The Milan exchange. (Milan, Gibson County, Tenn.) 1874-1978, 1877-06-28
Heart and Soul Love.

Benbury Floyd, of ChOwan County,
aged about 60 years, was convicted OF a
trivial larceny in 1873 and sentenced to
four years Imprisonment. he had been
a good soldier and lost a leg in the Con-
federate service, and was said by his
neiohbors to have been a kind hearted
and obliging man. He had no wife,
chick or child in the world except lit
tie blind daughter about 10 years old,
who was in the blind asylum. Last
week Superintendent Gudger came to
Gov Vance and told him the condition
of this little girl, and that having been
in the asylum the full term which the
law permitted, she would have to be
discharged, and he did not know what
TO do with her, as she had no home or
friend to 90 to, except this poor felon
father. The Governor at once prom
ised to pardon him. This week the par
don was issued, and Mr.. Gudger, plae-
ing it in the hands of the little girl,
went with her to the Penitentiary to lib
crate her father. The scene between
father and daughter was melting in the
extreme. She could not see the felOn's
stripes and the haggard prison-look,
and he, poor man, could look with pride
and fondness upon the fair but sightless
face of his child; something pure and
innocent still loved, him. Throwing
themselves into each others arms they
wept uncontrollably. After a little,
hand in hand they went away--RatetgS

The Milan exchange. (Milan, Gibson County, Tenn.) 1874-1978, 1877-06-28
Bonds Payable in Gold.

WASHINGTON, D. c., June 19.-The
following was decided upon at the Cab
met meeting to-day, The letter was
mailed from the Treasury Department
this afternoon:
TREASURY DEPARTMENT, WASHINGTON,
June 10, 1S77.-Frdncis 0. French, Esq,
Ne,c York-SIR: Your letter of the 18th
inst, in which you inquire whether the 4 per
cent. bonds now being sold by the Govern
ment are payable, principal and interest, in
gold coin, is received. The subject, from its
great Importance, has demanded and re-
ceived careful consideration. Under the
laws now in force there is no coin issued or
issuable in which the principal of the per
cent bonds is redeemable or interest PAYABLE
except in the gold coins of the United States
of the standard values fixed by the laws in
force on the 18th Of July, 1870, when the
bonds were authorized. The Government
exacts in exchange for these bonds payment
at their face in such gold coin, and it is not
to be anticipated that any future legislation
of Congress or any action of any Depart
ment of the Government would sanction or
tolerate the redemption of the principal of
these bonds or payment of interest thereon
in coin of less value than the coins author
lied by law at the time of the issue of the
bonds, being the coin eXacted by the Gov
eminent in exchange for the same. The
essential element of good faith in preserving
equality in value between the coinage in
which the Government receives and that in
which il pays these bonds will be sacredly
observed by tn Government and people of
the United States, whatever may be the
system of coinage which the general policy
of the nation may at any time adopt. This
principle is impressed upon the text of the
laws of July IA, 1870. under which the per
cent bonds are issued, and requires, in the
opinion of the Executive Department of the
Government, redemption Of these bonds and
payment of their interest in coin of equal
value with that which the Government re-
eeived upon their issue. Very respectfully.
JOIN SHERMAN, Secretary.

TELEGRAPHIC NOTES.

John Binyon and John Ryan, two of
three highwaymen convicted of robberies
committed on the roads leading out of St.
Louis in December last, were sentenced on
the 18th, by the Criminal Court, TO 10 years
each in the Penitentiary.
The CHILEAN Times of May l6 reports
that south of Valparaiso there was no loss of
life or destruction of property by the earth
quake. Between Valparaiso and the Bolivian
frontier the shocks were more severe. At
Antefagasto, in Bolivia, no lives were lost,
but the damage to property is estimated at a
half million. 1t is said the towns of Calama,
Chinchia and San Pedro have entirely disap-
peared.
Frederick Hendryx, a wealthy farmer
of Oldtown, H., 8 miles east of Blooming
ton, on the 18th shot and killed his wife and
then killed himself. He had been drinking
during the day, but trouble had existed be-
tween himself and wife for many years and
the latter was prosecuting suit for divorce.
Congress at its last session made an
appropriation of $1,000 for retracing and
conspicuously marking the boundary line

