Mr.. Whitehead, democratic

recently, that the trouble was the black
man wanted something, and would
always want something, because he

breath could almost be heard. He was
in great agony Afterwards, when
the court took recess, he said Mrs.
Moulton had lied from beginning to
| end.

IA farm in Georgia. If he had followed
the example Of his illustrious chief,
General Lee, aud remained quietly in
private life, without dabbling In poll
ties, he would not now be execrated by
his own immortal old corps, who have
witnessed, WIN inter shame ana NOR
tification, the fall of their old leader
into the mire OF political apostacy ant
