FRIDAY, JULY 28, 1805.
TO TEM MEN OF THE SOUTH.
You, my countrymen, with whom for many
years I have peacefully lived, with whom my
interests are joined, with whom my tan& and
chattels are lying, with whom I bare both
prospered. and suffered, to whom my heart
goes out, and for Whom my prayers go up,
will not, I am sure, wholly refuse to listen to
a few words of honest (and I hope you may
think wise) advice from me. Let me here
repeat what many of you have often heard
from my lips, though under very different
circumstances from these under. which I now
write. Whatever are your interests are my
own. All I have is among you. Your country
was long since chosen for my country, and
your home for my home. With voice and pen,
both North and South, 1 long °AN : mated your
interests and upheld your institutions—never
for a moment wavering in your or their de
fence, till you yourselves put it beyOrulmy
WATT to defend them further. In fact, up to
the date of the Charleston Convention, the
labor was easy; for, though often attacked,
they were never` endangered until you yout
selves set aside the securities that preserved
them, and made it impossible to preserve
what the whole world shrank from protecting.
Setting aside all other Questions, it is, indeed.
marvellous that your wise men and great
leaders did not see that the only possible
security to your slave property was' your
GREAT CONSTITUTIONAL incur, Under which
the whole strength of the nation. Sorth and
South, became your own strength in its de
fence. No matter how much a section might
Lath against you, it must still ad with
you. But when this constitutional right was
abandoned, and Us guar:micas thrown away,
all guarantee:4 were gone; for you have never
failed' Yo see, in common with all the world,
1.)1112 310 Minn, no Government, has a naturai
right to enslave another, whatever—whether
good or bad—he its effect upon the enslaved,
or its profit to the enslaver; and with no natu
ral right, with no constitutional right giving
a moral, political, and physical strength be
yond your own; with the world against it, and
only tolerating it because of the great power
beneath it, it is stninge that yon, so deeply
interested, were not the first to see that, with
that power removed from its suPPort — more,
turned to attack it, exactly that must happen
which bas—its total overthrow.
Under suet, circumstances, no matter what
might have been its moral slatus--hail it beat
an institution full of purity and Christianity,
as well as prod I —slay ery must have been swept
away, as ii has been.
But 1 do not recur to these errors of judg
ment that seem to be gone by for the purpose
of harrowing up the putt, but because they.
are not gone bi/ ; for the tune train of YE:ll*cm
ing that would have saved you life years ago,
may now preserve you from further and
greater evils.
If slavery could not be preserved, do you
think its fragments can be gathered and a
new life given it 1 No, my countrymen. Our
destiny is rpon us. - 1011 r old slaves are free
men. Yon mutt grasp the great fact as it ex
ists, in ali its huge dimensions. Accept your
fortune uSTrovidence hath dealt it out to you,
and manfully, yet willingly, set yourselves to
meet its responsibilities, and give such direc
tion to its new phases as shall secure the good
that isleft us. And though the sufferings have
been terrible, sad the tosses enormous, we
may still hope and believe (for the ways
of Cod, though inscruiable; are wise and
merciful,) that by early, wise, and liberal ac
tion—by at once seeing, Accepting, and acting
upon our ,condition, a new system of labor
may be inaugurated, and anew element of
society reared, that shall leave the next gene
ration, and perhaps our own, in better condi
tion than the present has ever been. But this
can only be done by your own prompt and
liberal action.
While the blacks were slaves they were
docile, tractable, and safe. To-day they are
at liberty, and easily moulded to either good
or evil. If left to themselves, uneared for, or, if
eared for in a way that shall prove oppre.ssive
told unjust, there will be but one tendency
among them, and that. to unmitigated evil,
For a little, the military power may and will
control them ; but soon that will be withdrawn,
and ultimately it rests with Southern men
alone whether the negro masses shall be surely
and steadily, though perhaps slowly moulded
into an intelligent, industrious, frugal element
of society, with humble, but quiet and roace•
able homes—laboring zealously for their own
advancement and the profit of their employees
or whether the enormities of St. Domingo shall
be enacted all over our fair Southern land
while its blood is Vowing and its dwellings
Smoking from border to border. NO race of
Men can remain long where the negroes now
stand. They are freedmen, but not freemen.
They are ignorant, prejudiced,wilful, and whol
ly unprepared for the duties of freemen. They
cannot rest where they are. They must either
go up to that intelligence their new condition
requires, or down to that of the savage, to
which, if left alone, it is sure to hurry them.
