The recent decision of the Supreme
Court of the United States with re
gard to the laws passed by the Legis
latures of the several States, after
their secession from the Union, set
tles finally a question which was un
‘determined until this decision was
[announced. The principle affirmed
[in the judgment applies to the whole
irange of Confederate State legisla
tion. Below we give the rule as ex
pressed by Justice Strong:
“All the enactments of tin; <U‘J(U:Lo
[Legislatures in the insurrectionary
Slates during the war, which were not
hostile to tiie Union or to the author
ity of the General Government, and
which wore not in conflict with the
Constitution of the United States or
of the StalA*, have the same validity
as if they hmJ been enactments of le
gitimate Legislatures; and any other
doctrine than this would work great
unnecessary hardship upon the peo
ple of those States without any cor
responding benefit to the citizens of
other States, and without any advan
tage to the National Government."
Below we give tie* report, of the
Cincinnati Knqulm' of the speech of
“General” Hurlburt, of Illinois, on
Decoration Day. Hurlburt is a
rascal:
There is an extensive; disgust Mt
among the officers and soldiers of the
Union army in this city on account of
the shrieking bad taste, to call it by
no harsher name, which marked the
address of General Hurlburt, of Illi
nois, on Decoration Day, at Spring
Grove cemetery an address delivered
before the survivors and relatives of
those who fell in the Federal and
Confederate, armies and who were
t here decorating the graves. A sus
picion having got abroad that Hurl
burt was a fool, ho was waited upon,
as we understand, by a committee,
and requested to -diapo his address to
suit the changed condition of affairs,
In which there was a general frater
nization of ex-Fedora Is and Cqofeder
ates Instead of so doing he inflicted
upon the audience an old war stump
speech of ten years ago, filled with
the most bitter denunciations of the
Confederates, who were there by in
vitation of tiic soldiers of the Union.
No words can tell the mortification
of tiie latter, and when Hurlburt sat
down ho was not greeted with ap
plause. In noble contrast to his vio
lent and intemperate address was the
patriotic speech of Major 8. V. Reid,
pf the late Confederate army, whose
sentiments, > n their acceptation of the
results of the war and pledges of fu
ture devotion to the flag of the
Union, Were revived with uproarious
<'beers and acclamations.
The bridge crossing Jones’ Falls,
on Monument street, Baltimore, fell
with a loud crash yesterday morning,
wrecking four coal ears of the, North
ern Central Railroad, and carrying
three children down among the de
bris. The little ones made a most
miraculous escape, none being seri
ously injured. The accident was
caused bv the weight of the eoal ears.

Atlanta, June 1. At ono o'clock
to-day (Friday.) the sentence of the
; court requiring the execution of Al
fred Orange, colored, for the murder
of doe Mayfield, at West End, was
curried into effect. During the morn
ling Orange was visited by a number
of colored ministers, who prayed and
; talked with hita. When asked why
he was not more humble, he respond
ed : “What good would it do to bo
I humble?" Again when he was asked
| why he did not shed any tears, he ro
j plied, “What good would it do to
: shed tears?" He said that he killed
Mayfield, and did his duty in doing
; it, No argument of tho divines could
j change his opinion on that point,
i Early this morning he got a while
j man to write the following letter, dic
tating it himself:
IVarmi Dcmtix, OYeru-sboro, <la.:
Dear Father anp Mother, and Xis
-1 trrh Axn Brothers. This day I hid
I you adieu; kindred and friends like
wise the same. Don’t grieve after
me. If you knew what the Lord had
done for me, you would rather 1 would
go there to-day. Tell Miss Frances,
my old mistress, that 1 am very sorry
that I can’t get.to see her before Tam
i hung. Good-bye to everybody. ft<>
! I will close for this time. I expect to
be a dead man in four hours. I ex
pect to be slain under the gallows,
and I hope at this time to be asleep
ins a dead pig in the sunshine.
[Signed] Alfred Ora no e.
When urged to correct the last sen
! tenco, lie refused, stating that a dead
! pig would know nothing and so would
i he.
At I2::m o’clock i*. m. the eondemn
led man was led from his cell to the
; plaee of execution. H('walked with
firmness and deliberation, and exhib
ited not the least nervousness. After
singing ’Why should we start and
| fear to die," prayers were offered by
Rev. W. Finch, Rev. Frank Quarles
and Wilev Grant. During this time
Orange was sdf-composed and un
moved, and kept chewing his tobacco
i until the fatal cap was about to be
[placed on him. 11-* then leisurely
i threw the tobacco to one side. When
j asked if he had anything to say, he
replied, “Nothing except to say good
{ bye. I am about to be off; good-bye."
| The cap was adjusted, file trigger
j sprung, and the condemned man
j launched into eternity. The knot
j slipped to one aide, and Alfred Orange
! was strangulated.
Dr. John M. Johnson, who was ap
| pointed by Judge Hopkins to deter
! mine when death supervened, was
I present. Shortly after the fall, and
'at fifteen minutes past one o’clock,
i he declared Alfred Orange dead,
i Orange desired that his body should
| be sent to his parents, at Greensboro,
i The streets on all sides of the jail
were thronged with a mass of blacks
lat an early hour, aad towards noon
quite a number of whites appeared.
Kvery place likely to give a. promi
nent view of the spot was occupied,
| even to house-tops and chimneys,
| But few were admitted to the exeeu
| tion.

