THE INDIANA STATE SENTINEL, WEDNESDAY, MAY 19, le80-

IS THE GAIXOWS SHADOW,

How a Man Feel Who U, Under Sentence of Death. Covert Bennett, who, with Mrs. Smith, was sentenced to be hacged for the murder of Mrs. Smith's husband in Jersey City, N. J., und who obtained a new trial and was acquitted, delivered a lecture in Jersey City a few nights ago. We ccpy a follows from a report in the New York Sun: When having surrendem! himself, he thus describes his leeiings on being first taken to a cell: "I was, a It were, in a trance. Then I became conscious of my surrounding!, and with Ulis knowledge came an overpoweiing de.sire to get away from them. I began to Khakethe heavy iron dcor aad call lortne Chief cf Folice. Shortly he came, when I tried to argue with him to let me out. Baying that I was guiltless, that he had no right to hold me, ami that 1 could not endure being in there. To ail this he paid no attention, simply reiterattna that 1 baa to remain. Again left to myself I was in despair. Then, a the darkness grew tfceper, by one of those strange changes to which the human mind is subject, I forgot all about my surroundings, loaing them in recollections or the Baa tile, the old man Pagan, the Man in the Iron Mask, rascal, and others which llitted through my brain. With raornlDK came exhaustion, and worn out 1 nung idj sen ou m ucuiu uu iu i i' The speaker then reviewed the tircumtOauces of his indictment and varying hopes ilnriiuMl'B tcree months preceding his nrst trial. Kit hfc sensations during that period of suspense he says: "No thought hfni 1 bat of the teriinle charge lor wnich 1 was held. It seems as if it had taKen possession of my very vitals. I had pain intense, agonizing; not physical, yet Mich I seemed to feel, cot only mentally, but through mv whole being. Often and otten have I wished that I could remove ray son I out ot my body that I might be freed, if for only it moment, Ironi the intensity and agony of bis nameless sensation which was ever present." When arraigned for trial ho thus described his feeling: "Aral then, with grout trepidation, I waited the sanction of the jury. Even now 1 remember, as it the scene. Wf re puasiug betöre me, with what anxiety I Kind ied each juior's face, trying to read their dispositions, and whether they were Javorab'.y inclined lowirj me or not, so much, I thought, depended upon a single man. At nie la I hal little or no rest, nor could I eat, but wouli pe.ss hoar after hour walking back und forward in my narrow cell, thinking over ail that 1 had heard during the day, weighing in my own mind 1 effects upon those who tu-ld my life lu the balance." Ha describes his sensations daring the trial, through the suramins np, and listening to the Judge's charge. "Waiting for the verdict," he says, I lelt sure of an acquittal, and within myself was jubllaLt in auilcipatiou of once inure humg able to walk abroad a other ineu. I was In a reverie thinking of this, and fancying the joys and pleasutes which within m snort a time ould be mine, when the arrival of a Court oilicer to take me to the bar broke in upon this vein of thought. Watting," 1 scannt d l he lace of each Juror as he hied ia to his place; also the !ace of the Jade. Had reconviction that I was to be acquitted not been so etronsr, the slight of three or the jurymen In tears would have toid me that oue or us at least Mrs. Smith or himself was condemned. ".sa thunderclap came the words from the foreman' lips, 'Guilty !' Who can fully describe my leelii-gä? 1 can not. Ho deutet at mach length his sensations during the nights and days of the next lew weens. We letera to the Ignominy of the death to which he had been itntenced.as it would alTect his mother and only sister. "I saw my mother's sweet face, so calm and gen tie.' he says, "Icokln, oh! so grieved, so pained, so sad My very heart seemed bursting ad I thought of her; aud my sister, too. her sweet. Innocent face, in all its girlish innocence and leauty, would rise np before me p'.cadinzlv, with great ter welling in her eyes and pity and woe so plaintively expressed on her cWutenanee, that the thougut that she, ho orphan, fatherhs. mother. ess. was to lose her bro.her, ana by such an ignominious death, was too much. The very thought of it was worse even that the dread of the gallows." Further along, referring t Mrs. Smith and hi. knowledge of her absolute lnno-euceof the murder, he said: "Remorse would at this moment become bo strong that 1 lelt that if uny sacrifice on my part would result in the saving of her Ufa I would willingly endure it. v o Once, indeed, was I so worked upon that in the middle of the night, and though sound asleep, I sprang from the bed and did not wate until the