The usual prayer was said, the usu
al thunks tendered and greetings giv
en; the cord won adjusted on my neck,
I jvas placed upon the trap, looked so
the last time on familiar objects, the
cup wuh adjusted over my face, I felt ft
grout Lwitt arour.ri my heart, a fulness
of the throat, h slight weakness of the
muscles of my limbs, then an involun
tary shrinking of the nerves .and a
catching of breath as I felt myself full
ing, then a tierce, fiery pain shot
through my whole frame, my head
seemed bursting, and my consciousness
was gone.
How loug I remained unconscious 1
do not know, but when sensibility re
t irned it was entirely mental. Tin
shock of my fall had evidently paralyz
ed the nervous sensibilities and" des
troyed the physical capacity of sense,
but my mental powers were soon re
sumed in a wonderful manner, for my
earliest remembrance of anything win
the combination of all the colors of the
prism glowingrudiantly before my eyes.
Os course I did uot see them with my
eyes, but l seemed to see them thus,
aa the}’ glowed, and waved, and blend
ed, then separated, then reformed them
selves in new combinations, and danc
ed and laughed with a brilliancy far
exceeding the rainbow’s painting or
the prism’s power.
This gorgeous scene began to fade
away, and my next sensation was in! o
a sea of light; not tire light of the sun.
or such a light as is made by any chem
ical combination, but light of dazzling,
glowing, glorious whiteness, and pnii
tv, of which my own mind seemed to
be apart. I now began to observe my
own condition; I knew that my whole
t ody was grown cold and rigid, the
only perceptible warmth being in my
heart, and I wondered how long it
would be before that too should be
come cold like the balance, and I should
certainly die. I oven speculated upon
the pain I sboifld have to endure when
that spot did grow cold—but I never
knew. While I thus took note of th°
physical condition, my mind, >vith
gradually increased power, was fully
occupied. Before me in review, and
then gathered around me, were all the
transactions—of good or evil—of life;
there was nothing forgotten —nothing
absent. I saw them all, knew and rec
ognized them all. Even minute and
insignificant circumstances, which at
that time had made no impression on
me, were now there, and I became ful
ly aware of the fact that this sentiment
being which, animated by the body,
would not die, but li\e on, and on, and
on eternally, and eternally surrounded
by and in companionship, with all the
transactions of physical life. Everlast
ing life was as conclusively shown to
me as if the spirit that had been dead
a thousand years had spoken to me the
fact. But how was Ito exist ? I knew
X was not a part of any body; in fact
I desired to entirely sever the connec
tion with it, and impatiently waited
uutil the warm spot of my heart should
grow cold. Had I been at liberty to
accept or reject au offer of return to
vitality, I should have rejected it. In
vain I applied all the brilliant powers
of my’ purified mind to pierce the fu
ture, even to comprehend the presuit.
I recalled my early instructions, and
sought for yawning gulfs and cryow&l i
gates, but cn the one hand I found no
devouring fiends, and on the other 1
saw no gleaming chariots; I heard no .
songs of joy nor wailings of woe, nor
found any other being than tuy own.
I existed in my former Lfe, and, so far
as I could discover, would continue to
exist there forever. This was not de- ]
nimble, but from it I saw ro way of j
♦.jcape.
I have no idea of the time passed in
this condition, but it must have been i
ali the time required by medical judg
ment to deprive me of life, for iu the
m ; d-it of my speculations I became
aware of the removal and handling of
my body. I remembered 1 thought
they were about to bury me, and, as 1
was not dead, I wished to protest
against it. I loathed the idea of being
incarcerated in the grave with my be dy
or having further companionship with
it. I did not know what was being
done, but I felt myself in motion for a
time, and thou the motion ceased; then
thorn was a quick, sharp, rending pain,
a fearful struggle of the whole physic
al powers, a writhing, an anguish far
worse than the anguish of death, and
sensibility and senses slowly returned
to me; once more my heart which had
never grown col l, throbbed, my vital
functions were partially reestablished,
and again i became burdened with the
cares, anxieties and sorrows of life. —
To me it has beer one long sorrow, and,
without joy or hope, I await the time
when I shall once more bathe in that
sea of light, once more gather around
me the radiance of life everlasting.
My resuscitation was the result of an
application of electricity and the skill
of a surgeon For a few days, until I
had partially recovered my strength, I
was concealed, and then fled the coun
try.

