time the President absented himself
a new officer would have to be elected.
The Senate refused to; concur, there
upon the members Of the judiciary
committee arose, onesby one, and with
yery long faces asked to be excused
from further service on the committee.
The Senate believing that a commit.
tee possessing so much ability could

resignation. So the Senate now holds
the scal 2ing-knife.

THE EXECUTION OF
7 H 0 M A D. CA R.,
st st. CRaHsUHis Ohio, for the Murder
Of Louisa For-Hs Printed and Yer.
bal Confession Of the Crime.

Thomas D. Carr, who suffered the
extreme penalty OF the law at St.
Clairsville, Belmont county, Ohio, on
Thursday last, for the murder of
Louisa Fox, was the most hardened
william that has cxpiated his crimes
Oh the ,allsws~ia@O Ohio since execu-
tons became private by legislative en-
actment. A mai must usually be
Judged by his actions; they are the
outgrowth of his mind, and since it
is impossible to look into Il mans
heart, to scan the workings of his
mind and account accurately for his
actions, they must speak for him.
/ The impression that Carr made was
that his nature was cruel, coarse, SEN
sual and devlish. ~Illiterate, total
ly unguidcd by reason, and acting
altogy ther from impulse he stopped
at nothing. No human consideration
directed him; nothing but his base de-
sires and cold-bleoded milignity. His
temperament was saDguine-nervous-
bilious. at ="
His printed confession gives PROM
inence to the fact that he served in the
Union army throughout the war, and
dwells with emphasis upon the fre-
quently repeated assertion that he was
a older and a fighter. This confess on
was made on the 9Th of March, in the
st. ClairsviIIe Jail, where his ccnducl,
from first to last, was vile, as well as
dangerous to his keepers. He swOre
and prayed almost in the same breath,
and was n constant source of trouble
and annoyance during his entire con-
finement. His wishes and wan swere
whims cll, and when not gratifed he
gave vent to his disappointment by
ebullitions of the most ungovernable
rage. But it was not in anger that he
butchered the fair young girl Tor whose
murder he was hanged.-Here is his
own account, which he pronounced
"every word true" while standing on
the scaffold with the rope around his
neck:
"On the previous evening, Wednes-
day, January 20, 1869, Louisa had
said that she would tell mt something
in the morning that she did net like to
tell me then. So the time was come
when she had to tell me, for her faith
er had said that if she did not, he
would whip:her. So she told me that
her father had SAID she must sack me.
I said, Good God Almighty; Louisa!
he did not tell you that, did he? She
said, Yes, Tom Z; when ]. asked her if
SIZE was going to live to it? she said,
No, Tom, not if 1 can help it any
way.' i felt PERFECTLY Wild, / went
about my work, crying like a child; 1
loved her dearer than the God who is
in heaven. .,-.i,
"At breakfast, Mr.. Hunter spoke to
me abut the brick we intended TO
make. After breakfast (Which was
the last meal I ever ate there,) I got
up. swearing and curshhhg at Mrs.
Hunter and John Fox; but not at
Louisa, as Mrs. Hunter swore on the
witness stand. I said if Louisa staid
there l would leave, wanting to get
! her away Sc / co1id-talk to her. I

STATES AND UNION:

COLUMBUS, O., April I, 1870
STATES AND UNION:
The Appropriation bill as amended
by inserting the Morgan raid claim,
came up for consideration on WedDes
day. Gen. Cockerill to,k III, floor
and advocated its passage as a Just
claim. The House refused. The vote
was reconsidered and its friends in
creased by the news that the Govern
ment had allowed a similar claim to
the amount OF S461, 00o. An other
effort was made to secure its passage,
but it failed by two votes.
The Soldiers relief fund which a
previous Republican legislature in Vi
olatiOn OF the Constitution, had trans
ferred to the Sinking fund, is by the
provisions of the appropriation bill,
to be applied to the Soldiers orphans
home from year to year until the total
amount il used.
After the defeat of the Morgan raid
claim, its friends became indignant and
defeated the appropriation bill, and
so the matter stands ut the present
writing. r
Things are becoming interesting just
now Odlin's Senate bill providing
for the funding of certain amount
of the State debt that fnlls due soon is
before the Finance committee of the
House. There is some diversity OF
opinion about it. SO; g.
Resolutions of coincidence were pass
ed and orat;ons delivered on the death
of Gen. Thomas, in the House.
A very persistent effort is made at
present to. move the Central Lunatic
Asylum west of Columbus on the Sui
livant farm. The friends of the meas
ure claim a great advantage in the
transfer. Isl
a very amusing farce took place in
the Senate to-day, being the first day
of April. The Judiciary committee
had been tomahawking bills IN a most
unmerciful manner all winter, and re-
Gently the legality of the office of Pres
ident Pro tenapore, was referred to the

finished.
THE FIFTEENTH AMENDMENT
" PROCLAMATION.
The President decided this morn,
ing. in response to the appeals of Sen.
ators, to send a special message to
Congress to-day, accompanied by the
official notification of the State De
pmtment announcing the ratification
Of the Fifteenth Amendment a. a
part of the Constitution of the United
Estates, provided that the House pass.
ed the Senate Am. ndment to the
Texas Bill. The proviso was fulfill
ed very quickly. In less than an hour
after Congress met the bill passed the
| House as it came from the Senate,
and was duly enrolled and signed by
the Vice, President and Speaker. of
the House, and by the President
! within an hour from the time of its
passage .a .
The President, just as soon as he
signed the bill, signed and dated the
special message, which he had previ-
ously prepared, and sent it in at once
t. the House of Representatives, TO-
gether with the Special notice of the
Secretary of State regarding the
Amendment. The House was in
Committee of the Whole ut the time,
but there was such n %fiuttering when
the contents of the message became
known, hat Mr.. Maynard, who was
speaking, was asked to give way
The Committee rose, the Speaker was
sent for. and the documents were
read AS the official notification show
ed the State Department had count
ed in Indiana to make the required
twenty-eight States to ratify the
Amendment.
MI. Niblack, of that State declar'
| ed that the so called ratification by
Indiana was a fraud and untrue. Mr..
Fernando Wood, with great emphasis
declared that New York had never
ratified. Mr.. Peters, of Maine, stand
ing on theRepublican side, said Eve
think that New York has ratified it."
which caused q burst of laughter,
amid which Mr. Brooks inquired re-
ptONiuSiy IL thS AAOuSO w" u tOhh
meeting. The Speaker restored Or
der. and the House decided on refer
ring the message to tie Judiciary
Committee. This was about to be
carried, when the Democrats moved
to adjourn, to call the House, &c, in
order to gain time to secure debate.
The Radicals seeing that they
could gam nothing ~thcreupon, with
drew the motion, and the documents
were laid on the Speakers table. The
Democrats maintain that the amend
ment has rot been ratified 10y three
fourths of all the States and they ex
pect to show that in the DISCUSSION
The Connecticut members say that
the announcement of the ratification
is too late to use the colored vote in
the election in that State on Tuesday
next, but the Western members state
that it will apply to township cleo
tions soon to come off in Kentucky
and Indiana. The Republicans of
this District will celebrate the ratii-
cation by a torch-light demonstration
next week, for which preparations
have been made for some tImo.
