the Middletown Cornet Band, which had volun-
teered its services, puraded through the streets.
The people were mounted in wagons, and nu-
merous torches lighted up the way. After
moving through the principal streets the process
sion repaired TO the depot, where it WAS met by
the expected guests from the upper part OF the
State, and after they had been taken upon the
vehicles the line reformed and moved out to- the
residence of the Governor. The band played
"Hail Columbia" during the disembarcation of
the upstate people from the cars.
Arriving at their destination, the.multitude was
met at the door OF the mansion by the Cove rnor-
elect in person, who stood there hat in band,
and shook hands with his guests as they entered,
or as many Of them as possible. Banners OF
welcome were hung about in different parts of
the building. The freedom OF the house was
rendered to all, and soon all were scattered
about, enjoying themselves in various ways.

THE UNDERTOOK HANGING.
DETAILS OF THE EXECUTION.
HE MAKES NO Confession.



West CaEaTER, Nov. II.
Atnoon the prisoner was brought out from
his cell in the county prison, and passed through
the prison yard, accompanied by the Sheriff, and
deputy with the ministers who have been in
attendance upon him.
He walked firmly, with no outward exhibition
Of his senss of the terrible fate that awaited
him.
He assembled the scaffold, where a short prayer
was offered by the Rev. AIr. Best.
few moments were then spent in subdued
conversation between Udderzook and the minis
ters.
His last words to his spiritual advisers, who
have beer constant and devoted in their atten-
tons to him, were
can have to say is am sinner, saved by
grace, and l am accepted of God"
The Sheriff then approached him, and shook
hands with him, bidding him good-by. Deputy
McFarlan then placed the black cap on his head,
and Sheriff Gill, at nineteen minutes past twelve
pulled the drop.
His body fell several feet, but the neck was
apparently not broken, and death was caused by
strangulation, the body hanging there and CIV
ing no outward sign that he was suffering.
At half-past twelve o'clock, eleven minutes
after the fall, the heart had ceased to beat, and
the physicians pronounced him dead.
Thus ended the last act of this strange and
complicated drama.
His body will be placed at the disposal of hif
friends who will have it inferred.
He made no confession.

There is IA BIZ of genuine philosophy applica-
bio to the times in the following from the Phil
adelphia Commercial Last
Something like renewal of business activity
justiiies the hope that the season of supineness
and indifference which characterized the reac-
tion from the panic is over. There have been
men, and there always are men, who will mako
good use of the most unfayorable circumstances
and ont of the nettle danger pluck the flower
safety. But these are rare individuals When
times are good, the sea smooth and the wind
fair, it ID easy sailing. How we apples swim
But mans energy and courage are shown in
adverse times, when everything is discouraging
to the common crowd-for men always run in
crowls-and when tho general apprehension ag-
gravates danger into disaster. Our best men are
those who do most, and 1t IL a true saying that
if you want thing done you must ask man
WHO has already both hands full.
