Negro Mmrdcrer EXecnled.

CLEVELAND, May 3l-About eleyen
o'clock this morning mob of about two
thousand people, who had coDgregated to
see what they could of the execution OF
Webb, the colored murderer, at Mans
field, Ohio, made rush. overpowerci the
guard scaled the jail yard fence, and in
a few minutes had torn down the greater
part of the enclosure. Sheriff Richie
telegraphed Governor Bishop, notifying
him OF the fact, and saying that
unless :they hung Webb publicly the
mob would tear down the Jail. The Cow
ernor replied, directing him to carry out
the sentence OF the law. At 1923 ?, ~,
Sheriff Richie and SneritT Gay, OF Knox
county, appeared, with Webb between
them. 90 reaching the outside, Webb
glanced all around, with smile on his
countcnsnca. After adjusting the moose
about Webb's neck, and short prayer
being offered, the trap was sprung. Lie
was pronounced extinct in ten minutes
after the drop fell.

wer him on cremation will be wiser after
they try it. Though few if any OF bis
neighbors agree with him on that subject,
all esteem him highly for his charities.
A really good town library, and pro-
fessorship of Agriculture in the college
are the proofs of his public spirit. A
normal school at Memphis has received
from him some s., 500 as his testimony
to his intelligent interest in the colored
people.
The cemetery is the most beautiful l
have ever seen for town OF It's size.
Mr.. Crosbie its keeper, is Scotch forest
er and everything planted by him grows.
The town has about 5000 inhabitants,
and is rapidly becoming a centre Of small
railroads. The Hempfeld from Wheeling,
the CHARTERS Valley from Pittsburgh,
and the narrow gusge from Waynesburg,
meet there. Another narrow gauge will
be built from Pittsburgh this SKINNER,
and the money Is nearly all raised to ex-
tend that road to Welsburg, w. Va.
Washington is delightful place OF
residence. The long presence of It's two
educational institutions has secured for 1t
a high degree OF intelligence and culture
in its society, while its delightful climate
makes it very healthy. 1t has four
weekly newspapers, two Democratic, the
Reviel0 and Examiner and the Democrat,
and two Republican, the Reporter and
Observer. The Reporter publishes
sprightly daily edition. The colored
people publish the Monthly Elevator, and
the students of the College publish the
WASHINGTON Je6crSoniaH, monthly, dur
ing the ten mon tbs of the College year.
There Is not a licensed liquor house in
the county, and while the proximity OF
large cities makes more or less clandes-
tine drinking possible, fewer drunken
people are seen in it in sIA months than
can be seen every week in other places OF

Stream. Recent frosts have done serious
dan ye to small fruits, but at present the
prospects are for an early and very large
harvest, especially Of hay. That last
product has recently come to be OF large
importance by the establishment OF
oaling and shipping house here. The
railroads bring the city markets to the
farmers door. The county is rich with
coal, and in allusion to the predominsnce
OF Presbyterians of different names with
in It's limits, some ono has quantity said
alt is great place for sheep, coal and
Calvinism." For every purpose Of q
pleasant, useful life, some part OF the
county affords reasonable facilities.

MR.. WILSON'S SPEECH.

Mr.. WILSON of this District, made &
little speech in Congress on the financial
distress of the country, the other even
| ing, III the vein of the talk had with the
representative of the REGISTER, which
We print this morning. OF this speech,
the Washington Standard says:
at is q speech that comes pat to the
season and fitted TO the hour; it deals
with the paramount interests Of finance
and labor, those interests whose neglect
and msltreatment have operated 10 the
distress Ut the land. 1t stands out amid
the wastes OF legislative drivel like an
OASIS in the desert; its influence will fall
over the fevered workingmsn Of the ma
ton like the shadow of u great rock in q
weary land. II has struck the chord
that will give time and tune to the pOlti-
cal canvass in his State.
The honorable gentleman is an origi-
nal green hacker; he is u man who has
seen this crisis in our National affairs q
long time coming, and though not able
TO avert disaster, has not failed TO raise
the note of warning. Two years ago
when the mutterings of the storm were
heard, Mr.. Wilson, from his place in the
House, uttered words which now seem
prophetic, and which have formed
the preface TO the able speech
we print this morning, in which
he places the situation IN light
calculated to arrest attention. viii
ms warnings be needed by the audience
OF Congressman to whom they were aC-
dressed? is the question whose answer
will decide vital point for or against the
country, He has the mantulness 10 tell
Congress that 1t must do its duty, soon
and decisively. He has the fortlIudG TO
rebuke its delay, Its neglect OF the work
ing man, and its prOcrastina.ion in the
matter Of finance and political economy.
Mr.. Wilson does Mr.. Butler the honor
Of lndorsing his opinions, and though
they are politbal opponents on the old
line party issues, both gentlemen have
taken the same broad and enlightened
views Of the exigencles of tho hour, and
unite in demanding the relief which
willing Congress may, if it will, inaugu-
rate.
The workingmen need such allies, such
presentation OF their cause in tina halls of
the National Legislature, and when
found, suCn men and such advocacy
should be honored with confidence.