To the latter, they can go of themselves. To
the former, they can only lie carried by the -
prompt, friendly, and liberal action of their
old masters, who, of all the world, are not, only
The west interested in them, but care the most
for them. Nor do they fail to see that the des
tinies of the Southern white men and black
men are still closely linked together.
They are upon the same land, and will so re
ntal% The black looks to the white for guid
ance alit support, and he Wilt lupin the latter
if not the former. He must look to him either
with confidence or distrust. He Will regard
him with either love or hatred; and eventn- .
ally be will either assist bim from his present
troubles, or plunge him into such as be has
never yet endured.
If you I:110 have been their - masters, and to
whom they have always looked for support
and cosmic], will now (seeing the necessities
of your own interests as well as theirs) set to -
the task of showing yourselves their best
friends mid guardians, and begin the work of
raising them into intelligent freemen 5 if you
wiil give the motive for diligence and
Sobriety by making them capable of enjoying
their fruits ; if you will bola up to their hopes
the ultimate boon and privilege of freemen—
future enfranchisement and citizenship, as
they and their children become educated and
prepared for it—the great work wily be done ,
and both you aril they saved from horrors
in contemplation of which so many are now
trembling . ,
But howls this to be done I Gather your old
servants around you ; locate them in their old
cabins; let them improve them what they
will, and add such comforts as they can; give
them a piece of land; employ them at rea
eomode s, ages, in proportion to what they do;
legislate at mien in their behalf ; give them
Public-schools, for they arc free, and must be
educated, or their freedom will ruin boils
them and you; leave them not to grow bitter
and wicked over oppression, but to grow mild`
and hopeful by kindness; make stringent,
but equitable police laws, bearing alike upon
White and black; enact a vagrant law, :thZtt
will keep alt out of vicious hllenegA.. And
with these no regulations as to -wages need be
made, but that matter may be safely trusted
to the balance of demand and supply. Above
all, leave them free to go where they will, so
they are not vagrants ; and in all your legisla._
tion,legWate for white and blade alike. Do
not wait till ruin is already upon you, nor
leave others to attempt a work so easy to you,
So impossible to them. Public sentiment is
More easily led in the Southern States than
anywhere else on earth, and if a few wealthy,
influential men, scattered here and there, will
begin to gather their slaves itrollrot them, and
quietly agitate for legal action, a Single year
may make certain all that is needed.
Remember, my countrymen, that interests
are now committed by Providence into Notir
hands, such as no other class of men on earth
ever had. The future of a whole race is pre
eminently in your keepir , ; and the future of
yourselves and your posterity is in the Sallie
balance, and must go up or down, as that peo
ple shall, under your guidance, conic to be
freemen indeed, or go back to be savages and
brutes.
In this erisis,may the wisdom of Omniscience
direct you, is the prayer of
Your friend and fellow-sufferer,

NEWMEs•ALLIc xttoys.—dcssrs. T. Thmlevie
and John Jones, of England, have patented a
metallic alloy, to be employed for the bear,
inKs of shafts or frictional surfaces in ma
chinery. The improvements consist in ;the
combination and use of spelter and block tin,
to which is added a small quantity of copper
and a small amount of antimony, and the
mode of combining the above in the melting
pot is as follows : First, take four ounces of
copper, melting or fusing it any Ordinary
trrtleible. When fused, add sixteen ounces
of blocli-tin and one ounce of antimony ;
when the whole are melted together, pour
the compolind out into a mould. Then melt
in a separate vessel 128 ounces of spelter,
together with ninety-six ounces of block tin,
and when both are fused, add the above ingot
of copper, tin, and antimony, and fuse alte
gether ; when properly fused in these propor
tins, or thereabouts,. the alloy is complete,
The chief fcaturcs of this alloy are of great
durability, and its low temperature when
under the heating luntuniee of friction.
For lining, bearing:s 2 journals, &C., the by,ar-
In is 10 b e tinned, m the ordinary inenusl r
with block tin and salamiiine. The improved
lining alloy is then gradually fusel, and the
hearing - 'heated, until it will fuse a solid strip
of the alloy. A heated shaft, Or mangril, is
then enclosed in the hearing anti and
the alloy peureil in - between the bearin g and
the shaft, remaining until It hardens ;the
bearing is then taken from the mountiined
with the alloy. . .