watchman touched me, when I found myself in ihe middle of the floor. The watchman was white as death, and told me that I cried out: 'Oa, no! no! no!' Ami well 1 might, for in my slesn I had dreamed that, waking, Isaw in a colli n by my side Mrs. Mmith, while above her wss a scaffold in all its hideous ghastllness. On the other s'de of the colli n was a thin, shadowy presence that, pciutiog its ringer down into the coffin, exclaimed: 'You are the cause of this!' He passed through many alternations of hope and despair, as he describes them, until the time set lor the elocution approached. "It may seem incredible," he tays, "to me even now it seems singular, as my memory ha brought It rattier Indistinctly to ray mind, yet it is true that within a week of the time unpointed for my execution I became so thoroughly resigued that the thought of death itsou had no horror. Not t oat I did not feel, in all Its fullness, the awfulness of the death to which 1 was doomed, and the terrible stain that it would forever leave upon my name. All this I fuliy (how fully I can never find words to express) felt, but the calm that came upon me was 1 he calmness of resignation born oi that entire acceptance and belief In the Suprem Power Maat governs all, who. If He so willed that I shoulu buffer for this crime, or whteti I was guLtless, did it for a purpose tnat liowever inscrutih'e to me was doubtless, to Iiis omnlcience, all sufficient." Then came the news of the granting of a new trial. He says: "I have read and beard ot those who. standing on the brink of a precipice, have felt the earth crumble and fall beneath their feet nothlDg above them but the vast Heavens, nothing below them lor thousands of feet but the light air, through which they felt themselves lalllng with momentarily asce'erated epeed. A twig, a blade of grass, a branch, perchance a small stone, has for an Instant stayed the frightful Impetus. How they have clung and held on to it, digging their nails Into the earth, biting with their tteth to no purpose. Down, down they have fallen. Suddenly and un looked for, as unthooght of. an obstacle stays their progress, and holds them hanging on the frightful abyss. They are aveo ! Can they dottcribe their feelings? No! Neither can I." He describes the beginning and progress of the second trial until It reached the point where the jury had retired. "1 noticed," he says, "without apparent effort, everything; vet no single incident seemed to make the slightest impression upon me until I saw the last of the jurors pass siowly away. Then the break which followed, the noise, bustle and confusion, though at the time I did not notice them, probably brought me to myself. My anxiety, however, was bo great as to overpower every other feeling; and yet. with all this, there was a conviction in my own mind that the verdict would be one of acquittal, tempered every now and then by the remembrance of that former experience when, with equal assurance of acquittal, and with much of the same grounds lor basing that assurance upon, the verdict had been an unfavorable one. I did, indeed, realize that all things were posslble. "This mental Incertitude continued until Judge and Jury were once more assembled. The verdict, 'Not Uailty,' found an answering echo in my heart. I lelt my nerve leap together as If renewed life and energy had awakened in my soul. I was free once more; my fellow-man's equal: once more able to call my soul my own to be my own master, to live, to soealc and act as I chose." A SNAKE CONCERT. The Marvelon Story Told by Colorado Frontiersman. TLeadville (Col.) Chronicle. "Talk about snakes," remarked an old frontiersman in conversation with a Chronicle reporter a few evening ago; "there are more snakes in Arizona than ever existed in Ireland before good old St. Patrick came along and gave them the grand boince. "Why, I have been everywhere; wsded Southern swamps when I would have to atop a minute, with the water op to my chin, to allow a drove or school of water-moccasins or cotton-mouths to go by; up in the far Northwest and British America I have lived like a fighting cock and to the Queen' taste for weeks at a time on snake steak, bat I saw more rattlesnakes down in Arizona a year ago last sumner than : ever before in my life, all put together. Down there they don't go in pairs, cl asters or droves, bat in columns, just for the world like the children of Israel got up and tramped out of Egypt with Motes and Aaron in the van, and Joseph, with his circus coat, bringing np the rear. land a friend were over in the Tombstone country among the hill on a prospecting expedition. There were rattlesnakes all around us, but they -did not teem to . be , very earsge.