A few days ago he officiated iu Rev.

summoned, among whom were some of l

amined his unusual and peculiar care.
It was decided that his eyes were in a

month, at least, he must remain in a
room, whers no ray of light can reach
them. Dr. Kramer is highly esteemed
by his congregation. During the war

[ The election news from Tennessee,
1 published this morning, conveys the
gratifying intelligence that the Con
■ servative pai ty has carried the State by
an over whel tuning majority. Thus
one by one the Southern States arc
fading into line under the glorious ban
ner of Democracy. Radicalism has
been killed in Tennessee and the thou
sands of white men, heretofore disfran
chised and outraged in all their right*,
of person and property, will be reliev
ed from the infamous tyranny of Rad
ical misruK
It is highly probable that Andrew
Johnson will be sent to the United
States Senate. President Grant, and
his administration and the Radical
party wdl find in the ex-President a
powerful opponent, and the South, let
us hope, an earnest and effective ad
vocate. Differing widely and radically
from Mr. Johnson iu the past, w’e be
lieve that the people rs Tennessee will
subserve not only their own interests
bnt the entire interests of the
whole South by sending him to
the Senate. With all his faults—and
lie has many of them to answer fox*—
he hates the party in power with an
undying, uncompromising hatred.
Andrew Johnson is still a strong man
and he will work unceasingly and effec
tively, we believe, for the overthrow of
that party which still wars upon the
South. And in this he wll work good
for the Southern people. It will lie an
act of contrition and a partial repara
tion for tho wrongs which he inflicted
upon our section as well as for the
many other grie vous acts of his past
political life. - Chronicle A Sentinel.
More Important Decisions—
Another Heavy Mrolie tor
Siellef.
Our Supreme Court, in theirrulings
delivered yesterday’, delivered one that
will be found in another column, that
carries relief a goo 1 many degrees to
perfection.
In the case of L. N. B. Battle versus
James A. Shivers, from Warren Supe
rior Court, the tremendous, and we
are constrained to say, iniquitous dic
tum is promulgated that the suspens
ion of the Statute of Limitations dur
ing the war did not apply to the lien
of judgments, but that notwithstand
ing the collection of judgments was
absolutely stopped, the limitation of
their lien continued, and they must be
come dormant unless levied in the sev
en years, prescribed for keeping judg
ments alive.
It boots us not to look into the law
of the thing The political ruling of
the court stands the supreme law of
the land, and must be obeyed. Judge
Warner, who dissent t, as he has done
heretofore, from all the courts Radical
decisions, rips to pieces the flimsy reas
oning of Chief Justice Brown and
Judge McCny, and exposes in his own
unvarnished and .scathing way, the bad
law and worse faith of the legal con
clusions oi lib colleagues.
We have to do, for practical purpos
es now, only with the results of the de
cision.
All judgments seven years old, that
have no entry on them to keep them
alive,, are dormant, ami lose their =Jien,
and must be sued like accounts, or
no lea, or anything else unsued. They
are simply subject matter and rights
to sue.
It is impossible so estimate the
amount of debts that will thereby .be
killed. It will ran almost, if not quite,
to millions. Hundreds upon hundreds
of claims, now nestling cosily’ and safe
ly in coffers and pocket-books, and
desks, and believed to be as sound as :
gold, and as certain 01 recovery as the
bond-holders deem their fat gold in
terest, are as defunct as door nails, 1
Hundreds of robustious, executions,
with broad acres of rich lands legally
bound for their payment, have, by this
decision, lost their clutch up 11 solven
cy’, and now’ lie as flabby as worthless
rags, and as lifeless as dead men’s
bones. And in numberless cases the
very State government, whose judicia
ry thus administers the deadly blade
to honest claims, forbade by its legis
lative authority the collection of these
claims, and is, therefore, responsible
that they are to-day defunct.
And when it is considered that in
countless cases, men, innocently trust
ing the integrity of solemn law—that
law the beneficent creation of their
own cherishing government for her
children, have not levied, because they
were merciful to debtors, worse than
Punic faith of this matter i- patent.
Little recked they that political phy
lacteries, while they might invade the
bench with polluting contagion, could j
yet venture so far as to debauch, not |
simply the integrity of law, but defile
the very faith of the government to
her confiding and helpless children.
Bold as have been the innovations of
Radicalism upon the soundest and
most time-honored enlight
ened jurisprudence, this seems to us;
the most audacious aggression yet
made upon our established system of
law.
From this forward, we shall consider
nothing sure, however stably grounded
in legal philosophy, and fortified by in
disputable legal theory.
We will notice but one more result
of this decision, and then cease.
While thousands of judgments will
be destroyed that were deemed uncon
ditionally solvent, thousands of youn
ger judgments, that were regarded as
worthless will gain new vitality from
the removal of older conflicting liens.

