G WIXXETT HERALD. T. M PEEPLES, EDITOR EDITORIAL BREVITIES Louisville, fra., had] a slight earth quake last Saturday. The prospect for a little scrim - age over in Europe is improving. Col. Volney Spaulding, a promi nent citizen of Atlanta, died last week. Tne Fair begins in Macon next Monday and will continue all the week, The Presiden. has made six hun dred changes in Post Masters since his inauguration. 1/ is now stated that the Geor gia Midland will be built from Col umbus to Griffin and A/adison. The time honored custom ox pie seating chairmen of committees with gold headed canes, seems to have been|dulv observed by the last Legislature. Young’s hotel at Tallulah Falls was burned last Friday. It was a good ouilding and elegantly fur nished. The loss will amount to $15,100, with no insurance, The Legislature passed a bill making it a penal offense to sell pools or futures. This has creat ed considerable stir iu Atlanta, where the business was extensive ly car lied on. Sam iMnal! has returned from his trip to Missouri. He is now in Atlanta and is lionized by his old acquaintances there, Munhall and Bam Jones are the only men ahead of him, and Sam is gaming on them. Contributions are coming in from all sections of the country to build a monument to Hon. Alex H Stephens. SIOO was recently sent in from the National Publish ing Co., of Philadelphia. John Keily gave SSO. Prussia has determined that the little principalities lying around in Southern Europe shall keep the peace, and she will enforce it like a big dog stops a fight between two fioe, by faking them by tne nape of the neck and shaking them good. Tae only hope of Mahone and Wise is ,o carry the entire negro vote with money. Frantic appeals have been sent North for help and it is stated that a considera ble Bum has been forwarded to them from New York and Penns sylvania. The Legislature adjourned last Thursday, alter a continuous see* siou of ote bnndred days, besides their last fall session. It is gen erally agreed truth in and out of the Legislature, that there has been less business of an important character disposed of than during any session in twenty years. i/enry W. Shaw, so well known by his humorous writings as Josh Billings, is dead. Ha was the most witty writer of this century, and frequently condensed more true philosophy into oue sentence than many wi iters of distinction can do in ten pages. He was not only a successful writer, but made money rapidly as a lecturer. Fulton county Court House is emphatically a Court House. There is a double barreled Su perior Court In session, one pre sided over by Judgs Clark and the other by Jndge Hammons, then there is a City Court, and a Court of Ordinary. Tbe Courty Commis sioners have sittings occasionally and Cicero Strong and Lovick Thomas hold daily levee*. Gen Lee’' campaign in Virginia reminds us cf Wade Hampton s campaign in South Carolina, when he redeemed the Stat“. He goes from Coart Ha use to Court House, riding horse back, on the same sad dleGenl. R. E Lee rode during ihe war, with a large escort of mounted men, and frequently a number of ladies. They ride to a town and hold their meetinr when a new cavalcade is formed, and they move on to the next ap pointment. The people are end u siastic everywhere he goes, and ral ly around him to shake hands with the gallant chieftain. It is now stated that Nellie Grant, the only (laughter of Presi dent Grant, is about to sue for a divorce from her husband, Alger non Sarioris. He is a brutish sort of cockney, who married Nellie be cause she was the President’s daughter. American girls who, instead of marrying American boys, who know how to treat a wife, take after every titled for eigner who strolls through the country hunting a fortune, may ex pact such treatment at the hands of tneir husbands, and they get but little sympathy from the pub lic. THE RESULT IN OHIO. The Republicans have swept the lield in Ohio The exact majority is not yet reported, and it makes little difference as to the figures, as the cutire State ticket is elect I ed and they have a majority of the I Legislature. We had hoped but hardly expected that the Demo crats would carry the State. It is essentially a Republican State, in every national election since the wax - xtey have carried it. It is true that in State elections, when local issues largely controlled the vote, the Democrats have pucceed ed in carrying ffceir ticket occasion ail/. In this contest every means known to corrupt political manage ment were resorted to, as the stake was not only the State Govs ernment, but the election of a Sen ator to succceed John Sterman, the most astute political wire-work er of xhe West. He is as greaX a captain in political maneuvering as his brother was a military com mander, and as he regarded his election to the Senate as a neces sary step to secure the nom iia lion for the Presidency in tne next election, all the energy, tac ti cs, as well as a good supply of “boodle,” was utilized to secure the victory. He opened the campaign by ap pealing to the passions ana preju dice of the people. He arrayed the South as still hugging rebell ion to their bosoms, and by flaunt ing the bloody shirt for all it was worth. It is stated that there are twenty or tl irty thousand LSgro voteis in that State, the last one of whom doubtless were controll ed by the Republicans. This vote was sufficient to insure them suc cess, as they hold the balance of power, About the only result that the country feels any special interest in, is that a vindictive partizan, an unscrupulous agitator, and a crafty political manager has se cured another lease of six year? in the Senate. HANGING IN WALTON. On last Friday, Bill McGatr ghey was hanged in Monroe for the murder of his wife on the 12th of last February. He knocked her down with an axe ani cat her throat with a razor. He was con victed of murder without recom mendation by'the jury, and sen tenced to be tiuog at the fall term of the conrt. We copy the following account of the execution from the Consti tion ; A large crowd met him at tbe depot. He came from the cars smoakiog a cigar and spoke cheer fully to everyone he knew. BACK IN .JAIL. At the jail door he stodped and said \ “My Lord, have 1 got to stay in that place all night and tight lice by myself,” He seii< sevaral messages at once to B, S. Walker to come to the jail to