THE FENIAN DEATH PENALTY.
SENTENCE OF EXECUTION ON COLONEL BURKE AND
MH. DORAN COLONEL BURKE'S SPEECH IN
COURT JUSTIFICATION OF IRISH REVOLUTION
PATRIOTISM AND SELF-SACRIFICE.
From the Cork Herald. May 2.
At ten o'clock yesterday morning the Chief
JuBtioe, Baron Deasy, and Mr. Fitgerald took
their seats on the bench in Dublin.
The Fenian prisoners, Thomas F. Hurke and
Fatrick Doran, were put forward for the
seventh day of their trial.
At the sitting of the Court, Chief Justice
Whiteside summed up. It now became his
duty, he said, to draw the jury's attention to
the nature of the charge preferred against the
prisoners, to the law which affected that
charge, to the facts in connection with it, and
to the proofs that had been offered on the part
of the Crown in support of the indictment and
for the prisoners in defense.
The jury retired to consider their verdict at
twenty minutes to 3 o'clock, and returned
after a couple of hours.
THE VERDICT.
On the appearance of the Jury a dead stillness
, prevailed Id Court, and the calling over of their
names was a moment of Intense anxiety. Few,
Indeed, entertained a doubt as to the result.
Still there was in the minds of some a slight
nope that the Jury might have some doubt as to
the identification of Doruti, but the next mo
ment an nope was dispelled.
ine ioreman naving banded in the issue
paper,
. The Clerk of the Crown asked Have you
agreed to your verdict, gentlemen ?
Foreman Yes.
Clerk of the Crown Gentlemen, you find
that Thomas Burke, otherwise Thomas F.
Burke, and Patrick Doran, are guilty of the
. charges as specified in the first, second, third,
and fourth counts of the Indictment, you say,
"Although In the discharge or our duty we have
found a verdict of guilty againt the prisoners,
yet we wish to recommend Patrick Doran to
the merciful cons. deration of the Court, inas
much as It docs not appear that he was either
bo long or so actively eugaued as the other pri
soner In promoting the okJecU of this treason
able conspiracy."
Aauresbing tue prisoners, no saia: momas
F. Burke and Patrick Driran, you were indicted
for the crime of high treuson. You pleaded
"Not guilty," and put yourselves In the hands
of Gotland your country. That country has
found you guilty; haveyouanythlng now to say
why Judgment of deuth and execution should
not be passed upon you according to law?
THE SENTENCE.
SPKECII OF COLON 1CL THOMAS F. BURKE, I. B. A.
Thomas F. Burke, lu a clear and manly voice,
said:-My lord, it Is not my Intention to occupy much
of your time in answer to the question why the sen
tence or the Court should not be passed upon
lue; but 1 may, with your permission, review a little
ol the evidence that litis been brought against me.
The first evidence is that ot bub-Inspector Kelly,
who bud the conversation with me at Clonmel, in
Tipperary. He states that he asked me then, wuat
about my friend. Mr. (Stephens, that I made answer
and said lie was the most idolized man that ever was
or ever would be in America. Here, standing on the
brink ot my grave, in the presence of Hi almighty
and ever-livlug God, I brand that as being the
foulest perjury that ever a man gave utterance
to. No such conversation ever occurred; the uame of
(Stephens was not mentioned. I shall pass lrom
that and then touch ou the evidence of Ifrltt. He says
1 assisted lu distributing bread to the parties at the
fort, and that 1 stood with him on the wagon or cart.
That also Is false. 1 was not in the lortal the time. I
-was not there when the bread was being distributed.
I came in alterwards. All these assertions have been
made and submitted to tbe meu in whose bauds
my life ban beeu placed, as evidence made on
oath by these men, solely and purely lor the
purpose of giving my body to an untimely grave.
There are many points, my lord, that have been sworn
to here 10 prove my cumnlicliy. aud a great many
' acts bave been alleged that I look part In. It is not
' my Intention to give utterance to one word against
the sentence that has beeu pronounced against me. I
leel lully conscious of my honor as a mau, whlcii has
neerheen Impugned, lully conscious that 1 can go
into my grave with a name and character unsullied.
1 can say that these partles.eitheructuated by a desire
fur their own aggrandizement or to save their paltry
and miserable lives, bave pandered to the appetites,
If I may so speak, of justice, and my lire is to pay the
forfeit, Fully convinced audsatislied of the righteous
ness of my every act in connection with this
alleged revolutionary movement in Ireland, I
have Dothlng to recall, nothing that I would undo,
nothing to bring up the blush ot shame to mantle on
my brow. My conduct and career, both here and In
America, of which I bave been a citizen, and, If
you like, a soldier, is before you: and I leel lu this
very hour ot trial the consciousness of having lived
an honest man. and 1 will die proudly, believing that
if I bave given material aid to give freedom aud lib
erty to tbe laud of my birth. I bave done only that
which every Irishman whose soul throbs with a feel
ing of liberty should do. 1 feel 1 should not mention
tbe name of Massey. I feel I should not pollute my
lips with tbe name ot that traitor, wboe illegitimacy
bas been proved here the man whose name is not
known, and who, I deuy point blank, ever wore the
star of Colonel In the Confederate army. I shall let
hi in rest. I shall pass him, wishing him, In tba words
of the poet
"May tbe grass wltber from his feet! the woods
Deuy lilm shelter ! earth a home ! (he dust
I A gravel the sun bis light! aud heaven ber God !"
Let Manser remember fieiu this day fortb be car

