Rev. Jam** A. Dixon,of Mew Albany,
Indiana, who recently created such an

suicide at the Peabody hotel, is thus de
scribed in a Memphis dispatch: “He is
rhe celebrated Dr. J. A. Dixon, once pas
tor in Augusta, Ga., who created such a
furore as an eloquent lecturer, there and
in Atlanta almost three years ago. Drop
ping into serious peril of the penitentiary
at that city, he resigned under a very
deep cloud and moved to Ohio, where lie
hung out his shingle as a lawyer. Very
soon thereafter he quit the Baptists and
joined the Methodists and preached for
them. But his evil genius never forsook
him, and he fell into disgrace and was
suspended. Next he joined what is known
as the Christian (Campbellite) church,
and became pastor of one of their church
es at New Albany, Ind. He arrived in
Memphis on the 18th ult., taking rooms
at tiie Peabody hotel, where it was he at
tempted self-destruction. In his room, ly
ing on the bureau, were found several
letters.”
The design for the new five dollar
“Garrard bonds” is exceedingly tasty,
and is thus described: “The lettering on
the face is chaste and not at all bold. The
face recites the character and issuance of
the bond in pursuance of law. Two vig
nettes adorn either end of the face, one
of which, the first, will contain the por
trait of a very young and handsome Geor
gian, for whom the"treasurer has special
affection—his grandson—while the other
will have the coat of arms of the State.
The scroll and lathe-work in the corners
and around the border will be very hand
some, and the tinted background, with
the words ‘five dollars,’ will be in perfect
harmony. The reverse side of bond will
be enclosed with border and corner pieces,
and will contain in full the act of the
general assembly authorizing the issu
ance of this series of bonds. The coupons
are diminutive postage-stumpy affairs,
ranging in a line along the bottom of the
bond. Thev arc lilliputian due-bills,
which the big bill seems to hover over as
a hen would over her chickens. Treas
urer Renfroe, to avoid the ragged look
which severing the coupons would give
the bonds, has endeavored to so arrange
as to have them on the end where they
might be clipped the full width of the
bond, but is not satisfied, as yet, with
his plan. Tbe bonds will soon be com
eted.”
A TALK WITH MURPHY.
What lie thinks about Senator B. H. Hill’s
Motives.
On yesterday a reporter of the Consti
tution met Mr. J. W. Murphy in the
Kimball house, and approached lnm tor
the pu.ipose of getting some information
upon the subject of the disagreement be
tween himself and Mr. Hill. ihe fol
lowing conversation took place:
Reporter—Do you intend, Mr. Mur
phy, to have any answer to Mr. Hill s in
terview' in the Baltimore Gazette ?
Mr. Murphy—No sir, I do not. Ihe
issues between myself and Mr. Hill are
fairly and squarely made before the leg
islature and the courts of the country,
and if 1 am successful before these tribu
nals, liis interviews will amount to noth
ing. I shall await patiently the result
there, relying confidently upon the jos
tice of my cause to vindicate my motives
and conduct.
Reporter—But are you not afraid that
his articles will do you injury before the
legislature? , , .
Mr. Murphy—Not at all; for the legis
lature has all the testimony before it, and
each member will have ample to read it
and understand it before the meeting in
July, and I have full co fidenee that the
legislature is willing to lo me, though an
humble man, that justice which the laws
of the State vouchsafe to every citizen. 1
am not troubled in the least as to the final
result.
Reporter—Have you no fear that these
publications of Mr. Hill will so bias pub
lic opinion as to injure you in the courts ?
Mr. Murphy—No sir, Ido not think
they can. Our judges and jurors are up
right, intelligent men, and they will be
governed solely by the testimony and the
law, and if either the jury or the court
should be led into error, w hy the supreme
court will, as It does in all cases, correct
them. So you see new spa ,er articles
will have little or nothing to do with the
ease, either before the legislature or the
courts. Nothing hut the law and the
testimony will control before either of
these tribunals, and i propose tor the
present at least, to rest my case solely
upon the law and testimony.
