I’HE GOVKUNOR FORMALLY ANNOVN-
CKS HIS DKTKRMINATION.
GKNKUAL LAWTON’S LKTTKR.
General Lawton’s letter to the Gov
ernor is as follows:
Savannah, Ga.. March C, 1S8G.- My
Dear Sir: The inquiry is often made
whether your name will come before
the people of Georgia at the next elec
tion for Governor, or liefore the con
vention, which will meet soouer, to
nominate a candidate. Perhaps tliis
inquiry is more frequently addressed
to me, because a portion of the press
of the State has made reference to my
views as to your eligibility under the
constitution to another re-election.
My impressions on this branch of
the subject were alluded to hy me
last July, at Athens, where we met as
trustees of the State University. The
conversation was interrupted, and
therefore incomplete; and 1 have had
no interview with you since on the
subject. 1 now r dismiss it with the re
mark that my impressions remain the
same as were then intimated to you—
that the constitution interposes no
obstacle to your re-election in Octo
ber next, for another term as Govern
or of Georgia.
You entered upon the duties of the
highest office in the gift of the peo
ple of Georgia at a somewhat critical
moment; especially as regards the
financial affairs of the State. And
our people cannot fail to discover
that you have, by your foresight,
judgment, firmness and skill in affairs
rendered most valuable and distin
guished services. I need only refer
to tlie manner in which you have
dealt with the complications which
grew out of the failure of several of
the State depositories—to the final
settlement with the purchasers of the
Macon aud Brunswick railroad, to the
first and most important steps toward
the erection of a new State capitol—
and more than all to snclt provision
made for anticipating the maturity of
many millions of State bonds during
the present year, as to place the finan
cial condition of our commonwealth
upon the most elevated plane of State
credit. For all this you must surely
receive the “well done’" of the people
of Georgia.
1 do not venture to estimate the
relative weight of the considerations
which may press for retirement from,
or further service in, the high office,
but content myself with the simple
inquiry as to your intentions and
wishes in the premises, should you
feel at liberty to make them known.
To prevent any possible misappre
hension on the part of others, in con
nection with this inquiry, I takeleave
to add that I have no personal inter
est whatever in the next nomination
or election for Governor of Georgia.
With high personal regard, I am yours
very truly, A. R. Lawton.
Hon. Henry D. McDaniel,
Atlanta, Go.
GOVERNOR M DANIEL’S REPLY.
Governor McDaniel replied to the
letter of General Lawton as follows:
Atlanta, Ga., March 13, 1886.—
Hon. A. R. Lawton, Savannah, Ga.:
My Dear Sir—Your letter .in reference
to my attitude in the approaching
election for Governor has been re
ceived. Tlie same inquiry has been
frequently addressed to me within
tlie j>ast few jiionths, hy other friends
in whe#e character and judgment the
peoplb have manifested "confidence.
Respect for them and for my oblige
lions to the public forbade a hasty or
premature consideration of the sub
ject.
The approach of the time for the
executive committee of the Democratic
party to prepare for the nomination
of candidates for the various State
offices, asjwell as the increasing urgen
cy of friendly inquiries, have induced
me to carefully consider the question
and decide it so far as it may effect
my course. •
Elected to complete the term of the
distinguished statesman, Alexander
H. Stephens, 1 entered upon his un
finished duties with natural distrust
of my fitness. My endeavors to pro
mote the public welfare by a faithful
administration of the State govern
ment were rewarded by unanimous
re-election, without a competitor for
the nomination of the party or for
the suffrages of the people at the
polls. There has been no abatement
of my zeal in the performance of du
ty. and no considerable portion of the
people during the present term have
manifested disapproval of my admin
istration. None of my official acts,
no policy recommended by me and
adopted by the Legislature, no meas
ure originated by the legislature and
sanctioned by me, have met general
criticism as unwise and hurtful to the
commonwealth.
The unwritten law of American
politics that an executive should serve
but two successive terms has been em
bodied in our state constitution. It
is true that part of a term and a full
term following do not constitute two
successive terms. There is little rea
son to doubt that the people have
the legal right to keep a Governor
longer in office where he was entrust
ed with duties affected by the policy
and interrupted by the death of his
predecessor. But he should not ask
re-election, unless there were pending
some great political question which
divided4he people, and in which he
was the natural represenative of his
party, or unless there had been such
arraignment of his administration
that an appeal to the people was
necessary. There being no necessity
for further indorsement of my ad
ministration, and no public question to
render my candidacy a matter of duty
tojhedemocratic party, I am unwilling
merely for the purpose of remaining
in office another term, to become a
candidate for re-election.