Dawse, has slated, a serpent that will gnaw biscou

bell, from which be can never be separated. I, my
lords, bave no desire for tbe name ol a martyr: I ask
not the death of a martyr. But iritis the will or that

that holds my native land In tbe bonds of tyranny,
it has so often been admitted that the oppressed bave

by English statesmen, that I deem It unnecessary to

Now, my lord. In relation to tne Informer, Curydan. I
will make a lew remarks, It in perhaps before I come
to Corydan I should nay much has been spoken on
that tihle or Colonel Kelly and or the meetings held
at his quarters or bis lodgings In London. I desire to
any that I never knew where Colonel Kelly's lodgings
were In Jxmdnn until I beard the informer, Maasey,
announce It on the table. I never attended a meet
ing at Colonel Kelly's: and the other statements that
have been made on oath by him to you, gentlemen ot
ti Jury, I solemnly now declare on my oath, as a man
ay, as a dying man have been totally unfounded,
nd have all been lalse from beginning to end. In re
lation to tbe small paper Introduced to you, and
brought against me as evidence of mv having been
using that oath, I desire to say that that paper was
not taken lrom my person: I know no person whoso
nnme Is on that paper; O'llelrne. of Dublin, and those
other delegates you heard of, 1 never knew nor ever
met them; that paper hi-8 been put In for a pur
pose, but I swear positively It Is not In my hand
writing: I can also swear I never saw It. yet It Is
held In evidence against me. Is this Justice, or is
it right? Is this manly? 1 am willing, If I have
transgressed the laws, to suffer the punishment
of my offense: hut I object to this system of
trumping up a case to take away the life of a human
being I ask for no mercy. With my present ema
ciated frame, and my constitution nomewhatshattered,
It is heller that my life should be brought to au
end, than that I should drag out a miserable exist
ent e in the prison pens of Portland. Thus It Is, my
lord, 1 accept of fie verdict; of course my acceptance
ot It Is unnecessary, hut I am satisfied wi ll It, aud
now 1 shall close. There are many feelings that
at tuate me at this moment. In fact, these few
(linriiiitiecied remarks can give no Idea or wbat I
(lehlre o say to the court. I have a family I love as
much as any man In Ibis court can love his. Iran re