THE ATLANTIC CABLE.

ring the late severe weather, wiy be raised,
and under easy steam the mopoirous ve ssel,
with her ponderous freight, will he carefully
navigated through Dunooies channel to the
open water, and thence slake the hest of her
way to Valentia. It socans like mere iteration
to explain again an the almost endless precau
tions which have this occasion been taken
to secure succees. Ilull, engine, stowage; and
fittings of every kind have been carefully re
vised, whipped or Unproved. All that the ex
perience 0 previous attempts could suggest,
all that Ow most earnest and painstaking fore
sight could anticipate has been done ; every
thmgnow rests with the weather. In the four
grea t divisiOns on which the success of the un
dertsking may be said to turn—namely, the
ealqe itself, ts stev, age, the ship and its en,
encs, nothing apparently has been over
fooked. •
ELECTRICAL CONDITION OP THE CABLE
As reards the cable, it still remains m the
same perfect state its When it was tested at the
- works, and, in fact, its whole electrical
cendi
lion is such as the largest shareholder in the
undertaking would desire for it. Its various
lengths are now and have been for some days
past joined up, and twice every day, morning
and even ingonessages are sent through. The
time which these occupy in transmission
shows its condition to be as nearly invariable
as possible. Last week experhn cats were tried
with a variety of instruments to ascertain the
highest rate of working speed with a low hat-
I cry power. The best of these instruments
was, it is said, one invented by Mr. Varley,
with which it was found easy to work through
the whole length of two thousand live hundred
miles at an average rate or about four words
a minute. At this Speed the signals were re
markably clear and distinct, and it is still
claimed that it is possible to devise instru
ments which can raise the rate from four
- words a minute to as high as eight or even
ten. This, however, remains to he proved.
FOUR 'WORM THE 31INIMIT3I ICATI: OF Tnsisrs3ll9-
Yet, even in the absence of - such instru
ments, there can be no doubt but that the
gradually improving skill of the signalling
clerks, as they become more accustomed to
work through the wire, will, with he bettered
electric-al condition of the cable, when at the
bottom of the Atlantic, soon make four words
a minute the minimum of what can be accom
plished by this telegraph. The inaulatint ,
properties of the gutly pereha are always in
creased by external compression. When sunk
in the tremendous depths beneath which the
cable is to he submerged, it is calculated that
the weight of the water above it will give a
Pressure of about two and three-quarters ton
ro the circular inch. Under this enormous
weight the built of the immiating core wilt
probably be reduced one-third, and, in fact, so
compressed on all sides as to most materially
improve both"conductivity as and insulation.
Such aids to signalling excellence, when cou
pled with the benefit which the cable is cer
tain to derive from the unvarying temperature
at the bottom of the ocean, are likely to do
more towards increasing the rate at which
messages etlo be sent than any instrument
whiebluis yet been brought folarlird.
I=l=l7l
Daring the time of paying out signals will be
sent to Yalinutia for every "fifty miles of the
cable sunk, and for every fifty miles the Great
Eastern runs. TIM S, it will be perfectly easy
for the public to follow her course on any map,
and knew precisely by the difference between
the distance int:Versed and the length of ,rabie
sunk, the amount of stack that is being
_paid
out. Tliis slack, as it is called, will afford the
best index to the state of the weather, and the
way in which the Great Eastern is doing her
work. o less than thirty-three per cent. of
the entire length of the cable has been allowed
for slack, or waste, as we may better call it.
If all goes well not more than ton per ce.nt. of
this will be used : but on the other hand, with
bad weather or irregular going of the Great
- i:astern, every coil will go over the stern Co
the very last mile. So far nsregards the cable,
STOWAGE OP THE, GREAT EASTERN.
As Concerns the Great Eastern herself, Cap
tain Anderson and his officers have taken
every possible precaution as to her stowage
and general equipment. From outside she
seems at the fast glance to be almost alarm
ingly deep in the water. It is, however, less
her actual depth which creates this unplea-
Sallt, impression han the appearanee which
she presents of e sagging ff amidships. Of
course, this awkward and most unpleasant
appearance is merely an optical delusion, no
doubt created by her deep trim astern. There
is a difference of nearly live feet between her
trim fore and aft: Astern she draws thirty-
Ave feet of water, while under the bows
it IS only fhirty Levels have been care
fully taken to ascertain if any delleCtiOn
was perceptible under the ponderous
weight she bears. No si g n of change, how
ever, has been observable. Before any of the
cable was coiled on board one thousand four
hundred tons of water were pumped into the
aftermost compartments of the ship, and one
thousand one hundred tons into the COlllll2l rt
ments most forward. tinder these weights at
her extremities %the Great Eastern deflected
nearly an inch and a half, recovering herself
directly' the water was pumped oat. This
proof of strength is, of course, very satisfacto
ry. It would have been more so, however; if
the test strains employed bore a closer rela
tion to the enormous weights which she has
now on board. All told, the Great Eastern
will leave the Thames with rather more than
twenty-five thousand tons in her, a burden
almost as great as the whole fleet with which.
