SATIS FACTION W RANEETO. seemed prisoner. un lit 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.
