Geib, who was paseenger on the Fashion, thinks there were from three hundred* and fifty to four hundred black and while passengers on her at the time of the fire. of whom there were not more than *eighty survivors. There were about one hundred in the cabin, and the feet were negroes coming to the city on a holi day excursion, hardly knowing what for. When the flames began to sweep ,toward them they plunged wildly into the wah r, and there was no possibility of rescni"g them. The twenty-seven hundred bales of cotton were piled up eight tiers high, and it was difficult to move about on the boat ' without coming in contact with the flain‘p.

The criminal way a depraved,' desperate wretch, who' bad been indicted for a bru tal and .atrocious murder. The fellow was greatly hardened, and seemed to.care but little how the trial - resulted. The evi dence was strong against him ; end when the cue was submitted to the jury. they returned a verdict of 'Guilty,' without leaving their seats. The execution was fixed for a certain day, two weeks after the trial. Of *course, it was my duty. as Sheriff, to put the rope around the fellow's neck and launch him into eternity. It was a distasteful duty I assure you: for, though I knew full well the man deserved his death, I did nnt rel ish the idea of hanging him. I got through with it, however, and sent him dancing , on air. He did not struggle much, and I thought be had an easy death. After hanging the usual time, and being pronounced dead, he was cut down, and his body given to his friends for in terment. I thought I bad seen the last of the man, as the wagon containing the body drove cut of the JO yard : but I was mistaken. About four months aftertbe execution, T happened to' be passing my b barn, when I saw a man pitting in the doorway, with his bead resting on his bands. I did not like his look. so I approached and asked him what he wanted there.
