Pest and Pillory.
Sheriff Martin wielded the lash this
morning in the jail yard atNew.Cas
tle on the backs of five criminals, all
of whom, with oueexceptiou,took their
punishment with perfect coolness.
Those who suffered the punishment were
Ward Groomes, who, after standing in
the pillory oue Lour, received twenty
lashes well laid on, and after the tenth
cut commenced to] call ou the Lord to
have pity, but thcie was uo hope for
him.
George Gordon, the celebrated whist
le! 1 , repeatedly noticed in the Repub
lican, was convicted of the larceny of
a coat, received ten lashes, which made
him squirm, but he never uttered a
word until it was over, when he said to
the Sheriff: " You got it ou me this
time, boss,''and immediately commenc
ed to warble a tune, amid the laughter
of the spectators.
John Jennings, the man whom officer
Marquess shot a short time ago, limped
from his cell to the post and received
bis ten lashes with perfect coolness.
Daniel Monroe, colored, a chicken
thief, was the next victim and received
ten lashes well laid on, hut he never
flinched.
Ned Cassidy was the last victim, and
he advanced to the post with a firm
step and received ten lashes heavily
applied. He endeavored to escape his
f ninishnieiit by placing a porous plaster
u the centre of his back as a dodge,
but it would not work, and ho received
his punishment as did the others. Large
welts were raised on the skin across the
shoulder, but he bore it calmly, and
will no doubt steer clear of the post in
the future.
Thinking that jrerhap
attempt to escape w hile being taken
from his cell to the post, an officer was
stationed at the entrance of tho yard,
but the prisoner made uo attempt to es
cape the clutches of the law.

WHAT
Do you need in the way of
Clothing? Is it a suit or
part of one, or perhaps an
overcoat, or probably, luckily
for us, both. Whatever your
need is we are particularly
anxious that you should give
us the opportunity of selling
them to you, and probably
for the same reason that
every other merchant has
that it is our business and we
desire to increase our trade
by every fair and honorable
way possible. We feel as
sured that we can show you
a stock of clothing for men
or boys which will come as
near jour idea of nice cloth
ing as it is possible to find.
Overcoats command atten
tion in such weather, and we
are fully prepared to show
as stylish and extensive a
stock of Medium and Heavy
weight garments as can be
found, boys and children
as well as men can be per
fectly suited from our st' ck,
and we are determined to
place before our patrons
nothing but first class goods.
a
It is encouraging to know
that we to-day employ more
hands on fine custom work
than ever before,and are kept
as busy as we can be getting
out our orders on time. This
is but a natural consequence,
as we at all times offer a
stock of fine piece goods of
Foreign and Domestic Man
ufacture which contains all
the novelties and stylish pat
terns of the season. Our
cutters and workmen are
thoroughly experienced and
able to uphold our reputa
tion for good work. Try us,
and we assure you that you
shall not be the loser by any
transaction with us.

FIFTH EDITION,

Proceeding* in Ike Eld Okie lb I a
■orolng—Argument cf the Attor
ney-General.
The <-ourt room «m again crowded
this morning, and the uaual number of
ladies were present The space inside
the bar was almost filled with ladles,
and even the reporter's table was aur
rouuded by the fair sex. The jurv w'ere
brought in a few minutes before 10
o'clock looking tired ard weary with
their three days confinement in the
Court House, aud as they took their
seats their names were called and all
answered.
Chief Justice Comegys aud Associate
Justices Wootten, Iloustou aud Wales
wero ou the bench, and|a few minutes
after the opening Mr. Hharpley again
addressed the Court and jury lu behalf
of bis client.
He cited a number of authorities to
prove that this was clearly a case of
self-defense, or that under no circum
stances could the crime be anything
greater t han manslaugh ter. H e clai med
that there had not been any
malice showu on the part of
consequently the kllliug was done in
hot blood.
He also submitted a number of points
ou which he asked the Court to charge
the jury, and closed at 11 o'clock.
Attorney-General Gray immediately
opened the cloning argument for the
State hy stating that he did not iutend
to consume a great deal of time iu ex
amining the points of law submitted by
the defense, as he did not think that
anything had beeu shown in the whole
course of the trial to justify a plea of
self-defense. This case is either oue of
manslaughter or some higher degree of
homicide.
After addressing the Court a few
minutes, aud reviowiug several of the
cases cited by Mr. Sbarpley, he pre
sented a number of points for the con
sideration of the Court, and commenced
hi* argument to the jury.
He said he knew this was a duty that
they as well as himself would gladly
escape. This was a responsibility that
rested on them equally with him, aud
he trusted that they would render a
verdietjt hat would belli accordance with
the evidence, and tie justice both to the
State and the prisoners.
He could not close Lis eyes to the pa
thetic sight presented yesterday, when
the wives of these prisoners sat in front
of the dock with that innocent prattling
child. There was do doubt that the
jury as well a*« himself felt the greatest
sympathy for these unfortunate women,
but they must not allow themselves to
be governed or influenced by sympathy,
but must rentier a verdict in accordance
with the facts. It seems to be the pro
vince of man in this world to bring

