To Be Hung.

The Press and Herald of the 18th,
speaking of the Reynolds tragedy, con-
tains the following death sentence pro-
nouced upon John w ebb, by the Ander-
son county court last week, where Webb
had taken change of venue. A motion
for a new trial was made and overruled,
and then the presiding Judge, in an
impressive and awe-inspirlng manner re-
viewed the facts of the case and the JUS
tice of the verdict, and then proceeded to
pronunce the solemn judgment of the
law, which was, that the prisoner should
be delivered to the Sheriff of Knox equity,
who would take him to some place near
the city of Knoxville, and there, on the
10th day of April next hang, him by the
neck until he was Dead Deadm Dead!!!
and Divine mercy was invoked upon his
soul. He appealed to the Supreme Court,
which will review the case at Knoxville
in June.

B. G. Maynard, President of the Bris-

with his usual smiling countcnance on
Monday morning, and remained just
long enough to ask after the success of

his physical appearance it was evident he

A highly important and attractive fea-
ture of the Reporter, is the Law Depart
ment. To the lawyer, this department
alone is worth the subscription price, as
it contains, each week, from three to
four columns of the Supreme Court De-
cisionS James d. Park, Esq, one of the
ablest lawyers in the State, edits the law
department, 20 whom all business rela-
tive to law should be addressed. Its
miscellaneous selections comprises the
most digestible and merited articles of
the day, making it even a splendid fam
lily paper. Mr.. Browne left for Nash
vile Saturday morning, but does not
calculate reaching that city under eight
or ten days, as he intends to thoroughly
canvass the Reporter in the various towns
along the line. The price of the paper
is $3.50 per annum, postage prepaid.

A ROYAL Organ.

The stomach has been well named ''royal or
gan" since it sways and controls the entire system,
every gland, tissue and nerve sympathizing with it
as the servants of prince sympathiZe with their
master. Each one of them is fed and sustained by
ft-eyen the brain ITSELF the centre of sensation, is
absolutely dependent upon it for susteuance. Con-
sequently, when the stomach fails to perform its
aIl-important office, the subordinate organs also
fater in their duty. The reason why Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters have such a wondrously beneficial
effect upon the general health and are such re-
liable preventive of disease, is that they speedily
overcome weakness or disorders of the stomach,
and thus insure complete nourishment of the en-
tire system and healthful performance ofits vari
Gus functions. Unlike those stimulants whose al
coholic principle is unmodifed by judicious medi-
cation the spirtuous basis of these Bitters which
is of the prest description, holds in solution herb
al alternatives and invigorants to which foremost
rank has been assigned in msteria medica. But It
is not alone the fact that these sovereign botanic
elements enter into the composition of the Bitters
that constitutes them such benign tonic and cor
receive, but also that they happily combined
that the full effect Of each is exerted upon thr dis
ordered or debilitated system. The digestive aud
secrctive organs the first to experience their
benehcent operation, which extends, by sympathy,
influence thus exerted is fruitful of those great
sanitary results which have built up the reputation
of this truly nntionaI medicine.

Midnight Music.

One night last week, while all was
still as death, save the low murmurings
of the signing winds, and the occasional
boot of a frighted owl that rent the mid
night air and fioated out on the bIeezes,

gentlemen of the String Band, in their
line of march, and made the recipients
of sweet strains of music We emphat-
ically congratulate ourselves and tender
