How Gen. Topmbs Defended a Slave.
Many incidents are related illus
trating the mutual affection of mas
ter and slave in the south, before
the war. The Columbia State tells
of such a case.
A negro man, strong and healthy,
but getting gray from years, was on
trial for murder. He had killed an
other negro and had been lying in
;iail for some time, awaiting his trial.
The testimony against him was giv
en by other negroes, who witnessed
the killing. When the case was call
ed for trial by the presiding judge,
an old man rose, find in a voice deep
and low, but full of marked gentle
ness, said:
“Will your honor please mark me
for the defense?”
It was General Robert Toombs.
His face was wrinklend with age,
but it was large and strong, and the
lineB of intellect.made deeper wrink
les than those of age. His white
hair rolled back in curls from a
splendid brow. His form was large
and tall and straight, although his
movements were slow with the years.
His eyes still flashed as when he
stood in the senate chamber at
Washington.
The witnesses all
friendly toward the
his own statement he olaimed that
the killing was in self-defense.
General Toombs analyzed the tes
timony of the eye witnesses, and
then concluded thus:
“Your honor, please, and gentle
men of the jury: A few years ago
my only brother fell wounded on the
battlefield of Gettysburg. He lay
there bleeding to death, with no
friendly hand to help him. Shot and
shell were sweeping the earth all
about him. No friend could go to
him, no surgeon dared approach
him.
“My brother had a body servant,
who waited on him in camp. The
negro saw his master’s danger, and
straight out into that sheet of bat
tle and flame and death he went. A
piece of shell tore the flesh from his
breast, but on he went, and gather
ing my brother in his arms, the
blood of the man mingling with the
blood of his master, he bore him to
safety and life. Jim, open your col-
larl”
The prisoner rose and opened his
shirt in the front. On his breast the
jury saw the long, jagged scars
where the Bhell had torn its way.
“Jim’s skin may be black,” the
general continued, “he may be a ne
gro; bui the man who would do
what he did has a soul too white
ever to have killed a man except in
defense of his own life.
The jury agreed with him and
Jim was cleared.—Youth’s Compan
ion.
The latest ambition science is said
to. have fostered is the erection of an
umbrella over the recumbent form of
the Egyptian sphinx. Sand and rain
storms have begun to undermine the
figure, and, unless something is done
to prevent further damage, to threat
en its ruin. Science has demonstra
ted as ofteu as any other branch of
human learning how easy it’is to be
come absurd, and this last ebullition
is a peculiarly successful illustration
of this human weakness.