ISKVKIIIIY JOHNSON OWfOSIiS THE TUIIIU
TEItM.
New Yoiik, June 4. The Henthl
publishes a long letter from Reverdy
Johnson, dated Baltimore, In which
tho writer gives his opinion of the
President’s third term. Tho letter
says that what sacrifices, if any, the
President may have made in accept
ing tho first or second nomination
has nothing to do with his election
for a third term, and whatever abuse
he may have been subjected to dur
ing tlie time he has held the Presi
dency, is equally Irrelevant. The
Constitution does uot prohibit, and
the people are at liberty to elect to a
third term, but until tho time of Pres
ident Grant, none of his predecessors
who held office two terms gave tho
most distant hint of, a wish to accept
ofllec again, nor was it suggesoted.
The Idea of President Grant,
that tho safety of the country
may demand the re-election of the
President for a third term, Johnson
considers an idle conceit, having no
other support but tho most egregious
vanity. The question now agitating
the public mind is whether Grant
shall be elected to a third term. He
will not reooivo a vote in a single
State.
Tho President seems to regard it as
a mere matter of dollars and cents,
and Johnson infers that If the salary
the President now receives should be
secured to him ns a retiring pension,
he would gladly leave the office at
the end of the present term.
The Great Political Revolution!

THE DEMOCRACY TO TRIUMPH IN THE
NEXT PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION,
Special to the Times by 8. & A. Line.]
Nkw Youk, June 1. The Tribuiu : of
this morning editorially reviews the
present: political situation at some
length. It reviews the course of pol
ities since the last l’residential elec
tion, aud says there is no mistaking
the fact that, the present, situation is
that of u party dominant throughout
tho nation for fifteen years, retiring
from power and giving place to its
old opponents. Tlie Dcmocrat.ie par
ty is on the rising tide, and tlie indi
cations are that a political revolution
will he consummated in 187iinnd the
Democrats come into power in the
nation.
The Hepuldfean party may, how
ever. by its course in the next twelve
months turn tlie tide now setting
strongly against, it, reinstate itself in
public favor, and hold tho country
for at least another President ial term.
It depends upon the foresight, and
sagacity of tlie leaders in tlie differ
ent States. The people are waiting
to see which party does the work of
reform best.

The collieries that were stopped yes

A Negro Convicted of Eape and Sentenced
to 20 Years in the Penitentiary

Special to lb*: Times by H. k A. Line.]
Prriiv, Ga. June I. At the present
term of Houston Superior Court,
there came on for trial the case of
the State vs. Taltou Gilbert, charged
with rape. Gilbert is a negro about,
fifty years old, and his victim was a
negro child not quite eleven years
of age. The crime was committed in
this community on the night of the
24t hof last December. The evidence
was overwhelmingly convicting,
making one of the most shocking,
brutal, and atrocious eases of its
diameter on record. The jury re
mained out but a few minutes, re
turning with a verdict of guilty—
tempered, however, with a recommen
dation to the mercy of the court.
For this qualification, the prisoner
in tin: language of Judge Hill,
should feel himself under lasting ob
ligations to the efforts of his counsel,
Gen. Ell Warren, who defended him
as ably as tiie odds against Him
could admit of.
The prisoner was sentenced to-day
to twenty years at, hard labor in the
penitentiary, the extreme penalty ol
the law in such eases where the ac
cused is recommended to mercy.
Tiie counsel for the defense made a
motion for anew trial, which was
overruled. It is uncertain whether
or not the ease will lie taken to the
Supreme Court.
Houston Superior Court adjourned
at noon to-day to the regular term.
A heavy rain fell here yesterday,
about one o’clock p. si. The weather
now is beautiful, and an unusually
large grain crop is being harvested in
this county.

THE SUN.
DAILY AND WEEKLY FOR 1875.
Tho approach of tho Presidential election gives
unusual importance to tho events and develop
ments of 1873. Wo shall endeavor to describe
them fully, faithfully and fearlessly.
THE WEEKLY SUN has now attained a circula
tion of over eighty thousand copies. Its readers
are found in every Stato and Territory, and its
quality la well known to tho public. We shall
not only endeavor to keep it fully up to the old
standard, but to Improve and add to its variety
and power.
THE WEEKLY HUN will continue to be a thor
ough newspaper. All the news of the day will be
found iu it, condensed when unimportant, at
full length when of moment, ami always, we
trust, treated in a clear, interesting aud instruct
ive manner.
It is our aim t make the Weekly Hun the best
family newspaper in the world. It will he full ol'
entertaining and appropriate reading of every
sort, but will print nothing to offend the most
scrupulous and delicate taste. It will always
contain tho most interesting stories and ro
mances of the day, carefully selected and legibly
printed.
The Agricultural Department is a prominent
feature in tho Weekly Sun, and its articles Will
always bo found fresh anil useful to the termer.
Tho number of men independent in politics is
increasing, aud the Weekly Sun is their paper
especially. It belongs to no party, and obeys no
dictation, couteudiug for principle, and lor the
election of the best men. It exposes the corrup
tion that disgraces the country and threatens the
overthrow of republican institutions. It has no
fear of knaves, and seeks no flavors from their
supporters.
Tho markets of every kind and the fashions
art: regularly reported.
The price of the WEEKLY SUN is one dollar a
year for a sheet of eight juges, and fifty-six col
umns. As this barely pays tho expenses of paper
aud printing, we are uot able to make any dis
count or allow any premium to friends who may
make special efforts to extend its circulation.
Under the new law, which requires payment of
postage in advance, one dollar a year, with twenty
cents tho cost of prepaid postage added, is the
rate of subscription. It is not necessary to get
up a club in order to have the Weekly Hun at this
rate. Any one who sends one dollar and twenty
cents will get the paper, postpaid for ono year
We have no traveling agents.
