scended upon his delicate white skin. /,
In the meantime, John Britton and
George Chase, both colored, had been
brought out and pilloried. AT noon they
we're taken down and given twenty lashes
each. Britton had been convicted Of steal

Chase had pleaded guilty to breaking into
house and robbing it Of a pair ofpants, q
vest, three shtrts, purse and . gold
medallion, When his sentGnGo was Pro;
nounced, George seemed quite hckled,
saving, "Thank you, sir; thank you, sir, "
and as he was being led from the court
room back to his cell, he said to one OF the
deputies: Twenty lashes! ! can stand
that, and I've got that medallion yet.
This shows how inefficient this mode Of
punishment l. to deter from crime.
At l2 o'clock, George Warren, hne.
looking, stalwart colored man, %as leI out
TO be piioried. He was convicted OF bur-
rlary. and with him was James Dooley, O
while man, who had been convicted OF re-
ceiying stolen goods. They mounted the
n;ilory, and were yoked therein with as
much careiessneSs as II they were oxen.
While they were in the pillory, the War

FASTENED TO TIE WHIPPING POST.

His offence was the stealing Of 81 so in
silver coin from colored man named
William Davis, with whom he boarded in
Wilmington, and who, Davis said in his
testimony, got bad on my hands when
charged him with the theft" The Sheriff
was quite as merciful to his colored victim
and laid on the ten lashes lightly, wherein
Caulk walked back to the prison, with his
coat thrown lightly over his shoulders.
The crime was committed last Thursday:
The next customer was middle-aged
colored man, whose frequent appearance
at the whipping-post falsifes the theory
That n person who has been logged once
never comes back. Sewall Starkey knows
what the lash means, and took his twenty
lashes without dinching, although the
sheriff gave them to him with more vim
than to the others. He had been con-
yicted Of burglary, and is well known as
criminal. -.

OBITUARY..

Died in ST. Francisville, on Friday
morning January 49, Mrs. LOUISA WARD,
wife Of Mr. j. Aronstein, aged 81 years
and months.
Death has come amongst us, and has
laid his merciless hand upon one of our
most estimable citizens. Mrs. Aronstein
was worthy lady, and much respected
by all who knew her, for her excellent
qualities of mind and heart. Unselfsh
and generous in disposition, pleasant and
entertaining in manner, a heart overflow
ing with charity and Il life pure and
blameless will linger long and be kindly
remembered by her large circle Of SORROW
irg friends.
Her devoti IN to her husband in giving
up all she held dear, saying to him s. Thy
people shall be my people. and thy God
my God" makes it doubly sad for him to
bear the separation. Her helpless little
children will sadly miss the care Of Il
tender and atlectionate mother. Yet it
should he Il consolation to knuw that
while her disease was so distressinglv
painful she bore her Affections with Won
dcrful patience, caimncss ana resi- gNat;on.
Her fortitudc: cheertulness and compos-
IRE never left her, and when at last the
final hour arrived in which she must
leave her heart-broken family, who had
so tenderly watched over her, she calmly
yielded mp her breath and without a
mnrmur passed quietly away
May the tears of the bereft find consola
ton in the fact that while the grave holds
all that is mortal of her, and the winds
mourlfully chant her requiem, her pure
spirit has crossed the dark valley Of
death to mingle with the blessed in that
nlysiun. prepared for the good and faith
full.

We had the pleasure of call, on Mon
day morning last, from Mr.. A. Alexander,
of Warren County, Miss, who is making
tour of this section of the country in
the capacity of Associate Representative
of the Lee Monument Association. Mir.
Alexander holds his appointment from
Gen. Z. E. Furlong, brave Federal Off
Ger who has been appointed General
Representative of the Board of Managers.
The object in view is to erect an eques-
train statue of the great Confederate
Chieftain on the Capitol grounds at
Richmond, Va.
Mr.. Alexander took the train for Wood
vile on Monday afternoon, for the pur-
pose of prosecuting his labors for the sue
cess of the undertaking in Wilkinson
County. He will probably be in our
midst to-day and we trust will meet with
substantial encouragement at the hands
of our people, such rs the object, the COM
memolaticn of valor, virtue and private
worth so highly :iustifies.
Every subscription, no matter what
the amount, entities the donor to q GER
tificate of membership in the Lee Monu-
ment Association. and to have his name
enrolled among the archeives at Rich
mond.

was quite set back given to the old
spinsters who departed sadder but wiser
old gals. Mr.. Rice made lengthy, ex-
haustive and unanswerable speech in
support of the Silver Bill which passed
the House sometime ago. and remarked
that the cause of it's hanging fire in the
Senate was the objection OF
the moneyed aristocrats of Wall street
n. Y, whose cheating comes mostly
from the crooked narrow streets of New
York, and similar places. where men
mostly do congregate who produce moth
ing and consume much. but by some
means unknown to the uninitiated get
rich" He made satrical allusion to the
opponents of the Bland Silver Bill, who
were formerly its warmest advocates by
quoting
"'Twixt worming in and worming out
They leave tho beholder still in doubt
Was going in or coming back
Sunset Cox upon being asked if he had
raised his voice against the appropriation
to clear" He'll Gate' N. Y, replied that
he believed in hell, and wheneverhe look
ed on the Radical side of the House, he
had a confirmation of his belief, Qaugh-
ter) but that he voted against the appro-
priation for " He'll Gate" for the reason
that he stood for the country and not for
the locality (much laughter on our side).
The committee on Pensions will report a
bill granting pension to the soldiers and
sailors of the Mexican war, as we'll as a
bill restoring to the Pension rolls all who
were dropped upon the charge of disloy-
atty during the late war. Nothing else
has transpired either in Congress or our
city that would interest your readers and
therefore say al rerOir."
