Governor Foster on Saturday made a
proclamation that the judicial amend
ment to the constitution is now part
of the organic law of the State. 1t
seems that some wise persons claim that
Judges FOllett and Owen. lately elect
ed to the Supreme Bench, will not get
their seats until after the October cleo
tiOn of 1884. We rather think these
gentlemen will come in as all their
predecessors have.

KU-KLUX.
Eight Persons Found Guilty I'm Banks Co.,
Georgia.


ATLANTA, Ga, Oct. 29.--In the Banks
county Ku-Klux cases eight prisoners
have been found guilty on every indict-
ment, and will be sentenced Monday.
Judge Mccoy, in his charge, was very
severe in cOndemning the sO-called Ku-
Klux crimes. He said: 1T is strange
men should so forget their manhood,
and so forget their God and the laws Of
their country, as to permit themselves
to do such things on the poor, helpless
negro. 1t is a disgrace to humanity, to
society, and L say, as citizen of the
United States, and as an observer, that
nothing has tended so much to bring
the Southern country into disgrace; /;
nothing has tended so much to put the
balance of the United States against us
as this kind of outrage. They are mean !;
they are disgracefui; they are horrible; !;
they are things which the people out OF
this country can not comprehend or
understand"

4bOut Col. G.. II. GIN.

h. Q. Cruger, of the 34th Indiana, now
a resident of Waterloo, this state, writes
as follows: La your issue of Feb. 25th,
saw notice of the dangerous illness Of
Col. c. r. Gill, the perusal of which re-
calls to my mind pleasant incident of
the war, which occurred some time about
the lst of April, 1863 We were in camp
at Helena Ark, where we had been in
winter quarters. On that day our order
ly sergeant came to US and gave the or
der for Co. K. to fall in with side-arms.
Every orderly sergeant in my regiment
did the same We, (the boys) were COM
pletely mysti6ed as to what was going on.
But we were marched to the parade
ground and formed battalion, right-faced,
and then came the command, Forward,
march!' We marched down past the old
drill ground, to Fort Curtis, where was
assembled the 29th Wis infantry, and
every regiment and every brigade in our
division, pap or General McGinnis,
Generals aHovey, Prentiss and Thomas,
think. One general made speech, then
another, giving their views on putting
down the rebellion, when Col. Gill was
called upon to make a speech and it was
"Col. Gill, Col. Gill; all along the line.
He arose from his seat and commenced
by saying that he did not want to make
speech to the old soldiers, to those who
had seen one year of active service before
he enlisted. But he desired to give his
reasons for not enlisting sooner. He
said, first, to be honest, he felt little
cowardly, second, he did not like the pol
icy OF our government in carrying on the
war. He wanted to stop feeding the reb-
els with one hand while we were fighting
them with the other, and then he shouted,
"Don't let us die and rot here in Helena.
Lead us on to Vicksburg." In ten DAYS
or two weeks from that time we started
Tor Vicksburg, and can assure the read
ers of The Sunday Telegraph that in that
long and arduous campaign Col. Gill full
ly proved to the boys of the old and new
regiments comprising our brigade and
division, that he meant all he said in his
little speech. The gallant Goth covered
itself with glory under his leadership. and
good many times [ meet one or more of
those heroes, and we holda convention.

He draws his pension from the govern

We found that his reasoning faculties
were but little impaired, in fact, the

he was at least 20 years younger than
