THURSDAY MORNING, A PHIL 6, 1877 Fred Douglas* and Mr. Hayes. Everywhere, North and South, it will he turn mini t wondered at, that Mr. Hay£ tthuuld have appointed Fred Douglas* to the responsible and prominent position of MstslmJOf llicDihtrictol Columbia. We saj tfimrwhuit but really it ought not to astonish arty one knowing tho negro <HiualitjPproalivitie* of his Aoeideney, 11. B. Hayes. The first thing heard from him last November, after the news of Mr. Tilden’s election was fully known, Mr. Hayes began to whine and shed crocodile tears over the poor negroes in the South, and suyihg that he cured nolhing for his own defeat, hut lie dreaded tho fate of tho poor negro under a Dem- ocratic administration. That showed tho animus of the defeated candidate of the republican party for the Presidency. But when Mr. Hayes ap points old Fred as Marshal of the District of Columbia, and it isknown that it is his duty on State occasions to stand at Mrs, Hayes' right hand to introduce to her Foreign ministers, and persons of distinc tion, it induces the belief that Hayes ha negro on the brain. To most white men it would have, been more agreeable to have selected and appointed at least a white man for such a delicate and responsible office. The office pays from eight to ten thousand dollars a year, and old Fred has appointed one of his sons as his assistant, and he receives S3OOO. Young Douglass, we suppose, will stand on Hayes’ right hand, or probably near Miss Fannie Hayes. We doubt if the old maxim “every man to his liking,” ought to apply in this ease; for this is a white man's govern ment. ami however partial Mr. Hujcs may be to the negro, w think in defer ence to the millions of white men and women in this country, ho might have appointed in this instance a white person to do the honors of the White House. If we were in Mrs. Hayes’ place wo would sue for a divorce, or do something des perate before we would be found on Stato occasions, standing by that old freedom shrieking, old buck negro, Frederick Douglass, Esq. An extra session of the Forty fifth Congress, is oalluil to meet in June for the purpose of making appropriations fo 1 * the support of the army. In ref r nee to the army appropriations, the New York Sun has this to say: “In the recent Congress, the House and Sonata wore unable to agree upon this subject. The House Insisted oti re ducing the numbers of the army and on inserting a clause prohibiting the use of troops to maintain cither oftho competing State Governments in Louisiana or South Carolina- These two features the Semi to would not tolerate. lienee the bill failed uml an extra session now has to he called "It is not possible to foresee wlmt will be the whole scope and duty of this extra session. Many things are likely to come up for discussion and action which are not now anticipated; but ono thing is already plain: The House must stand firmly upon the reduction of the army aud the prohibition against the use of trops to maintain Chamberlain and Packard. No matter whether the bill furl* again or not, this is sure and safe ground to staud upon - The country can get along very well without any army, but it cannot get along with an army which cau lie used in maintaining fraudu lent State Governments. ” The Brinkley Case. The case of Brinkley, the wife murderer of Newnan, has been in the eourts for Mveralyears. The 13th of May, 1874, was the fatal day which told the sad story that he had plunged the deadly weapon to the bcart’a vitals of his poor, deserted, unfortunate wife. In the investigation of this case the utir law on the subject of murder has been carefully searched, and that of in sanity o far as being an excuse for crime has beeu diligently aud perseveringly in quired iuto. He was convicted by a jury of twelve men; appealed to the Supreme court, which ha* recently affirmed the judgment of the court below. “Great research, unlimited labor, and the most consummate powers of advocacy have been devoted to the purpose of aving this man from the extreme penalty the law. AH that family pride arm affection, money and influence could do to secure mitigation and safety have been tried, but all have failed in tho presence of that stern spirit of justice that guards the peace of society, and punishes with out fear, favor or affection, tho-o who have broken the laws of God and man.” Wearo heartily