of old, "Co, my boy, return either with your shield or

past sins; I hope, too, thai inasmuch as lor seven hun
dred years lie bus preserved Ireland, notwithstand
ing the tyranny to which she has been subject, that as
a separate and distinct nationality. lie will also
assist her to retrieve ber fallen lortunes, and to rise
in her beauty, the sister Columbia, the peer ot auy
nation lu the world,
At the conclusion of this speech some sympathetic
applause was manifested in Court, but was instantly
suppressed.
MR. DORAN'B SFERCII.
Chief JuBtice Hue the other prisoner got anything
to SBJ'T
Mr. Doran said he had not muoh to add to what bad
already been expressed by bis fellow-prlsouer and
compatriot. He also was conslgued to an early
grave upon sworn falsehoods. The policeman, suerl
dan, Vint on that table and, with a smile on bis
countenance, swore he (Mr, Doran) commanded the
riflemen on the nlgbt ot the Sib. aud acted as alde-de
camp or snballeru ollicer under l.ennon. Whoever
Lennon was he did not know. Hherldan also swore
that he saw him at tbe attack on the barracks
at Glencullen. when tbe police surrendered. Now.
there were men who could give another kind of
evidence, but they were not brought on the
table to prove his Innocence. He never spoke one
word to him that night, ortoanybodv; bis meeting
with Meares was quite an accident a man he never
saw or knew before that night. He forgave them all
as be hoped God would forgive blm; and all he wished
now to say was to return heartlell thanks to the able
and eloquent counsel tbat defended him. and to bis
solicitor, Mr. Lawless.
The Judges then retired, and after about a quarter of
an hour's deliberation lu chamber, they returned into
court,
ADDRESS OF LOUD CHIEF JUSTICE WHITESIDE.
The Chlel Justice, addressing the prisoners, said:
Thomas F. Burke and Patrick Doran, after a pro
tracted and carelnl investigation into your respective
cases by a Jury whose patience was unwearied, you
bave been found guilty. and you are now called on to
receive the last seutence ol the law for the blgbesl
crime known to tbe law, tbat of high treason against
the Queen. Nothing indeed remains for me but
to perform tbe lad aud painful duty imposed
upon me by tbe law, and that duly Is to pro
nounce the sentence which I cannot change or alter.
( H is lord Mb ip here put ou the black cap.) Tbat sentence

affected, and many persons In tbe court abed tears.)
The prisoners were iben removed.
THE GALLOWS.
PUBLIC EXECUTION IN CANADA.
FIFTEEN THOUSAND PEOPLE PRESENT, ETC.
Sorf.l, C. E., May 3. To-day, at twenty-seven
minutes past 11 o'clock, I'roveucherBuH'ered the
extreme sentence of the law for tbe murder of
Jutras, In January, 1SU7.
THE CRIME.
The mnrderer resided at St. Zephlrin, C. E ,
and was on terms of Intimacy with a neighbor
named Jutras. Not only was Jutras unfortu
nate in this Intimacy; It was his crowning mis
fortune to possess a wife. Between Mrs. Jutras
and Frovencher a casual acquaintance ripened
Into criminal intimacy, the injured husband,
with most convenient and customary blind
ness, suspecting nothing of his wife's affec
tion lor ber paramour. On one occasion
the guilty eouple visited Sorel, aud passed as
man aud wite. Their clandestine meetings were
very frequent. In November Provenclier'a wife
went wilu him to call on Jutras. After an evening
spent in virtuous and prosy conversation, a fes
tive bottle was produced and one tumbler filled
for M'me Frovencher. For the first time on
record her husband declined the seductive fluid.
She quailed the llowiug bowl, and, as ipight be
expected, died at once. Public suspicion among
the rencn mnnuiuus is it pniut ui siuw growiu.
Nothing was thought of this event, aud the
disconsolate widower sougut refuge In the
bosom of the Jutras family. Here tie abode in
peace, mourning his dead wife, and behaving to
Airs. Jutras like all her male relations, especially
her husband. Bo the abandoned couple lived
until the 5th of Jannaw. when Jutras went
forth to labor. His spouse provided him Willi a
flask of whisky and strychnine. Frovenouer
accompanied him; and with a praiseworthy ab
stinence, too rarely met with among the French
Canadians, declined to drink with his com
panion. Jutras imbibed to such an extent that
he came home trembling convulsively, uuring
bis illness he was dieted on strychnine and
soup, so that eventually ne succumoeu ana
died. His spouse sought consolation lu the arms
of Frovencher.
TRIAL AND CONVICTION.
The cud and measure of the Iniquity of these
adulterers and murderers filled at last. Suspi
cion became aroused, amd an inquest was held.
At the March assizes at Worel the guilty pair
were Indicted and tried. Five minutes' delibe
ration by the Jury ended In a verdict ot "guilty,"
and tbe prisoner was sentenced to be uanged
on the 3d ot May.
His paramour ana accomplice was luuiutcu at
the same time and found guilty. Her counsel
pleaded a a reason why execution should be
delayed, the fact that she was soon to become
a mother. Investigation by a Jury of matrons
confirming this, her execution was deferred
until next jNOveinuer, wuou, uu too uuiu,
she will expiate ber offense against the laws ot

