NEW YORK, Dec. 4.-Wm. c. Gilman, who was
sentenced in 1877 to five years in the state
prison for forgery, and whose case attracted
much attention at the time from his social
standing and the confession made by the priS-
oner, was yesterday released from Sing Sing,
Gov. Robinson having commuted his sentence
from five years to two years, one month and
influential persons Of New York city had been
presented to the governor for Gilmans pardon,
which he declined to grant, and also the re-
quest later OF eX-Gov. Horatio Seymour. Pre-
Sumably in consequence of Gilmans additional
weight Of woe in the death Of his daughter and
wife, he has now consented to this special COM
mutation. 1t is generally supposed the gov

by reading notice Of the death of Mrs. Gilman,

READJCSTERS SECURE A WORKING MAJORITY IN
BOTH HoUsES-THE GOVERNORS MESSAGE.
The general assembly OF Virginia met In Rich
mond yesterday at noon In its first biennial SeS-
sion under the recent amendment of the consti-
tuition. All Of the senators were present, and in
the house 9S out of 100 delegates answered to
their names. The work OF organization was at
once progressed with, the readjusterS electing
all the officers in both houses, as nominated by
them in caucus. Tuesday night. The majoritieS
by which the officers of the House were elected
ranged from 16 to IS, while in the senate they
ranged from 8 to 13, showing an average joint
majority of % for the readjusters. After the
perfection of an organization joint committee
waited on Governor Holiday to inform him OF
the fact, and he soon thereafter sent In his mes
sage. The document is nearly wholly devoted
to a discussion OF the public debt. He fully en-
dorseS the settlement made during the last seS-
sion, known as the McCulloch bill, and states
that, notwithstanding all the agitation looking
to a repeal OF the measure, which had ten
dency to check the bringing in OF the
old bonds, nearly IS, 800, 600 Of old bonds
He says: "My views are very clear and decided
that the money represented In the interest, or
even the principal Of the debt, large as it is is
OF but little import in comparison with the
states credit, and that nothing save inability
can justify or excuse its non-payment." The
Governor thinks there is no need OF reSortfng to
an increase of taxation to accomplish so grand
an object the fulf1lment OF the states obliga-
ttons and the preservation OF her credit;but with
revenues will meet the requirements of the act,
and leave handsome surplus in the treasury.
The readjusters' large majority on joint ballot
juStifleS the assertion that clean sweep VIII be
made of all the fncumbentS. The republicans,
except four voted with the readjuSterS.

the white girl, and it made him feel badly to
think that he could never marry her. l have
seen Ouray follow her around and watch over
her as If she was a child. He would do any,
thing to please her. Ouray's sister knew that
her brother loved the Meeker.f family and so took
good care that no harm should come to them.
/ was there when the women were brought
up to the Meeker girl and shook her hand for an

you.' / learn now that he is doing all in his
