VOICES OF THE DAY. Letters from the People to the Herald. FROM ALL PARTS OF THE COUNTRY A BOY’S PROTEST. A TOUCHING APPEAL TO THE CITY FATHERS. T. Bouldin and Col. E. D. Biket; the defense by S. A. Booker and D. S. Terry. The trial was concluded on the night of Oct. 14. the jury rendeiiog a verdict of guilty, with a “recommendation to mercy.’’ Counsel en deavored to obtain a new trial, but without success, and on the 22d of January, 1855, Tabor was sentenced to be hung, his execu tion being fixed for Friday, March 16. His friends immediately set to work to obtain Executive clemency from Governor John Bigler, and labored so faithfully that on the dth of March, only one week prior to the day set for carrying the sentence into effect, a full pardon was received and the sheriff or dered to discharge the prisoner. His pardon was asked for by a large num ber of people of the best classes, including— members of the Stockton bar; Mayor and common council; 120 ladies and 1,041 citi zens of San Joaquin county; 416 ladies and 617 gentlemen, former neighbors and ac quaintances of the prisoner in Texas; 20 Sen ators and 61 members of the Assembly of the California Legislature; the editors of twenty- five journals published in tbe State, and every minister of the gospel in Stockton. With this pressure brought to bear upon him. Governor Bigler did not long hesitate to grant the asked for pardon. Tabor remained here bnt a short time after being released, and finally left tbe State and located in Mem phis, where be died. Mansfield, Sabor’s vic tim, was tbe father of tbe notorious Helen Josephine Mansfield, who has figured exten sively in the Fisk-Stokes troubles in New Yojk. Beaten at Her own Game. “ So yon have finished your studies at the seminary ? I was much pleased with the clos ing exercises. The author of tnat poem— Miss White, I think you called her—bids fair to be known as a poet.” “We think the authoress will become cele brated as a poetess,” remarked the young lady pertly, with a marked emphasis on two words of the sentence. UfOh!—ah,'* replied the old gentleman, look ing thoughtfully over his gold spectacles at the young lady. “ I hear her sister was quite on actress, and under Mr. Hosmer’s instruc tions will undoubtedly become quite a scnlp- toress.” The young lady appeared irritated. “The seminary,” continued tbe old gentle man with imperturbable gravity, “is fortunate in having an efficient Board of Manageresses. From the Presidentcss down to the humblest teacheress, unusual talent is shown. There is Misa Harper, who, as a chemistess, is un equaled, and Mrs. Knowles has already a reputation as an astronomeress. And in the department of music few can equal Miss Kel logg as a singcress. The young lady did not appear to like the chair she was sitting on. She took the sofa [at the other end of the room. i Yes,” continued the old gentleman, as if talking to himself, “those White sisters aro very talented. Mary, I understand, has turn ed her attention to painting and the drama, and will surely become famous as an actress and a painteress, and even as a lecturess.” A loud slamming of the door caused the old gentleman to lookup, and the crhicess and grammarianess was gone! ATLANTA. Atlanta, Ga., July 14, 1873. To the Editors of tiie Herald: Allow me apace in your columns to say a few wotcIs in behalf of the many boys of this cilv. The City Fathers will not allow them to play any of their little harmless games on the back streets. Well, now I don’t want you -t,y understand me to mean that I think they ought to play on the sidewalks, Bnt the city ought to have parks and commons or c quires lor boys to play on, and lor ladies and children to spend their alternocns. In all the large cities like Atlanta they have such things. They spend too much money grad ing the Lilly streets that never look any bet ter. But time will not allow me to talk any more. ^ Boy. FKO.H COIVERs. LAYING OF C ORNER STONE—INTERESTING CERE MONIES. Conyers, Ga., July 14, 1873. To THE EniTOBS OF the IIebald: To-day was a big day in Conyers, occasion ed by the loving of the corner stone of Philo- locia Lodge, No. 17S, F. & A. M. The exer cises were participated in by several visiting lollops Tbe ceremonies were conducted by Worshipful Mast er. Dr. Stewart, and were of a very imposing character. After the cere- monies were over, the procession formed and marched to tbe MettoJist Church, where a large audience had assembled. Speaking was then announced to be in order. L F Livingston, Esq., from Siloam Lodge, then addressed the audience in a neat and chaste speech of some hal f hour. At the close ho was loudly applauded. He was then fol lowed by CoL J. C. Barton in a short speech, replete with good sense, after which W. M. Dr. Stewart addressed the crowd, at the con clusion of which the ceremonies were declared over, and the crowd dispersed. T. J. B. AT FORSYTH. M iNBOE FEMALE COLLEGE—COMMENCEMENT EX ERCISES AT FORSYTH—POWERFUL SER