that the atrocity anu uareiuceu uutum oi mo

prisoner was informed that he must prepare to

The good nuns of the congregation, and the
Catholic clergy of the vicinity, attended to the
spiritual welfare of the prisoner, w th the demo
tion which is their constant characteristic. But
although they continually exorted hiiri to make
a public confession of his guilt, he steadfastly re
fused to do so. ever protesting his innocence.

abhcnci). whence he only roused himself with
an ellort painful to behold.

InBt, bui not soundly, waking frequently with
Anxious, shuddering starts, and moaning fit
times, "Ce n'claitpas moi" ("It was not I").
THE SCAFFOLD,
Meanwhile without the gallows had been
erectt tl, and the inlnlHier of death waited for
his victim. The excitement among the simple
country folk of the neighborhood as the day of
execution approached had been Immense.
Threats M ere widely circulated of the intention
of Hie mob to tear down the gallows and pre
vent the execution, and tbe sherlll and Jailor
bad telegraphed urgently to Hie At tornty-(Jen-eral
for troops and a detachment of poiloo to
guard the scaffold.
'1 he latul day dawned grey and gloomy, with
occasional showers, no except Ion to tbe disiinil
three weeks of rain aud raw weather which
had preceded it. From an early hour the little
town of Borel was all alive. The roads were
crowded and choked with French carts and
skeleton horses, and three hours ere the exe
cution l he space around the fatal tree was
thronged Willi grey coaled habitant and poke
bonneted women, all bound to the scene of the
last net In the tragedy of Frovencher's guilty
Hie. Every moment the crowd tnlckened until,
as the bells tolled out and every head wivs
baled, fi out ten thousand to fifteen Ibousuud
liiiiht have been present.
The prisoner awoke early, and dressed aud
shaved carefully. He at first betrayed consider
able agitation, but as the day advanced became
culm utid t-eir-possesNbcd. Ills spiritual adviser
was with him from an early bour. He bade fare
w II to nil the oftlcers of the prison, and then
continued some moments In conversation with
the director.
THE LAST SCENE.
At thirteen minutes past eleven tho cortece
moved out and directed their way in solemn
silence to the scaffold. Tho prisoner walked
very steadily, with a cheerful couuieuuuco, but
Willi his eyes cast down. On mounting tue
scadolii the rope was immediately adjusted by
tbe executioner, a tall Canadian, with brawny
arms half bared, and a blackened face. The
prisoner desired It f be left loosely about his
neck while he received the last rites of religion.
During the ceremony his face was very pale,
but his Hps set firmly without a quiver. He
declined to acknowledge his guilt to the very
lust. He then told the hangman to tighten the
rope, the cape was drawn down over his eyes
and the drop fell instantaneously. The body
fell the length of the rope, one or two convul
sive tremors agitated the knees and lower por
tion of the legN, and then the body swung sus
pended and motionless, a lifeless oorpse. In a
few seconds more than three minutes life was
extinct,
A piercing shriek was heard a second be ore
the orop lell. It proceeed from Sophia Boisclalr
(Mrs. Jutras). who, from tne window of her
cell, bud watched the procession move to the
foot of tbe gallows. But her agitated mind
failed at tbe supreme moment, and with a loud
shriek she lalnled. Her hands clung so closely
to the bars of her window thai force was neces
sary to uurivet their grasp before she could be
removed by the attendants.
The vast crowd now began to disperse quietly
and In perfect order. The corpse still swung
aud turned in the raw air. In a few moments
