generally understood, the Governor has remtted
this much of her sentence till the 18th of June,
and has also remtted till the same time the pill
lorying and whipping part of the sentences in
the cases of John Downing and Jacob Schurz
convicted of the larceny OF coat from q car in
this city. In the former case, that of Mary Me-
teer the oolored woman, convicted of child
murder, it is generally conceded that the Cover
nors action is equivalent to final REMISSION of
this much of the sentence.
John Miller and Daniel CLARK, two young white
men, aged II and 10 years, respectively, were
whipped with ten lashes each. They are to pay
fine of SIS 81, remain in prison six months and
wear convict's jacket fix months thereafter.
Miller was the first one whipped. The lashes
were lightly laid on the tender skin, doing no
further injury than raising red welts. He was
released from tho post and returned to the pri-
son. laughing.
Clark was whipped very lightly, yet he evinced
his cheeka, and strong effort was made to sup
press the choking sobs. When loosed, however,
he forgot his misery and smiled as if IL were but
fun. Very little moral reform was produced in
these cases by the " cat"
As usual, on these occasions, there were many
children and several women paesent The crowd
assembled and lotered around the Jail yard long
before the Whipping took place.
The press was largely represented. with re-

He said he went down on the shore. and
while there he was accasted by some one who
laid his hand ON his shoulder, and told him to
get rid Of thar coat and stop drinking whisky, Or
he would come to him again. Davis says he
