The GaIlOws i'm Kentucky.

CINCINNATI, Feb 24.-John Ma.
ior Hicks, a colored man, born in
Boyd county, KY, in 1862. was
hanged at COvington, Ky, today.
The execution was the second one
ever had in Kenton county, and was
the first quasi private execution in
the State of Kentucky. It is likely
to be the last, as the law requiring
executions in an inclosure has just
been repealed. The condemned mln
was brought on the sacfllold attend.
ed by Father Mckinley, Father
Lambert ard two other priests.
They knelt and prayed auiibly, the
prisoner repeating after Father Nc
Ginley The Lords Prayer and the
Apostolic Cleed. After this he was
brought to the platform, where he
shook hands with tie priests. Then
Father Lambert came TO tie font
ard, addressing the 800 spectators
admitted said: Mr.. Hicks will
say nothing | speak for him. He
takes his death as punishment Tor
his sins" The black cap was then
adjusted, Hicks all the while weep

Oh! lord. have mercy" The prie-ts

A Beautiful Girl Sacrificed TO an
Epileptic Prince.


The bride Of Prince Leopold is sis
ter to the Queen of Holland, and she
gave the wedding dress, which was
remarkable for the costly lace and
silver embroidery upon it. The train
of white satin was Of immense length
and borne by titled attendants, and
the splendid looking young girl was a
picture Of physical beauty as she stood
in stately fashion before the clergy
massed behind the altar rails. The
bridegroom presented a striking con-
trast as he stood leaning on his stick,
with which he walked to the altar.
He is an epileptic and subject to vic.
lent conyulsions. OF late | e has been
severely i'll, and at one time it was
thought that the marriage would
have to be postponed because
of his condition. The inequality OF
health between the two contracting
parties has been the theme of no little
unkind comment, and simple folk who
believe that those tainted with incur.
able maladies should never marry
have not been disposed to view this
wedding with favor. The parents Of
the bride may have concluded that a
sick prince is better than none, and SC
gave their daughter to be his wife; but
disinterested spectators Of the gor'
geous scene at Windsor yesterday, al
we'll as Indifferent readers everywhere
view the marriage with feelings O
regret. The bride has given hel
youth and splendid endowment o
health, physical and mental, to a de
crepid prince, whose taint Of scrofulI
and epilepsy will curse his life, ant
mar the offspring that may result from
this marriage.

THERE may be a few Democrats in
Tennessee who are cooperating with
Hawkins, Butler, Houk, ct al, in their
attempt to continue in control of the
State. If such there be they are
working for selfish purposes and ex-
pecting reward and official spoils at
the hands of the Federal or State gov
eminent. They belong naturally to
the class spoken Of in Proverbs as the
foolish ones" They will walk into
a trap from whence there is no escape.
The Republicans know how to Aatter
them and lead them to point whence
it will be impossible to retrace their
steps. Such persons ought to know
and would if they were not blind as
moles, that the Republicans are max
ing tools Of them, using their paws
as it were, to pull the chestnuts out
of the fire. But when the hot chest
nuts Of Office are pulled out of the fire
and have cooled off who will get themi
Republicans of course, and then there
will not be half enough to 60 around
The proposed three cheers for State
Credit Democrats, in Houk's conven
tion the other day may have been mu
sic to some ears when it should have
been note Of warning and brought {
blush Of humiliation to cheeks unused
to blushing. 1t was an open declara
tion of disgraceful attempt at an al
lance. That the alliance signed
sealed and delivered, though. it be
does not extend very far we are quite
certain. The Democratic party, can
perhaps afford to spare all who are in,
clined to sneak over into the Republi.
can camp in hopes of getting better
rations, and still have a majority in the
State. Whether this is so or not w
hope that all who have hankerine
that way will go. and be. initiated and
be branded in Hawkins mark and
made to stay there.

The mississippi River Bill.

New York Herald, April %.
The speech of Senator Hampton, Of
South Carolina, was the turning point
of the action of the Senate on the
Mississippi river bill. 1t was made
last Monday, and coming from q Sen.
ator holding such relations to the sub.
ject under discussion it appears to
have been decisive. The following
quotations show its bearing. He
said:
1T has been my fortune to have
spent large portion of my life in that
section Of Mississippi known as the
Yazoo Delta. For many years past all
my means have been invested in plant
ing operations on the Mississippi river
and | have studied its characteristics
with constant care and anxious solicit
tude. n | venture to ex-
press the hope that the amend
ments to the bill offered by my
friend from Arkansaw and by the
Senators from Louisiana may be with
drawn. / do this on the ground that
the bill as it came from the Committee
is broad in its scope, liberal in its ap-
preparation and catholic in Its spirit of
generosity. 1t gives to that great
country watered by the Mississippi
river all that was asked by the River
Commission, and it leaves to that Com
mission ample discretion to use the
funds appropriated in such manner
as will best improve the navigation
Of that river and control its angry
waters. The sum appropriated is
fully sufficient to meet the present
emergency, and it is surely enough to
be invested by the general government
in an experiment, for all plans to bring
under control the Father Of
Waters must be at best an
experiment. \ 4 As to the
best plan to be adopted there are
many different and opposing opinions
held by men whose experience, skill
and ability justly claim for them very
wise consideration at our hands"
Accordingly on Tuesday Senator
Garland. of Arkansaw, withdrew his
amendment, which was intended to
raise the amount Of the appropriation
to fifteen million dollars and to com
NIT Congress to declaration of the
constitutionality CT protecting the
bottom lands at federal expense from
the overflow of the river; and Senators
Jonas and Kellogg, of Louisiana, also
withdrew their amendments, which
were intended to press the con-
struction of levees upon the
favorable consideration of the
Commissioners. The bill was
then passed by the Senate without
a division just as it came from the
Committee. 1t appropriates FIVE mil.
lion dollars to the Mississippi river
and one million dollars to the Missouri
river, to be applied for their improve.
ment under the charge of the Com.
mission, with the following proviso:
Provided that no part of the said
sum herein appropriated shall be used
in the construction or repair of leyees
for the purpose of preventing injury ia
lands by overflow, or for any other
purpose whatever except as a means
of deepening the channel or improving
the navigation of the said rivers"
We congratulate Senator Hampton
upon this effective exhibition Of hil
| good sense.

FOREIGN AFFAIRS.

MADRID, May 2.-In the Chamber
Of Deputies to-day CASTELAR, declared
that although he would always remain
Republican, he would give friendly
support to a liberal M inistry like that
Of Sagasta. He would not embarrass
the government under its immense
difficulties.
LONDON, May 2.-The Times states
that it is to be formally decided to-
day whether the suspects be liberated.
A correspondence between Great Bri-
tain and the United States relative to
the suspects will show that there has
been no weak acknowledgement Of the
pretensions inconsistent with interna.
tional law and common sense. Great
Britain has firmly maintained the
position that an American Irishman
in Ireland must submit like other
Irishmen to the laws deemed necessa.
ry by Parliament. 1t is indifference
to the comfy Of nations and not to
any claim of right that prisoners o.
American nationality, were offered
their liberty if they would leave
the country. Ifsome of them foolishl!
and inSolently refuse to give such
pledge, they must take the chances o
remaining in Jail as long as the execu
tive deems necessary. 1t is, however
no longer doubtful that the cabinet i
considering whether the prisoners ma,
not he liberated, except those arrested
on suspicion of being personally con
cerned in outrages.
