TRIAL OF JAMES KIL6ORE FOR MURDER.
Fine Speeches for Prosecution and Defense
AK K KMT OF A WIT A EM*.
(■ulKy ol* Murder, but Keeoiunteudcd to
M I'l’fj’.
On yesterday morninfe court mot nt tho
unusual hour, Judgo George F. Bartlett
presiding.
Richard Walker, eolorod, charged with
burglary in tho night, was arraigned. He
plead guilty to larceny from the house,
which plea was accepted by tho Stato, and
the prisoner was sentenced to twelve
months in the penitentiary.
Tho case of James Kilgore, charged with
the murder of L. F. Coulter, was called for
trial, ami both prosocution and defence an
nounced ready for trial.
THE PRISONER
was brought, handcuffed, into tho court
room, followed by his wife, a little child
about four years old, and a number of rel
atives. Ho is a man of about sixty years
of age. Ho looks, quite feeble. His hair
has evidently grown much whiter since he
was committed to jail, in January last.
He took a chair by Ids counsel, and rested
his head on his hand, looking steadily on
tho floor, a position which he maintained
during the whole trial. His child was
seated in his lap part of tho time. To the
indictment, tho prisoner plead
NOT GUILTY,
and the trial commenced. The defence
was represented by Ingram & Crawford,
and tho prosecution by Roland Russell,
Esq., and Solicitor W. A. Little. A jury
was obtained without difficulty. The fol
lowing jury was sworn in and tried the
case: W. F. Snider, John Mobaffey, J. M.
Ford, W. S. Do Wolf, J. H. Patrick, H. W.
Vorstillc, Robert Ware, W. D. Afiiiek, J. J.
Whittle, Daniel Dozier, George W. Rad
cliff and James W. Long.
Several members of this jury served on
the jury that found Alexander Pryor guilty
of voluntary manslaughter, on Monday.
The evidence was taken fully—some
eight or ten witnesses being examined. It
will bo remembered that tho killing took
place on Saturday night, January 23d, in
the store of C. 11. Newman, on the corner
of Front and Bridge streets.
Jesse Ryder, Coulter, and one or two
other witnesses were in the store talking,
when Kilgore came in. The party had
been drinking some. Kilgore, on coining
in, spoke to the party. He said something
to Ryder about going to Eufaula. Ryder
said he did not want to go. Kilgore made
some short reply. The evidence differs as
to whether Coulter or Kilgore spoke first.
Kilgore said to Coulter, “May be you don't
like it!” Coulter told him to go away.
Several remarks passed between them.
The evidence as to tho beginning of the
difficulty differs very widely. Jesse Ryder
swore that Coulter pushed Kilgore away
and told him to leave, when the latter
drew a knife and plunged it Into Coulter's
leftside. Henry Smith swore that Coul
ter struck Kilgore a considerable blow in
the face, and then tho latter struck at him.
This was a strong point in the case, and
the counsel dwelt on it at length. All the
witnesses agreed that Kilgore cut Coulter
immediately after the push or the blow—
whichever it may havo been. There was
no evidence of a previous difficulty be
tween the partios. In his statement the
prisoner denied having had any quarrel
with Coulter. It was in evidence that Kil
gore drew the knife from his pocket with
out opening it, and it was the opinion of
the witness that it was open while in his
pocket.
Coulter was about sixty years of age.
He was once a policeman in city. At
the time of his death he was a butcher
and lived in Brownoville, Ala. In ISO'.) he
shot a cotton buyer named Higgins, but
was never tried for it. Tho prisoner made
a living by fishing on the river. The evi
dence was very strong against tho pris
oner. The cross-examinations by counsel
for both sides were dose and severe. At
the close of the ovidenco the prisoner
made the following
STATEMENT.
* All that 1 remember is that I was there.
Don’t know bow I came there, i was talk
ing to Brown. Hoard something about a
trip to Eufaula, as stated by him. Do not
recollect swung Mr. Coulter at all. Recol
lect that someone lilt me in the face and 1
struck them. Don’t know that I had a
knifo iq my hand at all. I had a rut In my
coat mado by eomu onv in tho skirmish.
Don’t know who did it. Don’t know much
about it. If there had over been any hard
feeling: between me and that man, I never
knew it. Had known him a lon# time.
Prisoner said somethin# about what
Jesse Ityder said to him about #oin# to
Eufaula, and concluded.
Tho argument was then opened for the
State by Roland Russell, Eaq., who made
a sound speech. Reese Crawford, Esq.,
then spoke in behalf of the prisoner, and
presented the ease in its best light. He
was followed by Hon. Martin J. Crawford
for tho defence. He spoke at lon#th, and
dwelt upon every point in the testimony.
He presented the fact that Coulter struck
Kilgore a blow in the face in a very forci
ble manner; and urged it as a sufficient
cause to arouse a man’s anger and make
him do almost anythin#.
Tho speech lmd a marked effect upon
tho jury and all who heard it.
