PRAYER FOR LIFE.
AnAHectingS Scene.

Some time since was published in the
UNION AND AMERICAN an account OF
dark murder committed by John Press
wood, for which he was convicted in the
Circuit Court of DeXalb county, and SEN
fenced to die by the Supreme Court at its
last session in this city. Yesterday the
parents, sisters, brothers, and several friends
of the unfortunate young man, interviewed
His EXcellency, Gov. John q. Brown, for
the purpose Of asking, and with the hope,
doubtless, of obtaining at least cOmmuta-
tiOn of the dread sentence of death if
not a pardon for the offender. The
facts, with every circumstance of the
murder, were stated to the Gov
ernor, who patiently heard the petitioners.
The scene was affecting and one to be
long remembered. While the Governor is
by no means prone to dispense mercy to the
offender, and especially to one who has
committed the deepest crime known to the
law. the murder of a fellow creature, yet
his situation was not pleasant. A weeping
father. mother, sisters and brothers, all i'm
plored mercy for The life Of one SO dear to
them. The appeal was made in tears and
on Bonded knee, still its prayer was not
granted. Ii was struggle between anOble
duty, justice, anu d SeutIOuS NliIuCJ mercy
urged by mother, entreated by father,
a brother, a sister, friend. The Governor
did not relent from his duty and refused to
grant the pardon. Presswood is
Young; scarce has his manhood come
upon him; bat be must die, die
the death of fe!on, and leave an inherit
ance of guilt as mockery to the feelings
of a mother and father whose love sought
mercy from the decree of justice. What
feelings, how strong and grandly heavenly
are those which urge parent to intercede
for one who is no longer worthy to be called
son. Upon receiving the Governors an.
swer the party retired sorrowfully, and only
then when all human effort proved useless
seemed to realize the great weight of allie
ton which rested on their hearts. Surely
the destinations of hope are strong when il
is that of parental love, yet truly are it.
disappointments more sorrowfol and o
most frightful realty to the soul when lif
is offered as sacrifice for guilt to death, tht
expiator of all human crime. The dealt
sentence is to be carried into execution OF
the 26th inst, making the fourth of its kin,
in this State since last January.

A few days ago the Mayor received the

NATIONAL TELEGRAPH MEMORIAL
MONUMENT ASSOCIATION, WASHINGTON,
D. c., April 5, 1S72.-To the Honorable
Mayor of the city of Nashville; Tenn.-Sir:
l have the honor to transmit to you here
with resolution adopted by this associa-
ton, inviting the cooperation of the friends
and admirers of the late Prof. Samuel F. B.
Morse, throughout the country, i'll holding

inst, simultaneously with great national
memorial meeting to be held in the House
of Representatives at the National Capital
On behalf of this association, l respect
fully and earnestly request you to take ap-
propriate measures, at the earliest moment
possible, for holding such a meeting in your
city at the time named. The telegraph
wires viii be freely open on the occasion for
an exchange of sentiments between the sew
ersI meetings and the one held here. Very

RESOLUTION.
Whereas, The United States House of
Representatives has placed its hall at the
disposal of the National Telegraph Memoir
ial Monument Association for the purpose
of holding a memorial meeting in honor of
the late Samuel F. B. Morse, on Tuesday,
April 49, and prominent members of both
houses of Congress and other distinguished
speakers have consented to address the
meeting; and whereas, the telegraph has
been freely placed at the disposal of this
Association for that evening, to secure an

thorities of the cities Of the United

calities on the same evening, in order that
the meetings may be in telegraphic com
mum cation, and thus simultaneous ex-
preston be given to the national grief on
the occasion of this irTeparable loss.

steps that resulted in meeting last even

expressed, it was felt. The members Of

Sensible Views.