I shall be content, and feel myself
deeply indebted to the people of Geor
gia. if having met their just expecta
tions in the i»ast 1 shall complete to
their satisfaction the duties which I
have been called to discharge. Tn
that event, I will without regret
retire from office and resume the du
ties of a private citizen, which in a
free country are not less useful and
honorab e, if less conepiouous, than
those of the highe6t public official.
Permit me to thank you for the
complimentary allusions to my ser
vices. It has been my endeavor to
merit the approbation of thoughtful
and conservative citizens, and there is
no better representative of that class
than yourself. My knowledge of you
induces the belief, that notwithstand
ing the friendship long existing be
tween us; you would not express such
sentiments, lf you were not satisfied of
their correctness.
Sincerely yours,
Henry D. McDaniel.

Ilearst, editor of the ijan Francisco
Examiner.
The Senatorial debate has been go
ing on steadily with crowded galleries.
After the Vermont Senator's celebra
ted speech Senator Pugh of Alabama,
led the Democratic assault on the Ed
munds position. Mr. Pugh is a law
yer of fine abilities and he made a
strong legal reply to the Vermonter’s
assumption. Some of his points were
verv effective, one of the first showing
a flaw in the Edmund’s argument.
Mr. Edurarlds claimed that Duskin,
the official, who waB suspended by the
Attorney General, was still a suspend
ed official, anil that, therefore, informa
tion concerning his suspension was a
proper matter for the Senate's con
sideration. Mi Pugh showed that the -hatchet had been dug
term of office, to which Duskin had "for-the good people of the village to
been appointed, had expired last Jan
uary, before the Senate Judiciary
committee had sought to obtain its in
formation through Mr. Edmonds.
Then Mr. Kenna, the youngest
man in the Senate, spoke from a Dem
ocratic point of view. In the West
Virginian, Senator Edmunds met an
adversary entirely worthy of him in
tlie unworthy cause to which he is
now ilevoting his energies.
Tlie effect of Mr. Kennan's speech
was to show that the Republican Sen
ators who claim to be standing on
such high moral ground in this con
troversy have been actuated by parti
san feelings alone. He made many
telling hits at Senators Edmunds,
Sherman, and Logan, quoting them
against their present position, as
when, for instance, he read the fac
simile of a letter written by Sherman,
then Secretary of the Treasury, in
which he (Sherman) refused to furnish
at the Senate’s reqaest, papers of a
confidential character filed in the De
partment. Mr Sherman said, in the
same letter, that no law required the
President to give reasons for remov
als from office.
He read an extract from Mr. Blaine's
book that was received with bursts
of laughter. It was where the Maine
historian stated that the Tennre-of-
Office law was enacted lest President
Johnson should remove Republican
office holders too rapidly, and it was
afterwards practically repealed lest
President Grant should not remove
Democratic office holders rapidly
enough.
Mr. Kenna was merciless in his
criticisms of the leader of the present
controversy, and while the audience
was listening attentively to the speak
er it was also watching Mr. Edmunds’
face. During this scoring the latter
resort ed to his old habit of pretending
to be absorbed'in a book which was
opened before him. It was noticed,
however, that he did not turn a leaf
during the long reading of another
choice extract from Mr. Blaine’s book
which showed that Mr. Edmunds had
contradicted himself upon the right of
the President to remove without giv
ing any reason for it. When the
young Senator closed with the pre
diction that Grover Cleveland would
hand down to his successor the pre
rogatives of his office undiminished, he
was surrounded by a throng of Sena
tors and Congressmen who had cope
over from the House to hear hip.
They showered congratulations upon
him and shook both of his hands
until his arms ached.

“Murder! Murder! Murder!” The
first cry loud and clear, like that of a
_ The second erv fainter, hoarser; the
last fainter still with a ring of despair
It was such a lovely summer night;
warm, but with a cool breeze coming
down from the mountains, fragrant
and delightful, as though it had lin
gered among the waterfalls of the
hills and perfumed flowers. The
mountains, * solemn and grand, rose
with their rugged peaks far into the
clouds. The hills like a green belt
nestled far below, and the beautiful
valley looked like a carpet of green
when the sun shone upon it, and the
silver streams winding through it. A
little village lay at the very foot of
the green hills. The white bouses
could be seeu in the moonlight. At a
short distance from tbe village, upon
a gentle slope, was a picketted fort,
the monument of past Indian war
fare, aud still occupied by troops.
