SPECIAL DESPATCH TO Til E EVEN I NO TEIEGRAFII.
New Uucnhwick. N. J., July 5. This morn
ing was the lime appointed for the execution of
a in gro man ty the name of Joseph Williams,
for l tie murder or another negro named Jonu
Keildlck, on the 15Ui of November Inst. XI18
case Is such a curious oue that It will bear re
petition. Previous History of the AInrderer.
Joseph Williams, the guilty man, according
to the account which he nave your correspon
dent, was born a slave, iu Charleston, South
Carolina, and had rem-tied the age of tuirty
ntne years. When eighteen yenrs old he left
Charleston, and, still iu bondage, lived tlrst in
Bavanuah and then Iu Montgomery, Mobile,
and .New Orleans. Several years before the war
he contrived to escape from slavery, going first
to New York city, and subsequently to Canada.
Upturning to the United States, he lived awhile
in Boston and Halum, Mass., and New York city,
and then concluded to return to the Houlh.
At the time the war broke out he
was employed as a sugar baud on a plantation
fifteen miles from New Orleans. After the oc
cupation of New Orleans by the Federal troops,
lie returned to that city, and served for nearly
three years as the body servant of different
army oltleers. About three years ago he came
North with Major Lt. Ward, of New York, whose
servant he had been for over a year, and for
about the same period subsequently be acted
as coachman to Mr. Wtlllnm ward, the father
of the Major, who resided at No. 22 West Six
teen I h street.
After leaving the service of Mr. Ward, be re
mained for several months In New York city, a
great portion of the time in Idleness. About a
year neo he came to Middlesex county, of
which New Brunswick is the capital, and there
earned a livelihood tor some lime by cutting
wood and working out by the day as a farm
Land. At the time of
Tht Harder of John Reddlclc,
"Williams was at work In the woods, in Monroe
township, some fifteen miles t.om this place.
He resided In a small house, a portion of which
was occupied by his fellow-luoorer, Keddlck,
and the wife of the latter. It appears that Ked
dlck and Williams did not agree very well, and
frequent quarrelling were tne result. In which,
according to Williams' account, Keddlck always
came out best. On the day of the murder, Wil
liams hud a dispute with Roddick's
wlie concerning au Iron dinner-kettle, the
point at issue being as to whose dinner should
first be cooked In it. Keddlck was about to in
terfere In behalf of bis wife, when the anger of
Williams was aroused. The latter said he had
made up bis mind to have no more quarrels
with Keddlck, feeling quite sure that ho would
get worsted, especially as he was at the time
suffering from lameness in one of bis feet. Ho
he made up his mind to put his hated antago
nist out of the way without any more ceremony.
Going to his own room, be procured a loaded
gun, and then stepped out of doors, telling Red
dick to step out and be would settle the trouble
about the kettle. He then deliberately fired at
his antagonist, and the latter fell, surviving
long enough to utter the simple words, "Good
bye." Williams Gives Himself Up.
Having thus taken upon himself the guilt of
murder, he determined to give himself up to
the olllccrs ot the law. He hud ample opportu
nity to escape, as the reputation of the
murdered m-m was quite bad, and no great
exei lions would probably have been taken to
bring his murderer to justice. Williams, ac
cording to the determination which he formed
from the first, sought out a magistrate ami re
quested to be placed under arrest tor the mur
der of Reddlck, saying "I have shot the d d
nigger." But the magistrate was too incredu
lous to believe this story, and politely requested
Williams to "Go to the Devil, and there shoot
more of them!"
The guilty man appealed to another officer of
the law, with the same result as before, and not
until he had crossed the line into Monmouth
county did he succeed iu placing himself under
arrest.
iieing conducted to New Brnuswlck, he was
lodged in Jail until the April term of court, at
which his trial took place. Agreeably to his
persistent purpose from the first, he eutered a
plea of "guilty," but the Court refused to receive
it, and the plea wus relrncled. The trial, how
ever, was a mere formality, although Williams
wusublyand zealously defended; and having
been found guilty of murder in the first degree,
lie wus sentenced to be hung on the 5t.li of J uly.
The Prisoner's Demeanor
since his trial was entirely consistent with his
purpose in surrendering himself to the ottloers
of the law. He claimed K.reul credit for tuls
act, taying that he had acted from first to last
the part of an honest man. He was attended
during his Imprisonment by the Rev. C. J.
l'nge, pastor of the Plsoataquay Baptist Church,
In a neighboring township. With his spiritual
adviser, and, Indeed, with all who visited htm,
he talked freely and candidly .expressingla firm
belief in the mercy of Ood and the mediation
of the Bavlour. Iu all this he appeared to be so
enthusiastically sincere that 11 seemed Impossi
ble to doubt the truthfulness of his assump
tions. When conversing on religious subjects,
his iace would almost glow, and his eyes would
be upturned with an expression of unwavering
faith. Last evening he said to your corres
pondent, "The time Is short, I know; but it's
too long too long. To-morrow morning I shall
see Jesus 1 Tnis time to-morrow I shall be
climbing Jacob's ladder."
In person he was very large and stout, mea
suring about five feet eleven inches, and weigh
ing nearly one hundred and ninety pounds.
His features were small, and rather intelligent,
Lis hair short and crisp, and his complexion
thutof a full-blooiled African.

