The execution still maintains Its place az
the best drawing show in the South, and as
long as the authorities continue to spare no
pains to avail themselves of all the new at
fractions which the ingenuity Of the victim,
who as rule seems bent upon making his
"working OFF, as sensational as possible, can
devise, 1t bids fair to remain without rival.
In some respects the latest exhibition of
this kind exceeded in promise all former
efforts of the kind, though it somewhat
failed in performance The victim, or per-
haps better the heroine, was colored wom-
an, who had been found guilty of instigat-
ing a colored man to commit murder After
her paramour had expiated his crime on the
gallows, all desire for life fed from her, and
the remainder of her time was devoted to
'making up' powerful interest in
its end. The authorities seem to
have cordially entered into her plans,
for on the day preceding the ex-
ecution it was given out that something
unusual might be expected to transpire up
Oh the gallows. 1t was asserted that the
woman had dreamed dream the night be-
fore, in which she had seen herself caught
up from the scaffold before the drop fell by
three angels, and her slippers removed from
her feet and golden ones substituted. OF
course this announcement proved draw
ing card, and negroes for miles around gath
cred on the morning of the execution in the
vicinity of the JAIL At the appointed hour
the procession, in which were four colored
ministers singing hymns, moved out of the
Jail, escorting the victim, who mounted the
scaffold with firm step and delivered
brief speech. Owing, however, to circum-
stances over which the management had no
control, the angels and the golden slippers
did not appear, and great disappointment
and disgust we're shown by the negroes
who had climbed upon neighboring fences
and sheds to get a good view Of the scene.
1t will be interesting to see what means will
be adopted in the future to revive the inter
est which it is natural to suppose has been
somewhat weakened by this failure to carry
out portion of the published programme.

Not a Steal.

Some people are evidently so blind in
their conceit that they cannot use common
sense in speaking of any measure when
the right in the case is clear as the noon
day sun. Here is an instance in point. In
speaking of the fact that the city council
fixed the salary of the aldermen at $500 at
its Wednesday night meeting, the Journal
says:
enjoin the payment of Prof. Tousley's
salary, and thus choke off 'steal," should
hasten to choke off this attempted 'steal'
of TIE aldermen. Go in Doc, and distin-
quish yourself"
In the case of Prof. Tousley's salary
seal there was absolutely no return made
TO the city. Tousley was absent from the
city, and the city was paying Prof. Moore
to do the work, whereas in the case of the
city council the salary for the year had
not been fixed until last Wednesday even
ing and this for the sole and publicly IN
dSrstood reason of the expected change in
the city charter allowing increased pay.
The old law fixed the limit at the insig-
nifcant sum of 500 and the new law
raises it to the still insufficient sum of
$500. The law is not retroactive and
hence, as the law knows no part of year
in such matters, the salary of an alderman
cannot now be fixed under an old law
which is effectually wiped out by a new
law. This paper which publishes the in
consistent paragraph above, was Tousley
salary steal advocate, but is so narrowly
partisan that when the well earned money
goes to Democratic mayor and Demo
cratic ALDERMAN, it cries out ga steal!''

Arthur Enthusiastically q Candidate.

/. Washington, Nov. l0.-A member oil
the administration said to-day:
Chester A. Arthur is a candidate for
presidential nomination. / know it,
and / do not know that there is any
necessity for keeping quiet about it any
longer, and / think that before long the
party will have no doubt that he is a
candidate. The result Of the election i'm
New York has, perhaps, made it proper
that the candidacy should be avowed.
think Gen. Arthur is the man to carry
New York, and that. from present ap
~pearances, he will convince the party
leaders that he is the man.
This statement, coming from a person
as to whose knowledge upon the subject
there can be scarce a doubt, is, perhaps,
the first positive declaration by any one
near the president that Gen. Arthur is a
presidential candidate. 1t is very posi-.
BILE that in within a few weeks events
will happen that vii. make it appear
that Gen. Arthur is TO become what the
politicians perhaps would call an ag-
gressive candidate. The New York
election has removed tho necessity for
silence some of the presidents most in
innate friends, and they now say, with
ont reserve, that Gen. Arthur viii! be a
candidate before the presidential nomi-
nation convention, and they add, con-
silently, that he will r.seiye she nomi.
