THE EXECUTION.

After prayer on the scaffold by Rev.
Mr.. Barr the rope was adjusted about
his neck and the black cap drawn over
his face by Sheriff Ralston and his de-
putty, Mr.. Switzer, Shiffiett all the while
crying and morning In great agony and
fear, exclaiming, "God knows I am in
nocent" Deputy Sheriff Bare then cut
the rope which held up the platform and
Shifiiett fell to the ground, the rope
which was of cotton, threeeighths of an
inch in diameter, swapping like thread,
and scarcely breaking his fall. The eff
feet of the fall was simple conclusion,
the condemned man soon recov ering
and continuing as before his piteous
waiIings, At five minutes past ten he
was again carried to the scaffold, q hea-
vier rope having been procured and ad-
justed about his neck, and the black cap
was again adjusted. At this point he
begged that the cap might be lifted so
that he could see daylight once more ere
he went into the darkness of the eternal
beyond. His last request having been
granted he looked wistfully at the sun
and then at the spectators, and said /:
"Good. bye. gentlemen, all of Won: I
am innoc mt !.inpocent! innocentu'
Az HlHe Utilities PaS0 ~ Cue rope was
again cut and the body of Anderson
Shifflett was dangling in contortions be-
meath the scaffold. He was pronounced
dead in eleven and one half minutes,
death having been produced by strange
ulation. snd not by dislocation of his
neck. The body of Shifflett, for whose
burial plain pine coffin had been pre-
pared, was handed over to his brother,
who carried it to his former home in the
mountains of East Rockingham for in
terment.
Public sentiment here is, notwith-
standing his denials of his connection
with the murder. that Shiffiett was gull
ty, and justly suffered the extreme pen
aItv of the law. rH

Stubborn Facts.

The debt of Virginia is something less
than thirty millions of dollars. The
precise figures are S29, 4S9, 336.3s.
The county of Augusta contains
about one-fortieth part of the popula-
ton and taxable values of the State.
If we were to appertion the debt
among the counties, SO that each should
pay its rateable share, the share of Au-
gusta would be one-fortieth part of thir-
ty millions, which is $75O,OOO.
Now what did Augusta get as the con-
sideration of this debt?

These figures are not official, but they
approximate the truth, and are certainly
not in excess of the true amount.
It thus appears that Augusta has re-
ceived, in permanent investments OF the
money borrowed by the State, more
than two dollars for every one she would
be,called on to pay.
These improvements, too, lead to an
annual expenditure, within her borders,
of not less than S15O,OOO. Besides that,
the Railroads and turnpikes annually
save to the. farmers, in the form of re-
duced cost Of transportation of their
productions to market, an amount more
than equal to the interest on their share
of the debt, if, indeed, it does not exceed
the whole amount which she pays in
the form of taxes to the State.
Suppose Augusta sends to market in
flour and grain the equivalent of 100, 900
barrels. Before we had a Railroad, the
cost of transporting it to market would
not have been less than one dollar per
barrel or 100000. Now it costs SO cents
per barrel or $4,000, which is saving
in that article alone of $4,000.
The, proportionate saving on cattle,
hogs, potatoes, hay, fruits, butter, poul-
try, and other articles, is still greater
The savingin the return trade, in groce-
ries, plaster, salt, &c, is in the same pro-
portion. -
!, It must also be borne in mind that
the Luhatic Asylum and D. & d. & B.
Institution now cause an annual eX-
penditure of 100000 in our county
This makes a market for -four, corn,
oats, beef, pork, poultry butter, hay,
and many other articles. When the
new building at the Asylum is compile
ted, the annual appropriation will have
to be Increased some $4,000 or $4,000
thus Increasing the market for our farm
ers,gnd augmenting the amount OF mon
~ thrown into circulation.
Would we not be simpletons to kill
the goose that lays these golden eggs,
by electing Representatives to the Leg
islature who would either repudiate the
whole debt of the State incurred in con-
ferring these benefits on us, or by "com-
pulsory REIMBURSEMENT" take the lenders
of the money by the throat and say tt
them, "Unless you will surrender hal
