for Congress bat for disseusious IN
the ranks that could not be healed
III heath recently prevented HIM
from mainai. ing the position,
and rivals sprAnE up, defeating
his aspirations. The last effort Of
his life was an eloquent speech at
Pottsville, advocating an indepen-
dent movement to restore harmO-
ny by a reconstruction in advance
of the county convention. He was
in the prime Of life, bad been mar

HANGING ARNOLD
And the Arnold Jury i'm If
Iigy at Richmond, lay.
Special to tho Courier Journal.

Special to the Courier-J Journal. :
RICHMOND, Sept. 2.-The Jessa-
mine county Arnold jury, together
with the Sheriff and Jailor Of that
county. were hung in effigy here to-
day. Placards were put upon their
breasts with their respective names
inscribed thereon, and the amount
Of filthy lucre each one is supposed
to have received in the sellout. A
conspicuous character was that of
Bro. Denman, she psalm.singer, who
visited his brother Arnold in prison.
Another was the superseryiceable
TAILOR, who danced in such mental
attendance upon his lordly guest
during the trial, to the disgust of
every decent citizen. Stipes, one Of
the jurors, is set down at the low
price of one drink. They were sus-
pended in a line upon long rope,
attached at either end to the trees,
being the same from which two men
were hung in *. X. times. Above
the effigies was suspended a large
sheet bearing the inscription Jim
Arnold's jury" Crowds Of people
came during the day and viewed
with evident satisfaction the weird,
significant scene. The excitement
and indignation over the outrageous
verdict appear to increase day by
day as the honest cOuntrymen come
to town and agitate the subject. a
tremendous indignation meeting
will be held here on Monday next,
court day, when the good citizens of
our whole county will have the OPP
portunity of giving expression to
their feelings of condemnation at
the preparation of this damnable
wrong.
ANOTHER REPORT.
RICHMOND, Sept. 2.-The jury,
Sheriff and Jailor in the Arnold case
were hung in effigy last night. and
are still swinging to the breeze in
the courthouse yard. The name of
each is pinned on his coat, and the
price he received as a bride. The
Sheriff received the highest amount,
S1,400; the Jailor next, 5000; Farra
received the highest amount of any
of the jurymen, $500; HORNE came
next with $500. From this amount

and that was given to Stipes. They
all have on new suits, and are strung
up in row with a large sign above,
them, with slim Arnold's Jury"
painted on it. Z. T. Barnum should
get that Jessamine jury and show it
as one of the (twelye) wonders of tie
nineteenth century.
PTBTTC OPINION
JOHNSON JUNCTION, Sept 81
met &. J. Bronston, Commonwealth
Attorney of the Tenth Judicial Dis
trict, to-day at the Lexington Fair,
and in a long conversation he in
formed me that public opinion was
decidedly against the jury's verdict
in the Arnold-Little trial. He left
Richmond this morning, and on his
way out of town passed under four
teen ef1igies strung over the princi-
pal street, each body appropriately
labeled, twelve of the figures repre-
senting the jury, one James II. Ar
mold, the murderer of Robert E.
Little, and the fourteenth, the Sher-
if of Jessamine county, Lewis john
son. A large label in the center of
the group bore this inscription ::
"These culprits will hang all day."