understood she is now engaged. Near
the first of May bennett went to Mil
waukee, secured sack, and, at a con-
venient moment, placed brick in it.
Placing the package under his arm, he
went to the house of the nurse, whom
he informed that he had made arrange
ments for keeping the babe elsewhere.
The child was nicely dressed and given
to its father 1t had become dark in the
meanwhile. Taking the child in his
arms he proceeded toward the, Milwau-
kee and st. Paul depot, smothering the
child under his arm as he walked, and,
in crossing the Menomonee River, placed
it in the bag and threw it in the murky
waters. He then returned to his studies
at the University, which he prosecuted
with vigor, often joining in the students
festivities when not ut his studies But
the ayenger was after him, About a
week ago passing tug stirred up the
murky waters of the river, bringing to
its surface the bag with its CHASTITY con-
tents. The police were at once set at
work to find the author of the crime.
Finally, by diligent search, they found
the man who identified its clothes and
its fathers name. His arrest followed
last night He at once confessed HIM
self the father of a child, but claimed
that he had taken it from its German
nurse and put it ON the steps Of pala-
tial residence in Milwaukee. The Of
ficers persisted in their knowledge of his
crime, to which he finally confessed. lie
was taken to Milwaukee by Chief Beck
this morning, and he will doubtless sui
fer the full penalty of his crime. bennett

dunn height, and was generally beloved

) for the past three years having beer
above reproach. His father is wealthy

An Unnatural Fathers Crime.

A Madison (Wis.) dispatch to the
Chicago Tribune tells the following sad
story of crime and its detection:
The arrest of A. w. bennett, one, OF
the graduating class of the State Uni
versity, for smothering and throwing
his 7-month-old child in Milwaukee Riv-
er, has caused much excitement here,
especially among the students OF the

An Estate of Nine Millions.

Mr.. Augustus Hemmenway, of Mil
ton, Mass, died about a year ago in
South America, where he held mines
and plantations. He was well known
in the South American trade, in which
he amassed nearly all his wealth. He
left the property to his wife and family
and his brother, except some 100000
in public requests. As the appraisers
of the estate, Messrs. William Perkins,
Henry G. Brooks and Charles u. Cot
ting filed their inventory of the value of
the real and personal property in the
Norfolk County Probate Court yester-
dav afternoon. The total value is 49,
S91, 1855, this. being the largest amount
of single estate ever entered for pro-
bate in Norfolk County, and it has been
rarely exceeded in any county or State.
The nearest approach to this sum, adj
ministered upon in Dedham, was the
estate of Ebenezer Francis, of RoXbury,
which was valued at about S4,000,000,
in 1858. It should be borne in mind
that persons appraising real estate or
any other property of uncertain value in
process of settlement, place a low,
rather than a high, valuation thereupon,
SO that it is fair to assume that Mr. Hem
menway was worth, financially, all that
the estate is valued at, The real estate
is valued at $3.50, 900, and consists main
" of property in Boston, as follows;
Marlboro Hotel, American House,
bouses on Beacon, Mt Vernon, Chest
nut, and North Streets, and Warren and
Shawmut Avenues; summer resi-
dence in Manchester, Mass, and the
homestead farm in Milton. The per-
sonal property comprises $685., 700 in
United States bonds, $3.50, 297.5 so in
State and city bonds, $685., 963.33 in
railroad bonds, S208,679.50 in railroad
stocks, S2O3, 1850 in coal and canal
stocks, S8S, 224 in manufacturing stock,

The GrasshOpper and the Ant.

A frivolous Grasshopper, having spent
the Summer in Mirth and Revelry, went
on the Approach of the Indictment Win
ter to the Ant and implored it of its
charity to stake him. "You had better
90 to your Uncle - replied the prudent
Ant; /" had you initiated my Forethought
and deposited your funds in Savings
Bank you would not now be compelled
to regard your Buster in the light of an
Ulster" Thus saying, the virtuous Ant
retired, and read in the papers next
Morning that the Third Avenue Savings
Bank, where he had deposited his funds,
had suspended.
