Delay in Reminding.

DeiaF III 1teIuEulnS
Capt. H. r. Garden, Of New York. ex-
plains the reason of the delay in the re-
funding ofthe Stare bonds:
'The cause of the delay in complet-
ing the exchap re OF the old Virginia OBJ
legations for the new securities grows
out OF the suit instituted by Mr.. VIII
liam l.. Royal against the corporation
OF foreign bondholders (London). They
were bis former clients in litigation
against the State. He has levied an
attachment ON all the old securities
now in the capitol at Richmond. but
not yet formally delivered 10 the State,
on the plea that the corporation OF for
eign bondholders have an interest III
each one Of these old securities. This
interest he attaches under the conten-
ton that the corporation is in his debt
for legal services. The bondholders'
committee were compelled to commu-
nicate, which they did at once. with the
corporation Of foreign bondholdcrs in
London, the party defendant. whose
duty it was to place the committee in
4 position to Immediately complete the
exchange Questions extremely dill
cult of adjustment had to be consider
ed and discussed by letter and by cable
between London and New York.
Scarcely a day has passed since the in
stitution of the Royal suit on which the
committe e, or some member of it, has
not given his entire attention to the
task of removing this last obstacle to
the exchange. The committee is hope
full that in a very few day a conclusion
will be reached, and that the Old
Dominion will be able.to rejoice in Il III
nancal as we'll as Il political millen-
mum.
The old bonds paroled with the Oh
colt committee, amounting to $24, Co.,
600, are in safe in the treasurer's of
flee in Richmond, ready to be delivered
to the Commonwealth in exchange for
the manuscript bonds. The delay
caused by the ltigations of Mr.. Royal
and other attorneys, growing out OF
claims against the London committee
for fees rs counsel, will not. it is be-
lievcd, be of much longer duration.
The Commonwealth has been ready ut
any time to carry out the contract ana
has no responsibility for the delay that
has occurred Second Auditor RylanL
is now in New York, where he has gone
to have conference with the members
of the Olcott committee. 1t is believed
that arrangements will be speedily
made to give an indemnifying bond for
the amount of Mr.. Royals claim This,
though, the State has nothing to do
with, but as soon rs ii is effected, it is
said by the State officials at the capitol,
arrangements will be made for issuing
the new manuscript bonds. When this
is done the transaction will have been
consummated. The printed bonds can
be made out and issued at any time in
such denominations rs required by the
parties interested.

An Atroclous Crime.

MORRISON, ILL, Nov. ia. NJ.
Swarthout, prominent and wealthy
farmer, of Linden, drove to this city
Thursday afternoon, and after attend
ing to some business started for home,
arriving about six o'clock. His two
sons, John and Ernest, were engaged at
work around the barn when their
father returned, but no words were
exchanged between them. After Mr..
Swarthout had embarrassed the horse
some one stepped up behind him and
shot him through the head. His body
was then placed in cart and wheeled
about 100 rods to straw stack, carried
to the top and then the straw was set
on fire. Clues subsequently found have
led to the arrest of the sons John and
Ernest, but they deny all knowledge of
the affair.

His Struggle With Opium.

One day realized, writes former
victim of the opium habit, that my word
was no longer symbol of truth, and
the moral nature had not quite drown
ed leaped up in the dark and called me
liar TO my face. Then | awoke, and
for the first time for many Il day |
prayed. Then also came the resolve,
the determined resolve, come what may,
to be done with this damnable tyranny.
At O'Clock that evening | took a
hearty meal of meat principally and a
little very little red wine. 1t was
June 10. 1865. I had determined to
walk into the summer night, walk till |
died if necessary. but walk till | won
my battle, if | lived through the ordeal.
| left my watch at home that | might
not pawn it for opium; | took no money
with me; even rs ! left home and
struck across the downs felt the crav-
ing coming on (the hour for my penulti-
mate day dose was at hand, and /
knew my temptation was with me and
realized how long and bitter the strug-
gle was to be. The craving seemed to
me a palpable shape that walked beside
me, presence that outran me and lost
me, and came back to me like faith
full dog that would not lose or leave me,
that could not leave or lose Some
times l sang. sometimes | raved and
swore, sometimes | prayed and wept,
but never once, thank God, did my res
olution falter.
Much of that night cannot remem-

times, such as a fall had once, hurting
my knee. l think l frightened some
one who asked me some question. and
[ believe I can recollect that | myself
grew at one time full of fear-fear of
hurting myself, not others and then |
suffered thirst-such thirst, such awful
thirst-but | must have slaked it some

and necktie were all wet, and so was
my hair. At Z in the morning of the
next day I found myself leaning on
gate and looking out on the landscape
before me with sort of curious Won
der as to how / came there my head
dropped on my hands. ! slept for q
think only few minutes, and awoke
quite well. Since that day | have new
er touched it. Of course, am well
aware that the doses to which | had
become accustomed were not very
large. but am also sure that they
were OH the increase, and having told
my experience lately to a distinguished
English physician, he begged me, for
the sake of others. to put on record
these plain and simple facts. This |
now do. and if do so anonymously, it
is only because believe that no further
good could follow the knowledge of my
identity or name.

execution of NeilI, the Murderer.

LONDON, Nov. l5.-Thomas NELL,
otherwise Cream, the murderer of Ma
tilda Clover and several other girls, paid
the penalty ofhis crimes ut O'Clock THIS
morning. At three minutes to nine,
Ellington, the hangman, accompanied
by an assistant, entered the cell of the
condemned man and without o mo-
lnent's delay rapidly pinioned him.
Nejll did not utter word during the
process. The procession to the gallows
was then formed. Neill, guarded on
both sides by warders, walked firmly,
A deadly pallor overspread his features,
but his face showed no other trace OF
emotion. As the procession passed to-
wards the scafIold the tolling of the
bell of St. Sepulchre's, which has mark
ell the last moments ofso many crlm-
mails, resounded through the prison.
On arriving at the scaffold the white
cap, which had been previously placed
upon the head of the condemned man,
was pulled down over his eyes. His
legs were pinioned and the moose was
then dropped over his head and adjust
ed around his neck. In another second
the executioner stepped pace to the
rear, pressed lever, and the trap fell
Ncills body dropped 5 feet into pit
Death was instantaneous. There were
convulsive twitchings of the muscles OF
the back and limbs, which lasted few
seconds, and then the body hung mo-
tionless. Probably no criminal was
ever executed in London who had a
less plying mob awaiting his extlnc'
ton. Neill died amid general execra-
tions. The body was then placed in
perforated coffin, into which sack OF
quick lime was poured. The features
showed no trace OF The mans violent
end. The body was buried under the
flagstones in the corridor of Newgate
which is, perhaps, the most CHASTITY
spot in the world. Under the tagging
of this corridor have been buried the
bodies of long succession of nota-
bic and obscure criminals.

twenty-four senator's and the republi-

si1ty-three members of the Honse,
barely majority, the democrats two,
