Petersburg, Va., December 19.— Frank Baker, negro murderer, of Sussex county, was executed at tlie county court house to-day for the perpetration of the greatest crime known to the law. By direction of tlie court the gallows was erected near the jail, enclosed by a high board fence, to hide the hanging from tlie public view, and but few persons were ad mitted into the enclosure. At noon the doomed man was led from the cell to the gallows, where lie met death with perfect indifference, and died apparently without a straggle. The crime for which Baker was execu ted was one of the most brutal and fiend ish ever known in this section of Virginia, and was committed the first night in August of the present year, at the house of James Rose, (colored), the former liv ing two miles from Stony Creek Station of Petersburg and Weldon railroad. The particulars of the murder are these: A lew weeks previous to the tragedy, James Rose and his wife had a bitter J uarrel and Rose thrive his wife away rom his house. She carried with her a little son seven years, a son by Rose, and took up her sesidence with Frank Baker, her son by a former hus band, one mile distant. Her anger was naturally aroused by the treatment she received at tlie hands of her husband, and was shared by Baker. This feeling in creased by the knowledge of tlie fact that R<K0 had taken to his house a young woman named Henrietta Shands; who had an infant named Agnes Shands, about one month of age. On the first of August, James Rose came to Petersburg to make purchases, during which time the munler was committed at his house. The details of the murder, as related by Mr. Rose’s son. who was compelled to witness the horrible crime was this. He said his mother, Maria Bose and .his half brother, Frank Baker, went to the house of James Bose the night above mentioned, carrying him with them. Arriving at the house, Henrietta Shands was seen in her room through a crack in the door. Through the crack Baker fired twice at her, but the shots did not take effect. The door was broken open and Baker rushed in, followed by his mother. Baker seized the frightened woman, threw her to the floor and there held her securely while Maria Rose, who was armed with a heavy piece of iron, beat her violently over the head and face. The beating continued until die supposed Henrietta Shands was dead, and the body then dragged out into the yard, when some on'the'head was^renewed until life became extinct. The body was then thrown into the mill pond. Baker then went into the bouse, seized the innocent child and brought it out doors. Tlte child was thrown in the hollow of an old stump, and literally buried alive. Dirt was thrown upon the child, rammed down upon the body, and chopped through with a spade. Baker and Maria Rose were snbsequently arrested and lodged in the county Jail, and on the 7th day of August were indicted for the murder by the grand juiy- ' As was their privilege under the law, they elected to be tried in the Circuit Court. Baker in the meantime made a full voluntary confession of his guilt, and in his confession he declared his mother innocent. It should here be stated that Baker, was indicted for the murder of the child and Maria Rose indicted for the murder of the woman. The murder at the time caused great excitement among the negroes of the neighborhood. The Circuit Court of Sussex county convened on the first day of November, Hon. S. S. Wessiger presiding." Baker was convicted on his confession and as soon as the ver dict of the jury was rendered Judge 'Wes siger passed the sentence of death, Decem ber 19 being fixed as the day of execution. When the sentence was passed Baker ap peared perfectly unmoved and indifferent. Another. Savaxxah, December 19.—A s pedal to the Morning Metes says Drew Hollo way, who killed Vcnson Brown last spring, was hung at Stateboro to-day. Two thousand persons witnessed the exe cution. Shooting Affray. New Obleaxs, December 19.—31. D. Xieman, a blacksmith, was to-day shot and instantly killed by John Cony, clerk of the 4th* district court. It is stated Corry called on Nicman to collect a bill, when Xieman seized an iron bar and at tempted to strike Cony, who drew a pis tol and fired. Corry was jailed, charged with the killing and also carrying con cealed weapons. The Soph- and his Waking Dreams. by X. I. E. It takes capital to start a college, hut the soph, is a self-made man without capital. Being a self-made man, he is a cross be tween the “Fresh.” and “Junior,” mid marked by the distinguishing vices of both Still we admire the Soph.', from the reck less slaut of his hat, to the careless grasp with which he imprisons Ills flabby yet distinguished cigarette. There is a man- of-the-world, Sir Charles Grandison air in his movements, perfectly enchanting. He views life through rose-tinted glasses, and moves strictly in a world of his own crea tion. In no stage of his existence does a man live as near the original plan of earthly happiness, as when he recites with tile Sophs. Bad lessons and damag ing reports are to him less than the shad ows of passing clouds, and a sunburst through scattering figments of vapor, is darkness, compared with the glory winch surrounds him, when he stands upon the