Oakes Ames and James S. Brooks have both died within the past ten days. They were the only two members of Congress who were publicly censured for Credit Mobilier operations. John Stuaiit Mill, the English phi losopher and political economist, died ou the 9th of May. lie was one of the most original thinkers of his day.

Here is the rea son, *1 expected to go, and was making arrangements for a trip, but they noised it abroad and made so much preparation that I thought it would be too much like swinging around the circle. I join ed a procession of that kind once.” Several sympathisers with Miss Eb eriiart, the murderess, have been con verted from their sympathy since the appearance of the picture of that per sonage in the Atlanta San It is now generally believed she ought have been hung, if she looked like it. We object to the reason and the conclusion, lest a premature conviction of felony might be made ought against Recorder Ham mons, of Atlanta. James L. Our, U. S. minister to Russia, died at St. Petersburg one day last week, his death being caused by the extreme cold of that city. He was J fifty -one years old at the time of his j death, and had been a prominent man j for years, having been Speaker of the I House of Representatives, U. S. Con- j gress, Confederate States Senator, and was principally instrumental in pre venting the secession of South Caroli na in 1851. —<—> ± a•- Capital Punishment. —The census of 1870 teaches, according totho New York World, that when we executed one murderer to each ten homicides the to tal mrdrs were only ten in a million ; when we executed one murderer to six tee nhomicides, the murders were thirty one in a million; and when wc executed only one murder to sixty-six homicides? the number of murders rose to fifty-three in a million. Tbe humanitarians will find it difii dhlt to explain away these facts. Foreign Immigration. —The English papers arc cominenfing on the unexam pled emigration this spring from Liver pool and other ports. The number of steamers leaving the Mersey for the United States and Canada, putting aside those which sail for tl>e West ludies and the so 'th and the west coast of South America, is daily increasing, whilst the number of emigrants arriv ing in Liverpool eu route for the United States is enormous; in fact, the lodging- j house keepers find it almost impossible to accommodate these “birds of passage” j during their sliort stay in Liverpool- The emigrants -come trom all parts of the world. They are Germans, Danes, Swedes, Norwegians, French, English and Irish. These latter are fewer than usual, the stream of emigration from Iteland dow going by way of Queens town, Londondery and Belfast. The Scotch emigration is light, while the English is constantly increasing. The emigrants this year to the United States ( will be of a better class than ever be- fore. In gome of the Baltimore public schools, both white and colored, instruc tion in sewing has been introduced by voluntary consent. The result is said to bo entirely satisfactory. Efforts are makiDg to have sewing become a regu- i lar part of public school instruction in that city. # [COMMUNICATED.J Jftssrs.

Editors: —With no feelings of envy or spirit of retaliation do 1 under take to discuss, through your paper, the nicMts of the late decision of the U. S. Supreme Court in reference to the | Homestead and Belief laws. I have i seen in The Expositor two coimuunica ! tions upon the subject, one from ‘Tully,’ I who insists upon compromise as the most rational mode of settling the matter between debtor and creditor, while ‘Jus tie" 1 urges immediate pressing of suits or judgments as the only for cred itors; and you, in your last, make a noble appeal for mercy. Now, I re spectfully ask on what grounds can, compromise be demanded, or where is, the reason for •mercy? ' “ The mercy I to oiliers show, That mercy show to me,” hns been well said. No, IHe long years have creditors been asking and willing to compromise, in many instances offer ing his debtor any terms that ho might choose: yet, where has there been a solitary response —I mean in eases where there was a homestead obtained—With few, very few instances or exceptions, echo answers, where ? I admit that the war left all poor, and in many cases all that the widows and orphan children if you please—of brave men who died to protect, or in the effort to protect the property of their debtors, their whole and sole dependence for life and educa tion cousi.-ted in these just and barred debts. 