GONE TO THE JURY.
The Tally Sheet Case at Last Submitted
The Charge.

CoIuMBUs, March 20.-The day was for
the most part consumed in the tally sheet
trial by L. l.. Mills in closing for the State.
He finished his argument at 3.25 in the af-
ternoon, and Judge Pugh commended his
charge to the jury. His was very long and
occupied two hours in its delivering. The
defense took exception to only one part of
the charge, that was to where the
court held that the jury should form its
verdict upon all the circumstances shown by
the prosecution. If they found one or more
of circumstances sought to be established
not 10 have existed, that need not in their
minds shake the side of the State. The
jury was taken TO the Irving House for sup
per and after that were again locked up.

his first question built up an impossible
barrier between us. He asked how we
could be so wicked as to come down there
and fight against the south and try TO
overturn their government We had been
trying TO repent of our sins, but had not
got SO far as that particular one yet, and
answered little tartly by asking how he
and his friends could be so wicked as To
rebel against a good government. He
answered by reference to the north try
ing to overthrow slavery, and / asked
him If it was possible that he, minister,
was an apologist for slavery! 1t hap
pened that he was jealous defender of
the institution and very sensitive on this
point; and so much noise was soon made
In the discussion that the guard removed
him. He did not come again.
But our interview and subsequent ac-
quaintance with Rev. Mr.. MacDonell was
of a very different character, though it
also opened unpromisingly. In his first
prayer he petitioned very earnestly that
our lives might be spared If consistent
with the good of the Confederacy! This
offended some of us, but the better opinion
was that IL sincere in his loyalty to the
rebel authority, he could hardly have
prayed differently. So kind was he to us
afterward that some thought he might
possibly be a Union man in real senti-
ments: but he has since assured me that he
was not in the slightest degree, and that
all he did for us was at the dictates of hui
mainly and religion. We had very pleas
ant interview. He gave us valuable coun-
sci, and Lfelt it a great privilege to talk
over religious questions with one so intel
ligent and sympathetic. When he left he
promised to send us some books, and did
not forget to promptly forward them.
These we took good care of, read thor
oughly to all in the room and then re.
turned, asking for more. These he gener.
ally gave, and we thus continued till We
had read nearly his whole library. Those
only who know what dreadful weari-
ness it Is to pass days without any def
mite employment can realize the great
boon these good books bestowed ON us. 1t
made the prison room a veritable school;
and in view of our religious efforts the
character Of the books was just what we
would most have desired. did not care,
as in Knoxville, for law books, but the
fact that many, though not all, Of the
minister's books were of q theological and
religious cast only made them the more
welcome This Atlanta jail was my
theological seminary!

nothing else, to open all the doors above.
There were three, and the fitting of keys
from the bunch under such excitement
was likely to make this take some time.
l think no one Of us felt that Buffum had
q desirable Office. But It was desirable to
10 have all the prisoners released IL only
to distract the pursuit. All the others
were arranged into two bands with lead
ers, to slip down the stairway Mt the pro-
per time and break out on the guards at
the front and rear doors simultaneously.
Then quickness, courage and desperation
were TO be pitted against loaded muskets
and bayonets, and the issue left to the
God of battles.
We had also chosen our comrades and
routes. We were TO travel In pairs and
in every direction. Capt. Fry was to be
my partner, and all the rest considered
that was fortunate, for he would be at
home in the Cumberland mountains, to-
ward which we were to journey. The
intended course was marked out for each
couple and everything done to forward
the movement on which we believed de-
pended our last chance Of escaping the
gallows. We did not forget to make most
earnest supplications in prayer, and to
vow, in the old time manner, that we
would render faithful service to the Lord
of Hosts if he would aid US in this great
emergency.
1t was afternoon when we received the
intelligence which determined our action
and we could not very we'll be ready to
start that day. So the work was set for
the following afternoon. We patched our
shoes as well as we could, and made cloth
moccasins to protect our feet, for many
shoes were worn out. We gave messages
to each other beginning with the form,
eff you get out and do not''-for we
could not tell who would be the fortunate
ones In the effort, or how many might
fail. We had a strong conviction of sue
cess, but whether seven guards would
allow their muskets to be taken without
using bullet or bayonet against some Of
their assailants with fatal effect, seemed

Sowing Wild Oats.

| Editor Mirror:
The above expression is an exceedingly
common one, but few persons who use it
have any idea as to it's full significance They
see young man taking his fling of the
pleasures of the world, the flesh, and the
devil and they remark, He's all right; he
is only sowing his wild oats"
This introduction leads up to the query
This sowing of wild oats-what does it
mean?" The meaning is too plain. A free
spirited, undetermined youth. fascinated by
the 1attery of fast friends. yields to the evil
temptation, TRY the worlds pleasure for
once, and see how pleasant It's" In doing
this he casts aside all the good seed sown
at his mothers knee. fostered by his moth
er'S prayers, watered by his mothers tears;
casts aside all the good, kind influences OF
home, sisterhood, brotherhood, of pity and
christian faith and in their place plants
one crop of ''Wild Oats" He consoles him
self with the idea that it is necessary to
know little wrong in the world, but re-
solves. when he comes to mature years, he
will plant the seeds of goodness, greatness,
purity and all other virtues.
| Now, reader, if such be your idea of the
| plan of life. dismiss it at once. Never was
such mad illusion raised as this. Those
wild oats have terrible roots sinking down
into your soul, choking and killing with re-
morseless zeal. all good and enrolling at.

this vile seed, and noted the extent of the
harvest. Have you never seen the bleared
| face and blOOd-ShOt eyes of the drunkard
the stiff, unnatural gait of debauchee-
the wasted form, sunken cheek, hectic flush
of lost manhood? These, and many other
like cases. are the harvest of wild oats sown
in youth.
| Many of us here are reaping a harvest in
| our prison life which sprang from the same
rank seed sOwn in our previous existence
Now, dear reader. let me ask. on leaving
this place will you, in face of the facts
brought before you, drown all there is of
manliness OF purity left in your character.
and become poor and an Outcast for all the
frail pleasures of this world? Will you
spend worthless life and shorten your
days upon the earth? If so, sow wild oats.
''He that sOweth of the flesh shall of the
| flesh reap cOrruptiOn.'
| Or will you enter on a new life and en-
deavOr by Gods grace to be man, pure
in Thought, word and deed?" Choose the
latter while you have the opportunity.
Here is your reward. [ finish the quotation
from Holy Writ: but he that sOweth to
the Spirit, shall of the Spirit reap life ever

Until we tread the halls of Paradise.
