Dead, or i'm Custody.

In our last issue we gave an account
of the New Madrid horror-thg killing
of young Faforge. and the wounding of
several other pursuers, by a party of
desperadoes, who were fleeing from
justice. We had no apprehension then
that the next and concluding chapter
of the tragedy would be enacted at our
very doors, but expected to next hear
that the murderers were fleeing to
some distant, unsettled section. But
last Friday the news came over the
wires that Collector Hatton and Sheriff
Davis, Of Wayne county, had been
severely wounded or killed near Green
willie by the New Madrid outlaws. The
particulars, which followed next day,
were about as follows:
Thursday night a man went to Mr..
Benefits store In Greenville and
bought two pairs of shoes. stating that
his partner had gone down to wake up
the ferryman. Friday morning Mr..
Bennett informed Sheriff Davis of his
visit, and he, thinking perhaps that
the men were the New Madrid out
laws, took Mr.. Hatton, the ex-Sheriff,
and went out to inquire as to the direc-
ton they had gone and to get more
minute description of them. About
one mile from Greenville they came on
to the two men at house of u man by
the name of Lee. They got off their
horses, and being satisfied that the
mon inside were the persons they were
after, stepT ed in the door; but, strange
to shy. they did not have their weapons
in their hands ready for instand use,
and when they ordered their supposed
game to arise from the table where
they were seated eating breakfast, they
did arise, but with pistols in hands and
firing. Davis was shot down in the

What may be accomplished by bra
zen pretender is illustrated In the case
of w. III. Chase, Of Midway, Mass. He
arrived in that town an utter stran-
ger two years ago, without letters OF
introduction or any other means of
gaming favor than his own resources.
He gave out that he was wounded
veteran officer of the army, sx-member
of Gen. Howard's staff, son of . cler-
gyman, ex-editor of the Chicago Inter-
Ocean, and ex-Secretary of the United
States senate Committee on Commerce.
He was at once made principal OF the
high school, and allowed to take 3
leading position in the Congregation al
Church. He preached in neighboring
churches, and became superintendent
of Sunday school. He went into pol
itics too, and was q popular stump
speaker during the last Presidential
canvass. About this time he was ar
rested on an old char e of swindiing,
but managed to hide the scandal by
paying the claim. When the crack
military company of Boston, the Fusi-
Ieers, recently visited Washington, it
was 'Col. Chase, q wounded hero OF
Gettysburg" who presented them to
Garfield. About this time he secured
an increase Of salary from the School
Board by representing that he had
been offered the private secretaryship
to Secretary Window, but this has
caused his downfall. Somebody wrote
to Window, and the lie was exposed.
Then proof was secured that Chase
had never been on Gen. Towards
staff, o. editor Of the Inter- Ocean, or
secretary OF q Senate committee. FL
nally he has fled from Midway under
charges Of criminal conduct.

The fight between Conkling and the

and no man can tell what the outcome
will be. The stalwarts claim that
Conkling's and Platt's reelection is

The Circuit Judgeship.


 As our readers have already been informed the nomination of Judge E. c. Billings to the office of Judge of the Circuit Court of the Fifth Circuit of the United States was made to the Senate on Monday. This nomination was anticipataa. The office is one of impor- tance and the proper fulfillment of it's duties quirement, experience, aptitude for the dis cussion and determination of legal questions, 8 sense of judicial responsibility and fidelity in the performance of official obligations. The range of the jurisdiction of this officer extends from the Atlantic coast of Florida, and includes all the States on the Gulf of Mexico to the Rio Grande. It embraces nearly all of the judicial power of the United States in it's first application to cases arising within the courts of the United States within those limits.
 Judge Billings has had in the District and Circuit Courts of the United States in Lou isiana wide and varied experience in cases of equity, admiralty, and arising under the pen al code of the United States. No such op- portunity has existed in any other courts within the circuit. His administration in those courts has been uniformly orderly, dis erect and exact. He has shown in his opin- ions and judgments research, discrimination, carefulness and ability. The administration of the criminal laws has been just and human; political has been conducted without asperity or partis an bias.
 We think he has fully earned his promo ton by the merit of his services in past years, and we are sure that the nomination was expected and is approved by the public. We trust the confirmation will be prompt and unanimous.

SS0IRn.',

To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 In the discussion for and against endless punishment, it is evident that the whole question hinges on the meaning of the He brew word "Olam,'' rendered everlasting, forever. As we are somewhat familiar with this word ''Olam" in our readings, allow us to present the word as it occurs in several passages which escape the English reader, being usually translated (t'of old'O Nigh ty men from everlasting (Olam) Gen. 6, 4. Nations from everlasting (Olam) Sam. 27-S. People of everlasting (Olam) Ezek. 26. 20. O, Lord, thy name is from everlasting (Olam) Isa 6, 16 In Isaiah 32d chapter, 18th to 17th verses, we find that the Hand of Israel should become a wilderness her palaces, forts and towers shall be for dens forever, (Olam) until the Spirit be poured out upon us from on high, then the wilderness would become fruitful and righteousness, peace and assur- ance forever, (Olam)." This seems to signify in brief that the land of Israel should go in to everlasting punishment, until the Spirit is poured out, then it should enter into life ev- erlsst1ng.
 The above passages quoted indicate that we have no scriptural warrant to apply the words endless and eternal to punishment and sin only to God and righteousness. B.

If Secretary Schurz or his trusty hench- men in the Interior department imagine that they can better their case in the Ponca con- troversy by sending misleading statements to the press they are mistaken.

 Instead of picking cotton from the bolls, as is now done, s. R. Cockrill of Pine Bluff, Arkansas, vice president of the Cotton Planters Association, proposes to pull up the cotton stalks in October and November and run them through three machines which he has invented. These machines are to turn out the stalks ready for conversion into fiber, the bo1ls for the mill that makes them into brown paper and the seed cotton for the Clement attachment that spins it into yarn worth $1O0 bale. One objection to this wholesale treatment of the crop is that the plant frequently bears at the same time the form, the bloom, the ripening and open bolIs, and, in favorable winter, like that of 1879 : 80, picking goes on in the field until after cold weather has come. In such an unfa- vorable season as the last however, much would have been gained by pulling the cot ton stalks and shocking them, as it is sug- gested that partly matured bolls will open af- ter the stalks have been pulled
