A number Of men were hanged
last week. by sentence of court for
murder, and at number of the exc
cutions the disgusting clerical cere-
mony of assuring the condemned
men that all they need to reach hesv-
en- is to feel certain that they are
forgiven of the crime that they have
committed. In almost every case
where such doctrine WAS preached to
the outlaws they were emboldened to
declare that they felt that pardon
had been extended to them by their
maker, and then of course followed
the usual speech of pardon to all
who took part in bringing them to
justice, just as if society in protect
ing itself against their murderous
work had committed sin.

The hanging Of Gus johnson the
murderer, At Rome last Friday . week
was the greatest town show that has
been held in Georgia in many year,
ii vas disgusting exhibition. Fifteen
thousand persons were present when
the trap fell and the wrstch's neck was
twisted He left the Jail smoking ci-
gar, and conversed freely with the
Sheriff all the way to the gibbet. At
ter reaching the gallows be asked for
something to drink, and the priest who
was officiating gave bim bottle Of holy
water. johnson, after tasting il sbrew
Iit under the gsllows with . curse, say
ing that be thonght 1t was gin. After
some persuasion the Sheriff gave him
. drink OF wiskey. About this time
Mr.. Lawrence, street evangelist, spoke
to the prisoner about the Importance Of
thinking seriously on religious matters.
This raised the temper Of the Catholic
priest, who told him to 60 about his
business, as johnson had made his Sc
lection, and had asked him to oficiste
- minister, and that be would not have
any interference. The evangelist,
pointing to the following words: '.Tbe
blood Of Jesus Christ, Gods son,
oleaussth from all sins," printed in
large letters, and posted conspicuously
above the heads of the crowd, said t:
"Mr. johnson, that is the text" and
retired. After taking four or Eve
drinks and several guilds of tobacco, be
ssked the sheriff to let him tie the
moose, and finally consented 10 throw
aside the remains Of bis second cigar
an5 to let them hang him.

DELEGATE TO CONGRESS-.

More than usual interest centres in
this office at tlstsisieetiOn. Should the
proposed State Constitution lie adopted
by the people in November; yet ifa man
untitled for the special work before him
is elected Delegate, Congress would
probably fail tn recognize the work done
here, or it admitted, would not give MS
favorable terms MS otherwise might be
secured, tor the new State.
Another question at least equally I'M
portant will be forced upon the people
for their decision; that is, the line OF
con duct to be pursued in regard to rail
road communication between Eastern
and Western Washington. Probably
there are none but who are in favor of
direct railroad communication, and but
few in this Territory but who wish the
road or roads that may be tho outlet of
Eastern Washington to terminate on the
Sound. To nearly all the people it
matters little whether that terminus be
Seattle, Tacoma or any other equally
good harbor on the Sound. The thing
that is essential is the securing railroad
communication at the earliest practicable
period, and permanently settling the
Status of all lands affected by the land
grants, so that settlers can obtain a title
to them, on which they can rely.
The Democratic Platform pledges
their candidate Internationally in favor
of an extenton of time to the N. p. r..
The Republican convention will meet in
a few days; great danger exists from the
the fact that the jealousy of Seattle
towards Tacoma and the N. p. II. Il.
will cause them 10 work very hard TO
Induce the convention TO go to the other
extreme and adopt platform that will
refuse any extension OF time except upon
such terms as would prevent the build
ing Of q road to the rival town o; Taco
