A HORRIBLE HANGING.

A dispatch from Baton Rouge, La, says ::
edward Rector, alias Valmar Rector, col
ored, was hanged in the Jail yard here yes
terday for The murder of Duncan Williams,
in this city, in December, 1882, by staobing
him in the back. The murder was cold
blooded and cowardy. Rector also MUIR
dered his stepfather without provocation,
but escaped punishment BY laxity IN the
courts. On Tuesday lie was baptized by
immersion by Baptist minister He ex-
pressed himself as ready to die. On the gall
lows Rector exhibited much GOODNESS. After
religious exercises be addressed the people
in a loud, clear voice. His child was pre-
sent, weeping bitterly. The sheriff drew
down the black cap, affixed the rope and
stepped off the scatlold, closely followed by
Rector. The culprit was then taken back
to The drop, but refused foreman, following;
The deputies when they left. He was forced
back time and again, but finally SO great
were his efforts that the united strength OF
three men was necessary to keep him en- the
trap. He grasped the rope about his neck,
aud his hold could not be released by the
officers. So prolonged was the struggle and
so great the display of strength by Rector
that the sheriff was compelled to call upon
the bysauders for assistance. All this time
Rector was ultering the most terrifying
screams. The officers then attempted TO
force bin upon his knees, when another
struggle commenced, and it took several
men TO throw him down on the trap. He
fought hard and begged most piteousy TO
lie spared. The struggle for life continued
some time Finally. at POP, the doomed
man, bound in cords, was thrown eastward
from the trap, falling six feet. Life was not
extinct until the expiration o: eighteen
minutes after the drop fell. rs shown by the
pulsations. The body was cut down at 2:22
o'clock. and turned over to bis brother. Two
hundred spectators witnessed the execution.
The scene was most horrible, and caused
many 10 shudder and turn away, but the
Justice Of the sentence was acknowledged
by all.

Persons here who have long known Mr.
Willard, the now bankrupt ex-president of
the Northern Pacific Railroad, say that his
name in Germany, from which country he
emigrated, was HiIgard. Many people say
that though he has surrendered much Of
his property, he has saved enough to keep
him from want.

hunting near Colvin's Tavern, 3 or miles
south oftowE, when by some means hisgun
went of inopportnnely aud discharged its
contents in tie side Of Clark's head. Owing
to the stupor in which Clark has lain ever
snce the accident, il has been impossible TO
learn from him the particulars of his misfor-
tune. llc was found in marsh in an ub-
conscious condition, and he had evidently
been lying there in the rain for an hour or
two.
On the same Cay Mr.. J. E. Brown, pro-
prietor Of the Virginia Hotel bar and billiard
room, received severe gun-shot wound at
Orange c. H., where he was on visit at
the time. It appears that some men at
Orange C. II. were preparing for hunt and
being under the influence of liquor one Of
them handled his weapon so carelessly that
it went OIL uuawarcs. Mr. Brown happened
to be standing near and received the charge
in his face and shoulder. Many shot pene-

Az ExPLANA1IoS-In the House of Delegates
yesterday Mr.. Molett said that when he voted
against dismissing the Commissioners Sale bill,
introduced by Mr. Green, of Stafford, he did not
intend thereby to endorse any Of the provisions
Of the bill, which bad not been printed or read in
the House. Had he known this bill was dupli-
cate of the one offered at the last session by tho
coalisioni,ts and that other legislation would be
introduced to cure what he believed to be defect
in the law as at present administered, he would
not by his vote even ask the indulgence OF the
House to investigate the bill. He was as much
opposed to the bill as any member on the floor
aud would not vote for it under any circum-
stances introduced