The pipe of peace lead been smoked,
aud the liatcliet buried, but the
hatchet had been dug up too often
feel secure, and they felt more com
fortable when they knew that strong
arms and brave hearts were ready for
any moment of danger. On the. out
side of the picketted fort were the of
ficers' homes, quaint, pretty cottages,
only separated from each other by
low paling fences. Outside stood the
bakery aud post trader's store. In
side the fort were barracks, hospital,
arsenal, anti parade ground, also
homes for the officers, but they were
only used when the Indians were hos
tile. There was one other building
belonging to the fort, a little cottage
some distance down the hill. It was
almost hidden in a grove of trees,
which gave it, together with its dingy
color, a dreary look. It was called
tlie Hlate House, on account of its col
or—a dark drab. This house was not
often occupied. Even out in the far
west life had its little romances, and
alas! its tragedies. Wild, lawless na
tures had made, out in these wilds, a
refuge for themselves from former sins,
and a Nemesis when they least expect-
ed it. ‘
“Murder! Murder! Murder!”
Captain Langdon had just buckled
on hi’ sword to go upon his rounds as
officer of the day, when this shrill
wild cry fell upon his ears. Nothing
is so dreadful in the silence of night as
the awful cry of murder; it will blanch
the bravest cheeks.
So it was with much trepidation
Captain Langdon with hasty steps
passed out of the house. He found
many of the officers on their front pi
azzas in their night apparel. “Whose
voice was it, from whence did it come?’
more than one cried. ‘I will see, 1
said Captain Langdon as he quickly
entered the fort ami summoned the
guard. “Did you hear the cry of
murder just now?” said the Captain
addressing an old Sergeant. “Yes,
sir,” said tlie soldier, “and I think it
came from the Slate House, down the
hill.” “To the Slate House we will
go,” said tlie Captain, “for I too
thought the cry came from thei*e.
“I cannot imagine who it can be, as
the house is unoccupied,” continued
the Captain. So to tlie Slate House
they marched with a half feeling of
alarm that perhaps the Indians were
again on the war path, and had mur
dered some one down the hill. As
thev approached the house, every
thing around appeared dark and
silent, and not a sound fell upon their
ears. Captain Langdon -with a l>art
of the guard passed through the front
of the house while the other soldiers
went into the backyard. In a front
room various articles of furniture
were scattered about. The house had
evidently very recently been occupied.
Captain Langdon said to the Sergeant
“Some one lias been living here.”
He found the soldiers in the back
yard, looking at something on the
steps of a little porch leading into the
vard. “There in a dark stain on the
steps," said the Sergeant, “and per
haps the lantern can reveal wliat it is.
The lantern was brought, and the
cry of murder seemed once more to
ring in their ears, for running down
the steps was a stream of blood, and
it was still warm. The blood contin
ued in a little stream until it reached
the back gate and there all trace of it
was lost. The ground outside of the
fence liore unmistakable signs of a
struggle, or as if something had been
dragged on it. “Captain 1 said a sol
dier, “some furniture was brought
here from the young officers quarters
a few days ago. Caraes drove the
wagon, but did not know to whom
the furniture belonged.” “From the
officers' quarters.” Captain Langdon
asked, “could it be that some one of
his comrades had met with a sad fate?’
He searched thoroughly both in the
house and around it, hut could find
no trace of any one. It was with a
perplexed face, he entered the Mess
Room a few moments later and found
all the officers assembled. Before be
answered anv of their questions his
keen eye had glanced quickly over
the group. “Captain \ ane is not
present," he said abruptly. Captain
Vane was a new comer and was not a
great favorite with his fellow officers.
The Colonel turned to an Orderly,
and said, “Go to Captain Y ane’s
quarters anil request nim to come
here immediately.” But before the
soldier could obey liis order Captain
Vane entered the room. His black
eyes looked wild and his cheeks were
deadly pale.
“My wife was too ill for me to leave
her,” he said, addressing the Colonel,
“or I would have obeyed your order
sooner ; in fuct, I have just received
vour message, and did not hear the
Orderly knock, as I was shut up in
iiiv wife's room attending to her.
f f he Colonel accepted liis apologies,
and looked at him with a curling lip.
Captain Vuue's evident trepotation
ami tardy appearance, gave the Cal^
nel an idea that tbe new officer was
not as brave as he should be.

were a very David and Jonathan; the
bond of love had been very great l>e-
tween them. Since poor Keitli s mys
terious fate, Langdon had been a
changed man; much quieter and sad
der. Some little incident in the morn
ing had recalled poor Keitli to Lang-
don's memorv more vividly than usu
al. The spell of sadness was still upon
him in the evening after dress parade,
and lie had wamiered apart from liis
comrades to indulge in sad reverie.
