In the hey day of the cavaliers, he would have been better known, hut not I>etter loved, than lie was among us. His was a peaceful life in all respects, save one. In him the ideal and the gross, or more correctly, the spiritual and the practical, were ever at war. But it was a war of the elements, not of anger; and it is gratifying to know that the voice whose music was like oil on rocking (fa!- lilee, has at last quieted the tempest in him with its sweet hut of for- '. hieh is ice like such his will havt ci ane and n THAT MUItllKU IX UHUROll. The recent murder of John Steedlv, near Midway, S. 0., by Miss Kmma Connolly, is one of the most remarkable homicides on record in any age or coun try. The deliberation, the place, and the circumstances all combine to throw around the entire event a black ring of blood and horror. Steedlv boasted that he had betrayed Miss Connolly, and had been eoivhided hy her brother and a friend. He doubtless deemed himself personally safe after this disgrace. But he was inconsiderate enough to reiterate the statement in print. On July -It 1 i Steedlv attended church at Hunter’s chapel, near Midway. Soon after taking his seat Miss Connolly entered and took a seat directly behind him. She then drew a revolver, and placing it to the hack of her victim’s head, fired. His brains sputtered the pew and tlie floor of tlie sacred edifice. Women screamed and fainted and tlie congregation dis persed in con fusion. The fact that this deed was done hy a “young lady,” together with the sur rounding circumstances, has attracted to it more than the usual interest; and it does not require the philosophy that can hear voices in the stones to extract from it those lessons which are not hut should lie prized above the morbid interest the event awakens. A man who will betray the secret con fidence of a woman who lias been his co partner in guilt may not he more of a criminal, hut lie is less of a man. Stolen waters are sweet, but there is honor even among thieves. In this case it was not the secret sin,lint the boastful and treach erous betrayal of it that cost Steedlv his life. This tragedy also verifies anew a fact which is as old as the race of man, and whose only novelty is found in the vari ous incidents which illustrate it—the fact that crimes against society, like crimes against tlie statutes, are only hidden to lie revealed. The inspired w riter knew this when he said in his message to the age.-. "Be sure your sin will find you ollt." Kven the critical student of human nature, w bet her he he humanitarian or misanthropist, might pause and study this tragedy with profit. This young woman must have been su premely desperate to thus cul minate her harvest of the whirlwind. >lu was im doubt tender and tearful like other women. She went in good society. Bloodshed wits foreign to every instinct of her nature. What transformed a weak girl into a fiend'.’ What nerved her to leap into this acme of diabolism The sei ret is plain and it ought to lie a warning toothers. She prized her repu tation above her character. Her reputa tion she ('sibilated a bin e position, liberty, and even life itself. Without character she was content to live. Without reputation 'he became maddened and craziB cast away her last hope for the future and tlie fruitions of life. But what is the moral of Miss Connelly’s ca reer which is now closed, unless one can have a career behind prison hill's? It is 'his. that a fallen woman is worse than a tallen man. A female thief, a female de- hauehe, or a female desperado is im measurably worse than a male in the same predicament. A man may fall and rise and retrieve. But a woman goes down to dishonor like Lucifer went to the pit—bv a returnless route. When a woman once turns her hack upon God and virtue, she reserves nothing; and for her there is nothing reserved, save "tlu* blackness of darkness forever.” When a woman's honor has been buried, there is no man. nor no angel, strong enough to roll away the stone from tlu* sepulchre. Above it must be written the awful epitaph, “Xo resur- error as its name is misleading in poli tics. To start with, there will not he two democratic nominees in tlie field, even if Ur. Felton is put up against (ion. Gordon. If, ns the Globe-Democrat assumes, the republicans select a candidate there is no reason w hy they should not center upon Ur. Felton, as lie lias publicly announced that he will not support (ten. Gordon. Kilt, presmning that there are two dem- cratie candidates, or half a dozen if it suits better, there would then he no , chance to elect a republican governor, in this state. The figures used above show ! that tlie democratic majority is 1 In order to secure an election the candi date must secure a majority of the entire vote cast. In article 5 section 1 of 1 lie constitution of Georgia this language ap- ' pears : “Par. V. The members of each branch of the general assembly shall convene in the repre sentative hall, and the president of the senate and the speaker of the house of representatives > shall open and publish the returns in the pres- I ence and under tlie direction of the general as- 1 sembly; and the person having a majoiity of tlie j whole number of votes shill! be declared duly j elected govei nor of this state; hut, if no person j shall have such a majority, therefrom the two I persons having the highest number of votes, who j shall lie in life, and shall not decline an election at the fine appointed for the general assembly lo elect, the general assembly shall, immediately, elect a governor viva voee; and in all cases of eleetion of a governor by the general assembly a majoi ity of the members present shall be neces sary to a choice." It will thus be seen that the framers of the constitution have very prudently provided against the imposition of a gov ernor who is not selected by a majority I of the voters of the state, and at the same time throws a mantle of safety over tlie democrats while they engage in their little family disturbances. The Globe- Democrat need not congratulate itself that we are soon to have a republican governor in Georgia. Notwithstanding this fact, every democrat ought to cheer fully abide the nomiirtition of the state convention and give a rousing majority in the (letober election. sssssssssssss S P o r Fifty Years the great Remedy for S S Blood Poison and Skin Diseases.
