convicted of the heinOus crime of outraging
n respectable white young Lady i'll Lexington
County, and sentenced by Judge Wallace to
be hung last Friday, but who was rcspitcd
by the Governor until tho 1th. of May, and
removed to Richland County Jail, upon the

quence of an affidavit presented to him by
Lcapharts attorney, was taken back to Lex
ington Jail last Saturday. a committee OF
Lexington citizens appointed ut the meet
ing yesterday, visited the Governor to-day.
. They stated that they could not understand
his action in secretly ordering Leaphart' S
reprieve and removal to Columbia after he
had publicly declined to pardon him: The
Governor j nffessed tsspSh them he had nc
alternative but to suspend sentence, when
Judge Wallace recommended it for the pur-
pose of allowing motion for new trial by
reason of an affidavit which contained mate
rial evidence. lie said he had already re-
fused finally to interfere with the sentence
of the court, but his granting of the judge 5
Recommendation for rcprieyc was obliga-

The committee then had an interview with
the judge and informed him that they desir-
cd the return of the prisoner to Lexington,
and that they stood ready pledged to his per-
sonal safety. The Judge then commended
them for their sentiments and gave them n
recommendation to the Governor for the re.
= turn Of Leaphart, in which the Governor
acquiesced.
The committee pledged their honor as
gentlemen for the personal safety Of Leap

signed by the Judge he was taken to LcXing-

New YoRk, May If one were asked to

here of the bondage and inferior advant-
ages of women as compared with the glori-
GUS liberty enjoyed by the men of America.
chiefly because, forsooth, the former hap
pen not to enjoy the questionable duty Of
the ballot, that we are sometimes liable to
forget that it is only in the United States
aud to lesser degree Great Britain that
practical equality of liberty, rights and
privileges exist between the sexes. AS we
pass through Europe eastward we find this
equality decreasing, until We reach state
of society where woman undoubtedly oc-
cupies position far inferior to that of
man.
It is in marriage that We see their rela.
tive position most distinctly demonstrated
in these two widely separated regions. Here
woman has the sole election in her own
hands. She marries from choice the one
she prefers, and love is the moving cause.
IDENTIFY stated that love is the last thing con-
sidered by those who propose to marry.
Unquestionably such marriages of love DO
occur among the Christian Greeks and
Armenians, but they are rare. Love may
follow marriage, but money, position and
the like are as rule and custom the
moving causes. The woman has little