reference to the divisions and looking
to a reunion of the two ecclesia tical

Resolved, That it is the unanimous

Another Important Sleds lon.
Our Supreme Court on Tuesday,
delivered another of their rulings that
have a special importance for our peo
ple, in connection with the times.—
Large amounts of money, are concern
ed and the heaviest interests of that
large class of legal characters known
as fiduciary, as guardians, administra
tors, executors, etc.
The case was Killes Brown, against
Win. Wright, from DeKalb.
The Court decided that a prudent
guardian, who before January, 1863,
loaned money of his wards on negro
security, is not liable, because of negro
emancipation, whereby the money was
lost. And that a guardian who took
confederate money, in good faith for
debts due liis wards, when prudent
men were generally tailing such mon
ey, is protected: and if he loaned the
funds, so received before the Ist days
of January, 1863, on good security, and
they were lost, by the results of the
war, he is not liable.
Hundreds of guardians, executors,
trustees. Ac., took Confederate money,
which was lost, who have been stud,
or threatened with suit, who willuow be
relieved.—At, Const. 30th.

Teu years ago Charles Langston, a col

the United States Court of this city,
i upon a prosecution instituted by tin
I administration of James Buchanan, for
a violation of the Fugitive Slave Law,
i was found guilty aud imprisoned in the
county jail for 20 days. It was just 10
years last Wednesday since this sen
tence was fulfilled. Now we find tbis
convicted criminal offered the position
of United States Minister for Liberia.
I ThL is a curious illustration of the
changes wrought by time.
To which the Plain Dealer adds:
About ten years ago Daniel E. Sick
les committed a cowardly murder in the
streets of Washington. Now 7 he repre
sents the United States at the Court of
Spain.
Less than ten years ago Governor
Joe Brown, of Georgia, was the leader
of the secession movement, and after
i wards the originator, builder and man
| ftger of the Andersonville prisoner’s
| pen, in which so many thousands of
Union Soldiers perished. Now 7 Brown
! in the leader of the Radical party in j
Georgia.
Considerably less than ten years ago
General Longstreet was at the head of
a rebel arroy, dealing death to om
Union Soldiers. Now he is appointed
by Grant to a lucrative position in the
i city of New Orleans.
Ten years ago Benjamin Butler, at I
the Chariest >n Convention voted 53 i
times for Jeff. Davis as a candidate for !
President, and, at that time, was a
poor man. Now he is at the head and j
; —the very quintessence of Radicalism J
; —and worth his millions of dollars.
Ten years ago Ulyses S. Grant was a !
i penniless pensioner on the bounty of j
j the Dent, family. Now he is the Pres- !
: ident of the United States, and the
; entire Dent family are pensioners on j
1 the Government.
| Ten years ago the National debt was ;
i about GO millions of dollars; now it is j
i nearly three thousand millions.
Ten years ago not a National fas j
i gatherer was to ba seen or heard of in

These are certainly “curious illustra

Terrible Itctiibuflon.
The Chronicle & Sentinel has relia
ble information of a terrible tragedy
that occurred recently in one of the
mountain counties of this State.
Two neighbors designated as R. and
L., both formerly wealthy, lived near
each other and were on terms of inti
macy. R, Who is a comparatively
young man, Las recently married a
beautiful lady. L. was about 55 years
of age, his wife near the samo age, and
they have a daughter who is an inti
mate friend of Mrs. R., 25 years old. —
Mr. It. having been called from home
for a few days, his wife sent for Miss
L. to come and spend the night with
her, as she would be entirely alone, the
servant’s bouses being nearly a. half a
mile away. The father of Miss L. re
fused to let her go, and she so inform
ed Mr?. R. about nine o’clock. Mrs.
It. not knowing what else to do, fast
ened up the house, and taking a very
large and fierce yard dog into her
room for protection, retired.
About mid-night she was awakened
by the fierce growling of her faithful
protector, and hearing someone in the
other room, she demanded who was
there. She was ordered to open the
door, an! in spite cf her entreaties and
threats, the door was forced open by
the ruffian. Quick as thought the fu
rious dog seized the intruder by the
neck, and soon had him in deadly con
flict. Mrs. R. darted from the room
and made all possible haste to the res
idence of Mr. L. She soon awoke the
family, and, Mr, L, not being at homo,
his wife and daughter, together with
some of the servants, accompanied her
back home.
Tho scene there presented was one
of horn r and astonishment, beyond all
power of description. We can imagine
the feeling of Mrs. L. and her daugh
ter, as they beheld tho husband and
father pale in death, and the dog still
growling at his throat.
Intense excitement was produced in
the neighborhood, on the following day
when the facts became known, but the
general feeling was one of thankfulness
that Providence had provided speedy
and suitable punishment for the fiend
ish criminal.
The Knoxville Whig says it is esti
mated that the blackberry crop of Ten
nessee, if properly harvested, would
make 100,000 barrels of wine-, worth
about $8,000,000.
