A/LVAPoLis, June 9,
Contrary to the expectations of all,
Nicholson was not brought into court for
sentence this morning, but will be senten
ced to-morrow, Tuesday morning, at 9
clock. The record will be sent immedi
ately to the Governor, and the time of ex
ecution fixed, most probably, will be the
Ist of August, so that Nicholson and 1101-
lohau will expiate their crime together.
Nicholson's wife has been here nice
Saturday. and will remain in Annapolis
until her husband is removed to Ball he ore.
She has frequently visited the condemned
man in company with the ,jailor.
His wife is in great distress, and seems
to be almost entirely overcome by her great
grief. Her interviews are most affecting,
Nicholson has expressed a desire to see
his children, which has not yet been ,grat

ifi'One of the worst things done a-
.:;:;. , ong the many bad things perpetrated by
~' the disreputable 424 Congress was the un

,ztracted that the city publisher can send
his paper (worthlessly made up'in many

sand miles at the same cost of postage that
a country publisher eau send his paper

t e Lebanou Courier, is something that

A GREAT HORROR DONE AWAY WITiL
- - Honse cleaning is a great horror to nine
men - out of ten. When that time comes
the "men folks," as a rule, give the do.
meitle hearth a "wide berth." Oceans of
Buds—the product of tons of soap—fair.
ly flood every part of the house. The
women, from the mistress down, labor as
they never worked before, and what with
the discomfort, the smell of suds and the
dampness, and not uufrequently sickness,
the product of colds and overwork, mat
ter& are generally disagreeable. The sim
ple use of Sapolio instead of soap does a
way with all this discomfort, It lightens
the labor a hundred Per cent„ because.it
I.:moves dirt, grease, stains and spots,' with
hardly any labor, with but a little water,
and in one tenth the usual time,
officers of the State, including
.county officers, according to au amend,
ment just adopted by the Constitutional
Convention, are to have fixed regular sal,.
aries, to which no fees or other emolu
ments are to be attached. This will en,
tire]y do away with the fee bill a 'reform
which will effect more purification in pol
itics, than any other measure which could
be possibly adopted. It is the corruption
entailed by the fee bill all over the State
which pollutes politics and makes knaves
of men in public life, so that if this is a
bolished, and a. system of regular salaries
substituted, and these salaries kept within .
reasonable commercial .bounds, we will
get more faithful service, and less degra
ded pprtizan rivalry thawthat which now
makes so much official business a bungle
and contests at the polls a piece of black
uardism.—Sfate Journal.

pbndent at BoYle'inndeidate 4thinstaift
kluid au interview with Captain
Jack, through the medium of au interpre
ter.' At firsthe was reticent; in 'fact, be
did not even notice me. Finally, his sis
ter nary prevailed on him to talk. His
first remark was in relatiOn to. his shack.
lea, He said it made hint feel mean to
be bobbled like a horse. He was not a
fraid to die, and had no idea of running
away,. As bespoke his eyes snapped, and
be looked a very lion in rage. All ques
gone pertaining to his fighting he decline
ed to =ewer. When .I asked him his age
be gave. me to understand that he was 38,
and he then voluntarily started upon a
statement of his grievances and those of'
his people with reference to the Bea:
Wright affray. He, said that the white
men murdered his people years ago, and
that what he had done was only in pay
ment of cid debts, He did not enter into
details. but left the interpreter (Scarfaced
Charley) to patch up the story.
A critical study of' Jack's face corro
borates the impression derived At first sight
He is a thorough Indian, His head is
large, quite square, and sets firmly on his
shoulders, his eyes are black and bright,
and his face broad, with prominent cheek
bones. His nose is'symmetrical and slight
ly aquiline; his lips thin and clean cut,
and combined with his chin, indicate that
resolution of purpose that has won such
notoriety. His complexion is dark, and
his face has a pleasant. look. Take him
all in all, he is .a striking man, Place
him amon,g thousands and he would be
takeerfor a Chief by any observing stran
ger.
Those who have seen him, do not won
der that he is leader of the Modoes. Tho'
in chains, .and.on the brink of eternity,
he is yet feared and respected by the In
dians about him ,
Elistlearest companion in chains, Schott
chin. is about 50 years of age, is wrinkled,
and has f'villain" depicted in every line
-ef-his-face,—He-wears_hishair_short,_and
stands about five feet in his moccasins.—
,Boston Charlie is abOut twenty-five years
old. His face is expressiouleas. Jack
would attempt to escape if he bad a chance,
even at the risk of being shot down: Prob
ably he never realized that his death was
inevitable until the irons were placed on
his feet. '
ScaTfaced Charlie says Jack told him
he could get clear when the white men
Were asleep. This was before the irons
were brought into use. General Davis is
satisfied .that Jack did try to esc ap e
last night, and through the aid of confed
erates on the outside, for upon examina
tion of his shackles this morning, it was
found that one of the rivits had been
fil
ed nearly in two. His legs only are con