Solicitor W. A. Littlo concluded for the
SUite in a very fine speech. He put the
evidence in such a way as to make the
ease a deliberate, intentional murder. He
dwelt upon the Inconsistency and weak
ness of the evidence for the defense, and
made a most powerful appeal to the* jury
in the narao of justice. The speech was
complete and strong; it covered all the
ground of the ease, and was as good an
argument for the prosocution as could
have been made. It was regarded as tho
best of the many good speeches which
our efficient. Solicitor has made, and as
good as has been heard in our Court
room.
Judge Bartlett delivered a long and
complete charge to the jury. He clearly
defined murder, and manslaughter, and
justifiable homicide, and showed the dif
ference between them. The charge was
delivered in a most impressive manner
and was received by the jury with pro
found attention.
After the Judge concluded his charge,
the jury retired to make up their verdict.
ARREST OF A WITNESS.
As soon as the jury retired, Judge Bart
lett ordered tho arrest of Henry Smith,
witness for the State. In his ovidenco,
Smith stated that John Davis had offered
him SIOO to leave before the trial and not
appear as a witness. He also asked if
Davis had not offered him the same sum
to swear that Coulter struck Kilgore, a
severe blow. The witness denied this.
Davis and Smith were both arrested and
brought into Court. Tho Judge first re
quired a SSOO bond of Smith and a $250
bond of Davis to appear this morning and
answer any charges which might bo
preferred against them. He then changed
his decision as to Smith, aud examined
him as a witness against Davis. Smith
testified that Davis asked him if he
| wanted to go to Texas. Ho said he did,
| and Davis offered him 5100 In money to
! help him go, and told him that he could
get more.
The witness admitted that tho money
was offerod to him to prevent ids appear
ance as a witness.
Judge Martin Crawford asked him a few
questions as to why the money was offer
prod to him. No new facts were elicited.
Witness denied ever talking on the subject
in Georgia. Tho conservation he spoke of
was had in Girard. Tho witness told tho
Judge he was a stranger In tho city, and
could not give bond, but would appear
again this morning.
The Judge dismissed Smith, but requir
ed a $250 bond of Davis, for ids appear
i ance. We learn that Davis failed to give
| this, nnd was confined In jail.
Last night when the Judge announced
that he would hold Davis, tho latter said,
in an indifferent manner, “X had just os
soon sleep in jail to-night as not.”
Davis will bo brought up this morning
to answer for contempt of court or bribe
ry, or any other charge which may be
brought against him.
Tho court then took a reoofcs until the
Jury should bring in a verdict. The Judge
retired, and left orders with the Sheriff to
bring him word when tho jury came to a
verdict.
The jury retired about half-past thrive
o’clock, and at five o’clock they had ob- j
tainod a verdict. The Judge and Solicitor
wore sent for. When they arrived, the
jury came in. The crowd in tho court
room wits very large, and ail Boomed to lx* j
very much interested in the ease.
The Judge ordered the prisoner to stand
up, and the Solicitor read tho following
verdict :
We, tho jury, find the prisoner guilty of
murder, and recommend him to the mercy
of the court. H. W. Vekstille,
Foreman.
Tin* prisoner heard the* verdict without
a tremor or change of countenance. He
resumed his scat, and again leaned his
head on his hand and lookinJ down at the
floor, as he had during the trial.
Court then adjourned, and the prisoner
was carried back to jail, followed by his
wife, his little child, and Ids relatives.
THE LAW IN SUCH CASES.
A number of people wore endeavoring
to learn what would be the effect of the
recommendation of the jury. We have
endeavored to find that out, and submit
the law in tho case. Section 4323 of the
Revised Code lays down tin' law in the
following words:
“The punishment for murder shall be
death, but may be confinement in the Pen
itentiary for life in lie* following cases:
By sentence of the presiding Judge, if the
conviction is founded solely on circum
stantial evidence, or it' the jury trying the
traverse shall so recommend. In the for
mer case it is discretionary with the Judge
in the latter it is not.”
The Legislature in 1875 published tho
following as explanatory of the section
above quoted:
“Section 1. Bo it enacted by the General
Assembly, that whenever a jury, in a cap
ital case of homicide, shall find a verdict
of Guilty, with a recommendation of mer
cy instead of a recommendation of impris
onment for life, in cases where by law the
jury may make surfi recommendation,
such verdict shall be held to mean impris
onment for life. If, in any capital case of
homicide, the jury shall make any recom
mendation where not authorized by law to
make a recommendation of imprisonment
for lib*, the verdict shall be construed as if
made without any recommendation.”
Tims it will be seen that the Judge can
not commute tho sentence to imprison
ment for life, notwithstanding the recom
mendation, for the case was not one found
ed on circumstantial evidence. The Judge
will be forced to sentence him to be hung.
The various Supremo Court decisions on
this quarter, all say that tin* jury aro not
authorized to recommend, except when
the conviction is on circumstantial evi
dence, and the Judge cannot heed the rec
ommendation otherwise.
NOTE.
We are reliably informed that the jury
supposed that recommendation to mercy
would save the prisoner’s life and sqnd
himlto the penitentiary for life.
The jury is thought to have been unani
mous in their desire to recommend the
prisoner to mercy, and they all thought
such an act would save his life.