'Would it be injustice how, after years of suffering and toil, in poverty aud ignorance, to give them their rights to tbe full measure, yen, running ov<jr.?j No, sirs; I insist that the day of com- \ promise has past; yet, I. venture the j assertion that, in every case where there | has been a disposition on tbe partpfj debtors to pay, there will be rib trouble! about compromising ngic. But where men have been strongly- entrenched Be hind a breastwork, in the Homestead: and Relief Acts, for five or mere years, i aud have offered no flag of truce until] after their strong hold has been justly I and righteously upset, I can’t sec why they can but ask only the terms of their creditors—or to bo brief and plain, one man is as much entitled to his 'money as another is to his homestead. HOME. JJuvJce County, May 10, 1873. “ The mercy I to others show, That meicy show to me,” I The above couplet will very well suitl the self-righteous Pharisee ot tho pres- cut generation—quite as well as it did j those who have “slept with their fathers” i for eighteen hundred years. It is an evil quality, if we judge and condemn I by the plummet and line of our own weak and selfish natures. Nor preju dice, nor malice, nor selfishness should control the actions of men toward their fellow creatures; if otherwise, then, in deed, “man is man’s mortal foe.” But “Tho quality of merry is not strain’d ; It droppeth m tho gentle rain from heaven Upon the place beneath ; it is twice Moss’d It Mosses him that gives, and him that takes : ’Tis mightiest in the mightiest; it bfceomeA The throned monarch hotter than his crown.” j And it becomes tho creditor better, a! thousand times, than the “pushing of] : his claims,” however just those claims i may be—for lo ! the general ruin that I must certainly follow in tho wake.— ) The power is tho creditor’s l —the law l has enthroned him—let mercy temper 1 justice! F j The Effects of Radicalism in Louis, iana.— Chevalier Forney thus alludes I to tho Radical civil war in Louisiana He says: Louisiana just now is in tho condi tion of one of the South Amcrioa -Re publics, or what was formerly their con dition. Battles and skirmishes between the Kellogg and MoEuery partisans are j reported from a half dozen different j places. Before long, perhaps, there \ may be another use for tho regular army,! besides tho extermination of the Modocs. ] Forney should have accompanied the above paragraph with a pressing invita- j tion to the plundered and subjugated I citizens of Louisiana to attend tho Grand Centennial Celebration in Philadelphia, of the birth of civil liberty on this con tinent,— Savannah News. [From the New York Bun.] FREE LOVE, MURDER AND CANT. An extraordinary murder commit ted in Eureka, Illinois, a few weeks ago, has mused great) excitement in that region. The victim was a widow of the name of Hedges. Her body, when discovered, boro evidence that she had come to hor death by foul piny, and upon examining it two letters from a Methodist clergyman named Workman, was found pinned to her under cloth ing. Mrs. Hedges was thought to Bo an estimable, pious woman, aud Work man washer pastor; yet those letters ' revealed the fact that an improper in timacy had "xi' ted between the two. They did more than this, for they gave a clue to tho murderer, aud suspicion was at once directed to the wife of Workman, a woman of violent temper, as the perpetrator of the crime. Mrs. Workman was promptly arrested, and various circumstances were brought to : light which led to the belief that the accused, having discovered the intimacy between Mrs. Hodges aud her husband, had murdered her rival in a fit of jeal ous rage. The evidence going to show that this wus the truth was very com plete, yet the Grand .Jury who inves tigated the case failed to find an indict ment, and Mrs. Workman was set at liberty. | Some of tho letters which passed be | tween the murdered woman aud her pastor have boon made public, and they aro truly remarkable productions.— Mingled with the most violent declara tions of love for each othor me equally zealous protestations of their love and religion. Mrs, Hedges writes to \yorkmau that she lmd becu fighting against her love for him for months be fore she knew or thought of his oaring for her; and theu she goes on compla cently to say. after her belief tiuit.she is getting nearer to Gob, ‘•May Ills grace ever sustain us, and may wc try to labor more for tbe salva tion of those around us,.forgetting our selves in the interest we take iu tho saving of the souls of others. Oh !, let work for the Master, and all tilings will work together for goad to them that love the Lord. 1 But perhaps the most wonderful cxhPottldn ot the cor respondence is that in the following letter from Mrs. Hedges, which un doubtedly led to her death : Dear Brother : I am glad you came in this evening. I was afraid you did not intend to come again after what !i#d been said. I inTst have one W' those books. Til see you again about it. You asked me to pray that God plight deliver yon from your trouble.*— | I have been praying fur a long time that God might so change the heart,by 1 His almighty power, of her whom lie has given you, that she might see the error of her ways and turn, and not only love Gob, but love her husband. Nothing is impossible with Gob, and if he would cleanse Mary Magdaline, why not another? I want vou to join tnc in this prayer, and that He may give yo*u a spirit of forgiveness and turn your J hell into a heaven. I know that I love you well enough to live with you and be happy, and make you happy enough to forget that wo ever had any trouble, but I don’t think that will ever be,and then we would bo so very liappy here that we would want to stay here always, and possibly forget Gon and backslide. We have to travel up hill and act dif ferently, or we are apt to stand s*ill and go backward. May God direct us, and give us wisdom and grace to help us to do right.” This lettev Mrs. Workman found in her husband’s povkethook while she was dutifully engaged in