Oh, no; I saw Oen. Jackson and Mr.

'Stand np William n. Steele. I think
the jury aoted wiih fairnecs and jtutlce in
rendering a verdtot of gnilty against
yon. Bat while I thluk you 010 right
eously oonvioted I em Borry for yon,
and if I oonld consult my own inclination
as a unit), lajrlug aside the officer, and for
getting the duty I owe the public, I should
ho very glad to sao jon snd those
near end dear to you relieved of
tho mortification aud pain which your sen
tence will nroessary impose on yon und
them. Yon are a youug man, and a yonng
man rif nrtoJ annMtrniint '. YOU are but tWOQ-
ty-one years old. Yon have, no donbt, a
wife, who liko moat of the wivea of our ex-
oellent Georgia termers, ia a faithful and
nffeationate aife. I remimoer the feelings
of my own yonng manhood, when I wag
abont yonr age, and can well appreciate
wbat a terrible blow it wooll hevo been to
me, wbeu beginning the straggle ot lit* if
I should have been sentenced to a term of
imprisonment and flood for a violation of
the laws of that country to which I owed a
patriotic allegianae aud obedieuce to its
aws Tbe laws are made with uniform
severity for nil, hut itie true that lu many
inatanocs tbo laws whlob are made equally
for a 1 bear with far gnator severity on ona
man than they do on another, although
they may both have committed
tbe same crime. Take a Rtnlloman, or a
man of good family aud oonetgu him to tbo
chain-gang’ for an offenie which he may
bavo committed, and msnaolo him along-
•Ido ot a bratal individual of tho oriminal
olaes, and the pnnlshment ot tho gontlc-
man is infinitely more severe than on the
professional criminal. It is for that rt aaon
that the courts ate vested w ith a large dis
cretion in assea-iog tbe amount of punlah-
ment which par lea convicted of crime mint
bear. Now, tu the enfotot ment of tbe in
ternal revenue laws this oonrt feels that it
has never been severe, so far aa it is able to
remember. The highest penalty ever im
posed in this district was on a notorious
violator, who might ho oalled a professional
criminal, aud that term waa six months,
about one-fourth ot Iho time that might
h.ve been imposed by the law. I have pur
sued that policy beoease I felt that it waa
tho certainly <f eonvlellon moro
than the severity of the punishment wb’ch
would tend to deter men from violations ef
the law. Thl. Is yonr lint offenco and I
■hall not Impose snob a severe penally
npon yon. I trust that this will be a lesion
to yon, that you will not waste your yontb,
which ia tbo brightest, bappieei and most
enjoyable part of life, in the cimmlseion of
enmea against tbe lsws of yonr ooantry.
The times are always good when wo aro
yonng, and it is for that reason that old
men look bock npon tbo daja ot their youth
and in comparing them with tbo presont
times say times ere not liko they usod to
be. Do not waBto tho days of yonr
yontb ln crime and when yon
nave served ont the time ot punishment tbs
conit places npon you, go bsok and engege
in honest industry with an upright deter-
minatlon to redeem yonrsett snd show yonr
good grandfather and yonr father that there
is 11111 hope for yon. Ths oonrt will give
yon a place of repentance and *n opportu
nity to redeem yonrteif and it may be pos-
•ible not compel yon to serve all year sen
tence if it heats yon have oomported your
self properly while in jail. It is adjndgsd
by tbe coart that you be Imprisoned in tbe
common jail of Bibb oonnty for tbe (nil term
ot two months and pay a fine of 000 hun
dred dollar*.
