PRYOR coLEmAN,s SENTENCE
COmmuted TO imprisonment Ia The
PenIGeEtIRry for Life.

AOE 1lAes
The case of Pryor n. Coleman, the
murderer of Miss Ann Bell in this
county during the war, is finally dis
posed of as we learn from the Atlanta
papers. The checkered career of Cole
man is, no doubt, known in outline to
our readers, and it is useless to repro
duce it here. He spent several years in
the Knoxville Jail, until about three
months since, after the decision of
his case by the United States Supreme
Court, remandiDg him 10 the military
authorities, he was taken to Atlanta,
the nearest military post, and has
been there at the barracks ever since.
The fnsl disposition of his fate Is an
order from President Hayes, bearing
date Of June 9Th, directing that The
death sentence pronounced by the
military court martial be committed
to i'm Imprisonment for life in she Alba
ny IN. " State peGi,entiary. He is
to be taken there i'm a short time anu
put in confinement, aud from that
time his name aad notoriety will fade
from memory, unless, perehance, q
pardon should at some future time re-
vive ii temporarily.
The Atlanta papers represent Cole
man as rather depressed in spirits and
just recovering froGa what promised to
be serious illDess.
They also indulge in some sensa-
ti0naI statements to the effect that "he
has often begged his jailers to end his
suspense by shooting him" This is
news in these parts, as is also the state
ment that he leaves wife and child
in this State.

Many of onr readers have doubt
lesss heard Of the famous travelling
stones of Australia. Similar curios,
tiles have recently been found in
Nevada, which are described as 81
most perfectly rouad, the majority
Of them are as big as a walnut, and
Of an irony nature. When distribu.
Ted about the floor. table or other
level surface, within two or three
feet of each other, they Immediately
begin travelling toward commoa
center, and there lie huddied up in
bunch like lot Of eggs in nest.
A single stone removed the distance
Of three and half feet, upon being
released, at once started off with
wonderful and somewhat comical ce
Ierity, to join it's follows taken
away four or FIVE feet it remained
motionleas. They are found in a
region that is comparatively level,
and is nothing but bare rock. Scat
tered over this barren region are lit
lie basins, from few feet TO rod
or,two 10 diameter, and it is in the
bottom Of these that the rolling
stones are found They are from
the size Of pea to five or six inch,

stones rolling together is doubtless to
be found il the material of which
they are composed, which appears
to DO lode stone magnetic iron ore.
