The Murder of Col. It. A. Alston.
On the first page of this paper will
he found, copied from the Atlanta Con
stitution, a long account of the murder
of Col. It. A. Alston, of which we pub
lished a short account las-t week. We
have read the testimony elicited by the
coroner’s investigation, which does not
materially change the facts as detailed
in the Constitution. The verdict of
the jury was “Wilful and premeditated
murder.”
This is one of the most horrible and
gastly murders we ever heard of, and
will result in great injury to Atlanta, to
Georgia and to the whole South. At
lanta has clothed herself in sack cloth
and ashes, and is contritely wiin ing
her hands over the affair. The North,
with her prisons full of murderers and
assassins, is gloating over it as a legiti
mate result of our “peculiar civiliza
tion.”
Murders have been committed in all
ages of the world, everywhere, and in
all grades of society. The first murder
was committed when man was fresh
from the hands of his Creator, and was
a fratricide ; Moses slew an Egyptian;
imperial Cmsar was assassinated iu
Rome’s senate chamber. Thousands of
murd°rs have been committed since,
and so it will be as long as man’s na
ture remains as it is. Murders among
the white beople of the South are us
ually committed in open day, in the
heat of passion and in revenge for real
or fancied injuries. Iu the North, they
are usually committed for money, for
the concealment of other crimes and for
the gratification of fiendish lusts. In
the South, the weapon is usually a gun
or pistol; in the North it is poison and
the midnight dagger or bludgeon. Men
are usually the victims in the South ;
women and children suffer, as well, in
the North. There were four murderers
hung iu the North, last Friday : one
in Boston, for killing his wife; one in
New Hampshire, for killing a woman ;
one in Vermont, for killing a man, and
the other in Colorado, for killing a man
to get possession of his wife and estate.
There is a man on trial, in Boston, for
killing his father ; a wealthy and prom
inent man in New York for killing his
wife ; a woman just convicted in Con
necticut of poisoning her husband ; an
other woman in prison, in the same
state, for killing an old man and trying
to sell his body to a medical college for
dissection; a prominent citizen ot
Philadelphia has just been hung for
killing a poor man iu order to get the
insurance on his life. Yet, the northern
people are lifting up their hands in holy
horror over the recent tragedy in At
lanta, and declaring that life is un
safe in the South. Of the two “civil
izations” we rather think we would pre
fer - that of the gun and pistol to that
of the poison and dagger.
But, the recent tragedy in Atlanta,
in the manner and circumstances of its
conception and execution, is really
something startlingly exceptional and
peculiar in the annals of crime. Threats
of murder were loudly, openly, boldly
and defiantly made in the middle of a
bright day, right in the very heart of a
great city full of policemen, and other
officers of the law, and, more than three
hours aftewards, deliberately executed
in the very capitol of the state in the
immediate presence and right before
the eyes of four able bodied men. The
threats were loud, they were often re
peated to many persons ; they were told
by the unfortunate victim, who was
fleeing and hiding from the infuriated
demon, that was roaring and howling
for his blood, to many friends, among
them the Chief Magistrate and Execu
tive officer of the state. A dreadful
family Fate, in the form of a violent
death booted and spurred was pursuing
the devoted victim through the crowd
ed streets ; though known to be brave
and chivalrous, he tried to avoid a diffi
culty ; he asked for the protection of
the law, at the hands of his friends, and
got—a bullet through the brain, and—
a magnificent funeral ! No hand was
raised for his protection, and he was ad
vised against the only surely effectual
means he could have taken to defend
himself. The Chief Magistrate did,
when too late, send a man to try to
stop the difficulty. The police were,
possibly, not informed or summoned,
but why not ? No doubt Col. Alston de
pended upon his friends to interfere and
protect him, or he would have taken
more cffieetive means to protect himself.
He would not otherwise have sat in his
chair and looked quietly on at the de
liberate preparations for his murder.