The New York Commercial Bulletin,
treating of the benefits of advertising, says:
"In those descriptions of business, in which
the amounts of the sales are large, or the
quantity of the desired article Of traffic
great, advertisements have ever proved
themselves TO be a powerful ally toward
success upon a large scale. Wholesale
trades, especially, increase in fOur-fOld IA
ito. according to the business transacted,
and single stream added to the river of
trade at any time may prove the parent to
other currents, or the means Of directing
their course into the main channel. Inregard
to specialties and ordinary trade, it is to be
noticed that the direct benefit to be derived
from the insertion Of advertisements is more
definite and appreciate when applied
in the case of the former, while in the latter
the good moves silently but not less surely
on the objective point. Most establish
ments of Importance find it to their interest
in these times, although on the principle of
selfdefense, and to hold their own, to eX-
pend a yearly sum in this manner, while
the fact that some successful enterprises are
Independent of this aid, does in no wise
prove that they do not stand at a disadvan-
tango upon this account, or that they do
not thus place bar to the successful fol-
lowing up of the full sum of their adyan-
tages. Experience on the most extended
scale has proved beyond a doubt that the
benefits to be gained by this important ad-
iuuct to every description of modern trade
and commerce, if they come silently, are
upon this account no less real and lasting

IMPORTANT ARREST.

The Desperate Smith In Custody.
1t will be remembered that about two
weeks ago Policeman Starkey attempted to
arrest desperate, VIM. Smith, alleged to
have been accessory in the murder of Henry
Murray. Smith was then in the vicinity of
the Louisville railroad depot. He shot the
policeman and escaped. At once reward
was semi-secretly offered for his apprehen-
sion. Five hundred dollars was to be paid
by the city if he was taken out of the
State, but only half of that amount could be
claimed if he was takenin the State. The OBJ
ject in not making it generally known that
the reward had been offered, was to throw
Smith and his friends off their guard to
some extent. The Sheriffs Of different
counties in and out of the State, and some
others, were notified about the reward, and
as a matter of course they all kept their
eyes and ears open as wide as they could
TO detect the criminal. Among them was
man named Wills who, yester-
day, came upon Smith in Stevenson,
Ala. Having arrested him, he at
once telegraphed to Mayor Morris
for instructions. The Mayor answered:
"Bring the prisoner TO this CITY," Smith
was expected to reach here at three O'Clock
this morning, and policemen were detailed
to take charge of him on his arrival and
conduct him to Jail. As Wills found the
prisoner outside of the State he will get the
$500 reward.

what is said OF our city and its Trade

The Huntsville Vidette of Saturday last,
thus refers to Nashville and its trade:
"This city has never in all its past history
enjoyed higher degree Of prosperity than
it now does, nor has it ever before had so
bright prospect for the future. Her mer-
chants are now reaping the harvest of the
heaviest trade that has ever been known to
flow in upon her. Her business men have
plenty of capital, buy from manufacturers
and importers, and buy the best quality of
goods, and "sell short" so that they can
compete in prices with any of the jobbing
is buying this spring in Nashville, instead
of going to Baltimore and Philadelphia; and
some merchants are coming to Nashville
from beyond Atlanta.
"a larger proportion of West Tennessee
merchants are now buying in Nashville
than at any period since the war. Her
trade is extending far out into Arkansas
and down into Alabama and Mississippi.
Thus it gladdens the heart of every patriot
Tennesseean, to see his State Capital City,
not only recovering the trade which was
diverted through unnatural channels during
the war to Northern cities, resuming the
aggressive and extending her trade far be-
You'd its ancient limits.
'There is one enterprise that ought to be
especially fostered by Nashville, and that is
the tobacco trade, so energetically and sue
cessfully initiated by j. NJ. Carsey & Son.
The tobacco trade of Louisville has done
more than any one other element to make
her a great commercial city; and it will
greatly swell the tide OF prosperity that is
now pouring in upon Nashville, if it is
properly fostered.
"The prospective location of the great
Theological School of the Southern Baptist
Church, and the Publishing House of the
Southern Presbyterian Church, and the re-
building and enlargement of the Publishing
House of the Southern Methodist Church,
will make Nashville great intellectual and
moral centre, and apOwer not only in Ten
nessee, but throughout the South"
