GOING HOME TO GLORY.


KNOXVILLE, Tenn. Nov. 1O.-Samuel
Hodge and his brother, Milton Hodge,
were hanged mere to-day for the murder of
James Mcfarland at Black Oak ridge, near
this city, Oh the 9Th of September last. The
execution took place in an open field in
ravine, half mile from the court house,
in natural amphitheater. There was no
trap or scafold, simply two upright posts
placed in the ground, with cross beam,
from which ropes were suspended. A
wagon with the two prisoners drove under
the beam. At 1:30 o'clock the ropes were
adjusted and the wagon was driven away,
and the men were left dangling.
They were choked to death
in about ten minutes. Both the con-
demned chosei this method of meeting
their death. When the prisoners arrived
at the gallows they made speeches lasting
about ten minutes. saying they were pre-
pared to die and were going home to
glory. They warned others to beware of
their fate. As the black cap was pulled
over Milton Hodges face, he sang in a
strong voice, SGoing Home on De Evenin'
Train" Sam was singing Going Home
to Die no More" when ne was choked by
the rope. The day was beautiful and good
order preserved among the 5000 people
present. The crime for which the
Hodges negroes were hanged was killing
Mcfarland because he had ill-treated his
wife, their sister. They had arrested him,
tied his hands, and then Milt. shot him.

LIZ DR.. An es contests w. D. Washburn's
right to seat in the next Hoase,it is to be
expected that the Democratic majority will
decide the case upon ate merits, with judi
cial fairness, and not with that question
able accuracy which characterized the de
clsion of the Republican majority at the last
session in ousting incumbents. No matter
whether Washburn claims three or 5000
m ljority, if corruption can be shown
in giving brides, in buying up votes, or
otherwise, there is Il fair ground for con-
test, and the corrupt occupant should be
driven from his seat. At every election
Washburn has been elected by the corrupt
use of money. That he was not fairly
elected this year, contest will show, and if
SO, he will be ousted, as he
ought to be, if no treacherous
Singleton interposes, as in the case of the
Donnelly -Washburn contest, to defeat jus
tice. Washburn was proved to be guilty
of bribery then, and the same can be
proved against MIN now. It has been an
nounced that DR.. Ames will contest. If he
does, it is to be hoped he will be able to
make his proof so clear that a
well-known corruptionist will be driven
from the seat to which, in fairness,he never
had a just title. Buying seats in the
House and Senate has grown up to be
quite political commercial business under
the long existing Republican rule, and it
would be refreshing and assuring to see
these commercial commodities driven

4 S.lBBITH SLIDING SCALE.

Mr.. David Dudley Field, Of New York,
is a lawyer of rare acumen. He is the au-
thor of 1.-The Penal Code,'' under which, by
a strict construction the police recently
made q raid on CERTAIN current and active
Sunday industries in the city, and closed
them up. Whereupon Mr.. Filed jumped
promptly to their rescue, and interpreted
his own work as, rightly understood, in
extensively meaning nothing. 1t is
said an acute, ingenious lawyer can find or
make way through any law large enough
to drive a coach and four. Mr.. Field seems
to be one of that sort. He says the police
have entirely Inexperienced the mean
ing of the ''code," and their duties under
it in making their Sunday crusade against
Sabbath secularities. Mr.. Field holds that
the code was intended to prohibit only
lions of the repose and religious liberty of
the community and that it permits every
thing to be done on Sunday which can
reasonably be regarded as work of ne
cessity or charity" Among these things
he includes getting shaved, having one's
boots blacked, travelling, the publication
and sale of newspapers. telegraph business,
letting livery teams. serving ice cream and
the sale of bread, provisions,
etc. In other words, this
learned lega! interpreter decides
that the "cole' prohibiting Sunday work,
doesnot prohibit; and that go-as-you-2 please
on Sunday, as on any other day of the
week, is the real and true intent of the
scodev' And this is Mr. David Dudley
Fields idea of the sanctity of the Sabbath,
himself the son OF a stout, old Puritan
divine, the Rev. David Field, D. D., of
Stockbridge, Massachusetts, who COM
menced the sacred Sabbath obs ervance
on Saturday night, abstaining even from
warmly cooked food till the warm
supper of Sunday evening at sunset. They