more it was cut down and cofQned, aud one of
the guiltiest wretches that has ever disgraced
humanity in Canada has gone to bis last
account, and was ensepultered in unhallowed
ground. If. Y. Herald.
OBITUARY.
HENRY B. JENKINS HISTORY. OF THE FHCENIX
BANK DEFALCATION AN OLD MAN'B CRIME,
FOLLY, AND PUNISHMENT.
At half-past 1 o'clock: on Saturday morning,
in one of tbe ward rooms of St. Luke's Hospital,
the curtain fell on the last scene of one of the
most remarkable dramas of crime which has
been recorded in many years. At that hour
Henry B. Jenkins, the defaulting teller of the
PhcL-nlx Bank, died, in tbe fifty-first year of his
age and the second of bis incarceration, broken
down by the remorse and fearful mental suffer
ing consequent upon the crime with which he
stood charged.
Tbe facts of the case are briefly as follows:
On the afternoon of August 10, I860, Henry B.
Jenkins was arrested on the complaint nf John
Parker, cashier of the Fhceuix Bank, on a
charge of embezzlement, and on the same day
was locked up to await an examination. The
amount of his defalcations, after several days
spent In inspecting bis books, was ascertained
to be about $300,000, and his mournful fate
stands out in bold and terrible relief as a
fearful example of the consequences of yielding
to the temptation of dishonesty. The unfortu.
nate man died In almost absolute want, save
only such ministrations as his relatives and
friends were wont to bestow upon him in his
hours of afUictlon. The money which he so
recklessly or thoughtlessly converted to un
lawful uses vanished like a mist in
less time than It had occupied him In appro
punting It. For some time previous to his de
tection and arrest he appears to have fallen Into
the bunds of others, whose designs seemed to be
to extort the lil-gotton gains from the tempted
and fa. leu man. The first ot these proved to
be James H. Earle, a person who had formerly
occupied the position of book-keeper In Uie
bank, and who had beeu removed about six
mouths previously. This person had, it ap
pears, aided Jenkins in the abstraction of the
funds and the lalse balancing of the books,
aud lils share of the ill-gotten proceeds
amounted to about $100,000. Ou the even
ing of the same day upon wuloh Jen
kins was arrested, Earle also was taken into
custody, and locked up In a cell of the Twenty
ninth Frecinct (station House. For a time
during the evening he conversed pleasantly,
but subsequently became apparently depressed,
and laid down to sleep shortly after 11 o'olock.
That sleep was but the precursor of tbe last long
slumber in which the unhappy man was des
tined Koon to be enwrapped. At 8 o'clook on
tbe following morning an offioer entered the
cell. Earle was prostrated on the floor, bis
corpse cold and stiff. An open penknife, a pool
of blood, aud a ghastly wouud In his throat told
the fearful story. The defaulter's. accomplice
had committed snlclde. In bis pocket was
found a brief note of farewell to some relatives,
a prayer for the future of his' little surviving
child, and a request that he might be burled
beside his wife, "dear Dorie."
The other persons most prominently con
nected with Jenkins in his crime were Uene
vieve Lyons, alias Vleve Brower. a waiter girl
in a Broadway concert saloou; her paramour,
Charles Davis, alias Sam Brower, and a member
of the demi-monde named Kosa Frazer. To the
former he had evinced considerable attachment,
making her frequent presents of considerable
sums of money, and ultimately furnishing ele
gant apartments for her use la Bleecker street.
The girl Vieve gave sruu'l sums of money to her
paramour Davis, and he also occasionally re
quested loans of varioUB amounts from Jenkius