black pants and coat, while vest, and neat slip
pers Uurlng this some one remarked, "You
have got some good friends, Joseph;" to which

i...n.uiii xnnrii the soul " While thedreaa
was being put on him Williams exclaimed at
Intervals "I'll soon have on a better dress than
this," "i don't, want a KtaaOiug collar. Xum
It down. God don't want standing collars. I
look nice enough, for I'm going to heavou."

behind his back, and the black cap partially
draw n down over his head. Passing the cull of
Bridget Uurgau, Williams paused and com
menced exiioiling her to prepare for the fate
awaiting her. He told her that this was his
last day on earth, and that If she expected to
see him again she must "come to Jesus.'
During this exhortation the poor woman sobbed
violently and uttered piercing shrieks, which
could be heard throughout the prison.
The procession then passed out into the
prison yard, and the prisoner took his stand
under the gallows. He then addresed the
audience, briefly reiterating his belief that he
would soon be in a belter and happier world.
The Final Parting.
Kev. Mr. Page then read the6IstPsnlm, whl' h
the prisoner had stated expressed his present
convictions and feelings. Mr. I'ago then offered
a short prayer, the prisoner meanwhile sway
lng Ills body sliiihtly, and with upturned eyes
sinning, "I'm going to Jesus." "Williams thn
shook hands with his spiritual advisers, and
the sheriff, and his attendants, and after ttie
black cap had been drawn over his face repeated
several times "Good- bye! Let me go!"

coffee, or boiled corn soaked in water for a beverage.

Disasters to Crops In North Carolina.
1 Accounts from the interior of North Carolina give

all Hie low grounds In tbe country are overflowed.
The Wilmington Journal says that a miniature rice

curienton the broad bosom ot the old Cape Fear past
this city. It consisted of the turf or topmost soil of
a portion of some rice field above the city, about SO
feet In diameter, out of which the rice was crowing
finely. And tbe paper adds that the Cape Fear river
at this point for two days pitst has exceeded Its
boundaries, and spread Itself thrnugu the lower por

Only within halt a dozen years have we sobered d wn
to a serious effort to tulill the great pledge that, under
our rule, all men shall be free aud equal.
Could we limit this pledge to men probably the
century will not close without Its belug accom
plished; but its essence aud true meaning Include
both sexes, and we shall never be able to bind the
great. Declaration, like a frontlet, on unblushing
brows, while woman is disfranchised. We get
manhood equality aud representative government
Irom the Church; woman's equality in political
life herself man's fellow and comrade there we
ought to have brought from those German woods
w hence we issued ou our way to world-wide empire.
Feudalism stamped out this custom uuder Its mailed
heel: and, following this Irou rule, a civilization
brought from the Mediterranean Roman, Greek, and
Jewish seemed to bury out of sight forever this
Just and wholesome law. Rut the vitality of our race
and blood outlives all Imported customs. Slowly,
through feudal mall and the debasing one-haltness
of Oriental civilization, crops out again tbe old Ger
man habit woman mau's follow and comrade every
where. Alter sixty generations, and 4uou miles distant
from tbe cradle, the old features reappear. Mauy
years will not elapse before anotner visttor may
record, as Catsar did, lhat "on all grave matters they
take counsel with women." Then July 4 may be
hal ed lor Liberty Day as truly as Independence Day,
umJ uo thoughtful wn will need, as now, to hang his
he.;d when the great Declaration is read on this anni
versary inn this Fourth day of July will be renowned above
Us fellows. To-day assembles the Great, Council of
the Nation, In extra session, to see "that the Republic
receives 110 harm." Jx)l us hope they will Inaugurate
such a policy as wl'l reassure all men. Break up the
lauded aristocracy of Rebeldoui, and create millions
of sn all holdings the only sutliclent basis of the ballot-box.
Timid meu tear this will exasperate the
ltebels. They hale us as bitterly as they can already.
Nothing we can docan increase this hate. The mothers
are teaching their children to hute us. Nothing we
can do wit, give this hate longer life than such teach
ings Insure. Confiscation does not Increase biicq bale.
Confiscation ouly disarms it. If you cannot couvert
your enemy, it Is wise to take awuy bis arois. . This
confiscation does.
Sweep out of tbe way, by express declaration and
enactment, all these shams and spectres of pretended
Staie Governments. Increase, if necessary, the mili
tary force at the booth. Let no village, however dis
tant no man, however obscure be able to escape Its
all present control. Propoi e such amendments to the
Federal 1'oiiBtltution as shall render needless this vigi
lant supervision of, aud vexatious interference with,
State laws relating lo the negro race, lis appropriate
clauses cut dowu State sovereignty to suoh small
dimensions as shall leave no ground tor race-hatred
and clasr-leglslation to stand upon.
All these measures are needed la order that whole
some laws may have free course to run. But the
breakwater against which Congressional action beats
In vain is nut the booth. Dismayed, although em
bittered, the South leit to itself, would be on Us
knees. The traitor In the White House la the uatlou's
obstacle and the Kobels' hope.
Unless Congress dellberutelv Intends to waste the
next two years, and risk defeat In isas. It will Im
peach and remove the Inveterate and besotted Rebel,
and relieve us irom the Incubus of him and his Cabi
net. We venture tbe assertion that leading meu in
the Republican party see the necessity of this, and It
they reluse to do it, the sole reason will be fear of
harm to lhat party a fear which no evidence Justi
fies a risk irlillug beyond adequate description, un
less their conduct makes It otherwise.
Of course, we do not mean lhat you can Barely Im
peucli or successfully resist tne Pres dent it tbe nation
is to follow ihesad and disgracelul example of Mas
sachusetts. What a chapter of absurdities ! An In
stitution Freemasonry Illegal la Massachusetts
Us very existence a lie Invites a member's preseuce
at Its unholy rites. What right has the Goveruorof
Massachusetts to add dignity to such scenes?
Vet Mate olllciuls and city ufllclais crowd to Rive
Importance to the occasion. A Federal benator adds
his Indorsement. The President of Harvard Col
li ge, ol course, appears. The chief of the clorgy

