FRIDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 3, 1873.
HANGING OF THE MoDoCs.

Pursuant to the sentence OF a military
commission, the Modoc warriors who
were implicated in the killing Of Gener-
al Candy and party, We're executed on
Friday last. A correspondent gives the
following particulars:
Boston Charley and Black Jim were
led on the scaffold first and Schonchin
next. They trod it with apparent indif-
ference and with iron nerves, having ev-
identity resolved to die and behave as
they had lived. Captain Jack went
easily up the stairway but looked
wretched and miserable. Their mama
cles had been taken off, but their arms
were p%inioned.
At precisely Gas A. NJ, the inter-
prefers explained to the culprits the ma
ture of the order TO be read to them by
the Adjutant, and at 10 A. NJ. Adjutant
Kingsbury read the order promulgatlng
the sentence of the commission, and the
Presidents order therein, with the or
ders of the Secretary of War and Depart
ment Commander. The chaplain then
offered an earnest and fervid prayer for
the souls of the culprits, which was lis
tened to attentively. At 10:l5 the fatal
nooses were placed around the necks OF
the victims. 1t was found necessary to
cut off a little of Jacks long hair,
which wash the way of the rope Capt.
Hoge then bid farewell to the prisoners,
and the black caps were placed over the
heads of the culprits. At 10 20 the rope
was cut by the assistant. The bodies
swung round, and it was found that
Captain Jack and Jim apparently died
easy, but Boston and Schonchin died
suffering terribly with commissions, and
repeatedly drew up their legs; the two
Others seemed to die almost instantly.
As the drop fell with a terrible deadly
sound, the poor wretched human beings
fell into eternity. A half uttered cry OF
pity went up from a crowd of over 800
Klamath Indians who witnessed the aw-
full spectacle.

For the Good of the Order.

Mr.. EpIroR-Sewing machine agents
are probably the .'salt of the earth; )" or
if not, they undoubtedly think so. One
of these individuals ola thigh order
stopped ut Judge b. b. Cases one night
lat week, and tried to sell him q ma
chine. Now, the Judge is in need of a
machine and believes every family ought
to have one ut II fair price; but he is
also of the opinion that as long as people
will pay "A hundred dollars to a compa-
ny for that which isn't worth more than
fifty, just so long they will have to do it;
and for one he is going to stand out
against the practice. Judge Case Of
fered him fifty dollars for a machine,
saying the company would make a hand
some profit ut that figure. But as this
would interfere with the agent getting
his pay, and the general agent his, the
offer was not accepted. On ascertain
ing that Judge Case was a Granger, this
remarkable acute agent related an in
stance lin his minds eye, undoubtedly
of an Iowa grange shipping cattle to
Chicago and getting cheated; and af-
terward employing q sharper to look
after their next shipment, which sharper
got the money and decamped. What
he meant to show by this, unless that the
farmers are Systematically swindled by
.'smart" people on every side, Judge
Case was unable to ascertain. The
graagers of Andrew county Tan learn Il
lesson from this, however; and that is,
not to employ Il sharper to sell or buy
stock for them-and also, not to buy
sewing machines at high prices from
~sharpcrs; and, rather than not sell their
machines, the companies will at length
be content to sell them at Il reasonable
profit. Respectfully, PATRON.

ONE of our correspondents sends a
communication commenting II dlia-
ting upon a speech recently delivered by
one Jefferson Davis, who, we believe,
still lives in some corner ofthlS "most ty-
raunical Government" The ammunition
of our writer is more than wasted. jeff.
Davis represented something ten years
ago. He stands for nothing now. He
is dead, and nothing can galvanize his
sayings or doings into that which is
worth paving any attention to.

How He Took Ii.

The Toledo Blade tells story of a
Northern soldier who was made Grip
pie at Stone River. After the war, in
conversation with comrade, he said:
"Yes, am doing pretty we'll; not
making much, but doing pretty well.
Have Just been to see my wife. She
married another man, you know. No!
Did you not know it Z Yes, she mar,
ried another fellow before 1 got home.
Divorce 2 No. She just married
him, and threw me overheard, you
know 1t cut me little to have the
woman throw me off, but looked at
the question from her standpoint, and
it's all right. Then l got worked up II
little, and l thought | had better steal
the children from the step-father, So
| went up to see them again. Would
you believe it, They said they didn't
want to live with me, if they had to
leave their mother So l said ALI
right, and came away again. You see,
my girl is smart. She knew that, with
my lame leg and arm, / couldn't sup
port her right, and the little duck told
me so, with her arms around my neck.
That finished me. you know"
But" said the friend, "the woman
is legally your wife
Il know it," said jim; "but if l
was stubborn and claimed her, you
see she would have to take in washing
to support the family. Legality is the
thing. / can't do anything much, to
have her working for me. l couldn't
stand that huff az well as / can the
way it is now No, sir; legality don't
help the matter will never be COM
Portable, any way. She'd marry after
/ was dead, so what's the use of whimp-
reing now -"