MURDERED RE HIS SON.—On the 3d

shot and killed his father, Mansfield T.
Walworth, in the Sturtevant house, at
New York. The deceased was an author

did not live with his family, and domes

Young Walworth, who lives at Saratoga,
directly after the shooting went to the po

The following is the prisoner's story as
told to the coroner in answer to questions
put by the gentleman
I resided with my mother in Saratoga,
my father having parted from her some
years ago. My father is an author, and I
have been studying law. I think my filth

know where he was born. My father hat,
not lived with my mother since we left
three years ago, but he has repeatedly
sent us threatening and insulting letters.
Only a short time since he threatened to
shoot my mother and myself. I shoot him
because of this.
'Not long ago I met him Tithe street in
Saratoga, and then told him ifhe did not
keep away from us, or insulted my mother
any more I would shoot him. 1 told him
there were bounds which I would not al
low any man to go beyond with impunity,
especially when my mother was being in
sulted.

There is a limit given to everything.—
A Man must make it his point in life to
learn.what that limit is. He must again
avoid opposite extremes. Man's ,experi
enc4s his best.teaeher. . It sometimes re
proves him in a manner not agreeable to
his views: Men teach men how far they
can interfere in another's business. This
occurs quite frequently and leaves bad re
sults. It consists in fractured limbs, in
sanguinary dog-fights, and 'results finally
by a decision of justice. A man must
strictly attend to hie own business, and
that will not effect more than a legal in
terference in the affairs of others. Eve
ry man has' his station in life ; a particu
lar work given to that station, beyond
which he has no business to interfere.—
Business men generally remain within
.bounds, but we are infested with a large
class of people who interfere in anything
that comes before thein. You know their
reputation. How often •are they , sneered
at, condemned by the public, and some
times booted like a poodle-dog. Will not
such people soon learn the right for them
to interfere in the affairs of others 2:There
are young men and young ladies,d men
and old women, to-411'y in Nays boro',
who are Inwily engaged in meddli : with
ci g
!Aber peoples' work. When they 4unnot
make trouble come fast enough with truth,
they pollute their lips with lies. They
tread upon others rights, and mar the
happiness of their -fellow beings. They
spurn the man of truth and right. They
are sorely grieved (let on to be) when re
proved of their misdemeanor. To all
such let me say. examine your path, and
if there be a knot untied in the line which
marks your proper course, you have a
voice continually speaking to you, and
saying, mend your own string. Shame on
the man or woman who will forget their
own business and meddle with that of oth
ers. They receive nothing for their com
pensation but the disgust and reproach of
their community. Poor pay, indeed.—
And Ow considering well your mission
in life, will such, to whom we have refer
ence, continue in this impropriety ? Think
of the position you fill in life ; think of
yourself as a responsible being, think of
thwelfare of your neighbors and friends,
re ember the Eleventli . commandment
i
an mind your own business.

COUGHS AND COLDS.—Theie are few
persons aware of the importance Of attend
ing to a cough or cold at its first appearance.
The thousands who die annually of con
smnption,•were first attacked with a "slight"
cough or cold, which they thought _would ,
soon "wear" itself off, and therefore neglec
ted to use the proper remedies until they .
became incurable. ,
Every day that a cough, cold or any lung
disease is neglected, makes the chances of
a cure more uncertain. We would recom—
mend all suffering from disease of the Lungs
whatever to use HASSON'S COMPOUND,
SYRUP OF TAR. It never fails in curing
the worst cases of coughs, colds, hoaseness,
sore throat, catarrh and asthma. It is an,
infallible remedy for Hooping Cough. Be,
ing prescribed by some of the leading phy-.
sicians in the Northern and Southern States
and being prepared under the immediate
supervision of a graduate of the Penniylva,
nia Medical College. The proprietors beg
leave to inform all that it is no "Quack' ,
preparation, but made strickly in accord
ance with the advanced principles and the
ory of medicine.
Price 50 cents per bottle.
Sold by all Druggists and Dealers through
out the United States.
P. S. See that the signature of RUSSELL
