he fought the mob with great desperation,

over-powered, and left suspended between

Charles anderson was the last victim
He was heard to beg for the privilege Of
praying, but this request was refused, and
he was hung at the southwest corner Of

The Virginia Judges.-Since the rul-
ing of Judge Underwood in the case of
Caesar P Griffin, who shot young Brock
enbrough in Lexington, Virginia, there is
considerable discussion relative to the case
of Jeter Phillips. If Judge Shelley, who
tried Griffin is disqualified, SO, it is ar
gued, is Judge Christian, before whom
Jeter Phillips was tried. In connection
with the Phillips case the Richmond Dis
patch says that there is reason to believe
that a writ of haheas corpus will be applied
for early the present week. The counsel
will probably at least petition the Cover
nor to respite Phillips until the question of
he right Of Virginia judges to hold their
courts is'defnitely determined. Next Fri
day is the day fixed for the execution of
Phillips.
