Executive Pardons I'm virginia.

Governor Peirpoiut, of Virginia, has,
in compliance with a requirement of
the State Constitution, transmitted to
the Legislature list of the pardons
and reprieves issued by him during the
past year, and the reasons therefor.
From his report it appears that of the
persons pardoned seventy were white
and twenty colored. There wss one
communication of the penalty of death to
imprisonment in the Penitentiary, two
reprieves and twenty-one pardons in
cases of misdemeanor, the rest being
for crimes and offences of a higher
grade. The Governor states that while
he had observed in former times that
juries were inclined to give a prisoner
the benefit of every reasonable doubt,
and the tendency was to acquit, his
present observation is that in a majori-
ty of cases the contrary disposition pre-
walls. This he ascribes to the influence
ofthe late war, in which ''little respect
was paid to private rights, either by
othcials or private individuals" He
says: NV
1--WE have had an unprecedented
number of convictions, most of them
for petty offences, there being only two
convictions for murder during the past
year. 1t is in the cases of these petty
offences principally that appeals have
been made. 1 have deemed II my duty
to examine, with all the care that /
could, into the character of these Of
fences, and to pardon only in such
cases as deemed meritorious. Who
ever has been called on to exercise the
pardoning power frequently finds him
self in most trying circumstances if he
desires to do right. No executive can
always give a satisfactory reason on
paper for his action in many OF these
cases, while he acts under a sense of
justice and has heart to feel. Great
complaint has been made through the
press of the State on account of the
number of pardOns granted. have
seen number of instances where the
editors of these papersS have underta-
Ken TO assign the reasons for pardons.
have never, as yet, in single in
stance, seen the true reason assigned,
even when that reason was Endorsed
upon the papers to which their report
ers had access; and ] am satisfied that
IL has been no part of the object of the
press to give true information TO the
country upon the subject. Efforts have
been made through the press to induce
the public to believe that was only
exercising executive clemency toward
colored convicts, when the fact is. that
the colOred convicts pardoned are not
in the proportion of one to three TO the
white persons pardoned.

WASHINGTON, Eel

"Katy and the ChiIdren.''
WASHINGTON, Feb. 16.
The first meeting of the Congression-
al Temperance Society was held to-
night in the hall of the House of Rep
resentatives. The galleries were not
only densely crowded, but many were
unable to obtain even standing room
inside, and, therefore, remained at the
doors. -.- s..s ....
The seats on the floor We're occupied
by members of Congress and others,
accompanied by ladies. Senator
Wilson presided, and spoke at the
opening OF the meeting, explaining the
objects of the society. which We're to
put away from its members forever the
Intoxicating cup and to commit them
selves and all they Swere to the holy
cause of temperance.
Representatives Price, of Iowa, and
Mckee and Senator Yates, of Illinois,
also spoke. The latter created a good
deal of amusement by giving his ex-
perienco. He said he had been addicted
to ardent spirits, but claimed no credit
for it,. His spreeS had been not ''lOng
but loud" The prairie did not furnish
room enough for him when he made
forward movement. lGreat laughter
The great commonwealth of Illinois
had, for twenty-five years, honored
him in all public positions, and he had
now promised that State, and all who
loved him-Katy and the children
that he would never more touch, taste
or handle the unclean thing. He intend
ed to fight it out on that line to the last
hour of his existence. He would, to-
night, as soon think of drinking fire as
whisky, for the latter was hell and
damnation. He was as proud of hnv-
ing taken the pledge as he was of his
wife and children, and this was the
strongest expression he could make as
to his sincerity.
Ten girls from the house of Little
Wanderers, at New York, in charge of
MI. Van Meter, here entered the hall,
and having been ranged at the clerks
desk, sung in plaintive and effective
style, several songs, including "Father,
Come home," with much applause.
Representatives Woodbridge, of Yer
mont, and Dodge, of New York, next
addressed the meeting.
Various persons called for the read
ing of the names, and they were given
by him, both Senators and Representa-
tives:

There Is no turning backward on LIES track
Dead JOYS are soulIess, and are best forgot
Here is my picture as you knew me once:
I have outgrown you; you have lain be-
While round me raging storm and hey
And have learned to love the storm and
The a battle with the warring wind and ebb-
Not all IN vain, my soul, for daring strength
plead and cried.
The flutes soft note wound out and in your
Ha1r Ta5eed, your feet slide in the dreamy
Nor iet the worlds heroe tramp your pleas
urtng alloy.
But I, who, as a woman, it would seem,
should for my tenderer feet have trod the
Havesought through burning sands the cac-
And scaled the nights where gush the
springs of lasting day.
a time there was when, with my wings un-
You might have bound me with your light
You slipped the leash, a and freed from silken
thrall,
You call with silken, Turing tongue to me
in vain.
You cannot tempt with simple milk my lips,
Which deep and long have drank of LIES
Your wrath seems paiiid with its spring tide
While for my brows these scarlet autumn
leaves tw1ne.
Go. dream alone your dreams of vanished
youth ts.-. .a..-.-.
cannot fancy flame where only ashes fire.
Your gaze is backward to the setting moon
Mine forward TO the mornings herald,
rising star.