In the little lonely path he was
slowly' pacing, a slender form had
gone on before him.
“Mrs. Vane,” Capt. Langdon mut
tered half aloud.
She turned her beautiful face
towards him, and waited for him to
join her, which he did with liis usual
pleasant manner.
“Enjoving the moonlight, Mrs.
Vane,” he said, as he joined her.
“Is it moonlight?” she answered in
an absent manner.
Capt. Langdon looked at her cu
riously. Truly a 6trange woman, he
thought. .
“Have you ceased searching for
your friend?” she asked abruptly.
“I can find no clue, what istlie use?
he said.
“I would not cease my search for a
loved one, even if it did seem useless,
she said coldly'.
“What can I do?” he said iu a pained
tone.
“Search the brook behind the slate
house!” she said in a low eoncentra
ted voice.
He looked at her in amazement and
wonld have spoken, but she had gli
ded away, and with a warning finger
pointed to an advancing form. It
was Coat. Vane. What new mystery
was this ; Mrs. Vane’s strange inter
est in Keith, and her impressive
words : ‘search the brook behind the
Slate house?’ How the words sent a
shiver over him like a chilly wind from
poor Charlie’s tomb. He found him
self walking rapidly to tlie Slate
House.
He thought it was just an idea of
Mrs. Vane’s, and yet it would not do
anv harm to carefully search the
brook behind the Slate House. The
house looked dark, and dreary, even
in the moonlight, as he approached it.
Upon tlie brook's little banks Capt.
Langdon stood, amt looked carelessly
at the piles of rubbish which almost
impeded its flow. For years back this
had been a sort of place for the trash,
and refuse matter from the fort; old
shoes, bottles, and other kinds of
rubbish were piled on its edge, and
muon of it had fallen into the stream.

Charley Keith was borne into an ad
joining room, and the Colonel with
a stern face said to Capt. Vane—
“When times are quieter, I hope
you can explain this matter.”
“That 1 can easily do,” said Capt.
Vane with a polite bow-.
But after that day, never again did
lie put in an appearance. None of
Charley Keith's wounds proved to be
dangerous. With his dear wife’s
hand in his, he told of a night's expe
rience. Tlie Slate House being vaj
cant, he concluded to occupy it, thus
avoiding in a measure the wife he
thought had deserted him, aud the
man who had done him such a wrong.
He had occupied his quarters but a
day, when in the evening, becoming
oppressed hy the heat, he walked out
on the back piazza, and saw Capt.
Vane and two other men. Capt. Vane
struck him on the head with his
sword, and tlie men attempted to hold
his arms. He recollected struggling
with them down the steps, and out
into the yard, crying aloud for aid,
and then consciousness left him. The
men evidently intended to dig a grave
under the rubbish on the hauks of the
brook, but the soldiers coming so
quickly, made them leave and a
friendly Indian foundliim aud carried
him to his wigwam. Tlie Indian he
had once befriended, and lie had faith
fully nursed him for weeks. For
some time the wound on liis head un
settled liis mind, and he remained in
the lodge, until a few weeks before the
outbreak of Indian hostilities. When
the fort became beseiged, he thought
that the woman lie loved, might per
haps fall a victim to the bloody sava
ges. Tliis roused him into something
like interest and he determined to
save the fort or die in the attempt.
The sequel showed the result of his en
deavor.
Mrs. Vane was alone the night of the
attempted murder. Capt. V ane left
the house earlV in the evening, and
had not returned; a fact she did not
regard, as she had been asleep most
of the time. She was awakened by
the Captain's entering the room, and
with horrified eyes, saw him exchange
his coat, which was all bloody, for an
other; he then hastily left the room.
Hhe had not heard tlie cry of murder,
but the next day was told of it and
Charlie Keith's disappearance. From
the first she imagined he had been
murdered by Capt. \ aue. Capt. Vane
was a somnambulist, and after the
supposed murder, he became more
restless than ever. She followed bun
for several nights, and he always went
in the same direction, to the brook
behind the Slate House, so she con
jectured Keith's body must have been

as prosperous before; the little village
was flourishing. The miners came
up from the mines bringing their gold
unmolested, through many bands of
Indians. The fanners carried their
grain to the village, forgetting often
to carry Are arms. In the evening,
tM country people sought their rest
without a'fear ; before morning their
mutilated corpses were lying amid
the burning rafters of their homes.
