sents about 81, 100000 OF bonds OF the road.

NEGRO oUTRAGEs IN STEWART COUNTY.
COLUMBUS, May 2S.-Last Friday morn
ing before daybreak Mrs. G. c. Chambllss,
of Stewart county, was murdered and rob-
bed by three negroes OF the neighborhood.
They fred the fences and drew her hus-
band away from the house. The negroes
then proceeded to the house to rob it, and
were met by Mrs. Chambliss. bashful
woman, aged eighteen years, armed with a
gun. One OF the negroeS-Jcrrv Snead-
took the gun from her and lodged the con-
tents in her head, causing her death in
stantly. The negroes burned the corn-crib
and fled, but were pursued and captured.
Jerry admitted the deed, and implicated Ste
phen 4 BRAN and William Booth. They were
brought to ChambliSs's house that after
noon, and it was unanimously decided by
about three hundred whites and blacks
present that they should be hanged. 4
gallows was erected, and the murderers
were hanged with trace-chains. The color
ed participants in the lynching threw the
lifeless bodies into an old field to rot, and
it was with great difficulty that the whites
could persuade them to permit burial.
The culprits met their fates ieeringly and
sneeringly, glorying in the deed and taunt.
ing their eXecutioners.

Washington, hfpy %, 1sTT.-NTy Dear
Sir,-I have read the partial report OF the
commission appointed to examine the New
York custom-house. I concur with the
commission in their recommendation. 1t Is
| my wish that the collection OF the revenues
should be free from partisan control and
organized on strictly business basis, with
the same guarantees for efficiency and fidel-
ity In the selection Of the chief and subordi-
nate officers that would be required by pru-
dent merchant. Party leaders should have
no more influence in the appointments than
other equally respectable citizens. No as
sessments for political purposes on officers
or subordinatcs should be allowed; no use
less officer or employee should be retained !;
no officer should be required or permitted
to take part In the management OF political
organizations, caucusses, conventions, or
election campaigns. Their right to vote
and to express their views on public ques-
lions, either orally or through the press, is
NOT denied, provided it does not interfere
with;the discharge OF their official duties.
Respectfully, r. 3. HAYES.

ox nressed Measure in extending the greet
inc n, the linton to them. we have passed
tbrouoh sad scenes. The yawning chasm
has seemed to be closing up; the seam yet
remains. We ask nothing but this; YOU
and we look to the same God; we worship

same cause; and we all look forward TO the
day when In fulness OF spirit we shall! be
absolutely one. (Applanse.] | extend TO
YOU, am confident, the true Christian rei-
iowship from every member OF this Union.
DR.. Hatcher responded briefly. Wecount
it as a great pleasure, he said, to appear
before YOU as representatives OF the SOUTH
crn Convention. We came simply upon
fraternal errand-to bring the cordial sym.
pathy Of our brethren with youin your WORN.
need not tell you that the hearts OF tne
southern brethren beat responsive WIN
YOURS in this work. This spectacle when
we Witnessed mere tHlS IIui mas 10 oh> $500

for enlarged activity in the future. we
thank you for your cordial, loving rccep-
ton.
AS the delegates were leaving the plat

marks. thanking the Union for its kind re-
ception, and assuring the members that the
hearts OF their southern brethren were
with them.
Previously the Journals report OF the

Rev. DR.. Dickinson, of Virginia, made an
address full OF interesting points. He pre-
dictcd the conversion OF the heather, told