wiiich were always teudered. "No threats,''
euid Jenkins, "were necessary to a man In my
position." Davis knew enough of the secret to
insure acquiescence.
Kosa Fiazer eugaged the attention or the be
trayed and unhappy mau lor a period, and his
visits were frequent to her place of residence.
She received lrom him numerous sums of
money, and, among o ber valuable articles, a
baudsome cluster diamond ring valued at $1000.
Her acquisitions, however, proved as evanes
cent, though not so fatal, as did those of tbe
misguided donor. A ....
After his confinement in the Tombs, Jenkins
became comparatively calm aud resigned, and
not at all uuwilling to converse with the lew
visitors who obtained access to his cell. At
several Interviews with friends he expressed
himself in a manner which would Indicate that
he was less unhappy after his arrest than while
at liberty revelllug in a career of luxury, ele
gance, profligacy, and abandon. During those
hours when he bestowed money squaudoriugly
on all those for whom he coucelved au attach
mentor passing feeling of friendship, he seemed
to have had a presentiment of the Damooleau
sword which quivered above his head and
brought shame aud a dismal retribution in its
fall.
After several examinations before the Essex
Jluiket 1'eUva Cvurt, wulcU icsullouia unfold
ing nndenlable proofs of bis gollt, he was 00m
mlllcd for trial. At the September term, 1H8.
of the Court ol General Sessions, he was Indicted
ou a charge of embezzlement and grand lar
ceny, and on the 14th of the same month he
pleaded not guilty. His trial was set down for
the following Monday, but was ou that day
postponed until the ensuing Friday. On Friday
It was again postponed, Indefinitely, and a
greater tril.nnal than that of man bus now
cullt d the criminal tn the bar of an unalterable
and unlmpeanhably Just retribution.
Thus closed the shadows of deal h around a
brow shaded through maturity of years with
that honorable frost which of Itsolf commands
respeotand venerallon; much more so where
the integrity and purity or the cnaraeier has
been preserved through the slivering years as
chnsle and unblemished as the honored grey
tresM's.
During his several examinations little was
ever gleaned concerning the antecedents of the
now departed man, but it was asserted that he
was a native of Western New York, and was of
highly respectable family. He had been, at
the lime of his detection, In the employ of the
Fhceuix Bank for twenty years, and had during
that period been regarded as Irreproachably
honest, though ha I an examination of his
books been made some years prior to the ulti
mate exposure. It is believed tbat they would
have exhibited a deficiency. He was of a natu
rally quiet and unobtrusive tempera
ment, and this fact of itself would have
served to disarm suspicion had it ever
arose, as lu a majority of instances a
delHiilter is a fast and dashing man. His bal
ances always appeared on the books scrupu
lously exact, and his peculiar correctness was
uttrlbtited to the fact of his unusual slowness,
rather than to studied attention for the pur
pose of concealing his malappropriatlons. He
hud a habit of carelessness In almost every
thing but the keeping of his books, and upon
enltrlng the counting-room would usually
throw his coat in one place, his hat or gloves in
another, and his loose papers were generally lu
like disorder. The only assets of value he pos
sensed at the time of bis arrest were a lew thou
sand dollars' worth of shares In netroleum
stock, as be did not keep house, but boarded In
a private family in Union place. He leaves a
wife, a most estimable lady, aud four children
to mourn a husband and a parent's iutal indis
cretion. N. r. Herald.

