The execution Of Mrs. Phabe
Campbell, convicted Of the murder
Of her husband in the township OF
Missouri, in July last, took place
in privata manner at Tie jail To-
ronto, G. w. June 20. Tho con-
demned woman walked from her cell
to the scafold, pinioned and with
out assistance, her step firm, her
countenance ruddy and healthful,
and her whole demoanor that of a.
person in good spirits, satisfied with
herself and all around her.
On the scafold her Clergyman
made statement corroborating her
last confession, and bidding farewell
to all, and advising all. to take
warning from her unfortunate posi-
ton, and requesting all to meet her
in heaven. The drop fell at 8:27
A. NJ. The rope was apparently too
long, as her feet nearly touched tho
ground, though her neck was ill.,
stantly broken and she died without
a struggle. Her paramour and
supposed accomplico, Coylc, is i'll
prison awaiting trial. In her con-
fession she accused him of commit
ting the murder, but admitted that
she was his accomplice. --Chmlcs!on

1t IS not cur policy to exsggerate
the misdeeds or vices of a city OF Ten
nessee, and least OF all would we
wrong the capital; but say what It's
newspapers may, the misdeeds Of the
mob In Nashville that murdered the
negro murderer deserve exec alton.
Memphis is on a great highway Of
nations, and the swell-mob Of the
universe drifts by with ehangeful
seasons, and crimes committed here
by unknown villains make one shud-
der. This is often true OF Memphis,
andpeOple abroad understand that we
are in no wise responsible for
the facts; but in the State capital a
negro whose guilt is not by any means
ascertained, is put TO death by a bru-
tai mob. We would have expected
such a shameful incident in Boston,
or in any old, grsyhaired city Of the
Old World as soon rs in Nashville, a
city built and finished before the
food. But we deplore the unhappy
event because Northern Radiealism

Ne Is Presented by a Federal Grand Jury
For Lsyying War against the United
States.

NEW YORK, March "a specia.
dispatch from Brownsville, Texas,
says that the grand jury of the Fed,
eral court, Judge MOrrel, presiding,
indicted the Mexican general COrtina,
for levying wax sgainst the United
States. The jury made the present.
ment of facts of armed bands of Mex.
lean raiders dealing in cattle on the
Texas border for the purpose Of secu-
ring protection from the United States
government. The presentment char
ges that 8 depredatory var had been
waged since 1866 by Mexican bands.
A reign OF terror exists between the
Neuces and the Rio Grande. The in
farmers are threatened with death.
the presentment also says that ia.
arez has been p~etitiOned to remove
COstins, but without effect. The evil
dence SHOWS that since the close of the
civil war that on an aver
age OF five thousand cattle have been
STOLEN monthly, the value Of which
is estimated at six million three hun
dred Thousand dollars. During that
four revenue inspectors have
been killed by marauders and officers
there in peril of their lives. The
United States fOrce were asked to pro-
5ect the border. Judge Morrell and
General McCOok endorse the state
nents in the presentment.

SINCE our article in regard to the
consolidation Of the Memphis and
Someryille and the Memphis and
Jackson railroad companies appeared,
we have been informed that the COM
missioners Of the Memphis and Jack
son road have been and are now will
ling to unite with the other company
in building a joint-road as far as SOM
eryille, to be owned and operaSed
upon equal terms by each company.
We do not know whether this prope-
sition viii be accepted BY the other
company, but are satisfied that neither
the city nor the county win make
any subscription to these companies
except upon the condition that they
unite in building a joint-rosd.
ANY other proposition would and
should be defeated, because there is no
usei In attempting to build two roads
through the same region Of country.
. the companies cannot agree upon
satisfactory terms OF union, then
neither should apply for a county or
city subscription, but both should rely
upon private subscriptions. In this
way II would soon be determined
which has the greater merits, and In
that event the other would fail.

IT Is STATED that Mr.. Murphy rep
resents the President as having recon-
mended the removal Of 'the young
man Leet" as long ago as last iall the
reason given by the President being
that Leet had brought disgrace upon
the service by his management Of the
general order business. Bat, by this
admission, Mr.. Murphy establishes
the fact that the President knew what
was going on in the customhouse last
fall; was aware Of the protests Of the
merchants, and Of the Indignation
against the plunderer Lest, and appre'
ciated the danger Of 6 continuance Of
such an evil. Yet we do not find
Leet removed, but rather, when at
last the Senate insisted upon an inves-
tigation, the supporters of the admin
istration sustain him 70 the very end;
and certainly with the eountenance Of
the President. When General Grant
knew Lset was cheating the mer-
chants of New York, he should have
insisted upon his removal. He did
not do so, and, hence, is responsible
ali his conduct.

TIE New York Tribune, in its issue
OF the sd, under the heading s'CiviIi-
cation at the South" thus speaks of
the negroes "Generally speaking,
they have learned how to protect
their personal and political rights.
Bat, in the intoxieation Of sudden
political Acknowledgement, they have
fallen victims to an Infamous horde
Of adventures from the Northern
States, whose robberies they lack the
sagacity, and perhaps the instinct Of
responsibility, 20 prevent. The
sEreWder and more INSCRIPTIONS Of
their own people have joined hands
with these thieving carpet-baggers,
and the result is a reign Of corruption
and oppression entirely without par.
alIel In the history Of the United
States. One after another the unf0r-
tunate communities seem to be rush
ing into bankruptcy. Whatever little
conscience may have now and then
shown itself there in the manage
ment Of public affairs is fast becoming
extinguished."

THE NEXT CENSUS will demolish

as undoubted facts. The most popU-
lar Of these is, perhaps, that which as
cribes all the Ignorance in the country

copies Of the census show that in one
State at least there are more Hitter