But the Constitution says there seems
to be a strong disposition to blame
somebody for this murder, and we will
desist.
The Constitution, in its sorrow over
the terrible tragedy, is preaching ser
mons on the sin of carrying concealed
weapons; able sermons but not suited
to the text. The murder did not arise
from the carrying of concealed weapons:
both parties armed themselves after the
fuss commenced, and had ample time
and opportunity to do so. The argu
ment of the case wou'd seem to be on
the other side. If the officers of the
law can not or will not protect a man
under the stated circumstances he had
better be allowed to protect himself.
The practical lesson that seems to us
to be fairly dedueible from this sad oc
currence, is that of the rigid enforce
ment of the law, both for the preven
tion and punishment of crime. The
North charges that crime, especially
murder in high society, is not punished
as it should be in the South ; and it is
on this point, if any, that we are vul
nerable. Murderers are too often al
lowed to go unpunished, or inadequate
ly punished, sepeeiaily is this case if
they have plenty of money. We believe
that our absurd jury laws are much to
blame for this. Men intelligent enough
to form an opinion on a given statement
of facts are excluded, and the usual
jury in a murder trial is a sight over
which angels might either weep or
laugh as they felt disposed. Avery
little cash would often buy the whole
lot, but it is only necessary to buy one
to defeat the ends of justice. We are
often asked who Cox is, and how much
money he has, in a way to indicate a
prevalent belief that the future integri
ty of his neck hinges largely upon the
length of his purse.
The trial, we presume, will take place
soon, and may strict, exact and impar
tial justice prevail.
Congress.
The forty-sixth Congress of the
United States met in extra session last
Tuesday. The Democrats, for the first
time since the war, have a majority in
both Houses. The war that was waged
last session between the two Houses
will now be between Congress and the
President. It is supposed that the
Democrats will pass bills repealing the
laws to which they object, and which
they tried to repeal last session, and
submit them to the President, If he
vetoes them, they will attach them to
the yet unpassed appropriation bills and
submit them again. If they fail to
starve Hays into a surrender then—we
don’t know what they will do.
Rndall, of Pensylvania, Democrat,
was re-elected speaker on first ballot.
The vote stood Randall 144 ; Garfield
125; Wright 13; Kelley I;—necessa
ry to elect 142. Dr, Harrison, form
erly of Atlanta, was elected Chap
lain.
Cox.—Atlanta Post says Captain
Ed. Cox is recoverigg from his wounds
as rapidly as could he expected. His
wife and sisters are allowed to stay with
him in jail. Not one jot of extenuating
testimony has transpired in all the
evidence which has been printed con
cerning this most unjustifiable homicide.
What if the unfortunate man recovers.
Horrible dreams and midnight spectres
must haunt his couch forever, to say
nothing of consuming dread of what
now appears must be the inevitable
ruling of a violated law.

|| This important organ weighs hut about three
pounds, and all the blood in a living person (about
three gallons) passes through it at least once every
half hour, to nave the Liie and other impurities
m strained or filtered from it. Bile is the natural
m.<| purgative of the bowels, and if the Liver becomes
po| .crpid it is not se-parated from the blood, but car-
ried through the veins to all parts of the system,
fH and in trying to escape through the pores of the
Hskin, causes it to turn yellow or a dirty brown
color. The stomach becomes diseased, and Dys-
M pepsia, Indigestion, Constipation, Headache, Bili
■*. ous ness, Jaundice, Chills, Malarial Fevers, Files,
Sick and Sour Stomach, and general debility fol-
N* low. Mekhell's Hedatinf., the great vegetable
discovery for torpidity, causes the- Liver to throw
off from one to two ounces of bile each time the
Pd blood passes through it, as long as there is an ex
.. cess of I Je; and the effect of even a few doses
Pj upon yellow complexion or a brown dirty looking
k skin, will astonish all who try it—they being the
S first symptoms to disappear. The cure of all bili
ous diseases and Liver complaint fs made certain
by taking llbpatinr in accordarxc with directions.