It is rumored that there will be an at
tempt to “poll” the jury this morning, if
it is not too lab*. If this is not done, anew
trial may be granted.

American Cyclopedia.
New Revised Edition.
Entirely rewritten by the ablest writers on every
subject. Printed from new type, and illus
trated with Several Thousand Engraving*
and Maps.
The work originally published under the title
of The Nkw American Cxclopjkdia was com
pleted in IHC3, since which time the wide circula
tion which it has attained in all ]*arti of the
United States, and the signal developments which
have taken place in every branch <>f science, lit
erature and art, have induced the editors and
publishers to submit it to an exact and thorough
revision, and to issue anew edition entitled The
American Cyclop.kdia.
Within the last ten years the progress of dis
covery in every department of knowledge has
made anew work of reference an imperative
want.
The movement of political affairs lias kept pace
with the discoveries of science, and their lruitful
application to the industrial and useful arts and
tiie convenience aud refinement of social life.
Great wars and consequent revolutions have oc
curred, involving national changes of peculiar
moment. The civil war of our own country,
which was at its height when the last volume ol
tiie old work appeared. has happily been ended,
aud anew course of commercial aud industrial
activity has been commenced.
Large accessions to our geographical knowl
edge have been made by the indefatigable ex
plorers of Africa.
The great political revolutions of the last de
cade, with the natural result of the lapse of time,
have brought into public view a multitude of new
men, whose names are in every one’s mouth, and
of whose lives every one is curious fco know the
particulars. Great battles have been fought and
important sieges maintained, ol which the de
tails are as yet preserved only in the newspapers
or in the transient publications of the day, but
which ought now to take their place in perma
nent aud authentic history.
Iu preparing the present edition for the press,
it has accordingly been the aim oi the editors to
bring down the information to the latest possi
ble dates, aud to furnish u accurate account of
the most recent discoveries in science, of every
fresh production in literature, and of the newest
inventions iu the practical arts, as well as to give
a succinct and original record of the progress of
political and historical events.
The work has been begun alter long and care
ful preliminary labor, aud with the most ample
resources for carrying it on to a successful term
ination.
None of the originul Btereotypo plates have
been used, but every page has been printed on
new type, forming in fact anew Cyclopaedia, with
the same plan and compass as its predecessor,
but with a far greater pecuniary expenditure,
aud with such improvements iu its composition
as have been suggested by longer experience aud
enlarged knowledge.
The illustrations which aro introduced for the
first tune in tic present edition have been add! and
not for the sake of pictnvial effect, but to give
greater lucidity and force to the explanations in
the text. Tin y embra *-all branches of science
aild of natural hist ry, ami depict the most
lam-ms aud reuiarkabh- matures of scenery,
architecture and art. as w* 11 us the various pro
cesses of mechanics and manufactures.
Although intended for instruction rather than
i mbelishment, no pains have been spared to in
sure their artistic excellence; the cost of their
execution is enormous, ami it is believed they
will find a welcome reception as an admirable
feature of the I’yelopcmlu, and worthy of its
high character.
This work is sold to Subscribers only, payable
on delivery of each volume. It will be completed
iu six teen large octavo volumes, each containing
alK>ut 800 pages, fully illustrated with several

The demand for Dr. J. Bradfield’s Fe
male Regulator is beyond precedent in
the annals of popular remedies. Orders
come in so thick and fast that the Propri
etor has, heretofore been unable to fill
them all. He is happy to state that ar
rangements are now complete by which
he is prepared to manufacture Female
Regulator on a scale equal to the emer
gency, and the public may feel assured
that their wants may now be supplied.
Physicians of high repute are using this
great remedy, in daily practice, all over
Georgia. Hereafter no woman need suf- :
fer from suppressed, suspended or irreg
ular menstruation. This valuable medi
cine is prepared by L. H. Bradfleld, Drug
gist, At lanta, Ga., and sold at $1.50 per
bottle by druggists throughout America.
HEARTY, BLOOMING WIDOW.
Marietta, Ga., March o, 1870.
Me#Hi #. BnuJJield A Cos.:
Gentlemen—You will please ship us an
other supply of vour invaluable Female
Regulator, and forward bill by mail. Wo ;
are happy to state that this remedy gives
better satisfaction than any article we I
sell. We have been selling it since 1868,
and witnessed many remarkable cures by
it. Among others, there was a lady
friend of ours who was sallow and sickly
until she was twenty-six years old, when !
she was married. Her husband lived two I
years and died. She continued in bad j
health; in fact, she has never been what j
a woman ought to be. A few months
after the death of her husband she saw j
your advertisernent, and came to our!
store and bought a bottle of your Itegula- 1
tor from us, and took it according todi-i
lections. It has cured her sound and !
well,brought her regular monthly peri-!
ods ou, and to-day she is a hearty, bloom
ing widow—with ‘the use of but* two hot-;
ties of your Regulator, costing her only |
three dollars, when sin* had tried several!
physicians and spent a great deal of'
money without any bein Wishing you .
great success with your valuable reme
dies, we are, respectfully yours, etc..,
