RoMANcE IN OHIo.-CoLUMBUs,
O, December ga remarkable case
of true love mas come to light in the
Penitentiarv that has romantic tinge
co it, In May, 1873, Thomas Miles
and Anna Mcfarland were sent to
prison from Licking county, for bur
glary, under the same sentence. Not
long since, the woman asked a guard
about Thomas, wanting to know how
soon he would get out On inquiry of
her, it was learned that they were en-
gagged TO be married before coming to
the prison, and that she was not really
guilty of burglary, but pleaded guilty
that she might be allowed to suffer with
her lover She told the guard that if
Thomas was still true she would mar
ry him when they got out. Thomas
was interviewed. aud he mas still true
to his Anna. The prison authorities
were moved at the situation, and al
lowed them an interview, which is said
to have been quite an affecting scene.
Their terms expire on the same day
January 81, 1875. 1t has been ar
ranged, at their request, to hold the
ceremony in the prison chapel on the
day of their discharge. The Chaplain
Will perform the ceremony The
twain will start out with freedom again
as one flesh, after two years confne-
ment within the same walls, with but
one interview in that time. Il may be
added that both have been exemplary
prisoners.

WARMoUTH's KNIFE Ours.
post mortem examination shows that
Byerly, killed by ex-Gov. Yarmouth,
in New Orleans, received six wounds,
only one of which was superficial, being
q slight flesh wound over the abdomen,
and any one Of the other five wounds
would have caused death. Two
of them were in the back aud left
side, penetrating the spine. These
were the immediate cause of his death.
The three other wounds penetrated the
side between the fifth and sixth ribs,
aid would have caused death in a
couple of weeks from pneumonia,
though they were not of an immediate
ly dangerous character.

FRIDAY MORNING -: SEPTEMBER 3,
CRIME

There is, throughout this State, n
predominant CONVICTION that our sys'
tom of criminal trials needs n thor
ough ovcrhauling. Crime must be
suppressed men who necdlessly
take life or shod human blood must
BIO more certainly punished, on the
people will lose confidence in gov
crnment. Men who rnthlcssly or
unnecessarily take life must be
hung, else the security for life is too
procarious to afford peace and sccu-
rity to tho country. The habit OF
gottine drunk and shooting on
slight povocation must DO broken
no, root and branch. Drunkenness,
instead Of being IN apology Tor
crime, should DO STORMY construed
as an aggravation of the offence
If n man knows that liquor makes
him n devil, instead of being shield
cd for murder committed while
drunk, he should DO held doubly
guilty. Society must be revolu-
tionized on this subject. The safe
ty and the rights of law-abiding
citizens demands that the idea OF
jurios eXcusing murder, or other
high crimes, because tho accused
WIS drunk, must be cast aside
as monstrous outrage ON
the community. Execute the law,
and teach reckless mon that whom
they take life their own lives shall
pay the forfeit. A few such exam
pies, on the part of Texas, will teach
desperadoes n lesson without which
quiet citizens have no guarantee.
Tho poople-tho bone and sincw
of the country-aro losing conf
denco in courts and justice. This
leads to mob violence and lynch
law. The only remedy is for courts
aud juries to do their duty. Hang
the murdcrer--send TO the pomten-
tiary for long terms ofyears the
thiof-rprosecute crimo in all its
forms in tho full spirit and intent OF
the law, lot the offender DO who he
may. Teach men that crime is
crimo and shall be punished, and
the day will speedily come when
our jails will DO empty and honest
men can walk the streets ut mid.
night without danger of pistol, slung-
shot or the garrote.
Over and above all, remove from
tho minds OF the wicked the idea
that to BIO arraigned before our
criminal courts is n small matter.
Garry ont the law without fear, IA
vor or affection, as honest citizens
sworn on the Holy Evangeists of
Almighty God to render true vcr-
diets, and the result will DO that
crime will cease.
