THE SLAYER OF CAREY.
Convicted and Sentenced tn Death-How
He Received the Verdict.

When counsel completed the argu-
ments in the O'Donnell case on the 1st Judge
Denman Immediately charged the jury say
| ing that the evidence was compact, the
question was simply "was the killing done
In self defence?' The jury must decide the
case regardless Of what they may have read
In the newspapers which he thought par
TALLY responsible for the shooting of Carey
on account Of their morbid and sensational
paragraphs concerning him. The judge In
reviewing the evidence said be found the
witnesses agreed with each other that up 10
the moment of the shooting, O'Donnell and
Carey seemed to be friendly. AS to O'Don-
nell's words to Mrs. Carey under the cir
cumstances the Judge thought the jury
should adopt the version most favorable to
The prisoner. 1t was plain that O'Donneli
did not say: 81 am sorry, but had to do
1t. He attacked me first.
Upon the completion Of the judges
charge the jury at Up. m. retired to DELHI
crate. at this time O'Donneli stood up In
the dock and looked about with great COM
posure.
The jury first returned to ask II man
had deadly weapon In his hand, and an
other thought he was about to use 1t against
him and shotthe former, wouldn't be man
slaughter or murder?
The Judge replied that itwould be neither.
But, no asked, when WAS the evidence of
any act done by Carey which induced
O'Donnell to think Carey meant to shoot
him?
When the jury had retired Mr.. Sullivan
expressed doubt as to whether the Judge
had not given wrong direction to the minds
Of the jury by his question.
Judge Denman asked Mr.. Sullivan IL he
could suggest where such evidence was.
When the jury returned the second time
they asked the judge the meaning of Small
ice aforethought.
The judge carefully defined the law of
murder, bearing upon that point as applied
to the present case, quoting authorities In
! support of his definition and application.
The jury again retired, AMI returned in
four minutes with a verdict Of wilful muir
der.
When Judge Denman asked O'Donnell If
he had ANYTHING to say why sentence OF
death should not be passed on him, he made
no reply. The judge then passed sentence
of death In the usual form. The prisoner
now wanted to speak but ths judge, how
ever, ordered his removal. The police
seized him, when O'Donnell held up his
right hand with fingers extended and shout
ed: "Three cheers for old Ireland!'
"Good bye, United states!'' "To hell
with the British and the British crown!'
The prisoner, shouting, cursing and Etrug-
Cling, was forcibly removed by the police,
amid the most fearful confusion and Slam
ming of doors. This action by O'Donnell
caused the greatest excitement and surprise,
as he had previously gained the sympathy Of
the audience by his good behavior.

From an English Pape.

Unquestionably there is a change in
progress in the relation of woman to So
ciety. The old-time theory by which
she was held, treated and governed as a
chattel has been practically abandoned
ia this country at least. Nevertheless
there are many relics of this theory
which are still cherished in society, aud

Assaulted with the Butt End of WI

Assaulted with the Butt End of a Whip.
Editor Morning NelrS: In your issue of
the oath inst. you have paragraph with
the above heading, stating that "a war
rant was issued yesterday afternoon for
the arrest of Walter Meyler, furniture
dealer. for assault with intent to murder
James G. West. a merchant on Bay
street."
beg leave to state that up to the pres
ent period no warrant Of any kind has
been served upon me, so that either your
assertion is incorrect or the cOnStables
are very dilatOry in their duty. There is
also an erroneous account of the occur
renee given, which is calculated TO leave
an impression unfavorable TO me, which II
is necessary to correct.
Let me give hurried version of the af-
fair. Some time since Mr.. James G. West,
the gentleman whom | cOwhided, called
at nv store ON East Broad street, and in
my absence made use of some very imper-
tinent and insulting language tony wife,
which, when / heard of it, | was
neither inclined to forget or let pass I'M
punished.
He was therefore called upon both to
retract and apologize. He agreed to do
so, with this unmanly stipulation. that
my wife should come TO his office to re-
Gtlhe II. ecOIllcU any suCu lIOpOSlllOH
and insisted that where the insult was
given there he must apologize and no
irhere else. | left him with this intima-
tion-giving him weeks for consideration
that if he did not apologize before O'Clock
p. IN. on Monday, April q, 1888, would
whip him. As l am punctual man,
called on him upon that day, and at that
hour, and gave him a sufficient cut of my
whip to constitute a whipping, and, if he
received any more he may lay the blame
upon a Mr.. Pritchard, who violently as
saulted me with a bludgeOn. If there is
anything at all resembling ''an assault
with an intent TO murder Mr.. PIitchard
is the one to be indicted.
have done nothing more than any hon.
Orable man would do when his wife is in
suited, and if Mr.. West imagines that he
can insult woman with impunity be-
cause he is a merchant and she is store
keeper, he and people of his kidney will
soon find that there are in Savannah more
than one WALTER MEYLER.
The statement that warrant had been
issued was made on the authority of the
Magistrate who issued the document, and
by reference to the Superior Court calen-
dar in another column of the NEWS, it
will be seen that the above party has been
indicted by the grand jury for assault
with intent to murder, and the case as
SipDpd for trial
