A WAN WHO WAS HANGED.

A gray-haired and decrepit prisoner az
rived here from the West Thursday night in
charge of Detective r. A. kincade of Olney
ILL.,, and J. Stone, eX-Sheritf of Putnam
County, Ind The old man was lodged in
the city Jail, and last evening he resumed
his journey toward Perryville, Boyle
County, Kentucky, where he is wanted for
having murdered an old and helpless lady,
in cold blood on the night of the 18th day Of
April, twelve years ago.
In 1866 John Taylor lived near Danville,
KY, and enjoyed the luxuries Of good
health, little care, fair means Of living,
and large family. His son, William Tay-
lor was indicted by the Grand Jury of
Boyle County for robbing a country dwell
ing and stealing some goods One Of the
principle witnesses in his case was Mrs.
Bolton, widow, who lived i'll a farmhouse,
with no other companion than alittle grand
daughter. On the morning of the 18th of
A pril, that year, the old lady was found
dead in her bed, with bullet hole in her
head and the bedclothes drenched with
blood. At first the horror seemed likely to
remain q mystery, till the little grand
daughter, whom fright for long time rem
dered mute, said that she awoke about II
o clock the night before, and saw two men
in the room whom she readily recognized
as John Taylor and his son William. She
knew their presence meant mischief, and
she quietly covered herself up with the bed
clothes She heard the rife shot that killed
her grandmother, but was paralyzed, and
so gave no sign. The men did not discover
her.
At once the father and son were placed
under arrest. The prisoners were taken
from the officers, carried to the woods and
hung to tree. The crowd remained only
long enough to complete their work, as they
supposed. By some agency - possibly
through defect in the rope-the old man
was allowed to fall to the ground shortly
after the mob left, and there he lay for
several hours He finally recovered the use
of his limbs, but not of his mind, and went
wandering. He was recaptured and es-
capped. He made for Illinois and found
safety in the swamps of Egypt for nearly a
year. Thence he went to Cooper. County,
Mo-, thence to Kansas, thence back to south.
west Missouri, thence to Burbane County
Kansas, thence to Vernon County, Mo,
where he made his final settlement, neaI
the town OF Nevada Vernon County. Al
each of the above places he spent year OF
two, leading the wretched life ofasqg9atter
but at the last place he met with SOME sue
cess in tilling patch of ground. There he
was detected. He has a daughter living in
Kentucky, and five sons-in-law some o.
whom live in Missouri.-[St. Louis Repub

THE ARAR S'EEED.

A writer says of the Arab horse: Reared
under an open she'd, and early habituated
to the sight of man, to the sound and gilt
ter of weapons and to all the accessories of
human life, the colt grows up free from
vice or timidity, and even acquires degree
of intelligence that surprises a stranger.
Barley and dates are the chief provender;
but the grass of the pasture grounds, in
the selection Of which much care is taken,
is the ordinary nourishment of an Arab
horse. or water the allowance is always
kept purposely scant. A good Nejdee will
canter four-and dtwenty hours in summer
time, and eight andforty in winter, with
out once requiring drink. Raw meat,
dried, is occasionally given in small guam
titles when extra exertion is required;
lucerne grass is employed for lowering the
tone. Geldings are very rare. The color
that most frequently occurs is gray; then
comes the chestnut; then white and sor-
rel; mottled gray and black are now and
then to be found; dark bay never.
Colts are ridden early--too early, in
deed-in their third or even second year,
and are soon broken into steady walk or
canter, and to the ambing pace which is the
especial favorite with Arab riders. Racing,
an Arab amusement from time immemorial, :,
and the game of "jerzed," kind Of tour
nament, or mock-fght, with blunt palm
sticks, highly popular throughout the
peninsula, complete the training as to wind
and pace. Saddles are seldom used in
Nejd, and stirrups never; but both are
occasionally employed in Hijaz and Ye-
man. So it is also with bts-the place of
which is taken in Nejd by halter ropes,
the real guidance of the animal being al
most wholly effected by the pressure Of the
riders leg and knee. Shoes, too, are of
rare occurrence, nor are they needed in the
, light, sand-mixed soil Of the the central
provinces. On the other hand, the hoofs
are often rubbed with grease, to coun-
teract the drying effects of the heated
ground.
OF fall the niceties of grooming, docking
and clipping excepted, the Arabs are mas
ters; and their natural kindness to ami
mals-a quality which they share with
most Orientals, together with the care
every reasonable man bestows on valua-
bic article Of property-nsures to an
Arab horse good treatment at the hands
of its owner. But Arab horses do not
commonly enter tents, nor play with wo-
men and children; nor, in a general way,
10 they share the family meal, nor are
they habitually kissed and cried over, as
the imagination of some narrator has sug-
gested. An Arab riding for life has, in
deed, been known to give his only morse.
of bread to his horse rather than eat il
himself-an act in which self.preseryation
had as large share as affection. Lastly
the standing prohibition of horse-seIling
from Nejd has really nothing more ro.
mantle in it than narrowminded applca.
ton of the principles ofproteetive monopo.
y; in other cases, reluctance to conclude a
bargain simply indicates that the offer made
was insufficient.

Round the coast of the island of Ceylon,
in the Indian Ocean, may be found musical
fish. Their song-if it can be called song
is not one sustained note like birds,
but multitude of tiny, soft, sweet sounds,
each clear and distinct in itself, something
like the vibrations of wineglass when its
rim is rubbed by moistened finger. In
the harbor of Bombay there is another
species of fish, producing sound like an
Eolian harp. >"

party, Benjamin's antecedents are not
calculated to make him pre-eminent.
He never ate a great deal of bread that
was favored by the sweat of his brow,
and never has shown any hankering after
that kind of diet. Would he simply part
his name in the middle, as thus: B.

voters into the belief that he inherited
some of the traditional virtues of his

square in the face, with no ulterior de-

! CONDOR TIE FENIAN CUNNICT.
LONDON, August 30.-The correspond
ence between United States Minister Welsh
and Lord Salisbury in regard to Condor,
| the Fenian convict, is published. Welsh,
under date OF August Sth, reminds Sails
bury that former appeals for the release
OF the Fenian Condor have been refused.
but since then the action OF the British
Government has brought it so much honor
that he (Wesh thought the moment
might possibly be particularly agreed
bic one for the exercise OF clemency,
and specially in answer to the prayer OF 4
friendly Government, which has shown so
deep an interest in the case as to have
already pressed the prayer three times, and
would doubtless continue to do so, but
always most respectfully, until it is grant
ed. The belief in the United States is that
Condor, an ardent IriShman, who served
most honorably in the American war, was
victim Of circumstances in his wrong
doing, and, having been eleven years in
prison and learned wisdom, may well be
restored to his family in the United States.
| Mr.. Welsh concludes by saying that he
believes the release Of Condor would be
regarded by the President and the Congress
| OF the United States as 4 most friendly act.
| Under date Of August 10th Lord Salisbury
replies that the Cabinet has carefully con-
sidered the request Of Minister Welsh and
| the fact that Condon's health is suffering
seriously, and has been strongly moved to
| look upon the application in most favora-
! BILE light in consequence OF its being one to
which the President and Congress attach
| great Importance. The Cabinet will there
| fore recommend that her Majesty remit the
remainder of the sentence Of Condor, and,
as a necessary consequence, the remainder
of the sentence OF Melody, who was con-
victed Of the same offence, under such con-
ditions as her Majesty may be pleased to
prescribe, one OF which will be the resi-
dence of the released prisoners outside Of
the British domininns for the remainder OF
the sentence. or for such shorter period as
may be fixed.
