Judge Baker yesterday overuled the
motion Tor a new trial in the case Of Rev.
Mr.. Caldwell convicted Of perjury and
sentenced to one years imprisonment in
the penitcntiary. The judge could do
nothing else but there is in our mind no
doubt that this man is the victim OF a
conspiracy-a deep aud damnable con-
spiracy. A petition for his pardon.
signed by the best men OF our city,
regardless OF politics, will be sent to the
governor to-day.
The San says Rev. Fred. l.. Thomson

good as often a. any person does this to

The Sunday school convention that
| concluded its labors yesterday, at the
Methodist church the weather being
very hot and the Sunday school energy of
the Sunday school people being at dis
count, was a very successful convention,
! considering the heat. We remember
when Sunday school pupil we didn't
like to go to school; but we are now sat.