Reporter—But are you not afraid that
Mr. Hill, by these ‘ publications, will
affect your 'standing throughout the
State?
Mr. Murphy—No sir, 1 am not; for it
is plain that Mr. Hill is controlled now
by passion, and his abuse, for this reason,
w ill be harmlejs, for everyone can see
that instead of being my prosecutor, as
he set out to be, he is now my perse
cutor. Then, too, you remember that
good old Job when, in an anoying con
troversy, exclaimed, “Oh, that mine ad
versary had written a book!” A hint to
the wise is sufficient. If 1 write at all,
now is not the time, so you may say that
as the issue between us is in the courts
and before the legislature, two compe
tent tribunals, I propose to let them set
tle it. One ounce of testimony is worth
a pound of abuse.
Ninety-six murderers expiated their
crimes on the gallows in the t nited
States during the past year, an increase
of thirteen compared with the previous
year. Forty-one were white, fifty-two
colored, two*lndian* and one Chinaman.
There were seven double executions, four
triple and two quadruple. Five were
hanged for outrage, four for wife-umrder
and one for fantieide. Not one woman
was hanged. Friday still continues the
favorite day for hanging, seventy-having
tjiken place on that day; the largest
number were hanged in March, that
month having twenty-five executions.
Texas heads the list of States with 10
executions'; Louisiana, Alabama, 8;
South Carolina, 8: North < arolina, 6;
PenatylvAiiia, t>; Missouri, 5; Georgia,
5; Tennessee, 4: Illinois, 4; Arkansas,
4; California, 4; New York, 3; Ken
tucky, 2: Virginia, 2; Delaware. 2;
Ohio, 2; Mississippi, 2: Maryland, 2;
Massachusetts, 1.
The holders of some of the unrecog
nized bonds, which are yet undergoing
investigation, have filed a bill in the Fed
eral ( uenit Court of South Carolina to
restrain the State treasurer from paying
interest on bonds which have been recog
nized. The law under which the inves
tigation was made provided for the inter
est on the whole consolidated debt, the
rights of the unrecognized portion being
reserved and the money held in the treas
ury. In 1878 it was enacted that the in
terest on the recognized portion should
be paid of tbe fund held to await the de
cision on the unrecognized portion, and
the holders of the latter maintain that
this is a violation of their rights.
+ #
A bill will be introduced into tbe pres
ent Congress having for its object a re
presentation of minorities. It provides
that at the next appointment the States
shall be divided into districts electing ei
ther three or five representatives. Each
voter will be allowed to vote for two can
didates only, if tbe district is entitled to
three representatives. In case the dis
trict sends five representatives the voter
can vote for three of them. If a State
contains more than the required number
of districts, as at present constituted,
when tbe new districts are made up, the
odd district will elect as at present. This
also applies to States that will have less
than three districts.

The first call for the redemption of the
six per cent, bonds issued in 1867 has
been made. The amount called, is $lO,-
000,000. Thirty similar calls can be
made before all tbe consols of 1867 are
redeemed. The fact, however, that these
bonds are to be paid as fast as subscrip
tions to the four per cents will permit,
causes them to sell at a lower rate in the
stock market than the 10-40 sand the five
per cent, funded loan, and to bring but a
trifle more than a four-and-one-lmlf per
cents. Before the year is out the last
named class of bonds will probably bring
a higher price than tbe sixes of 1867.
They are not all Kearneyites in Cali
fornia. Col. Smart, an extensive of So
doma, opposed tbe anti-Chinese amend
ments to the proposed new constitution,
and said: “We, farmers and vitners,
want Chinamen for cooks and for ‘hew
ers of wood and drawers of water.’ V> e
have no person, more tidy in work, more
quickly instructed, nor more faithful to
their trust. Once domesticated, no ser
vants are more regretted at parting. Give
the average Chinaman a fair show, and
he will not be long in falling into our
ways.”
The Bayard family of Delaware has a
remarkable record of political service.
The present senator entered the senate in
1869. His father was his immediate pre
decessor, and occupied his seat for eight
years. His grandfather occupied it for
thirteen years, and an uncle was also for
many years a member of the same body.