mending' his clothes. After rending it one can hard ly wonder that the injured wife took summary vengeance on its author. The letters of Workman are of a singular revolting character, as his real nature is permitted to crop Out from almost every lino of his sickening cant about religion and his duty to his Ma ker. He now stoutly protests that there was never anything criminal in his relations with Mrs. Hedges; ydt we find him writting : “Is God willing that I should have two wives at once? It is true that Jacob had two, and Abraham might as well, and Guy never condemned them, with many others of that class.” Again : “I ought never to have told you how intensely I loved you. Why did you not slap my jaws when L lil t attempted to ki> ; you, and that would huvcv'ndod it forever?” In another letter lie promises to marry the woman if tho time ever arrives when ho can do so, rogardloss of cir cumstance-, notwithstanding that she has five children, while lie has six; and coolly closes his tho pious, admonition: ‘‘Oh! I t us wait, and work and ptuy, and let God in his providence dispose of us.” This sug gests tho idea that if Mrs. Workman had not been too quick for the precious pair who were bewailing her faults, it is quit* po*sibfh she might have been the victim instead of tho supposed au thor of a terrible murder. And now, with all these facs before the world, Workman puts on a bold front, and intimates that the hard things that have been said about him arc the result of enmity to tho Methodist church. In a letter to the Rock Island Union, in which ho attempts to defend himself, ho says : “If tliis’had not taken place in a Uampbellito town, who hate the Methodists far worse than they do the devil, there would nut have been so many unmitigated lies published übout it.” It is plain he thinks that if he can only make a denominational question of the matter he will come out all right in the end. No person of cOirffnon sense can bo licvc that the Methodists will look with any less horror upon tho depravity man ifested in this ease because Workman and the murdered woman were Metho dist.?. On the contrary,-the thought that tlie good repute of their church is affected will render the crime more hateful to them than to any others.— But it is an unquestionable fact that many cases of depravity are hu>hed up and many bad men upheld in wrong doing, simply because it is thought that their exposure and pnn'shment would bring into disrepute the religious de nominations to which they belong.— And the knowledge of this fact induces graceless and irreligious men to make loud professions of piety which they do not possess, in order that their “high Christian character” may serve to shield them in case any of thtfifr tran.’gressions should come to light. The Workman case, rightly viewed, will afford a lesson to the members of ail religious denom ination#. Discoveries at Pompeii. The Unita Nationale, of Naples, gives an, account of some interesting research , cs recently made in the ruins of the hur ried oity : “In the porch of a sin ill house two skeletons, that of a woman) as it had on a bracelet in massive <old of an unusual form, composed of thick rings rfoldcred towaoh other, tho whole being fastened by two pieces of wire of the same mental. The day after, in the garden of the same building, was dis covered a small statue, seated, about t\¥<u feet high, of a rather uncommon model. It is in terracotta, but of no definite type; The head, in fact, is ab solutely that of Jupitor; the figure is covered with a tunic, having short sleeves which only cover tho upper part of the arms;-' the logs and hands are cfQsgcd; a cloak falls from the shoul ders and envelops the lower limbs; the right hand holds a papyrus, so that the belief is it must represent a philoso pher. Two days after, however, a more important work* of art was found at the bottom of another garden contiguous to the one above mentioned, namely, a marble Venus, measuring, with the base more than a yard iu height. It is in perfect preservation, as it only wants two fingejes of the right hand, but the mo.-t’reuiarkable characteristic is that it is colored. Tho excavations of Pom. peii Herculaneum have p-oduced many other specimens of painted marble, but the tints have ajl more or less faded away. In the present work the hair is yellow, the cyc-Ushos and eyebrows black; the ehalamys, which from the left arm, passing behind the shoulders, de cends on the legs and covers the lower parts, is also tinted yell iw outside, while the interior folds show at the edges some traces of blue and red. The rude parts of which holds the apple of Paris, rests upon a smaller statue, tho drapery of which is also tinted yellow, green and black.” ... ■ —*. • The “Gilded Ag 6” is the title of the no*el which Mark Twain and .Dudley Warner have written in partnership. Mark wrote to the Graphic about it: He lias worked up the fiction and I have burled in tho facts. I consider it one tbe most astonishing novels that ever was written. Night after night I sit up reading it over and over and crying. It will be published early in the fall, aud with plenty of pictures. m & Vi & JL 12 LLr a At the residence of the bride’s nipllirr, j in Waynesboro’, on the evening of the Xth j instant, by the Itev.
