Easter at the Church Of the NATIVITY

In accordance with o time honored custom
the Episcopal Church at this place on last Sun
day was claborately decorated with flowers and
evergreens fit emblems of the joy which oil ST. ould
feel upon the anniversary of "Chrisrs Pass
over" II would be useless for us to attempt to
describe the taste and elegance displayed by the
ladies in the decorations. We can only say they
we're perfectly beautiful, and we have never
seen q greater profusion Of really choice and
beautiful hot house plants. 1t was an appropri.
ate offering of christian hearts and hands to
Him who rose from the dead on that day.

Military Appointments.

Only few days ago we were informed that
Union had, at last, been honored in the military
line Of appointments. We had come to the con-
clnsion that Union had been entirely ignored,
or we had no military spirits among us but we
find that Gen. Gary hos appointed on his staff
H. IL. Rawls, Esq, as Quartermaster Major, and
James II, Rodger as Ordnance Major. Well,
General, you could not have made better selec-
lions. You will find them good officers; but
the difficulty with us will be in realizing the
fact that it is Major Rawls and Mejor Rodger
when we salute them on the streets.

The Hanging OF M,Eyoy.

AIKEN, April l9.-Thc curtain Mt last has fall
len on the earthly career of Robert McEvoy, and
his case is now before the Supreme Tribunal of
the universe. McEvoy was hung today at ten
minutes 4efore. clock, in one of the up-stair
cells in q Jail, in presence Of the sheriff and
assistantfSfhe priest and the ten spectators al.
lowed by4kw several Of these being prominent
colored apen. The fall was over six feet, and
McEyoSS Without the slightest struggle, died in
hfte6 es. IRtalf an hour the body was
takeh down. placed In tho @coffin and given to
his father, who has carried it in q wagon to
Graniteville, where it will be inferred.
The arrangements for the execution were very
simple, the fatal rope being suspended from
rafter, and double trap doors cut in the floor
and supported by bars extending from rolling
ing string above, turned the beam. and, the
prop falling, the trap door opened and the body
fell throughto the lower CELL
Father Heidinkalp was with McEyoy from
this morning, and came out with him from his
cell to the one where the trap was fixed, and re-
mained by his side to the last.
|. am informed that McEvoy's manner was
| calm and grave and the only words he uttered
were, "Let me straighten myself, when the
| pnions were placed uncomfortably around him.
About fifty persons gathered outside the Jail.
Up to last evening McEvoy cherished the hope
of further respite and at his earnest request was
allowed 10 come up town and have his photo

Perin!spdsnt of the Graniteyille Factory, that

were the parties who shot him two years ago.
He also wrote long statement and sent it to
Representative Sawyer this morning, giving val
| liable information to what he knew of the
murder of young Sawyer in 1874, but he stated
that he would give no names until he was sure
it would be to his advantage.
After an interview with his counsel this morn
ing, in which he learned the utter failure Of the
efforts in his behalf in Columbia, he saw that
all grounds of hope were gone and then broke
| down and refused to see any enc else but his
spiritual adviser, and would not reveal what he
professed to know. The priest expressed him
self satisfied of McEvoy's readiness for death,
and believed he had fully repented of his sins.
However sad the mode it is relief to the whole
community, land doubtless TO the Governor and
Judges whose painful duty it was TO the refuse