glad that Chief Justice Warner has so clearly and emphatically determined the rule governing insanity as an excuse for crime, lie says: "Tito insanity which tho law recognises a- an excuse for crime must be such as de thrones reason and incapacitates an in dividual from distinguishing between right and wrong as to the const-quo ices of his own conduct." V\ ith this definition of insanity im print pd upon our law books, we tru.t the legal fraternity may have a hard time in tho future of endeavoring to shield their clients from the extreme penalty of an outraged und violated law, by crimos the most rascally, debased, and outrageous, perpetrated in our land. t , Mountain Meadows Massaor . One of the most horrible and inhuman massacres of human life we hove ever read, we find in t lie New York Hr rail of March 22d, 24th arid 2'>tli. This brutal outrage took place ar Mountain Meadows, Washington county, Utah Tfcrrit iry, Sep tember 16, 1657, in which 120 mi in, women und children, known as the Arkansas emigrant train passing through this ter ritory on their way to California, were butchered in cold blood by the Mormons and Indians After a lapse of neatly 20 years, one" of the prominent men in the horrid butchery was executed to pay the penally due I i diabolical deed, March 2-id lust, after having been indicted by the Grand Jury cf Beaver county, Utah Territory, K p tember 24, 1874. This man, John D. Lee, a Mormon bishop, declares in view of the solemnities of the grave, and tho fearful results ol eternity, that ho aeted hi - part under the instructions of Brigham Young, the great Mormon Ruler and prophet. The revelations he gives of the Mormon liiilh and practice, are astonishing and revolting to the meek and quiet spirit of Jesus Christ. We pretend not to say. that lie has told the truth in every resp-a t, but if the half be true, it is revolting to every well disposed mind, and on credit to that ela s ol' citizens Id and profess the Mormon faith. Out of the whole of this emigrant train there were only seventeen little children, too small and young to talk, that were spared- The orders from healquarters were to butcher every tmo that was able to talk. They wanted no one to survive that would be able to tell the sad tale of won, of that memorable day. This man, John D. Lee, was shot, as his choice to hanging, on the very spot where, nearly 20 years previously, he had perpetrated the, terrible bucthory, in full view of a cross that had been erected over the graves of his victims, bearing tho inscription: "Vengeance is mine, I will repay, saith the Lord.” These awful words stared the condemned man in the face, and told him plainly, that there was a God to fear as well as to love. This matter has caused quite a flutter in the Mormon camps, lest others of their number be found implicated in the sad affair. Aud wejl they may, for so true is ii that, “Murder will out,” and that other declaration of the wise man, “He sure your sin will find you out." The officers of the law are on the trail, and no doubt others of the guilty parties will rise to the surface, and ere long be brought to justice. John 1). Lee says he lias been scaled to eighteen women, throe of whom were sisters, and one of these eighteen was the mother of three of his wives. Ho says he was sealed to his n other-iu law for her soul’s salvation; and that he was the father of 64 children. Thus has the words of Solomon been verified, when he declares, "There is a way that seemoth right unto a man, but the end thereof is death.” Oh! How I Loved To the RUtor <\f The Gazette: About twenty-five years ago, the writer of this reminiscence was a youth of about seventeen, and wonderfully well grown for one so young; being about fire feet, t nr and a half inches high, weighing om hundred and twenty pounds. I was reared in the county of C., without any lutific a. help, and early iu life had a fondness for the fair sex. t - 1 intend to give you a short history ol my first love, and how I was saved from a terrible and miserable life. 1 tell di perately in love with one I considered most beautiful women the world ever produced, and I thought then, one of the best, ishe was about four feet high, of dark complexion, black hair and eyes, and weighed one hundred and nit at.v pom is, was of beautiful figure, though a lit tic hump-shouldered; was wonderfully high hreasted