OF ear State. Unless this is done the iptoronon
VIE be that there is a tacit approval Of tba
deed among the people.
There seems to be an idea PREVAILING with
some men that the commission of a rroat cr;,,o a

solely from this fact; and on the most vague
suspicion, 1t seems, instead of positive proof
Two days had elapsed from the burning of tho
buildings to the time Of the hanging. during
all OF which time the negro was working a.
usual on the farm, apparently unsuspectinp
Ample time Was therefore allowed for his ar
rest, yet no effort of this kind was made i
appears. And now that the man has been
sent to eternity another party is under arrest
for the incendiarism.
Arson is a fearful crime, but neonla ,vbo