Nelson fought the battle of Trafalgar could
have carried.
CHANCES OF . A nom.
All the weights are stowed as high as pos
sible, to counteract to the utmost the Great
Ewtern , s most unpleasant tendencyto roll.
It is popularly supposed that this snip is al
most immovable in any sea. Atrainst a head
wind she is certainly very steacry, though she
can pitch as well as other vessels, and has, in
the Atlantic, aye, and even in the Channel,
Taken in heavy seas over her bows. IsteVerthe
less,. in a beam sea she is particularly "lively,"
and rolls just in proportion to her size—that
is to say, she rolls very much indeed. Her
motion is easy, slow and deep, occupying
abont.fifteen seconds. To make her do this, -
however, a beam sea of fifteen seconds inter
val between the waves is necessary, and such
a sea is rare even In the Atlantic. Of course,
all her system of stowage proeeeds. on the
theory that high-placed weights wilt prevent
her rolling. The Agamemnon was stowed.
after the same fashion on the occasion of, the
last Atlantic expedition, and our readers will
probably recollect that on that occasion the
great line-of-battle ship rolled as if she was
never coming up again.
ADMETING THE COMPASSES.
All the compasses nowon beard Were at first
considerably affected by the magnetic influ
ence of the cable. Some deviated as much as
thirty-two points, while others ' strange to say,
though almost similarly situated with regard
to the tanks of wire, varied as little as six.
Every one of them has now been carefully ad
justed; and every one will again need ad-
Justin( nt when the cable is out of the Great
Eastern at Nevvfoundland.
ABOVE pack.
. _
All the running gear has - bCCTI removed from
the lip ging, sO aS to obviate the possibility of
anything falling from aloft into the paying-out
machinery. Some of the yards have been
lowered, and scarcely a spar has sails. The
village of huts and workshops has disappeared
from her decks, hut their places have been
more than occupied by shanty coverings of
various Muds, leading troughs, buoy rope
wheels, gigantic buoys for floating tho cable at
various depths from six hundred to three thou
sand fathoms, and, above all, the whole space
of what in other vessels would be the quartet ,
deck is occupied by, the paying -out apparatus.
The praise which was at first bestowedupon
the simple efficiency of this machinery has
been amply vindicated by its every-day work
ing, As far as can be known from mere pre
liminary trials, it is absolutely perfect,
Both screw and paddle engines are reported
to be in very good condition. Every part of
each, of course, has been carefully overhauled
and examined. From the great depth of the
vessel it has been necessary to considerably
retitle°, or rather, reef in, the paddle floats.
One-third has been - taken off of each float, and
the two remaining thirds brought as close to
the inner ring its pdSsible. On the voyage
round to Valentia both screw and paddles win
be used, while during the submergence of the
cable the Great Eastern will depend mainly on
her screw. The paddles, however, will be kept
under steam, turning easily to save the screw
the labor of driving.; them as well as the ship.
This will be UM more necessary, as from the
position of one or tile cable coils over rwO of
the screw boilers it has been found necessary
to shut off the latter entirely from steam, thus
reducing the power of the screw engines about
one-liftli—namely, from 1 50c to 1.'240 horse
power. Another reason for the paddle en
gines lleing kept going is the assistance they
mar be - reouired to give iw keeping the vessel
on h dr courw, side wind*.