GOVERNOR BROWNLOW'S ADDRESS TO
THE l'EOPLE.
Governor Brownlow has published a long
address to the State, in which he reviews the
action of the Democrats in the Legislature, in
opposing colored suffrage, answers the
charges that he was formerly a defender of
slavery, and presents the situation as fol
lows: "There are but two parties In this country,
and In the nature of things there can be but
two parties now one tlie party ior the Union,
the Republican party, or, if you please, tbe
radical party, standing up to and endorsing the
American Congress. The other is tbe repre
sentative of the Kebel party, sometimes calling
Itself the conservative party, sometimes tbe
National Union parly, and aealn the Constitu
tional Democratic party. This ring-streaked
and striped itebel party led us Into war and
Hebellion, and It is time to leave It in its
wickedness. We bave but two alternatives.
We muBl go with the Rebel party, with all their
infamy and the blackness of their record, or
with the only party competent to crush it. and
tbat is the Republican party. We have again
beiore us the issues of 1801, and tbe Republican
parly alone has the power to save us. Whether
successful or otherwise at the polls, I stand
upon this platform of principle.
"lam charged with inconsistency, in that I
am, as an Old Line Whig, advocating the prin
ciples of the Republican party. A Republican
Congress has inaugurated Henry Clay's Ameri
can system a system tbat I have advocated for
the lust thirty years. A protective tariff, the
construction of the great Pacific Railroad, the
improvement of rivers and harbors, the esta
blishment of a national currency, etc., fill Mr.
Clay's bill fully, and give the country what I
have all the time contended for. With what
show of consistency can Uplon men of any
stripe now come out and act with the Rebel
Democratic party The Democracy of the
South Inaugurated the Rebellion, and the
Democracy of the North aided, abetted, encou
raged, and sustained the Rebellion. The Demo
cratic leaders resolved in their Chicago Con
vention, In 1864, that the war for the Union was
a failure, and Mr, Elheiidgejolned them in the
support of their ticket eucouraglng and sup
porting desertions from the Union army.
"The Southern Democratic Rebellion cost 'ink
country 600.000 lives and $0,000,000,000, 'and
carried mourning and desolation into every
household, North and South. The Democratic
leaders instigated riots at theNorlh; they con
spired to release the Rebel prlsloners at Camp
Douglas, and to surrender Northern cities to
their tender mercies I And this same party
nerved the arm of Booth to assassinate the
patriot Lincoln I
"In perfect keeping with the rebellious spirit
of the Rebel Democracy, North and South, has
been the action of the late treasonable conclave
at Nashville. They have uominated lor Gov
ernor Emerson Elherldge, who advised the
people of Tennessee, on the slump, as late as
18G5, to overthrow tho State Government
by lorce to shoot down the tax collectors and
neproef asserted that the negroes were as
much slaves as they ever were and for this
treason be was arrested and imprisoned by
Major-General Thomas. This mau represents
the spirit and principles of the Convention that
nominated him, and all this class of traitors will
rally to his support. The nomination of Mr.
Etberidge was not made In the expectation of
electing him, but t& produoe mischief. Promi
nent memuers of the Convention admitted, the
evening after the nomination was made, tbat
tbey did not expect to elect him. This nomi
nation of a man who has been hatching and
plotting treason and sedition against the State
Government since its organization; a man who
proclaims tbat the Ktato Constitution has not
been amended; that the colored people are yet
slaves; that violence In overthrowing the State
Government is Justifiable; that disobedience to
the laws and breaking up of the courts are
also Justifiable all this discloses a state of the
Reb' 1 mind that many good men did not think
existed; and in the estlmstion of tho publicjus
titles the enactment of the 'Militia Law,' and
other extreme radical measures.
"Wherever these violent speeches are made,
inflaming the bad passions of bad men. I deem
it my duty to station troops, and shall do so
let the consequences be what they may. And
altliough tlie greaUst Imaginable freedom of
tbepiess aud of speech should be allowed to
meu of all parties, and the conduct of publio
men and their measures should be criticized
without reserve, I do not conceive it to be the
duly of the Slate guards to stand quietly by
and hear any man excite the mob spirit by
denouncing tbe Federal and Stale Govern
ments, resistance to the courts, and the set
ting aside of their decisions by force or mob
violence.
"With these opinions briefly set forth, I submit
my interests to the loyal voters at tne ballot
box to be disposed of on the first Thursday in
August. So fur as I am individually conoerned.
my success or defeat will amount to nothing,
but it is of the first importance to the Slate, aud
to the Union men, that the princtplcg which my
nomination represents should triumph.
"W. O. Buownlow,
"May 8. 1867."

