Drowning the Ra /.

The partiality of the darkey for the sun
is proverbial AT monday, with the fierce
rays shining down on his bare head, the
mosquitoes singing around him, and the
flies making amorous dalliance with his
nose or lips, he sleeps and dreams. One
old darkey in the Fourth District, New
Orleans, has daily, for months past, select
ed the doorstep of prominent residence
for his MONDAY nap. Being driven off one
day, he comes the next With his head
thrown back and his mouth wide open. he
snores away, to the exceeding discomfort
of the inmates. Called to the door by
this disagreeable diapason few days since,
the lady of the house concluded she wonld
try an experiment. For this purpose she
procured small piece of ice and dropped
it into the huge orifce that served as Sam
bo's mouth. 1t disappeared like shot.
and with cough and a snort Sambo start

ugh !'' he cried, as the ice sent violent
thrills through his stomach.
"Wbat dis?" and his fingers clutched
nervously the afflicted parts.
Just then some one cried out in the
house that big rat had run down "Uncle
Sans" throat. This added terror to his
pain. He rolled on the banquette and
cried Justify for help.
"Fore God, missus, he's gnawing out n
me. I feels him. o, golly, he's kiln
me-" and the whites of the darkey's eyes
protruding like saucers, and the convulsed
and anguished face, showed that real pain
was strongly enhanced by his imaginary
terror.

to paroxysm of lamentation.
"Drink warm water, Uncle Sam, and
drown him." the lady suggested.
Without moments hesitation Sam
started for the water~plug. He turned on
the crank and the water started. Sam
glued his lips to the nozzle until his sides
were puffed out like an inflated balloon.

We clip the following from the K

We clip the following from the Knox
vile Chronicle of Nov. 9Th:
Yesterday the case of Andy Williams.
colored, convicted of the murder of Adolf
Deutsch, in Hamilton county, in 1867,
for which crime he was convicted and sen.
fenced to be hung, was disposed of. He
was sentenced to be hung on the 10th OF
December. This was an appeal to the
Supreme Court, and the opinion rendered
by Chief Justice Nicholson. gt
Justice is slow, but it is sure. The
crime for which this man is to be hung is
still fresh in the minds of our old citizens,
but it is we'll for the benefit of some ofthe
new corners. that we should recall the cir
cumstanccs. Adolf Deutsch was a young
er brother of Henry Deutsch, the we'll
known matchmaker of this city. and was
partner in the business. He was Young
man of fine talents, good looking. and uni
versally esteemed. Indeed, we doubt if
he had an enemy in the city. On the
morning of the 5th day of November,
1867. he started into the country towards
Birds mill, to recover some watches which
had been stolen from the store by ANDY
Williams, the negro now under sentence
of death for his murder. as
He did not return at the time he was
expected, and towards night his brothers
became alarmed, and parties were sent out
IN search of him. but failed to find him.
Early next morning, Wednesday, Nov.
9th, another party was organized to search
for Mr.. Deutsch, and at 5 o'clock in the
morning his lifeless body was found by
Esq. Blackford, stripped to the shirt, ly-
ing IN the woods, within 500 yards of
Sheriff Connor's house.
A coroner's inquest was held which de-
veloped the fact that Mr.. Deutsch was last
seen alive near Connor's house, which the
negro Andy Williams following him with
club which he was proven to have pick
ed up near the house of VIM. Rogers.
The first blow was struck from behind
with the club.
The negro confessed that he committed
the crime, and said that after he had strip
ped the body. he saw that Mr.. Deutsch
was not quite dead, and thought he. had
better finish him, which he did by another
blow. The negro ran to Georgia, but was
hotly pursued, and was FINELY captured by
some farmers on Lookout Mountain some
20 miles from here.
He was first tired before the Circuit
Court at Harrison in June 1868. and was
ably defended by Col. j. Burch Cooke,
X. Henderson, Esq. and Mr.. w. Marshall.

and Hon. ID. NJ. Key, now Chancellor, ap-
peared.
lie was convicted, and sentenced to be
hung on the 9th of August 1868. but an
appeal was taken that the venue was not
correctly laid in the Indictment, and also
on error in the charge of the Judge. This
appeal came before the Supreme Court at
Knoxville in 1869, and new trial was
granted.
The new trial was held at Harrison in
Feb. 1870, and another conviction follow
cd and sentenced to be hung. A general
appeal was again taken, resulting in the
action above indicated.
No more dastardly or unprovoked mur-
der was ever committed, and we rejoice
that after so long delay justice is at last to
be done.

The Oldest City.