We would scare them up by riding along, and they would sneak away from Our track like coyotes. One day, about 2 o'clock in the afternoon, we were taking a hill, and, as the ascent was very sharp, our horses would stop every few minutes to blow.. Lot?:; before -we got to the summit we heard a strange noise, ot rather jargon of noises, apparently on the other aide, and if we had been shot the next minute, could not have told from whence It emanated. Why, it was worse than the average church cho:r. Well, we got to the top after a while; V.e no'ss increasing every step we took up. y the time we had got there it had became little short ot terrihe, and looking down over the aide we saw a eight that took the cake. On a little plateau of about fifty yards dimensions, about leventy-five feet below us, was a regular rattlesnake reunion and concert. The ground and stones were just yellow with them, and if there was one there were at least 10,000 snakes in the gang. They were of all ages and sizfs, and how they enjoyed themselves. The two oldest klcg-pina of the crowd were in the center, and the other snakes were all gathered about them. Each and every snake had coiled himself np in such a man neraatoallow their tails and rattles good piny, and they were all rattling away as if for wages, and their wicked tongues were darting out and in keeping up an accompaniment to their tails. We looked at the racket for about a minute, and then with an awful flour ish the rattling stopped. The two old snakes reared their heads at least three feet from the ground, and looked all around over the field in a manner Indicative ot a General on a battle ground. After surveying the situation and apparently seeing that every member cf the snake combination was ready for business, they sounded a note by way of tuning up, and the whole crowd commenced their coccsrt again. It took them about ten minutes to finish one tune, and we must have watched them there through at Ieest half a dozen. After a while I got tired ot the business, and rolled a rock down in the crowd. This broke up the meeting without delay, and as several of the snakes 'were crushed to death, the others set up an awful rattling and crowded away to their respective dena. I have been among snakes all my life, but that was the first snake concert I ever witnessed." . Overworked Children. A German physician, who has been giving attention to the lassitude and habitual headaches of children, says that he finds the trouble to bs largely on the increase. lis attributes tne cause to excessive intellectual exertion, which ambitious parents, instead of checking, as they should do, are inclined to stimulate and spur up on all occasions. Children who have a variety of subjects to study up and do much night work aie almost invariably exposed to these disorders, caused entirely by exhaustion of the brain. A London physician, commenting upon the German's observations, remarks that he has sometimes found the brain to be growing faster than the skull which contained it "What teemed like a great stupidity was for a time the result, but in time the skull effected its enlargement and the brain was relieved." A brain overworked in childhood prepares a man for great evils later in life. How Negroes Are Treated In the South. Ilaitimore Gazette. The career of the late Dr. Bayard T. Smith, a respectable colored physician, who died the other day at WilmiDgton, Dal., affords a striking contradiction of the S alwart stories about race proscription at the South. Dr. Smith was a thoroughly educated man, aud enjoyed the respect and confidence of a community largely Democratic throughout his career. He never had any "oppression" or "discrimination" to com plain of, and lived as comfortably in Wilmington as he could have lived in Boston. True, he was not admitted to the social companionship of white people, but he enjoyed as much of it probably as he would have had anywhere in the North.

