A Danville, Va, dispatch Of the 4th in
slant says that in accordance with the above
decision, Judge Rives has ordered a writ for
the arrest of County Judges Coles, Parish
and others for trial at his Court in Lynch.
burg, at the March term. ..
In a case from Tennessee, of revenue of.
fcer charged with committing murder while
in the discharge of his duties as such officer,
the Supreme Court decides that the accused.
whether on the charge of murder or any 9th
er crime against the State, if committed in
the discharge of his official duties, he may
of his own motion, be tried in the Circuit
Court of the United States, and State
Court cannot try him.
These opinions, especially in the last named
case, are the subject of much comment in le'
gal and political circles, some persons even
expressing the belief that they may moment
ously affect the destinies of the Republic in
the near future. Hon. j. Randolph Tucker,
perhaps the ablest lawyer in the House OF
Representatives, has recently reviewed these
decisions, and his opinions, critically render
ed are entitled to the most serious considers
ton. Summing up the results, he says that
the Federal Courts strip from the State
Courts jurisdiction over crimes committed
against State In the Coles case Federal
Judge drags State Judge from the seat Of
Justice and arraigns him at his bar for the
trial of his motives under the probe of q pre-
sumption of guilt which it would be we'll
nigh impossible for the accused to rebut The
principles of the decision sanction the posses
sion Of power by Congress, which, pressed to
it's legitimate consequence, would put all off,
GERS Of the State government under the su-
pervision of the Federal Court and subject
all the State officers to criminal prosecutions
before Federal juries. If these decisions,
said Mr. Tucker, are not arrested by public
opinion, the federation system is at an end,
and centralized, absolute government is at
hand.
Mr.. Tucker characterizes Judge Fields
dissenting opinion as strikingly able and
marked by a judicial eloquence which re-
minds one of the halcyon early days of the
Supreme Bench The constitutional princi-
Piles expounded by him are luminous and
splendidly put. They present, he declared, a
rallying ground for the defenders of States
rights 10 their imminent contest against the
menace of consolidation and empire.

urged before the Supreme Court that the
proceedings could no longer be maintained

to facilitate the collection of taxes, although
the Act had been passed after the filing o.
the petition of Douglass & Jackson. The

A hunt was organized and the villain cap
tured on Sunday morning, by mixed white
and black posse. He was taken to the scene
of the outrage and identified by his victim
A vote of the posse was taken and it was de-
cided not to lynch him, but to allow the law
to take its course. Kinder was then taken to
Georges Station and placed in the guard
house under strong guard. Monday morn.
ing he was sent to Walterboro Jail, still
strongly guarded. On their way to Walter.
boro the guard was overpowered by an armed
force, consisting, it is ssid largely of relatives
of the outraged lady, and the prisoner was
conveyed to secluded spot in the woods,
where he was kept till night. About 9 o'clock
that night he was again confronted with the
lady whom he had outraged, and again iden-
tilted. He was again taken to the woods,
where preparations were made to hang him.
At the last moment he confessed the crime,
and also confessed to similar outrage upon a
colored woman in Newberry six years ago.
He further acknowledged the killing of a
colored girl near Kingstree last April, and
confessed to four burglaries and innumerable
thefts. At 1890 o'clock he was hanged, and

L
At the session Of the Philsdslphia
Ministerial Union on Monday, Rev. J
N. P. OTIS, d. D., formerly Of thit
city, read an interesting paper on eth,
importance Of Tsxtual Preaehipg. y
The sssayist held that sermons in ,el.
tion to their texts may be divided inta
three general classes: Topical, textutl
and expositsry. A topical sermon ia
one in which a single leading idea con-
tainsd in the toxt 10 sxelusively dis.
ouss4d. There may be other thoughts
embraced in ths text or suggested by II
bat they are Aot brought under disous-
sion. One leading Idea. doctrine or q
precept is chosen and developed in
logical order and by strie. rhetorical
point Of view the topical discOarse is
the model sermon.
Tae expository sermon he defined &c
enc In which section of scripture, q
chapter or part Of a chapter, is sxpoun.
dsd. Saoh Discourse ia more 0l . les.
ture than sermon and iS the opinion
OF the reader iS more suitable for the
lecture room than the pulpit. "HoH,"
ne continued, "jnst midway between
the topical and expoaitory stands the
textuSl sermon, paTtaking OF the ma.
ture Of both in certain features OF its
composition. 1t is sermon in which
the whole sru.h contained in 4 given
passage is brought under discussion,
and the tsKt itsslt 10 broken mp by its
prominent cianses or successive
thoughta TO fRrnish the division of the
discourse. It is depository because IL
10 the exposition Of given text, and
IL is topical because the main idea of
the text Is made tbs topic OF discussion,
and 1t ia texiual because the text itlelf
is made 10 furnish the division or sub
heads Of the disco drse." After giving
a lumber Of examples Of tsEtual ser
mons and enumersting occasions when
1t Is proper TO reach topical and expos
itoIy discoures, Or. OTIS said: "At
every sacrifice Of rhetorical style and
oratorical rules-whsn zach sacrifices
are neoessary-let us preach the word
OF Christ and the Christ OF the word,
and this can be done only BY teztual
preashins, giving The word OF the
Spirit and the spirit Of the word"
He then considered the abuses OF tex
tusl preaching. The ssssyist closed
with Bome sound advice. Every time
we rise TO the pulpit" he said, "let
us remember tina. We srS there to pre- ach
Gods word rs revealed to us In the
inspired text. Therefore il is Our sole |
business as preachers to unfold and
ezpound the inspired text; TO preach
the tex. textually; to preach the text,
the whole text, and nothing bat the
text. Whsn We understand this we |
will know that our position in the pull
pit ia far more solemn and more full
Of feAr.pl responsibility than that Of
. witness on the the stand and under
oath, giving his testimony on q capital
trial before high court Of Justice"