Damascus Is the oldest city in the world.
Tyre and Sidon have crnmbled on the
shore Baalbac is ruin; Palmyra is burn
ned in desert; Ninevah and Babylon
have disappeared from the Tiris and Eu-
pirates. Damascus remains what it was
before the days of Abraham a center of
trade and travel, an island of verdure in
the desert, presidential capital" with
martial and sacred associations extending
through thirty centuries. 1t was near Da-
mascus that Saul of Tarsus saw the light
of the brightness of the sun; the street
which is called Stright, in which it is said
he prayed, still runs through the city.
The caravan comes and goes as it did a
thousand yeats ago. There still is the
shiek, the ass, and the water wheel. The
merchants of the Euphrates and the Med
iterranean still occupy these with the null
titude Of their wares. The city which
Mahomet surveyed from nighboring
height and was afraid to enter because
it was given to man to have but one par
adise, and for his part he resolved not to
have it in this world is to to-day what
Julian called ''the Eye of the East" as it
was. in the time of Isaiah, .:the head of
Syra.'
From Damascus comes the damson or
blue plum. and the delicious apricot of
Portugal called damasco; damask, our
beautiful fabric of cotton and silk, with
vines and flowers raised upon smooth.
bright ground the Damask rose introduc-
cd into England in the time of Henry
VIII the Damascus blade, so famous the
world over for its keen edge and wonder
full elasticity. the secret Of whose manu-
facture was lost when Tamberlane carried
the artist into Persia and that beautiful
art of inlaying wood and steel with gold
and silver, kind of Mosaic engraving and
damakeening, with which boxes, bureaus
and swords were ornamcnted 1t is still a
city of flowers and bright waters; the
streams of Lebanon and the "silk and
gold" still murmur and sparkle in the
wilderness of the Syrian gardens.

The failure of the negotiations for an
armistice continues the leading topic, and
there isaa disposition in some quarters in
England to attribute the failure to the
faulty of the French" From the gen
eral character OF the dispatches, however.
1T would seem that the French have acted
with quite as much frankness and fairness
as the Prussians. The points at issue are
not yet entirely clear, as, according "
divers correspondents, the " hitch" is said
to rest severally on the questions of re-
victualing Paris, cession of territory, free
ingress and egress in and out of Paris,
and supply of ammunition to the army be-
sieged. Possibly each item has something
to do with the matter, but it is not likely
that even passable approximation to the
truth of twill be presented until Bismarck,
on the Prussian side, and THEIRS, Trochu
and Favre. on the part of the French.
shall enlighteR the world with their in
evitable circulars to the neutral powers.
The fact that Mr.. Theirs was still at Ver-
sailles yesterday morning led to the hope
that negotiations were not altogether end
ed.
The Prussians, however, have resolved
to push the war to its extreme, and it is
announced at Versailles that the bonn
bardment of Paris will commence to-day.
Similar announcements have been made
before. 1t is held by French authorities
that no bombardment Of the city is posi-
bic until the forts are taken, and that the
Prussians will not be able for two weeks
to make an attack upon them. The Paris
forts, 1T is stated, have heavier guns thar
the Prussians have yet been able to estab-
lish, and can silence any battery that may
be opened against them now. Even should
the forts eventually be taken, the space
between them and the inner line is honey
combed with mines, the roads leading into
the city are barricaded, and the army to
be defeated numbers 100000 men. 65O,-
600 of whom are armed ard have arrived
at high state Of discipline. The city is
said to be amply supplied with provisions
sufficient to last several months. On the Z
| other hand, the PrIissians will have to keep
up their supplies from Germany during
the winter, beset by Franc-tireurs and with
winters weather against them, to say
nothing of what may be done by the armies
of Keratry. Bonrbaki. and other organ;xa-
tions for the defense of France.
These ard similar considerations lead
many of the French people to believe that
they can eventually repei the invaders,
preserve their territory, and save the
honor of the country. 1t is asserted by
the same authority that while Bismarck
refused to allow Paris to be resupplicd,
the prime cause of the failure of negotia-
tions was the refusal by Favre to consider
the question of yielding territory. Tho
Tours Moniteur charges the failure direct
ly5 to the account of Bismarck $ duplicity.
The French loan has been conceded place
on the lists of the London stock board,
and is quoted at l saa premium. "a

THE WOMAN QUESTION.

To the Editors OF the Union and American;
A friend has called my attention to a
criticism which appeared week ago in
your paper on an address delivered by
myself some time since before the gradu
ating class of the AthenGum at Columbia.
The address itself is its best defense; and
as the published abstract of the address is
comparatively short, if you have room
for it l presume copy could be found,
from which to republish in your paper,
though l have none at hand just now.
In the meantime, you may say to my
youthful critic-fOr such, in charity,
must suppose him to be-that there were
tsUO points made in my address, but both
of them entirely distinct from the object
he supposes the address to have had in
view. If he was present and listened, he
ought to be aware that the question OF
woman's rights, as he puts it, was di
rectly ignored in my Introductory re
marks. The yagaries of a youthful
mind can alone excuse the mistake of my
| critic. d. G. KELLEY.