see him. When he went Bill asked him in the most imploring manner to telegraph Mars Henry, (meaning Governor Mcl >anie!,) to give him a few more days. When told this would do no good he seemed to give up and asked Mr, Walker to send wotd to his sister, who lives in Gaines ville, to come to his hanging and take his body away and not let the doetors get him. He said he had rather the buzzards would get him than for the doctors to cut him up. Quite a number cf colord people called to see bim during the evens ing, to all of whom he said he was ready to die; that his sins had all been forgiven, and warned them to do better He usked to see the rope with which he was to be hung- he examined it closely and said he thought it would hold him. He said he didn’t want any failure in the work, but wanted to get through with it quick ? He ate a nearty dinner, supper ana brekfast, and siept well all night ON THE GALLOWS. By eight o’clock the town began to fill with people from all the sur rounding comities, and by ten o’clock the streets looked like a fourth of July in Atlanta. The train from Gainesville came in at nine o’clock crowded with men whose shou*s as the train moved through the streets, could hive been heard for a mile. Promptly at half past eleven the Walton Guards marched from their armory with shining bayonets and proceed ed to the jail- In a few moroeeis the long procession began to move. The prisoner rode in a spring wagon, riding on hiscoflin. He was securely tied and Deputy Sheriff Knight sat at his back. Such a surging mass of humanity as followed the wagon is rarely seen. Thiee times within the las/ three years Mt.Albetr Her ring, who owns the team, has tak en crimnals to the same gallows in the same wagon and with the same horses. The gallows Is sit uated in the northern suburbs of the town, and is well boxed up by a high plank enclosure twenty five feet high. It is impossible to peep through as every crack has been'eecurely stopped. McGangh ey had but little <o say on way to gallows, telling every one he was ready, A-t the gallows he stood up in the’ wagon, showing not the least signs of fear. He spoke in a rambling manner. “I want you all to meat me In heaven. Raise your children right. Never rnairy a base wcmati. : You see what one has brought me too. Be sure the woman loves you before you marry her. God has parnoned my sins. I am ready and willing to die. A colored minister proyed and they sang the hymn “Why Should IdieT’’ Tee prisoner joined iu the song and his voice was heard above all others. He got out of the wagon and climbed the scaffold without any help. HE GOES DOWN’. Ho said nothing after the rope was placed around his neck, ex cept ; “That is a good rope. I am ready.” Deputy Sheriff Knight pulled the trap aud the prisoner fell sev en feet aud four inches. He was pronounced dead in twenty min utes by several physicians who were present His body was giv en to the coroner, who turned it over to the brother in-law, Four thousand people were ia town, one third women. Apple wagons from beyond the Blue Ridge came to the hanging. New York and Virginia will be the rext battle flel Is of the gieat political pai ties. In the forner State, Gov. Hill is the Democratic nominee and Ira Daveoport is the Republican standard beaier The race will be hotly contested, and the Republicans have succeeded in whipping back into line, that portion of their paity who split oft' last fall and did valiant service for Cleveland. If the State goes Republican, it will be chargeable 10 the Administration, who left in office in that State a large num ber of Republicans, who are using tl ir official positions to throttle the Democracy. Perhaps a defeat there will open the eyes of the President to the fact that it is poor generalship t o supply your enemy with tho munitions of war. In Virginia ’.hebnttle is red hot, Mahone is making his dying strug gle for power. He feels that if the State goes Democratic, and Genl. Lee is elected Governor; with a majority in the Legislature, that there is no hope for him in the future. He is already ostrax cised by the best people of the State. Nothing but his money and the accidental power secured by holding office, is all that main tains him even a respectable stand ing. With this gone, he will drop into oblivion like a pebble into a pit. No man who turns traitor to his own people and seeks to betray the confidence of those who have trusted him, can expect anything but that these people will “laugh at his calamity ami mock .vhen his fear cometh.” Dr Hawthorne, of Atlanta, the great Baptise preacher of Georgia, thus closed his sermon last Sun-, day ; “Two hundred thousand human beings go down every year to tbe darkness and horrors of tbs diunk ard’s hell, who but for tne dogger ies woul d have lived soberly and prosperously. In the face of su ch facts, who doubts that it would not be jusi and right befoie God for us to vote these dens of dam nation out of existence. There is not an intelligent matt within tne precincts of this broad land who is in doubt abont the matter. But if there was no mightier motive to move men thin a simple conv ction of right and duty I should have uo hope of seeing these infernal agencies put down. There are a thousand men in this city who will vote on the side of doggery, and the drunkard, who are deeply convinced of iheir wrong, as Judas was when he sold his master for thiriv pieces of silver Bui show me a man in whose heart the love of Christ is the regnant passion. Show me the man who day by day looks up iutc the face of his Re deemer and says, “Thou knowest all /bing , and Thou kuowes: that I love The*,’’ and I will show you one who is against this neemsed traffic with every drop of blood in his body. My friends, if (bat name which is above every other name, be written on the fleshy fab let of your heart, you are not standing to day on thesideofhis foes. Nor are you trying to be neu'ral. You are where you think truth, and right, and purity, and God are. You glory in being wheie the contest is fiercest, and the dangers thickest. Yon covet uo higher privilege and no higher honor than to suffer with Christ.” STATE ELECTIONS Virginia will elect on Tuesday, November 3d, governor, lieuten ant governor, attorney general and legislature; Maryland will elect on Tueedab* November 3d, comptroller and clerk of the court of appeals.
