Coleman in the Pcnitcntiary.

AOlchdH kH inc Il cDAtcheis' y
"Chester'' writes the Petersburg
Ners in regard to w. d. Coleman
lodgment in the penitentiary:
Coleman was of opinion that he
could not be removed from the Jail
until the date, but being arprised that
that was not the case and also apprIsed
of the fact that his term would not
commence until he reached the penl-
Tertiary and that all the time spent III
Jail would he that much lost, he made
no objections when told at 81 this
morning to prepare to go. He and the
jailor left the Jail in close carriage
about nine O'Clock. On the way he
was tolerabIy calm, but when he ar
rived at the institution he lost contr0l
of his feelings and wept bitterly. lie
continued to weep all the time he was
being dressed in his striped suit. Of
all the officers present. there was not
one whose eyes were dry. Every man
cried. The jailOr turned to go when
the striped suit was brought out. but
so overcome was with emotion and so
blinded with tears that he cOEld scarce
~ find the door. So Coleman now be-
longs TO the herd of striped convictss
who wear the uniform of Disgrace, ana
hope is shut out from his heart, for he
has no idea that the executive clemen-
cy will pc extended to him. Coleman
sat up the greater part of last night
working upon his "vindication" or
statement" He did not finish it and
took the manuscript with him to the
penitentiary.
