This paper does not cry for the blood
OF any person, be he white or black, of
high or low degree. but when any man
no matter what his color or condition,
takes the law and his life IN his own
hands he should take the consequences
Of that law he wilfully violates and pay
the penalty with his life if necessary.
And so long as crimes of this kind are
not punished more severely neither the
humblest home OF the black man nor
the isolated one of the white is free
from the despoiling and murderous
hand Of either race as the law is sup
posed to make them.
We did not hear the argument of
counsel on either side, but the speeches
all have heen highly complimented.
The State was represented by Solicitor
BERNARD, Julian E. Ingle and Capt. W.
B. Shaw; the defence by 4. 7. Hicks
and j. Y. Eaton. Judge Graham's
charge was fair and impartial. Weare
told that in passing sentence on Foster
he said that if any man ever deserved
to be hung he did, and in giving him
the full penalty of the law in his case
so years at hard labor in the peri
itentiary-intimated that it was to be
regretted that he should get off so
lightly.
BAPTIST ACQUITTED.
Tony Baptist, the alleged accomplice
of Foster, was acquitted. The strong
est evidence against him it seems was
the, question asked by Foster of his
brother-in-law in the presence Of a
witness who testified against him, if
they had Tony Baptist, just before his
own arrest. And when told that they
did have him the next question was
what he himself should do. This after
he had confessed his guilt to his broth
er-in-law, having previously made a
confession TO witness June Aston,
coiored.) who was taking him to see
his klnsman. Foster did not testify in
his own behalf nor did he introduce any
witnesses whatever. J. II. Bridyers
and T. NJ. Pittman were Baptist's
counsel.

Death of Mrs. J. n. Goodrich

Mrs. Sallie Elizabeth Goodrich wife
OF DIR. ). Hiram Goodrich, died at her
nome IN this place at quarter to 4
O'CLOCK Wednesday afternoon of last
week. She had been an invalid for
TWO and a half years and her death was
not unexpected to her friends. A vic
Tim OF consumption she had been a
great sufferer; yet she bore her affection
uncomplainingly aud withal was bright
and cheerful throughout the mouths of
weary aud wasting suffering which she
endured. Indeed, her example was
rebuke to many of US who are blessed
with the gift of physical health aud
strength, AS her life was a constant ben
edlctlon to those about her.
Mrs. Goodrich was the daughter of
the late William A. Cheatham. and
was % years of age. She was an ardent
Christian and an earnest worker in the
church, always Jealous in the cause of
her Master whom she delighted to
serve with all her heart and soul and
strength. AS neighbor she was kind
and obliglng, as member of society
conslderate and charitable, as a friend
sympathetic and true, and as a wife
and mother gentle and affectiouate.
Her life was that of a truly good and
plous woman, who in the few brief
years allotted filled her place in every
station and requirement as it is given
but few mortals to do, and in such
manner as to merit tie plaudit of
swell done, good and faithful servant"
She is survived by a husband and
two children, beside two brothers and
large family connection, while her.
death is mourned by all who knew her.
The funeral was held from the Metho-
dist Episcopal church, Of which de-
ceased was a member, at o'clock
Thursday afternoon, Rev. NJ. D. Hix,
the pastor, conducting the exercises. He
was assisted by Rev. T. NJ. johnson,
Of the Methodist Protestant church, it
being Mrs. Goodrich's request that he
should do So The body was laid to
rest in Elmwood cemetery in the pres
ence ola large concourse of sorrowing
friends.

The Cause of FeverS.

Few people fully appreciate the effects
of malaria on the human system. Resi-
dents of lOw-lying di stricts are daily stor-
ing away in their bodies the inhaled germ
OF disease which permeates the air. and
often sanitation is imperfect and emana-
tons from decaying vege table matter rem
der the air poisonous. The result is train
of bilious disorders. agues, intermittent
fevers. A good plan to take a few doses
of mild but thorough and searching Ca
thartic whenever an attack is threatened
For this purpose Dr. Pierce's Pleasant
Pellets are unequalled. They depurate
the liver, cure constipation. improve d.
gestion and often ward off dangerous fe-
vers Once used they are always in favor.
