Alexandria Democrat :: The colored
tiend, Sam Travis, who killed Mr.. Hanna
some time since in cold blood, and who
has been tried and convicted by jury
of his peers, of murder in the first de-
gree, the peualty for which is death. was
brought before Judge Barbin on Satur-
day morning last and sentenced. The
crowd attracted by this thought ne
doubt that the scene to be enacted would
be affecting, for such al occurrence has
not happened in Rapides in a number OF
years. When asked by the Judge if he
had anything to say why tue sentence of
death should not be pronounced upon
him. he tnade rather long narrative of
the facts concerned, Ia q very cool man
nered way, without showing the least
rneasiness of mind. Judge Barbn then
sentenced him to death, which he re.
ceived with the utmost disregard.

to promenade through our streets while

enquiries made by a correspondent of

tine at Memphis, Vicksburg, Natchez,
Baton Rouge and other important points.
Memphis Is very pretty city, and so is
}ieksburg, but n is a dilapidated
old place. Many of the other towns
along the route looked neglected and
in badeondition. Baton Rouge is one
of the pFettlest little cities | have ever
been in. The flowers there are abundant
aud look very beautiful aud the people
there are generally very obligipg and
accommodating, When person walks
along the streets adniring the
flowers in the yards, as soon as the iu-
habitants see you are a stranger they'll
inqnire If you "want q fower!" and
pluck the flowers you select and hand
them to you. Yes, sir, Baton Rouge is
one OF the handsomest little places in
this country"
