(Joinuwnwrulth refers rt< Jack Drown as “0110 of tie* finest [gentlemen in Georgia, barring his political vagaries. " This is news to all Georgians. What has Jack done t<> (muse all of this? 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. Till ’ DAILY TIMES. .1 FWTT.CK!

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.

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.

CAKS AlllHM. 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! Tho Now York Tribune ou the Situation. 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. Hjwclal to Daily Tlvks, by S. A 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. Strayed or Stolen, \ WHITE HEIFER, smartly spotted with red—no other color—about two years old.
