unique confession yesterday: "Here in
prison. awaiting execution and know.
ing that in q few days I am to meet my
God, I desire to make some statements
to the world regarding my case. I feel
that I have no murder on my soul to
answer for. When 1 struck Mr.. Par.
sons I had no real animus against him,
and I had no wish to kill him. !
thought he had treated me wrongly in
keeping back a part of my pay, and
wanted to punish him, but I had no
murder in my heart. That is why / am
confident that the good Lord, who will
soon take me into his kingdom, does
not hold me guilty of murder. 1 be-
lieye that if Dick Mosby, the colored
mar who testified against me, had told
the truth, 1 would never have
been convicted of murder. Mosby
said that I met him that day by
the reservoir and told him that
I was going to fix Mr.. Parsons. ]
want to say that I did not see Mosby
on that day at all. Although his testi-
mony has robbed me of my life, 1 free
ly forgive Dick Mosby, and hope that
he will repent. BECOME a good christ
ian and meet me in heaven. have no
luminosity against anybody in this wide
world. If l had been on the jury and
heard the evidence of Mosby and
others, I would have acted just as the
Jurors did in my case. With good will
to all who have ever done me any in

GOVERNOR O'FERRALL's recent mix
ed luncheon will be the cause of no
little trouble even in far off Massachu-
sets, as one of his negro guests at that
luncheon has already introduced a bill
in the Legislature of that State prohibit
ing, by fine and Imprisonment, every and
all sorts of discrimination on account OF
race or color. As most of the Northern
States have attempted to prohibit such
discrimination in the South, not only
Massachusetts, but all the others should,
for simple consistency's sake, prohibit
it within their borders, and do so by
themost stringent coercive measures.
1t is hardly necessary, however, to say
that they will not.

ACCORDING to the newspapers, the
President has been opposed to the in
come tax, but that day before yester-
day he said, "but now I believe it to be
q just and wise measure of taxation"
There is no doubt of the fact that it is.
But if the newspapers be correct, the
President has for some time been re.
ceiving credit for what didn't belong
to him, for until now, almost every
body has supposed that he was q
staunch supporter of the tax referred
to, from the first.

Court of Appeals Yesterday.

There we're few opinions of general
interest handed down in the Court OF
Appeals yesterday.
In the case of Benton vs.. Common
wealth, from the Circuit Court of Eau
quier, Judge Reilly read the opinion Of
the court. Benton was first tried in
the County Court of Loudoun under an
indictment charging him with house
breaking with intent to commit lar
ceny. The jury returned a verdict of
guilty of grand larceny. He then got a
new trial and next time the verdict was
equity as charged in the Indictment"
The case was then appealed to the Cir
cult Court of Fauquier. The interest
ing feature of the case is this: Counsel
c~ontended that the prisoner having
been convicted in the first instance of
grand larceny only and the verdict be-
ing silent as to house-breaking with in
tent to commit larceny, he was acquit-
ted of the charge of house-breaking,
etc., and that in the second trial the
verdict being general and silent as to
the larceny charged, it was q verdict
of house-breaking with intent to COM
NIT larceny only, and in effect an ac-
quittal of the charge of larceny; conse-
quently he had been acquitted of both
charges. The court below is affirmed.
Shepherd VS.. Chapman, from the Cir
cult Court of Orange. Affirmed, Judge
Keith delivering opinion.
Hoover VS.. Buck, from the Circuit
Court of Rockingham. Affirmed, Judge

THE MUGwUMPs, anti-snappers, GOO
COOS and loo loos Of New York op-
pose q bill introduced in the legislature
of that State by q man elected by their
votes, providing for the election OF
police commissioners by the direct vote
of the people, for the assigned reason
that it would make the whole police
force q corrupt and corrupting agency
of fraud at both primaries and elections.
But they scout the idea of restricting
the privilege of suffrage. If the election
of police commissioners would be cor
rupt and fraudulent, as it doubtless
would be, why shouldn't the election
of higher officers, Mayor, Governor and
President, by the people, be equally so?
and echo answers why?