Ciohs examined We were married In August, IMS;
my husband did not live lu Orchard street from May
until l ecemher. 1S66.
Ollicer T. Hilverlborne sworn I was In Court when
this recurred; I wan there a' a witness; I was turning
round to see I he prlsnnercome in the door; two women
eaaiu first, and then Kllei; Just as he turned tbe dock,
coming round the corner, Leis put down his arm and

minutes from the lime I took him into tbe Clera's

Cros-exanilned I had seen the deceased In the
dock a number oi times, but I had no recollection ot
his being there a year beiore.
Here the Commonwealth closed.
Tbe Court adjourned at half-past o'clock until this
morning.
THIS MORNIHO'8 PROCEEDINGS.
Lewis O. CAssidy, Esq., opened for the defense. He
said: It Is not often that counsel lu a case of this kind
in any caseot homicide feel so macu impressed
by the importance of the cause as both the counsel do
in tli's case. Iudeed, It Is very rare that twelve
gentlemen are selected that bave the power tbat you
have. I beg to call your attention to the fact that
your powers In this case and 1 say It with all gravity
siid all seriousness are second only to laat ot the
Omnipotent: lor In your keeping are the Issues ot
life and death: In your keeping are the good
names not only of tbls defendant and bis wire, but
the good and the fair names of his little ones aud
all who are bound by lies or marriage aud of blood to
him. While these Issues are in your keening, gentle
men, I know that I need only to remiud you to give
the same serious a' en tion and deliberate and thought
ful action which you should give to all cases pre.
sented to you.
Now, gentlemen It was said at the outset of this
case by the learned District Attorney In an elaborate
opening, that this was a case without parallel, lie
hadn't known of such a case; he hadu't met with such
a ruse In his reading. There ure some things thai we
will agree with the Commonwealth about, aud at
the very outset we agree with this position.
Before we get through with the defense, you will
agree with me and with blm. that no case like this
ever occurred upon this continent, and he bas not
been unfortunate enough to meet any like it la his
reading. Del nie Invite you, gentlemen, to go with
me In your mlna's-eye a little while lu the early part
ot April, lKSC, and let me ask you to accompany mu
to the northern part of the city of Philadelphia, In
Orchard street. Let me taka you to tha humblest of
bumble homed.
When you enter. It will strike you with Its cheerful
ness, Its cleanliness, Its pleasant aud bright surround
ings. You will find in it a faithful, devoted wife; you
will find four little children, tin eldest of lliem twelve
years of age bright, cheerful, aud happy lu this
home, and known throughout the neighborhood as
the very embodiment or virtue.
In the upper part of this house you will find a man
at work at bis simple culling of bootmaker known
throughout that neighborhood for years, known t ) his
employers, known to his relations, to his companions,
to his church and his friends, as the model of all that
constituted tbe humble but houesl citizen of the Com
monwealth. An upright, bumble, and honorable mas, against
whose fair fame no man living, to that day nor to
this, has ever uttered the slightest breath of suspi
cion. That man was the presiding deity, we may
Bay, of thai household. Thomas De's was that man.
He presided over that household, with his wife and
the four children that are now In Court, wltu the
four little ones that gathered around his hearth.
Mr. Cussldy then went on to describe the peaceful
and happy home nf Leis previous to the seduction ot
his daughter by Eller, and after be had committed
tbat horrible act, the heart of Leis was on tire, and
Iieroons telling him that Justice would not be dous
lim, be shot the seducer of bis child.
The speaker thought the Jury would have no diffi
culty in rendering a verdict of not guilty.

COURT OF QUARTER HE-islON8-Judge Brew
ster. I'rison cases were before the court to-day.
Oeorge Hpence was acquitted of a charge of the lar
ceny or two bushels or potatoes. 1 ne owner or ine
potatoes told the prosecuting officer tbat he had beea
fully compensated for his Toss, and expressed a de
sire to bave the prisoner prosecuted no more. There- .
fore the bill was submitted without evidence. It was
not a question as to whether be bad stolen (he pota
toes or not.
William Grubb was convicted of a charge of the
larceny of two pounds of randies, valued at 40 cents.
Johu U. C rawford was charged with fraudulently
making a written Instrument and fraudulently utter- .
Ingthesame. The allegation upon the part of the .
Commonwealth was. thai In tba early part of April
the , rlsoner wrote to II. V. Hloan, commission mdr
chfltit. No 31 Houih Water street, from Charleston,
representing himself to be possessed of largo quanti
ties of rosin, and rcquemlnK Mr bloan to take tho
rosin Immediately upon arrival, and make the best
sale possible ot ft.
In these letters he Hated that ha was in business,
and wished to form a connection Willi Mr. tiloau's
i'blludeli bla house, lie siatd that he had shipped
a cargo of rice lor I'hlladelphln by sea. lie himself
called upon M r. Sloan on the .2d or April, aud said he
v. a very much surprised that tbe in voice aud bill of
lading ot the cargo had not been received.
On ibe'Jid I called again nod produced the Invoice
and bills 01 lading, and asked an advance oI$hio oo
upon Ihe goods: he endorsed the bills of lading to Mr.
(Sloan's order, end received tbe check. But before ho
had caxheH the check he was arrested.
The captain ol the vessel hy which these goods were
said to have been shipped, testified that he arrived In
this port from I hnrlesion In Ihe ad of May, and that
his cargo consisted solely of wet lumber and about a
pound ot rosin.
There was no evidence to show that these bills ot
lading were made In the jurisdiction of ibis Court;
therefore, a conviction upon the first cause of the In
dictment, charging the making of these instruments,
was not pressed for: but there appeared to be suffi
cient evidence tn induce the Commonwealth to press
for a verdict upon the several counts charging tha
fraudulent iBSulug of these Instruments, Verdict
