Centennial Trees.

AS will be seen by the following,
the time for the Centennial tree
planting in this city has been fixed
for Saturday May Is:
To he HonOruJle dc Common Council Of
the city Of Aipena:
CONFERENCE.-THE Governor of our
State recommended to the citizens of the
State that the 18th day of April be OBJ
served as a day for tree planting in com
mcnoration of the Centennial year. As
on that day the weather did not permit
our participation, | would now suggest
TO your honorable body the propricty of
designating Saturday. May 18th. inst. as
n proper day upon which the citizens OF
our city should engage in that privilege.
as It seems TO me very appropriate and
proper for them. BY planting trees
around our residences and lots we add
to their value, and as time advances
they become u source OF beauty and
pleasure. Streets that are destitute of
trees have an unlnvitlng appearance to
Il stranger.
hope the suggestions Of Gov. Baglcy
will meet with cordial approval and our
citizens will act on his recommended
tions. And that every spring season
our citizens will plant trees around their
property and bcautify their homes and
add attractions TO the city.
Respectfully,

in case of fire, are provided.
Judging from the manner in
which the Council conducts the
business of the city at present,
and the general disagreement OF
the members of that body on mat
tiers that come before the board, it
is not to be wondered at that they
are unwilling to have their pro-
cecdings appear in print. But
they are the servants of the people,
and in justice to the taxpayers, it
is duty they owe to every citizen
that their meetings and transac-

6Ood Behavior.
In accordance with q time-honored
custom, Governor Porter yesterday
granted q pardon to four convicts on
hned within the walls of the penitentiary.
John Elliott, with a sentence for ten
years fer horss-stesling hanging over
him, was excused from serving the re-
mainder of his unexpired term. He was
the convict who had a leg blown of in an
explosion in q tunnel, on the Cincinnati
Southern railroad. q few months since.
Z. j. Eason was sentenced for twenty
years for murder in the second degree,
and had served but six years Of bis time.
De came from Hickman county. R. NJ.
Fryar had but ak months Of a three
years term to serve. His crime was an
attempt to kill. Eugene Gordon. of
Many county, for horse stealing, was re-
ileved Of six years of q term OF ten a
for which he was sent. All we're recon-
mendsd for pardon by the Warden for
uniform good behavior.
The above We clip from the Nashville
Banner of the 26th inst. Early j. Eason
was convicted in our Criminal Court. It
will be remembered that at q picnic
given at Horn Lake, Miss, be became
jealous Of young Mr.. Lyles on account
OF his attentions to some young girl, and
as both young men we're on their way
homeward that evening, Esson stepped
back a little, and, drawing a pistol, as.
s~assinated his rival. he then fed, but
was captured down in the Mississippi
bottom, a reward having been offered
for his arrest. The Governor has not
added much to society by turning so
great a criminal looss upon the world.
In 1871 EaSon was tried, convicted Of
murder in the first degree, and was sen.
fenced to death before our Criminal
Court for the murder of young Lyles.
An appeal was taken to the Supreme
Court, which tribunal reversed the action
of the Criminal Court md remanded the
case back for trial. In 1873 he was
again tried, convicted of murder in the
second degree, and was sentenced to
twenty years imprisonment in the State
peuitentiary house at Nashville; conse.
quently he has been a little over three
years in that institution.

In the Choctsw Nation, Immediately
beyond the residence Of Mr.. R S. Nc.
Carly, on Thursday morning, Israel An.
derson, sheriff of Sugar Loaf county,
was found dead on The roadside, his horse
tied near the place where he was found.
His neck, from what we learn, was broke
by a fall from his horse. 1t appears that
Anderson snd several other Choctayu
left town pretty late Wednesday evening
carrying more whisky under their belts
THAI they could we'll manage, and, for
which, had they made two trips, they
could have got along better. They we're
riding very fast when last seen, and the
presumption is that Anderson fell from
his horse and broke his neck las nc
marks of violence were visible anyWhere)
and HIS comrades, not knowing ali,
made his horse secure, so that when he
woke up he could ride on and overtake
them They we've mistaken, however, as
he did not wake up; and now the sad
tale is, Anderson is dead.

A considerable amount Of pstty pilfer

TIE ever.present tramp does a goodly
amount of stealing. The new race,
"Tramps," that has appeared in this
country within the past two years must
be descended from the Spartans Of
Greece. The old Spartans taught their
