Washington City, the con-
servative whites refused to register
They were too aristocratic to have
their names entered in the same lists
with black men. The result was
that the completion of the registra
ton showed about one thousand ma
jority of colored voters. Our Con
seryative friends, finding that they
have put their foot in 1t, now de
mand a re-opening of the lists and
permission to register. This tht
registers refuse, and resort is to bt
had to the courts to settle the diff

H The misery brought upon the
South by the rebellion is forcibly
portrayed in the following letter
from the widow of a rebel soldier in
Wilson County, North Carolina, to

Mr.. Holden: l am a poor soldiers

MY husband was censcripted, drag
ged off to the war and killed. He

home The place where I live has
been sold, and ! am to be turned out
of doors, and where TO go to l know
not. have no money and scarcely
nothing to eat. My work will not

friend to ask you what to do. My