down those w li
the cloHi'st lies.
The different degree* of homicide were
explained by Mr. Gray, ard he Raid
that neither the law or common sense
would or could justify a man in taking
a human life under the circumstance
that Taylor was slain. This prisoner
killed him, and then boast4'<l he had
done it, and now when brought bef
the bar of justice, he asks the jury to
also become participants, aud say he
done it in sell-defense.
Mr. Gray was particularly severe on
Lewis JK. List, aud when he pictured
the scene
to the shooting, when it
that he had told
Dean's dishes rather than let her take
them out, he denominated him ana
"petty household tyrant."
He did not think, under the circum
stances, that Le himself would have
acted as calmly as Taylor did. He went
to this house and stood in the presence
of the man who had struck his niece,
and when he asked that she lie allowed
to remove her goods, the old mao List
told him that all the goods in the house
belonged to bis sou, and George Taylor,
thinking that he might be wrong, said :
Well, the goods aiu't mine, and I
won't, have anything to do with them"
and weut out.
Rut he did not go awav; tlm speaker
wished he had, but he did not ihink
that he would have esteemed hi in as
much if he had. He went to the corn
er, and told officer Walker that he ex
pected t here would be a tight, and he
wanted him to be around and arrest all
hands. He done this, becausein his ig
norance of the law, he thought that
then the matter would he settled.
The longer he studied over the matter,
the more he felt the injustice that had
been done his niece, ami he nturne l to
the house and called List out. lie asked
him to let her have the few articles that
belonged to her, aud lie replied, "if you
will pay me seven dollars and a half,
she can take them, and Taylor finding
that, he could not get the goods,said, " I
don't want you to strike that girl
again," aud List made some reply,
when Taylor struck him, but he did not
use a pistol, a club, or any kind of a
deadly weapon; he only used the wea
pon nature had given him.
He did not blame old Mr. List for
running out with a stick to defend
his son, if he had stopped there, but
he did not, for when Taylor ran, he
possessed with seven ilevi's, cried,
" shoot him Lew, shoot the *-n of a
b-b," and the son iu obedience to the
father's com mauds fired two shots a
the fleeing man.

List was a brave man as long as Tay
lo's back was toward him, but when
he turned, both the L sis ran hack, the
one secreting himself in a door, lying
iu wait, and as soon as the o d man
saw Taylor as he was returning for his
hat, lac I'd 'a w's your time, ahoat

his father's order he fired, aud sent
George Taylor, without a prayer, with
out a void into the presence of that
great judge before whom we all mu.-t

The \ery way in which the shooting
was done shows that Lew List had con

This ouowod the ferocious nature of
the old man ; it was not enough that
the sou in obedience to his command
had shot this man down, but be want
ed him lo heat the dyimr man still
further.
And what was List's conduct iin
mediately after he fired that shot ? he
did not cry out, my God, I've shot him
wtiat shall I do ? run for a doctor, be
quick, try and save his life. Oh no ? he
did nothing of tho kind. He sahl "Uvo

to his mother's house, and when the
officer came said to him " I'm the man

He sulmitted that the fate of these
men were in the hands of the jury, but
they also owed a duty to society that
they could not shirk, and he confident