_
I , IMPARING FOR A
They will be also used to reverse the ship at
once in ease of any serious ‘.‘ kin It" occurring
in the cable tanks. The experience of sub
marine telegraphy- points always to one dan
ger—that of stopping the paying out simulta
neously with the stoppage of the vessel. The
very rapid downward course of the wire being
shaeniy arrested at its point of departure
over the paying-out wheel generally eauSeS
instant breakage of the repe—ac accident
which is always as sudden as it is irremedia
ble. In case of any stoppage being necessary,
therefore, the Great Eastern will be at once
reversed, so as to back her slowly over the
line where the cable lie., until it hangs almost
vertically from the stern. During the time
the Great Eastern has been anchored at the
Nore, the swell, and especially within the last
few (-WO, has often been so great as to prevent
the Service tugs from Sheerness enminn.along
side. On some olayS, indac4, the sea has run
very high, yet always without making..-the
slightest impression on the big ship winch;
from first to lasi, has remained as abolutely
immovable as if she were aground.

turned in a small boat. and landed at Allays
Point, fool of Filly-fifth street. and entered
the public house, where they partook of re
freshments. Another hottldond of men from

Prebident of the United Srateg
He then, in behalf of the defendant, nored
a discontinuance of the trial, on the gronnd
that, under the provisions of the above order,
the local court bad no juristi ieticia in the ease.
The court would not admit the point, and or
dered the trial to proceed. The officer then
stated that the chief of his bureau in the War
Department, under whom he acted, did not ae
know ledge the right of the court to try the
case, and that, therefore, the defendant would
not answer the summons of the court. Pro
ceeding with the trial, the statement of the
plaintiff was the only testimony taken, and on
that,.in default of the appearance of defend
ant, Judgment was given against the latter to
the full amount alleged, with cost, and an exe
cution issued for the seizure of the property
of the colored man to cover the amount. The
civil officer having this in charge was prompt
ly notified by the Superintendent of Freed
Udell that a military guard would be called for
to prevent the execution of the jedgment, and
the case was reported to Major Gen, Howard.
General Howard addressed a note to the Mayor
of Alexandria, intended to be presented to the
Justice of the Pence, in which occurs this pas
sage:
It. is plain to see that the old slave law of
Virginia should have no force after shivery has
been abolished, and that simple justice and
equity require the reception of testimony
from freedmen; hat as the courts Of Alexandria
have decided differently, and the matter of
jurisdiction is somewhat in conflict between
local and United States authorities, and since
1 have a strong desire not to appeal to force,
I have to earnestly request that you transfer
cases arising between colored and white per
sons, and between colored persons themselves,
to the jurisdiction of the provost courts, or
the courts established in accordance with
paragraph 7 of circular No. 5, a certified copy
of which I here acith inclose." -
The Mayor of Alexandria refused to receive
this leiter, and on its return, General Howard
referred the matter to General Augur, Com
mandant of the :Department of Washington.
In this letter of reference General lloward
says:
Mayor Ware treats my comnignication with
mailed disrespect, and deeline to recognize
me, though acting under direct order of the
President, as having anything to do with se
curing justice to freedmen according to the
law. lie refuses even to give me an answer in
writing. I understand that the justices in the
Alexandria local courts agree with the Mayor
in this singular procedure,. .Irecommend that
this matter may be again brought before the
Mayor and justices of Alexandria through
your Intervention. As these courts confessed

effected an arrangement whereby ail Cases
that may hereafter arise, and until further or

A Ram ao.ao 1t0k.,,ee.--A young lieutenant
had apparently succeeded in making himself
excedingly agreeable to a married lady, ac
eompamed by her little daughter. By and by
the train apprOachod the tunnel at Muhl rough
hill. The gay and festive lieutenant leaned
over and whispered the lady's ear. It
was noticed that she appeared thunder
struck, and her eyes immediately after
named with indignation. A moment more,
and a smile, lighted lip her feat urea. What
ehangesl That smile, it was not of plea
sure,- but was sinister. It was unperceived
by the lieutenant. She made him a reply
which rejoiced him apparently very much.
For the understanding properly of the narra
tive—this o'er true tale—we must tell the
reader what was whispered and what was re
pled. Whispered the lieutenant, " i mean to
kiss you when we get into the tunnel!" Replied
the lady, "it will be dark—who will see it?"
Into earthYs bowels—into the tunnel—ran the
cars. Lady and colored nurse quietly changed
seats. Gay lieutenant threw MS arms around
the lady sable, pressed her cheek to his and
fast and furious rained kisses on her lips. In
a few moments the train came into the broad
daylight ; white lady looked amazed, colored
lady bashful, blushing ; gay lieutenant befog
ged. "Jane" said the white lady, " what have
you been doing?" Responded colored lady,
nothing 1" "lea, you have," said the white
lady, not In under tone, but in a voice that at
tracted the attention of all in the ear; "see
how your collar is rumpled and your bonnet
mashed." Jane, poor colored beauty, hung
her head a moment, the "observed of all ob
servers," and then turning around to the lieu
tenant, replied, "this man hugged and kissed
me in the tunnel !" Loud and long was the
laugh that followed among the pas.sengers.
