Hall Malone. the negro who plead
ed guilty to assault, was hanged at
Van Buren ON the 7th inst Malone
committed an assault on Mrs Rebec-
ca Mcleod at her home six miles
from Van Buren, ON September last.
The execution was public, in conform
ity to an act of the last general as
sembly. Malone showed a stOlid and
ignorant Indifference to the last. ex-
pressing no regret or remorse The
crime for which he forfeited his life
under the law was heinous. one that
only such a character could commit.
and it is doubtful if he realized the
penalty eXacted. Shortly after the
crime was committed, the guilty man
was apprehended and made a full
confession At first it seemed that
a lynching could not be averted. but
the officers pledged the people that a
speedy trial should be had Malone
was arraigned in a few days and en-
tered plea OF guilty, when the death
penalty was assessed by the trial
Judge The question then arose over
the legality of the sentence being car
ried out, Gov Davis taking the view
that a defendant. upon d plea of gull
ty before the court sitting as jury.
could not be given the death penalty.
The governor stated, however. he
would not interfere with the execu-
tion OF the law. but suggested that
the supreme court be alloewd to pass
upon the case. and ordered the con.
demned man placed in the state pen
itentiary, where he remained until a
few days before his execution.

An interesting matter was decided
by Mr. Justice Riddick in the SUI
preme court last week One Rufus
johnson was indicted by the Jackson
county grand jury for murder in the
second degree Before trial in the
circuit court the circuit judge, upon
eX parte testimony. it is said, con
cluded that the grand jury had not
done its duty and that an Indictment
for murder in the first degree should
have been returned He, therefore.
referred the matter to the next grand
jury, thus, in effect, setting aside the
indictment of the first grand jury In
the meantime he committed Johnson
to Jail, and Johnson made applica-
tion for bail. which was refused. In
this way the matter was taken to the
supreme court, on Johnson's applica-
tion for bail
Justice Riddick upheld the decision
of the lower court, and refused bail,
holding that while the circuit Judge
had express authority. after trial had
commenced, to stop the trial and re
mand the matter for the investigation
to another grand jury, when. in his
opinion. the Indictment should have
been for a greater offensc. il was also
obvious to have the same power be-