Headache is generally cured in twenty minutes,
and no disease that arises from the Liver can exist

CELEBRATED
LIVER PILLS,
FOR THE CURE OF
Hepatitis, or Liver Complaint,
DYSPEI'SIA AND SICK HEADACHE.
Symptoms of a Diseased Liver.
DA IN in the right side, under the
1 ed ge of the ribs, increases on nr
sure; sometimes the pain is in the left
side; the patient is rarely able to lie
on the left side; sometimes the pain i s
felt under the shoulder blade and it
frequently extends to the top of the
shoulder, and is sometimes mistaken
for rheumatism in the arm qj
stomach is affected with loss of anJ
Ute and sickness; the bowels in gen
eral are costive, sometimes alternative
with lax; the head is troubled with
patn, accompanied with a dull, heavy
sensation in the back part. There is
generally a considerable loss of mem
ory, accompanied with a painful sen
sation of having left undone some
thing which ought to have been done
A slight, dry cough is sometimes an
attendant. Ihe patient complains of
weariness and debility; he is easily
startled, his feet are cold or burning
and he complains of a prickly sensa
tion of the skin; his spirits are Inv
alid although he is satisfied that exc-’
cise would be beneficial to him, yet
he can scarcely summon up fortitude
enough to try it. In fact, he distrusts
every remedy. Several of the above
symptoms attend the disease, but cases
have occurred where few of them ex
isted, yet examination of the body,
after death, has shown the livek to
have been extensively deranged.

AGUE AND FEVER.
Dr. C. McLane’s Liver Pills, in
cases of Ague and Fever, when
taken with Quinine, are productive of
the most happy results. No better
cathartic can be used, preparatory to,
or after taking Quinine. We would
advise all who arc afflicted with this
disease to give them a fair trial.
For all bilious derangements, and as
a simple purgative, they are unequaled.
BEWARE OF’ IMITATIONS.
The genuine arc never sugar coated.
Every box has a red wax seal on the lid,
with the impression Dk. McLane’s Livek
Pills.
The genuine Mcl.ane’s I.rvF.R Pills bear
he signatures of C. McLane and Fleming
Bros, on the wrappers.
Insist upon having the genuint Dr. C.
.McLane’s Livek. Pills, prepared by Flem
ing Bros., of Pittsburgh, l’a., the market being
full of imitations of the name McLane,
spelled differently but same pronunciation.
THE SUN FOR 1879.
The Sun will be printed every day during
the year to cotnr. Its purpose and method
will be the same as in the past: To present
all t .e news io a readable shape, and to tell
the truth thouah the heavens fall.
The Son has been, is, and wil continue
to be independent of everybody and every
thing save*the Truth and its own convictions
of duty. That is the only policy which an
honest newspaper need have. That is the
policy which has won tor this newspaper,
the confidence and friendship tf a wider
constituency Man was ever enjoyed by any
other American Journal.
The Sun is the newspaper for the people.
It is not for the rich man Against the poor,
or for the poor man against the rich mao,
but it seeks to do equal justice to all inter
ests in the cnnimunity It i uot the orgaQ
Ol any person, class sect or party There
need be no myateiy about its loves and hates
It is lor the honest man against the rogues
every time. It is for the honest Democrat
as against the dishonest Republican, and for
the honest Republicnn as against the dis
honest democrat It does cot take its cue
from the utterances of any politician or po
litical organization. It gives its support un
reservedly when men or measu esare ioj
agreement with the Constitution and vit I
ilie principles upon which the Republic wasl
founded for ihe people. Whenever ®|
Constitution and constitutional prmcip l
are violated, as in the outrageous conepuaen
of 1876, by which a man not elected wisj
placed in the offic*, ,he,De |

That is the Sun‘ idea ot independence. I
