1t has transpired that number of sherffs
appointed by General Candy for Virginia,
under the reconstruction acts. are defaulters
to the State in sums ranging from $4,000 TO
$4,000, which they collected, but are un
able to pay into the treasury; which should
surprise nobody, as these carpet tbaggers
generally 60 South on big steel, knowing
their days will be short, The pretext for
appointing such thieves as these sheriffs
have shown themselves to be, was that they
were loyal, while the resident sherifs, whom
they displaced, could not take certain
oath which but few reputable Southern peo
pie can take. But in Radical economy it is
better that loyal man should steal the
peoples substance than that a SO called rebe
should hold an Office.

ViOIators of Honor.

Let the good work go on, and instead
of using SO much rope let our citizens try
the game of burning at stake every black
and white man who can with heart vic.
late the honor and endanger the lie Of
any innocent, young and helpless wo.
man. There is not day that we unfold
our exchanges, published both North and
South, but we behold in glaring letters &C.
counts of diabolicsl deeds perpetrated
upon women by scoundrels whose stay on
earth should be but brief. la majority
of cases the sequel shows great number
lost" but punishment by rope is not
severe enough. Try little burning and
faying, and we wager decrease in pas
sions so dire and damniDg. A negro suf-
fered the penalty near Dresden, &c this
State, on Tuesday for the vile game"
engaged in. We are always glad to hear
of such action being taken by our citi.
zens, and hope they will continue, for
this crime should be stopped, and that
soon.

DOUBLE MURDER.
A woman Committed Suicide by
Drowning Herself and Child I'm a
Well.

One Of the unfortunate women who
came here from the North fully imbued
with equality Of the races drowned her
self, last night, from the effects Of too
much niger on the brain. The female
spoken Of was employed to teach the
little darby in the rudmerts of the Eng
lish language, and could oe seen daily
with her classes of monkey-like Ethio.
plans arrayed before her, while with true
Yankee schoolmarm dignity endeavored
to drive little learning into the thick
skull of young Cufy. The better to
accomplish her purpose, she thought il
expedient to marry q negro, thereby
identifying herself in every respect with
the race. The woman bore the name
here of Mrs. Anna Dick, which name was
said to belong to white man North, and
who was the first husband of the unfor-
innate. She ran eff from her Northern
husband and took up with negro black
smith, that at one time lived in this city,
who rejoiced in the name Of Douglass
Bonner. By the said Bonner, the said
Anna Dick conceived and bore him a
child of a coppereas breeches color. The
look of the thing was said to be more than
her large Yankee heart could bear, so
she thought to put an end to her miser-
able life. The first movement made in
that direction was to throw her negro
baby in a we'll, and then followed by
jumping in herself. The act proved dis
astrous TO both the woman and child,
both being taken out this morning
drowned. The water in the well was
fourteen feet deep, or sufficiently so for
the unfortunate woman to commit the