The white lady enjoyed the joke amazing-ty.
Lieutenant looked like a sheep-stealing dog,
left the car, and was seen no more during the
trip.—Washrine Union.
A 1-1101-11. AND :.:•:110WER.—Under a bri ,, ht sun
and a cloudless sky you suddenly cater]. some
thing like a thud on the hat. Startled, and
looking upwards, some half-dozen tumblertuls
of water come Splash Oa your RM. There
scents to be no cause for this, except that the
hills seem to be covered with tinfoil, and the
sun looks a little hazy, and to be leering at
you—but this only for an instant—while you
are at the edge of the cloud; suddenly all be
comes dark as an eclipse, while the tumbler
fuls rattle down in millions. After a couple of
minutes the whole stops suddenly, as with a
jerk, or as if the grandmother of all buckets,
as the Persians would say, had been emptied.
When you come to your senses, yon See the
cloud careering airily like, ii black curtain,
lifting its skirt over mountain after mountain,
and revealing thorn to the sun, while stretch
ing over its 'WOK is a double rainbow—not
hazy and translucent like common specimens,
but all clear, as if painted on a black board,
though with colors so bright as to cat out any
ever laid on by the hand of man.
On your own side everything glitters in the
Sun as if millions of diamom Ls had beenstrown
about, and over multifarious clattering brooks
tiny irises caper away in all their finery like
distracted fairies. From the steep birches in
the hollows, and the fields of hog-myrtle, the
hot sun pours out and dispenses a fragrance
to which the odors of all the cosmetics of the
perfumers' shops are what the Dutch call
them—stinks. You have been so completely
anima as ii' you had been dipped under
Foyers; but the Sensation is worth paying for,
and you may have refreshing recollections of
it when traversing seine shingly plutonic vine
district, or dry, sandy plain of France or Ger
many.
SENOR GONZALES 'BRAVO, Os SSAIN.—SenOE
GOIiZELICS DESVO ex-Minister of the interior in
Spain, has been tile object of a demon:sty/Mon
which might have had very - serious conse
quences. At the laSt 110 occupied a
seat in the front row of a box next to that of
the President. Ile was not seen at first, but as
soon as his presence was discovered the twelve
thousand people who tilled the circus rose in
dignantly, gesticulating and crying out " Out!
Ont.! Death to the assassin of the night of the
10th.;' At thi3 Same Melhent a number of men
tried to climb up to the box by means of the
pillars which divided it from the inferior part
of the 'house. The ex-Minister did not take
any notice of this at first, but he speedily saw
the danger of his position, and deemed. it pro
dent to go out. Ills dig,ht was covered by his
friends, and even by some of his political op
ponents; and the correspondent of the Inde
pendence, in relating the circumstance, adds
that the irritation of all parties in the circus
was so great that had he had not taken todight
in time his life would probably have paid the
penalty of his curiostv.
Sots time since two men entered a cafd
in iltouthe, Douhs, France, kept by a man
named Cain!, and after knocking and calling
repeatedly without any one appearing they
looked into the kitchen, tiliCt were horror
struck to see M. Guyon, a resnient of the town,
lying dead on the floor with -a gunshot
through his breast. They immediately gave
information to the h
. gendarmerie, wo, on
searchin L; the house, tound Catal, the proprie
tor, concealed in a closet on the first lloor.
Cala! at come admitted that the fatal shot, had
been tired by himself. lie said that . after ho
and his friend Guyon had been drinking to
gm her till a late hour, a discussion arose he
twocii them as to some partieular mode of
using :t gnu ; that lie (Catal) then fetehod his
gun. and that, after Ceti] of them had in suc
cession gone through the mameuvres in ones
tinn, tinyon et:Oa - mica, " I ittn not afraid of
death; place your gun here (laying his hand
against his heart) and : you trill see
'win not shrink." Catal obekeil this strange
order, and killed his friend on the .s:p?t. The
general belief is that Catal , s sta Ps , is i rue, and
that be and his friend both drank till they
knew not what they did. Catal has been com
mitted to prison.