MON BY BISHOP PIERCE. Forsyth, Ga., July 14, 18<3. To the Editors of the Herald: Everything is interesting, and everybody in Forsyth interested just at this time. The commencement exercises of the c ° 1_ lege located here, are progressing, and the city is alive with people, there be-in 7, a large number of visitors here from different parts of the State. The college, which is the oldest insti tution of the kind in the South, with but a single exception, and which was formerly un der" tbe direction and control of the Baptist denomination, is now under the fostering care of the Mayor and Council of the city, who, about eighteen months ago, spent about one thousand dollars for improvements on the building and grounds. The trustees of the college, of whom they are fourteen, are ap pointed by the city authorities. The faculty is composed of efficient and eminent educators and the course of instruction thorough and complete. The attendance of young ladies from Middle Georgia is large, while there are quite a number from different sec tions. The examinations which have been progressing since Friday have thus far re sulted to the entire satisfaction of tbe corps of instructors, Board of Irustees and all others interested in tbe welfare of tho institution. The sermon was j ° preached at 11 o’clock a. m Sunday, by Capital PriZe $7,000.00 Bishop Pierce, at the College Chapel to an | immoasa concourse of people. Tbe Bishop 30;n Amounting to $53,253.20. took as a foundation for bis dmcourse tbe i ’ first eight verses of tbe 78th Psalm, as setting for the duty which one generation owes to another, and made a masterly application of the subject to the matter of education. The sermon was happily framed and presented with a blending of tbe religions and educa tional. The attributes of the two orders of intel lectual beings- angels and men were described and the admonition to teach—to educate the rising generation, and the obligation we are under to do this—the dnty assigned to and enjoined upon us, laid belore the congrega tion wijh a master hand. No description of this eloquent and powerful effort of the Bishop, who for one hour and five minutes enchained the profound attention ot his nndl- tory, can do justice to the author. Suffice it, therefore, to state that by those who have heard him often, it is pronounced one of the first arnoncr the many triumphs of the Bishop- preacher. On Sunday evening there was no service at the other churches in the city, and the Bishop again preached—this time at tbe Methodist Church—to a crowded house, from the following Scripture, contained in the 6th chapter of the prophecy of Amos: “Woe to thtm that are at ease in Zion.” Among the visitors from a distance we notice Professor Robert E. Park, J. W. Edwards, N. H. Poe. J. Elliott. Colonel J. W. Aderhold, W. H. Ross, C. H. Cromwell, J. G. Brown, Macon; Bishop Pierce, Sparta; Judge R. P. Trippe, Atlanta; Professor White and others. At 12 o'clock to day the Sophomoro Exhibition prize rhetorical reading came off. The class consists of the following beautiful young la dies, all of whom read tho pieces designated in a manner that reflected great credit upon themselves and instructors: Miss Sallie Proctor read “Leaves have their time to fall,” by Mrs. King; Miss Ceola Ham ilton—"Scene in the French Revolntion—dia logue between father and daughter ” Miss Georgia Jacob- “Tbe Bachelor,” which had the effect of alarming tba, unfortunate class of beings, and causing them to reflect on their tendency. „ Miss Fannie Goodrum—‘-Lady ot the Lake. Miss Ida Walker—“Young Man at Piano forte turning music for young lady, or ‘-rather awkward.” Miss Minnie Moore 1 shall miss tho chil dren”—by Dickens. Misses Ella Proctor and Annie Amos, the other members of the class, had not read up to the time ot which we write. The contest is for a gold medal, to be presented in behalf of the trustees by Judge Trip to-morrow.

The Man Who Murdered the Father of the Notorious Josephine Mansfield. From the Stockton (Cal.) Independent. John Tabor, a native of Charleston, S. C., died in Memphis, Tenn., on the 14th of Jane last, aged fo tf-seven years. Tabor will be remembered by early residents of Stockton, and a recollection will bring to mind a trag edy here, in which be was the surviving actor. On the 23d of Jane, 1854, Tabor, then editor of the Stockton Journal, shot aDd killed Jos. Mansfield, one of tbe proprietors of the Sou Joaqnin Republican. The affair grew out of a controversy between tbe two newspapers in relation to tbe connty printing, which finally ended in a bitter personal warfare, and the death of Mansfield at tbe bands of bis rival. At the August term of tbe Connty Court, fol lowing the killing, Tabor was indicted by the grand jury for murder. Hie trial was com menced in tbe District Court, Judge Creaner presiding, October 13, 1854. The prosecu tion was conducted by District Attorney Thoa. CENTRAL SHORT ROUTE! Titta West and Nortliwest!
