The trial of Nancy Riker for 8
murder of Charles Lee, OF Mansfd|

before Chief Justice Beasely, \
Thursday, closing yesterday. I'll
following are the circumstances v
der which the crime was committ,!|
On the night of Aug. 18th, six NIL
who had passed the evening togetl
and among whom was Charles L
visited the house OF the accuse
which had a bad reputation, a
spent several hours lounging arou
the premises trying to pursuade t
inmates to allow them to enter.
Nancy Riker refused positively
open the door to them, and threat.
ed that she would shoot the first 81
that attempted to carry out the thre
of forcing an entrance. About
o'clock in the morning, Lee decidI
that he would go in, whether the W
man wanted him ornot. Hethenl
the other men short distance fro
the house and advanced to the dot
Nancy says she warned him that s
was in earnest, and would she
him If he persisted. He did persi
according to her story, and she sh
him. His companions, who were
some distancey testified that tn
heard no noise until they saw Il
flash of a gun, and claim that viii
it was too dark to see what trar

cause" who understood that "fighting
Indians" was the least service they
would be required to perform
These armies, thus composed largely
of desperatermen, were placed under
the leadership Of the most daring
and, unscrupulous Confederate Off
GERS, disciplined into the most per-
fectsobedlence. and unalninity Of ac-
tion. and equipped in the most effec-
tive implements Of warfare. In the
same manner were the civil trusts of
the government confded to Confed-
crate partisans, the extreme limit of
the appointing power being attained
in all instances. Thus you can un.
derstand what a .yantage-ground was
obtained by them, quietly, and by
pcaceable and seemingly legitimate
DO not suppose that they encoun-
tered no opposition in carrying out
these nefarious schemes. They were
opposed at every step by intelligent
and determined men in the halls of
Congress, and by those mighty agen-
cies, free speech and free press,
which had not then been wholly
crushed out; but these were of little
avail when the reins of government
were held in the iron clutches of
Democratic demagogues and blind
Confederate zealots. Had the peace
loving and honest masses Of the peo-
pie been thoroughly alive to the mo-
mentous issues depending upon the
political campaign of 1876 there is
no room for doubt but that the bal
ance of power might have been re-
tanned in proper hands, by constant
vigilance, to the present day; and the
grand old Union of our forefathers,
with its enlightened ideas and liberal
institutions, might thus have been
preserved intact forever.
REVOLUTION PREClPITATED.
AS the year 1880 approached it be-
came apparent to all that the near
future was full of the most imminent
danger. Tilden's term of Office ex-
pired in March, 1881, and, according
to all precedent, the vacancy then oc-
curing was to be provided for by a
popular election in November Of the
preceding year. The respective par
ties assembled in National Conven-
ton as usual, and made their nomin-
ations as follows:

The result of the campaign con-
stituted a more complete victory for
the Southern cause than was the de-
feat Of the cmbattled armies of the
Union at Bull Runor rChancellorville.
Not only were Tilden and Hendricks
elected, but the Congress was Con-
federate by considerable majority,
the entire National Government be-
ing thus in the hands Of its enemies.
There was great rejoicing when
the news of Tilden's election flashed
from city to city of the Southern
States. Everywhere the esrebel flag
was displayed freely, and the stars
and stripes were torn down and
trampled under foot. as