Important to AH. The most general complaint that seems to spue neither class nor condition of person, is seated In the liver. Many with woe-begone countenances, despondent spirits and depressed feelings, exeg gerate every event until even suicide has been known to result from this morbid condition of body and mind, yet Simmons' Liver Regulator is known to be a specific for affections of the Liver, Spleen and Kidneys. Unlike most preparations it fully meets the wants of the patient whose liver or stomach is disorganized and soon restores the emaciated und spiritless dyspeptic sufferer to a more hopeful condition of life than he could otherwise ho&e to attain. Purchasers should ba careful to see that they gt the genuine, manufactured only by J. II. Zeilin fc Co., Philadelphia. "I was trying the other day," says M. LiLouchere, "to prevent two farmers going to law over a property left to be divided between them; and, as one of them wts a good Bible Christian, pressed on him the amicable arrangement come to between Lot and Abraham. 'Aye, sir,' said he, with a sty smile, 'that Lot was a crafty old fellow. He took all the water meadows to his share.' I realized the danger of- applying Biblical examples to modern times." l'resident Hayes. The validity of Mr. Hayes' title nisy always be questioned, and his administration criticised, but the payment of one dol lar gives a valid title to one bottle of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, and its administration can never be criticised in cases of coughs, colds, incipient consump tion.and general debility, for leading physicians of all schools indorse the Discovery and prescribe it in their practice.

A Monument ot Gold Should be erected in memory of the inventor of "Anakesis," the great external Tile Rem edy. Mr. James J. Basse tt, of Erie, Pa , writes as follows: Messrs.

I have used two boxes and it el it my dnty to say to you that by the use of your simple remedy I have been raised from the brink of despair to the joyful hope of soon being able to declare myself entirely cured. One month's trial, at the small expense ot the cost of one box of "Anakesis," has given me more relief than two years of doctoring with oar best physicians here. Sarely a tnona ment of gold should be erected in memory of the inventor of Anakesis. Send at once if possible.

FINANCIAL AND UÜ1LS1EIICIAL

The banks are well supplied with' funds, and are meeting the wants of their regular customers promptly at the UBual rates of interest. New York Financial Market, New Your, May 17, Money Easy at i&5 per cent. Prime Mercantile Paper 53j5 per cent. Government Bonds -strong and higher. Railroad Bonds-Irregular. Htate Becurlties Dull. Tbe week opened on tbe Stock Exchange with a renewal of bear assaults on the market, which have formed so prominent a feature of the situation for some time past. At the tart a particular drive wan made against Canada Southern and Pacifle Mailand both stocks yielded to the pressure. Canada Southern, which closed at i. Saturday, opened and broke to 4u. Pacific Mail opened at 31;, and dropped to Tbe transfer books of this Company for the annual election will closa to nay, and It is generally understood that the Paclflo Railroad will control the Company next year. The break in tbesa two stocks affected the whole list unfavorably, and there was a general decline of to 3 per cent., the latter in Wabash, which was influenced to some extent by a repetition of tbe rumors a bout fresh issues of stock. After while Canada Southern rallied 2 and Pacific Malll1 percent., and there was a sympathetic Improvement In other shares. Tu Is wtsfollowed, after meridian, by a sudden decline In coal reads, Delaware, Lackawanna and Western dropping tolGlZ, and Jersey Central to 65. This caussd weakening in the general list once more at second board. Coal shares rallied 14H1 per cent , which Impanel a firmer feeiing to the whole merket. The reasons given for a tresh decline In values to day are the old ones, viz.: general demoralization of the bull element, and the fact that prices are not low enough to suit some of the leading operators who have complete control oi market for the time being. During the afternoon the depression was mere marked than at any previous time since the present downward movement set in, and the market was utterly demoralized. There was a short pressure to ceil all leading speculative shares and transactions were enormous In the closing hour of busines". The decline brought out a large amount of long stocks, a natural result of further weakening of margins. Tne lowest point of decline for theday was 1 to KM per cent.. Canada Southern, jersey Central, Pucilic Mail, Wabash, Michigan Central and GraDgers showing the greatest fall. In tbe final sates there was a recovery of hi to 1 per cent., this advance being led by Jersey Central, Keadlng and St. Paul.

Cattle Receipts 313 head ; shipments 17 head. The market opened this morning with a good supply of butcher stock; a very large share of tbe Uferings were chunky light cattle of good quality, and prices were well sustained from the closing prices of last week; however, that portion consisting of common rough cattle was a drag on the market: as butchers are discriminating against rough butcher stock in general, which caused a decline of 25c on all grades of common stock, our butchers were well supplied for the first time in two weeks, with a good number lelt over unsold, but not sufficient in quantity to force dealers to make concessions on good steck.
