WORD FOR HIM.
HIGGISSNIIIE. Mo- March .

EDITOR INTELLIGENCER:-As the life of
Jeff. Wilson is so near to Il close, permit me
to say a few words in his behalf that lie may
not leave the world followed by hatred and
revenge unbecoming Christian Intelligence.
jeff. when s months old, was brought with his
mother from Barnwell District, South Caro-
lima, and purchased by myself in 1870. Jeff.'s
mother was honorable, Industrious, clearly
and high minded, and so was jeff, kind
hearted, truthful, reliable. polite and no mean
traits about him.. Poor jeff, he is unfortu-
nate the weakness of his nature has brought
him to u premature and degraded death. but
he has the sympathy of the family that raised
him. | have not called to see jeff. since be
has been in prison; l did not want to see him
in Il condition that | could not help him. So
goodbye Jeff We are all truly sorry on
your account. Your remorse and sorrow will
end with your life. No odds what some may
say of you; you were once a cheerful, Lively
and good boy. Again, jeff. farewell!

gard for the public welfare than did Judge

ton.

COUNTY JUDGESHIP-WESTERN DIS
TRICT.

EDITOR INTELLIGENCER:-Several good
names have been mentioned in connection
with the county judgeship from our district
(western) but 1 think there is a more general
desire for our former Judge, Hon. John A.
Prather, than for any other person. Judge
Prather is a man in the prime of life, with a
strong, active and vigorous mind, a clear
perception, and of that peculiarly well bal
anced nature so necessary in those holding
public offices. especially judicial ones. The
Judges long experience on the county bench,
his perfect familiarity with the road laws, the
questions and the management of our county
finances, render him especially fitted for the
position. Bnt it is needless to multiply
recommendations, the Judges record when
formerly in this place having never been sur.
passed, is sufficient to recommend him TO
every democrat of the district. Let us by all
means have Judge Prather bac,: IN the county
court. A DEMOCRAT.

JEFF'S SECOND TRIAL.

After the first conviction, as narrated
elsewhere, jeff. Wilson's attorneys,
Messrs. Young, Hall and Hicklin, APP.
pealed to the supreme court for a new
trial, which was granted on the ground
that the court below having in its in
structions to the jury stated that in
certain events it might find a verdict of
murder in the second degree failed to
define that crime.
A second trial was had, beginning Oh
Wednesday, October 81. The follow
ing jury was selected from the panel
of 100 men: Samuel w. Roberts,
Charles c. Brooks, George A. Chamb-
lin, Joseph H. Anderson, Benjamin E..
Green, James W. Corbin. John w.
Lewis, Samuel B. Burton, Benz. Stark,
John A. Thompson, Princy W. Thomp-
son and Henry Larkin. The witnesses
were called and sworn, and evidence
taken. The first witness, Matte Jones,
told a straight story, but was somewhat
confused on the crOss-examination.
Rosa johnson gave her evidence in a
straightforward manner, but on the
cross-examinatiOn became confused,
cried, and forgot many points. Irene
Santford's evidence was straight, and
she stood a good cross-examination,b but
was somewhat confused toward the
last. Dudley Smith was cool, and gave
a straight story, and stuck to it. Geo.
Billiard, a new witness, said he was
boarding at the Laclede hotel at the
time of the killing. A night or two
before the killing Jeff. told him that
Jennie had gone back on him. Jeff.
said he had $3.50, and he would leave
the country, now that she had gone
back Oh him, but if she did not behave