and the very picture of' good health. She wore a number nine shoe of the brogsn style, and I say it to iier honor, she always wore a pair of clean white stockings, that she was not a-humed of- Suffice it to say, she filled the i ” exactly, and I went lor her woi-m --silver-side would goto: a it'd-worm, iin. truth is, I was nut satisfied, unless I was in sight or hearing of tier, and I soon found that she was in the same predica ment, and of course we were together a great deal, and were as loving as twin squirrels. Thine- went on this way fora long time, an ii eon-iJered that we were acting foolish in li< dug m that style, so I pro posed a union. Somehow, or somehow el-o, she wits ice iii a very plea-ant humor that evening and -he* gave me quickly to undo:-talel ihut >lu: bad not the least distant idea 01-ueh u thing, but talked very kindly all the time, trying to change the subject. But it was of no use. 1 belonged to tho hong-on sort, und con stantly de ended the po-ition 1 had taken i saw after so long a time, that she was growing nervous, and seemed very ic.-t less. At length she sorter stiuiAtened herself and said, "I am afraid '‘ill not come to .-ee me again soon.’’ I did not understand her meaning, and asked her why she made that remark? She told me plainly, “that .-he was thinking that I wonld never leave.” This was a jaw-breaker. The thought sttuek me that it was about time for me to travel, and travel ( did with a ball about the "izc of a small mountain in my throat. Old how sad 1 felt. It ujed to nic that 1 was forever diivcn awuy front the para dise I loved, Pt weseler an outcast OB the dreary deserts of earth. 1 would walk a few paces, then stop to li-ten, expecting to hear her euii lie- back. But no sound disturbed the drow-y air, save that of the midnight owl iTTat be'gloom tin,' urrouftfed -niq.. more intense. I lie door wgsclosed, one fij* onfiabe window blinds weie fastened, and soon tlie last j ray of light tfiTTt emanated fYom that ; mansion was darkened. I -at down upon the root of a tree and looked heavenward. Tho stars were bright and beautiful. I tried to count, them to divert my mind from tlie mansion 1 had left, but it was of no UaC. Matil.fa Jane was written 1 the ffiee of JKery star, ami,sm i oumled by a cloud of gloom, I arose "l (lW bvCs traveled mi iii the direction of homo. Little thought. I, that day was breaking, i until my eyes behold the eastern horizon tinged with streaks of red, harbinger of approaching day. I got homo at last, and lay my weary body to rest: Sleep, nature’s great phy-iWnT soon re lieved my sorrowing, mind, and dr.-ams fcovilim.t my a.a.,up a :■ ■ - JBLI :, HU No a w 11 t itlir.l until in i)h fall of tint memorable ytar. Tiio old man, Matiida Jane’s father, had a corn shneking and I w;n npecially invited by the old man in I went, you hot. Never was a moital so glad of a olmuee. I know l would get to eat some of the j chicken pie which Matilda Jane hud cooked, and perhaps some of the cake mixed up with her own hand-. The flour for the shucking arrived, and we all mot at a huge corn-pile, and went to work in good earnest. It was m t long before the. old man came walking around with “black bettie,” a name in that day given to a bottle of whiskey, We all took a little for our stomach’s sake, and the hours rolled swiftly and pleasantly by. At a late hour in the night the corn was all shucked and housed, and supper an nounced- StiiiiO forty or fifty of ns gather ed around the table loaded with the good things of life. Matilda Jane wa there in the midst, tripping here and there as a sparrow. Sure enough the <ken pie was there; also the cakes. I>u m noticed that when .Matilda Jane started around with some thing good, ihal I was the first to try it. I ouuid lut understand ihis at first, as she had treated me so badly the last time we met. lint the smile that played over her beautiful face, told that all was right within. So I ventured to speak a word to her every chance I got. She would sorter linger around the back o up. chair to give ntc a chance, and 1 made use of it. I got done eating after so long a time, and turned around as though 1 was about to leave the table. Mali; la Jane cam. run ning aroung tome with a plate of cake. I did not feel like eati.e. my l bud sir; iued myself try At Wl-ry ihing she brought hr Hi. I took some ike and worried it down.
