that the American residents have not

The death Of the victim is thus re-
ferred to In n small room in st. Luke's
Hospital, where he had been conveyed
for treatment, with one hand clasped in
that Of his wife and the other holding TO
his only hoy, his spirit fled. Early in
the night the attendant physician saw
that he was sinking fast and that he must,
soon die. Till that time no one but his
wife had been allowed in the room be
sides those required to nurse him, and
everything that man could do to prolong
his life had been done but the murderer
had done his work only too well, and the
doctor announced that the crisis had
passed and changed for the worse, and
he could not live. The mother then sent
for their only child, a boy 13 years of
age, who had ever been the idol of his
father. Before the arrival, the father,
who had not spoken before for hours,
asked, Where is Sidney ?" The boy
came in the room, and going to the side
of the bed took his fathers hand and
kissed it. Too far gone TO speak, a
culver ran through the frame of that
father, and fearing the excitement of the
meeting was fastening the dreadful APP
proach of death, the boy was asked TO
retire for a moment. Hearing this re-
quest, the now almost dead man, unable
to speak, with great effort raised his
hand and beckoned for him to return,
when, again clasping his hand, peace
full smile passed over his face, and for a
moment the hearts Of those around him
throbbed with hope. Lying there for a
moment, another relapse ensued, follow
ed shortly by another interval of con-
seriousness, and these changes alternated
until shortly after 3 o'clock, when the
practised eye of the physician saw the
moment of death had arrived, and that
life had fed. The weeping ones were
led out of the room, and the body ar
ranged for'the coming of the coroner.

having been arrested, Mr.. Haight started
for the police court in order to procure
her release, and had reached the corner

mission of charity and justice. The great
agitation caused by the policeman's coarse
and unmanly conduct and the unusual
exertion on the part of Mr.. Haight in
crossing over to the police court were,
no doubt, the immediate causes of the
death. The news of his death spread

The JAIL-BREAKNa AFFAIR AT Ne
BRAsKA.-The ten prisoners who escap-
ed from the Penitentiary at Lincoln,
have not yet been captured nor heard
from. The burning of the Insane Asylum
and the escape of the prisoners was
probably prearranged, and it is thought
some of the officials are implicated in the
affair. 1t is stated the Asylum was unsafe,
and was fast crumbling from being i'm
perfectly constructed, and that it was
fired by an incendiary at the same place
where it had been set on fire once before
The most favorable excuse that can be
given for the escape of the prisoners from
the Penitentiary is that the guard was
probably asleep.

thereto, eniOining upon all good citizens,
and especially public officers. b. be zeal

warning al persons 10 sbStain from com
hitting any Of the acts thereby prohib-
tied.
The law Of Congress applies 10 all parts
Of the United States, and will be en-
forced everywhere 10 the extent Of the
powers vested in the Executive. But
inasmuch as the necessity therefor is
well known 10 have been caused chiefly
by persistent violations Of the rights
Of citizens OF the United States by com
binhtions Of lawless and disaffecled per-
sons in certain localities lately the thea

lido particularly exhort the people Of
those parts Of the country 10 suppress
all such combinations by their own
voluntary efforts through the agency Of
local laws, and TO maintain the rights Of
all citizens of the United States, and to
secure TO all such citizens the equal pro-
lection of the laws.

posed upon the Executive by the act of
Congress to which public attention is
now called, and reluctant to call into
exercise any of the extraordinary powers
thereby conferred upon me except in
cases of imperative necessity, do never
theless deem it my duty TO make known
that 1 will not hesitate to exhaust the
power thus vested in the Executive
whenever and wherever it shall become
necessary TO do so for the purpose Of
securing to all citizens of the United
States peaceful enjoyment of the rights
guaranteed them by the Cons titution
and laws. II is my earnest wish that
peace and cheerful obedience to the law
may prevail throughout the land, and
that all traces of our late unhappy civil
strife may be speedily removed. These
ends can be easily reached by acquies-
cence in the results OF the conflict now
written in our Constitution, and by the
due and proper enforcement of equal,
just and impartial laws in every part of
our country.
The failure of local communities to
furnish such means for the attainment
of results so earnestly desired, imposes
upon the National Government the duty
of putting forth all its energies for the
protection of its citizens of every race
and color, and for the restoration OF
peace and order throughout the entire
country.
In testimony whereof, L have hereunto
