Elsewhere in to-day's Gazette will be found
an account, clipped from the Aberdeen EN-
amner, of Il murder committed i'm Nississip-
pi by Nigo County murderer who escaped
from the prison at Jacksonville, TO which
he had been sentenced Tor life. 1t proves To
be one Piney, at least that is the name he
went by here, who, with "a confederate mann

cold blooded murder of DR.. Armstrong. In
stead of being hanged aud so put out Of the
way, he was sentenced by a Soit-headed jury
to the penitentiary for life He escaped OF

probability have been pardoued. Thousands
of people more ar less fools who mistake
soft heads for soft hearts-this class is chief
ly made up of wOmen-are never thoroughly
aroused to action until they find some
miserable scoundrel who has murdered
good man and wrecked the happiness of q
family. When they find such an one serv-
ing out a sentence in the penitentiary in
stead Of in warmer place they are always
on hand with petitions for pardons and pleas
for clemency. With them the only flower

How It Was.
DEATH OF ALBERT SIDNEY JOHNSON.

DEATH OF ALBERT SIDNEY JOHNSON.
On Sunday, the 9th of April, 1862, John
son, with his eager army began his fatal
fight He handled his ardent army with
brilliant skill and impetuosity. Whenever
there was a pause in the onward movement
he led the charge in person. To those who
saw him that day as the writer did, in all
the glorious fever of that delirious success
mounted upon magnificent Steed, his mas
sive figure seeming to enlarge to gigantic
size with the ardor of battle, his face af1ame
with his indomitable spirit of fight, he was
the ideal embodiment of the fiery essence of
war.
He threw himself with reckless indiffer-
ence into danger. And the last charge that
broke the Federal position was led by him
in person, under perfect blaze of flame and
hail, his horse shot in four places, his clothes
pierced, his footsole cut by a minie but his
person untouched. 1t was in this supreme
moment of victorious onset, a decisive
grasp, that a fatal bullet struck him-a small
wound under his knee, severing the popliteal
artery.
Gov. Harris, of Tennessee, who was on his
staff. rode up to him, seeing him reel i'll his
saddle, and holding him steady asked ::
General, are you wounded I" He replied
deliberately and with emphasis: ayes, aud
| fear seriously" He was lifted to the
ground. His boot was full of blood, and the
life current pouring out beyond recall. He
never spoke again. Gen. Preston knelt
beside him and asked him passionately :
''Gen johnson, do you know me?' Gen.
johnson smiled family. Lying in a ravine
out of the range of merciless bullets, he was
dead in a twinkling.
Could Gen. johnson have had immediate
medical attention, he would have survived.
His staff surgeon was DR.. David Yandell, of
Kentucky, and was away from him under
circumstances that constitute the most
touching and beautiful features of this
romantic death The Federals in retreating
left, of course, their wounded behind. In
riding forward Gen johnson came across
squad of wounded Federal officers and sol
diers. Stopping, he kindly addressed them
and asked if any were badly wounded. Then
turning to his staff he remarked: at nearly
breaks my heart to see men in that uniform
suffering Doctor" addressing Yandell, edo
stop and see if you can do something for
these poor fellows"
DR.. Yandell stopped on his humane
mission and Gen. johnson owed his death
to the absence of skill and instruments,
and this absence was due to his tender
humanity to the wounded foe-a humanity
the more striking because it was exhibited
in all the excitement of battle.

VanderbiIts Millions.
ithaca Journal

Ithaca Journal.
Some one has made a curious calculation
of what Mr.. Vanderbilt could do with his
money. William II. Vanderbilt's income
from his investments in SOL 600, 900 per
cent. government bonds is represented at
$4,000 daily, which is $20S 25 per hour,
So Al per minute, or ) cents per second.
Assuming that he is paid by the second, he
cannot possibly spend his money, as he could
select his purchases and lay down the pieces
fast enough. He could not throw it away /,
to pick up, cast, recover, pick up, cast again
would take two seconds, and if he worked
all through the twenty-four hours without
rest he could only dispose of one-half his
income. By living economically, saving up
4or four years, he could, placing his five cent
pieces side by side make a nickle belt around
the earth, or by converting his savings into
cent pieces and mounting them in a pile
he could in twenty years erect road to the
moon, and have $500 to invest when he got
there. Should his amusement take a char
liable twist, he could out of years receipts
donate twenty cents to every man, woman
and child in the United States, and have
money left over. Other vast possibilities
occur to the glowing fancy of the calcula-
tor. In one day he could GO to 5000 differ
ent circuses. eat 10000 pints of peanuts,
drink 5000 glasses of lemonade, and have
money left to get his boots BACKED. He
can afford to have 10000 shirts washed in
one day, and on the day of his death his
income will buy ten first-class funerals.