comer, and with critical eye scans the habiliments of passing maidens. He knows a great deal better than we do, that he will bear off the first honor, and in the temple of Fame be crowned with the laurel wreath. Know ing this, life is to him a thing of beauty. Tlie fact that several Sophs have been Presidents of these U. S., establishes clearly in ins mind that none hut Sophs— political combinations not preventing—can ever again fill the place, and he looks for ward to the day, when, “Greece, her knee in supphanee bent, shall ter-r-r-emble at liis power.” I would rather be a Soph, standing on Yolgeris corner with a crumpled piece of cigarette paper in hand, and in the act of saying, “Robinson, haul out yer terbac- cer,” than drum-major of a band of ninety pieces. The pay might not be as much, but more eyes would be fixed on me and I would mash more girls, and that is true glory. I knew a Soph, once whose total worldly possessions were encased in a valise, in an 8x10 room on the fifth floor, and whose “governor” had ready for him a talented plow, with a Georgia mule attachment, as soon as he should have learned enough geometry to plow straight, yet this same Soph, would pull liis Hyperion locks care lessly over his Calhoun brow, and, with his feet elevated on a line with liis eyes, blow clouds of smoke into old nature’s face, while he dreamed of glory. And such dreams! He was a reckless sort of chap was this Soph.; utterly, in liis mind’s eye, regard less of life. He had been cut up more, shot oftener, had performed more miracu lous feats of strength and exhibited more heroic courage than any man since Ad am’s time. Strange to say, his “girl,” who, in college dialect, had gone hack on him, was always present when he was mangled. That was the chief glory in be ing mangled. Sometimes it would be a frantic horse madly dragging a buggy in which she sat, the crowdgives way in hor ror, and none are brave enough to rescue the imperiled maiden. None"? Only one. He springs forward, grasps the trailing lines with one hand, the wheel with the other, and, though dragged a quarter of a mile, succeeds in stopping the infuriated animal: he has just time to stagger across the road and to hear her scream, “My God, is he hurt?” when he faints, only to revive as the grateful father rushes up and offers him a home in the family. Or a house is burning. A maiden is at the window. The terrified crowd staggers back—there is always a crowd to view the scene and to stagger back. A lithe form goes up tho lightning rod: see he grasps the window sill—he is in. The crowd breathes hard. Are both lost? No. He appears amid the smoke with blankets and sheets tied together. He has her in his arms. He is coming down; slowly it is true, but ho is coming. Angry flames surround him. His clothing is on fire. His hands are blistered, everything is gone bat liis moustache—in his wildest dream he never lets that perish. Eager hands uprise to meet them. Hurrah! Hurrah!! Hurrah!!! and the mighty crowd bursts into an applause that echoes among the startled hills. But the brave rescuer is terribly injured; the deed was done at a terrible cost; still, beneath her ministry he recovers. He always recovers and—the girl is his. This is the burden of his dreams, the rescued maiden with variations to suit circumstances. I am not bettmg as much as I was, but I have everything up on the wager that more than three hundred maid ens are annually rescued by our Sophs. But Commencement Day! How shall I encompass the subject! ’it rises before me like an impossible dream. ’ The mel low gaslight; the stately President; the smiling Faculty; the monograms and flow ers, and the breathless audience. The last notes of “Life on the Ocean Wave” have just forsaken the horns to hurry out into the night, when, behold, he cometh! —the Soph. -Four society badges flash bad: the mellow light from his breast, and upon that Calhoun brow the Hyperi on lock is plastered into submissive adorn ment. For one brief moment his form is shut up like a jack-knife; the next it is unfolded in solemn grandeur. He plants one foot before him, casts his good eye towards heaven, and with his right hand extended in the attitude that accompanies the benediction, exclaims in a thrilling whisper: -There had been a day of triumph in Capua” But words fail me. Language is bank rupt, and even imagination will honor no more drafts. The pen may be mightier than the sword, but there are subjects migbiter than the pen, and this is one of them.

Beoeired to-day. 230 previously.. A Wall street telegram of the 16th to the Baltimore Sun says: Telegrams are pouring in from the South reganling the cotton position, and well they may, as there has been a fall this day week of one hundred and sixty to one hundred and seventy points. Many weak bulls have been slaughtered in the heavy drop, hut there have been no failures, and when Januaiys broke this forenoon to 12-16, acainst 13-S0 ou the 9th, there was a decided disposition to go in for an up ward turn- The question of the hour is what caused the fall? Simply the selling out of the more prominent bulls, who pocketed a profit of one to two cents per pound, and went short at the same time in both the New York and Liverpool mar kets.
