EXECUTION.
Hanging Of Tom LOckett for the Murder
Of 3. F. Norwood, of Shiloh.

From the Marengo (Ala.) Journal, jth.l
Tom LOckett, the murderer of B. +.
Norwood, was executed in Linden on
Friday, the twenty eighth ultimo, in the
presence Of very small crowd, not
more than fifty persons, all told, being
present. When he was taken from the
cell he. seemed eager TO meet hls fate,
and mounted the steps of the scaffold
with promptness and alacrity. Upon
being asked by the sheriff ifhe had any
thing to say, he made brief speech, in
which he confessed his guilt, expressed
penitence for the murder, acknowledged
the justice of his sentence, warned his
friends 1ainst the commission of crime,
and declared himself ready and willing
to meet death. During the whole time
he was speaking nothing indicated fear
ON his part, and save little pereeptible
trembling of his body he never lost his
self-pOssessiOn. Before Lockett's speech
his brother knelt down at the foot of the
seaffold and prayed at length, but only in
disjOinted calculations, which were per-
fectly unintelligible to the greater part
of the audience. Lockett met his fate
with a boldness that almost amounted
to insensibility, and seemed to regard
death as a release from the confinement
to which he had been subjected. He
died without q struggle, and his appear
ance after death was perfectly
natural. No contortion of features
or other evidences of suffering
We're visible on his countenance. The
peroration of Lockett's speech is said to
lave been affecting and really eloquent
He.apostrophised the sun aud the trees,
bidding them farewell; and, turning to
the sheriff, as the cap was being drawn
over his head, said "Mr. Sheriff, do

Special TO tire Appeal
LITTLE Rock, March 1S.-In the sem
ate the following bills We're introduced:
To incorDorate Falkland seminary; to
authorize the governor 70 appoint State
geologist; TO fix the price Of supreme
court reports at FIVE dollars per volume.
The house memorial for the sale of
the Hot Springs reservation passed.
The senate substitute bill to redistrict
the State for congressional purposes was
called up, and viii be acted on to-mor-
row.
In the house Mr.. Gist gave notice Of
the introduction of a bill authorizing
aud requiring the governor to call a
State constitutional convention. The
people cordially indorse this move.
The house unanimously cOncured IN
the senate amendment TO the bill eX-
tending the payment of taxes 10 April
Both.
Numerous bills were introduced,
among which were the following: To
protect lands from injury by wheeled
vehicles; to provide for the adjustment
of State claims against the United
States; 10 afford relief to persons who
have purchased school bonds; TO abolish
capital punishment; TO divide the State
into four congressional districts; TO es-
tablish a State library. The last bill Sc
cures a library to the State without any
appropriation, and is entirely self-sus-
tanning.
Mr.. Warwick introduced a bill to fill
certain vacancies N county offices in
certain cases. The bin gives the gov
ernOT appointing power to I'll vacancies
| for an uneXplred term, OccasiOned by
death or otherwise.
Mr.. ThrOwer moved an amendment
/ that provided such vacancy occur in
| less than nine months from the expira-
| ton of the term. Rejected.
Mr.. J. II. Berry OEsred an amendment
providing for g vacancy occurring over
six months befoce the expiration of the
term, and further that the governor
shall appoint officers to supply any pres
ent vacancy.
Mr.. Latta Democrat had Unbounded
confidence in The governor, believed he
was honest, and favored his admins
tration. Knowing his anteeedents in
North Carolina, and his unstained judi
cial character, I am satisfied that he
will listen to the voice of the people.
| We Democrats have proven our earnest
support Of Governor Baxter, but we are
unwilling to extend the appointive
/ power.
Mr.. Fox supported the Dill. He thought
the governor better capable to select the
proper officials for Pope county, or 9th
ers similarly situatel, than the people of
those counties, who were temporarily
exssperated, perhaps, by biased feelings
and motives.
Mr.. Chapline moved that the bill and
7 amendments be deferred until Monday
1 for further consideration. Carried. The
/ people are vitaily Interested IN this nlea-
sure.
Tho amended liii creating Clayton
county was passed.

Special 10 the Appeal.l
|. NASHVILLE, March 13.-The run of
depositors on the freedmen's savings
bank commenced yesterday and con-
tinued to the closing hour to-day, the
majority Withdrawing small deposits.
About ten thousand dollars were with
drawn, leaving a balance of deposits
amounting TO one hundred thousand
dollars. At the close Of banking hours
confidence was somewhat restored, and
the knowing ones seemed to believe the
bank would be able TO weather the
storm. All Of the officers of the institu-
ton here are colored men, and the pres
ent trouble is not attributable TO any
fault on their part, but rather 30 the al
legged bad management on the part of
those controlling the parent bank at
Washington.