CAMPBELL, j., dissenting.

| Held
/. The only question ID as to the rule by
which the value of the goods sold is to be
| arrived at.
/ The seller did not appeal, therefore it is
unnecessary to decide whether it was right
to disregard the prices agreed on at the time
of the delivery Of the articles. He alone
could complain of that.
2 1t is true that Lensfield was obligated
to furnish the goods at reasonable rates,
! but the customary rates at which goods are
sold under similar circumstances determines
what is reasonable The law does not deal
. in theories as to value but regards it a
practical question to be settled by actual
/ transactions and the opinions of those en-
gagged in them. 1t has no standard of value.
B. The profit which may be made on sales
I is left by the law to the agreement of the
parties, and that is to be ascertained by evil
dence of what is the customary price. What
is accepted as right among many having an
tagonistic interests, may be accepted by
courts as the nearest approximation to the
right which is attainable
4. The mention by the decree, of "the
class of people" contracted with, had no ref
erence to race, color or previous condition.
The direction was merely to ascertain the
the customary rates in the kind of credit
business which this was, and that was right.
Customary rates as to the value of the
goods should prevail just as in the case of
the rent of lands, professional services, or
any thing else.
). The doctrnce announced by the MAORI
tv. that a reasonable price is such as under
all the circumstances shall appear to be rea-
sonable, il accepted as correct. But we must
be guided to a decision by the evidence, and
not by some speculative standard and the
only evidence of value must be customary
rates circumstances alter cases" and all
the circumstances are to be considered IN
wing at what is a reasonable value.
G. The system Of executing mortgages on
crops to be grown for the purpose of secur-
ing the means of production is regarded as a
pernicious one, but it must be dealt with as
we find it.

cies as to make the hazards great, and justi-
fies a profit which in other circumstances
might be regarded as shockingiy exorbitant.
This element of uncertainty, among other
circumstances, has eXerted an important IN
fence in determining the scale of prices and
establishes the prevalent custom as shown
by the evidence.
7. There being a prevalent custom to sell
goods at high prices in such business, it may
be assumed to have been the contemplation
of the parties that the goods should be sold
at the prices usual in that kind of business.

determination Of what were proper prices in
this case.

How Gen McMaekin Got Even With
the Legislature

Washington cor. Chicago Times
Gen. McMackin who died recently, was
well knoSa all through Mississippi as a
hotel keeper. He was a perfect character
in his way, and had acquired as much repu-
tation from his peculiarities as from his
well-kept country hotel. He had a profound
contempt for the Mississippi State Legisia>
ture, from the fact that he had once wanted
an office in the gift of the legislature, and
they had given it to some one else. A
prominent southern politician who stopped
at Gen. McNIackins hotel, 4 short time
before his death, said that he was much
surprised on going down to dinner to hear
loud voice from the dining calling,
''Oh, here's your nice mock turtle soup
Oh, here's your nice mock>turtle SOUP
The gentleman, on entering the dining-room
found that it was Gen, McMackin himself,
who was thus announcing his bill of fare.
As each course was brought on the General
announced it in the same way, and in
rhyme whenever practicable. Like this for
instance: Here's your lamb and ham, your
jelly and JAM"
After dinner the politician entered into
conversation with the General, and asked
him during the course of it why he called
his bill of fare out in that way, instead OF
having it printed "Well," replied the
General, 1.-The fact is; it is for the benefit OF
the members of the Mississippi State legis-
lature. A great many of them come here
from time to time, and, as so few of them
can read, l have found that my easiest way
was to announce my bill of fare as you have
hea I'd me-"

may here observe that the tide of poll

The New Bible.

The revised translation of the Bible is
now complete, and viii be published in
a few months. The work has been I'M
der way for ten years in Europe and
eight in America. The best scholars
of all ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Catholic per-
haps excepted-have been engaged on
it. 1t is not 50 much a new translation
as a revision Of the King james YER
sion Those who anticipate new and
radical rendering are likely to be disap-
pointed Men engaged in the work
say it is surprising how few errors were
found and how few the changes that
will be made in the common version.
There will, however, be enough differ
ence to arouse curiosity and excite con-
troversy, and we suspect the Bible viii
be more widely read next year than at
any time since Tyndall was burned at
the stake for rendering it into the Eng
lish tongue, and that was exactly 500
years ago. The world has moved since
that memorable event.
