cial from Camden says:
Tom Watson, who, with his WIFI,
swore that the negro, viii Busscy,
had committed an assault on Mrs.
Watson, was taken out by a commit
tee of citizens Monday night, AMI
given 500 lashes. The affidavit of
Watson and his wife was the means
of Bussey being sentenced to hang
the latter part of this month, but
about three weeks ago, Mrs. Watson
made written statement confessing
that She had sworn falsely against
Bussey. and on learning this Gov.
Davis suspended the negro's sentence.

zens that they decided to punish Wat

the negro. At the conclusion of the
lashing Watson was placed on a train
going south and given instructions

wife in England, the London corre-
spondent Of the Tribune says:
But the most interesting element =

the grand jury indicts Earl Russell
for bigamy he will not be tried by an
ordinary criminal court, but by the
house of lords, since that is his priv.
ilege. The last time this was done
was the trial of a peer on a criminal
charge 40 years ago. when Lord Car
digan was charged with duelline
This was a criminal offense, and ne
was tried by the house of lords. The
procedure is so unusual that veteran
British lawyers forecast that it viii
be the last instance of the kind. II
the case actually reaches the upper
house, on the question of privilege

OUT OF IMMEDIATE DANGER.
Mrs. Mckinley COnvalescing, and
For the Present the Danger
Line is Left Behind.

Washington. June 19.-Doctors
Johnston and Rixey held "A consulta-
ton at the White House, at the con
clusion of which DR.. Johnston pro-
nounced Mrs. Mckinley out of danger
and convalescing. He said there mty,
Of course, be a recurrence of her trou-
bic, but for the present the danger
is past.
DR.. Johnston said that the blood in
lection had disappeared entirely.
DR.. Rixey, although evidently en-
couraged by the improvement in Mrs.
McKinleys condition, was somewhat
mere conservative in his statement
than DIR. Johnston. He thought ii
scarcely safe to say that she was en-
tirely out of danger, as her extreme
weakness might precipitate a relapse

AGAINST RUSSELL SAGE.
Suit to Determine a Traders Right
in "Put" Transaction
Begun.
PLAINTIFF AND DEFENDANTS STORIES.
The Ground of Action Is Located In
the Recent Boom and Subsequent
Collapse in Certain stocks in Wall
street-Mr. snge Obtains an Ex-
tension.

New York, June 19.-In the su.
preme court of this state a suit fol-
$500 has just been brought against
Russell Sage, who introduced the
business of trading in puts" and
calls" by Robert d. Nroom, who,
for years, has been accustomed to buy
these privileges from him. The ac.
tion is an outgrowth of difficulty
which occurred on May 9, the day Of
the panic.
Mr.. Vroom came into Mr.. Sage's Of
flee on the morning of that day
holding, among others, puts" sold
by the latter on 500 shares of Chicago
Rock Island & Pacific.
The stocks in which Mr.. Vroom had
the privileges were then selling sc
low, according to the tape, that if he
could buy them about those figures he
could deliver them to Mr.. Gage at the
figures named IN his puts" and make
net profit of many thousands. He
handed his privileges over to Mr.. Sage
who has them yet-and asked the
financier TO buy in the stocks for Inn
as a broker whereupon he would then
sell them to Mr.. Sage at the put
price.
From this point the stories diyerge,
Mr. Sage said recently, in discussing
the meeting;
Rock Island was selling at 13o
when Mr.. Nrocm, who held my puts
on 500 shares At prices ranging from
14O TO 153. gave me an order to buy
it at the market l turned the order
in to mX-hrnkers. But the tape was
% minutes behind time and the price
they had to pay was 1jj. OF course
this showed no profit TO Mr.. Vroom,
. but l could not help it."
J. H. Miller. the plaintiffs attorney
said in the course of an interview
explaining his clients side Of the
, case:
Mr.. Nroom demanded back the
privileges. but could not get them.
Nov, those privileges We're worth
, more than the actual profit that could
have been made on them in the trans
|. actions he authorized Mr.. Sage tC
y make. We think we have good
case"
Mr.. Sage. through his counsel, ha,
obtained an extension of time til
June so in which to file his answer.

state Prohibition.

In the report on Prohibition at the
last session of the Baptist State con-
rortion it reaffirmed our pledge to
ctate and National prohibition and re-
lived that a committee of nine be ap-
rointed by the President of the conven-
uon. selecting one from each circuit
court district, Judge J. B. Chrisman,
chairman, to take steps as they may
deem proper in procuring State prohi-
b,ron at the next regular meeting Of
our State Legislature.
Last December the Mississippi an
nual conference unanimously passed a
resolution as a part of the Report Of
temperance Committees" urging the
massage of a State prohibitory law in
Mississippi for the reason that it is be-
lieved the only way to hold the coun-
ties we have already is to Danish
whisky from the adjoining counties,
Now | suggest and urge the calling
Of a non-partisan Prohibition conven-
tion to assemble in the city of Jackson
on Tuesday the I'd, or Thursday the
4th day Of July next.
Any one reading this article that
agrees with me in calling Of a conven-
ton. drop me a card authorizing the
use of your name to a call and say
what time you suggest it should be
helI. Then organize a Temperance
Society and elect a delegate to the
convention. At the last session Of the
W. c. T. U. State convention they de
clared for State prohibition and at
their meeting in Jackson, May A.
they will no doubt reafiirm their form
er action.

Tho Bonnie Blue Flag"

The usually accurate Confederate
Veteran" in its May number publishes
version of the Bonnie :Blre- Flag"
and states that at was first sung in a
theatre at New Orleans in 1861" The
song was written by Harry Mccarthy,
and was first sung in Spengler's
theatre on the night of January 10,
1861. Mccarthy witnessed the vote
on the ordinance of secession at the
capitol, at the conclusion of which a
small blue silk flag, with white star
in the center, was presented to Presi-
dent W. s. Barry, who waved it as
the first flag of the young republic!"
The writer Of this paragraph put the
song in type from the authors manu-
script, and printed one thousand
copies, and he heard Mccarthy sing
it for the first time at Spengler's
theatre. 1t was shortly afterwards
printed in sheet-music form by A. E.
biackmer, New Orleans. and was
dedicated to General Albert Pike.
The song, as printed in the Confeder-
ate Veteran has only two of the orig
inal verses-the first and second. The
others appear to have been added as
the States seeded, and they are not
correctly added. The third verse, for
instance, reads:
First gallant South Carolina nobly made
the stand;
tla
hand:
Next quickly, Mississippi, Georgia and
All raised the flag, the bonnie blue flag
that bears a single star"
The States seeded IN the following
order:
south Carolina-December 20, 1860.
Mississippi-January 9, 1861.
Florida-January IL, 1861.
Alabama-January IL, 1861.
Georgia-January 10, 1861.
Louisiana-January 26, 1861.
Iexas-February 1, 1861.
Nrginia-April II, 1861.
Arkansas-May 6, 1861.
