Climb on to the rear, every man of you.” They obeyed jiim like wire-worked manikins, aud soon the rear portion of the coach was packed with' twenty-four specimens of the ivory-ebony •the erosstie tourist—who had stopped for an hour to sample cold victuals and size up the town. Sheriff Bellamy and his deputy ushered in the prisoners just as Judge E. H. Glenn took his seat on the bench. The Carden boys were accompa- angels whose brawn is building the Georgia nied their father and mother and by Midland. They all went to the rear but one.

It appeared to be a small burden, it is true, but it was big enough to cover his mind all up and then hang out over the edges. They called the solemn negro Jake. Jake stood shivering on the front platform, and speetively. The Carden family grouped themselves about the fireplace on the north side of the court house, and the father, mother and four sons, all wore a dejected and hunted look. Old Mr. Carden’s long, iron-grey beard drooped in grisly folds upon his chest, and every now and then a Vesuviausigh would I bisa - ve f a ***** co ” ata " t |y fro, “ the ?°° r to the face of his eldest born who sat be- shoot up from under his shirt bosom like a stone from a catapult.

But lhe most startling piece of beavered lawyer to the vermined tramp I evidence ot all, I heard to-day. It was given to me by one of the most prominent men in Russell county, but he would give it to me only after I had pledged him my word that I would not publish it. It will come out at the trial, and it will be a regular bombshell when it does come. I cannot even say whether this evidence will be for or against the prisoners. But my word for it, there will be music in the air for one side or the other when this witness kisses the holy book. One of the witnesses for the defence is a “nice” young man named John Wright. Mr. Wright is the young man, who, it is said, sometime ago announced his willing ness to swear that he heard the Carden boys confess the murder, and who subse quently decided that he didn’t hear any such thing, and then became a prominent witness for the defence. Mr. Wright re fused to answer any question I asked him when I was here before. He said he had no information for me. 1 will be kinder to him than he was to me. I have some information for him. It will doubtless surprise him to get it through the En quirer-Sun. It is that a few days ago a MAItKKTft BY TELEOBAPH. Fiiinnclnl.