I know the excuse the office, as (Shakespeare tells

contend that when Andrew J oh nson (not the Presi

ol excuse tor magistrates to notice him. When these

of tbe CHplain and orlicers of the Virginia, respecting

the conversation which took place between the com
mander of the United (states man-ot-war Tacony and
myself, so that you can order these Interesting docu
ments to he printed for circulation, while I sbull do
tbe same In Havana and the United ntates. I think
that you will share with me the IndUuatlon c msed
by the provocation and insult of Commander Rowe,
sided by his cannons; tor at least yon are a good
Mexican, and cannot view with Indifference the out
rages committed on lis by daring foreigners, who
take advantage of our weakness produced by our dis

I shall remain lo Havana for some time, aud
whether In lhat city or Vera Cruz, I shall be happy to

MURDER IN INDIANA COUNTY.
An Old and Respectable Citizen Murders
His 8oo-ln-Law-Th Perpetrator In
Custody.
The Indiana CPa.) Democrat of this week gives
the following details of an atrocious murder
perpetrated in that county: "The peaceful
community In the neighborhood of the village
of Washington, iu Canoe township, was startled
on Monday last by tbe commission of a cool
and deliberate murder, perpetrated by an old
and respectable citizen upon the person of his
own Bon-in-law. The murderer is Nicholas
Vandevtnder. and his victim John B. Bowers.
It appears that some time ago Vandevinder
divided his property between Iris two sons-in-law,
tbe deoeased, John B. Bowers, and Ell
Miller, with the understanding that Bowers,
who had got the home farm, was to keep him
during his life. Lately Vandevinder became
dissatisfied with his treatment, alleging that
he was persecuted and treated harshly by
Bowers and his family. This at length so
preyed upou him that he formed a deliberate
purpose to kill Bowers.
"On Monday morning last, after Bowers had
left the house and gone to a field a short dis
tance off. accompanied by his two little sous,
for the purpose of ploughing corn, Vandevinder
coolly and deliberately loaded his rltle, a most
formidable looking instrument of death, aud
followed him. Coucealing himself In a fence
corner, Vandevinder watted until Bowers
passed him, when taking deliberatealm he shot
him down, the ball entorlug his left side, kill
ing him instantly.. Tun murderer then went to
the house and packed a few clothes in his
saddle-bags, and taking his gun with him fled
In tbe direction of this place, taklog the road
leading to Plumville, which place be reached
In the evening, a distance of about 20 miles.
After the murder the little boys of Bowers,
who witnessed the shooting, gave the alarm,
and Immediate pursuit of the murderer was
made. Mr. Sumuel Meal, a near neighbor of
Bowers, followed close upou the track of Van
devinder, ond arrived at Plumville about an
hour after him. He procured the assistance of
Mr. T. H. Wynkoop, and Captain John Sutton,
who arrested and brought Vaudevluder to town
and committed him to jail. This Is a circum
stantial account of tbe afl'air, as detailed by Mr.
is'eal, and fully sustained by the admissions of
the prisoner.
"Tbe prisoner Is a fine-looking old man, aged
about flity-nlne years, and has heretofore borne
an irreproachable character. The deceased was
apparent a quiet, civil young man, aged proba
bly about thirty-five years, and leaves a wife
and several children to mourn his loss. The
murder appears to hove been perpetrated coolly
and deliberately, and Vandevinder when ar
rested did not deny the killing, but admitted It
and detailed all the particulars. He appears to
have bt en so exasperated at Bowers' conduct
that his passions overcame bis reason entirely,
and he even now does not realize fully his des
perate condition." . ,
