Universal Pardon and Amnesty.
Amone the notable events of th rhristm
holidays the prominent one was the nroclamation
of uniyersal pardon and amnesty to all particiii
pants in the late rebellion. As this proclamation
is without reservation, w& congratulate the couth
try ippon the fact that it has finally and fully ac4
complished what should have been done long;
since. This pardon and amnesty decree includes)
Jefferson Davis, Breckinridge, Mason, Slidel?,j
and .others, as well as minor participants in jthjej
rebellion, and thus at once and. forever settles a
measure which, for years, has been pressed ujxb
the President,but which he delayed in executing

n Death of a Noted Kentucky Guerilla.
From the Louisville
Democrat, December I4.';i
- At abrout half-past 1 0 o'clock: yesterday morn
ing one of the most terrible bush-whackers that
figured on eitlier ide during the wir "breathed
his last at our city "hospital.-: The noted Chi otairi
Ed. Terrell is no more. These words will; causo
a-ieeimg oi rcnei to nuudreds ox gooa men in
Shelby and other counties iu this State. He
tras without doubt one dT the most heartless and
wicked menfthat has .figured In his age. It is
believed by those who know hereof they epeak
that Ed. iTerrell murdered no less thatr twenty
men daring his life. He was conspicuotrs in both
the Confederate and Federal armies. . ;," s ;
At the breaking out of the War he 'enlisted in
t! Dixie Guards, a ; company commanded bf
Jack TJiipsdn
tered into the First Ken tucky (Confe'derate) regij
ment. He afterwards joined General Morgan's
command,. from which he deserted in 18GB, and
turned up as Captain of a company of inder;endj
ent (Federal) scouts, j It will be remembered
that it was (Captain Ed. Terrell who murdered
Hercules Walker in 1864 on his farm, j a few
miles. from the city, on the Preston street road.
Terrell rode up to the house of Walker and in
'
quired for him. Walker's wife called him from
his work in the field, and, upon his coming up to.
the doori Terrell deliberatelv shot him I down;
without Uttering a word. He said tat the! time
t hat he hhd a commission to kill ten men;
abd
Walker was the first of the number.
After com-
mitti
in tlils bloody deed the desperado rode off
iarchjof new victims. . . .1 .: I fv . f
m sea
. lie alsp murdered Lsnnis oou, an
mdus-
trious and. worthy blacksmith, at Taylorsville, in
Spencer County. Terrell had ebt a number of
horses shod, and upon beinr asked by Wood
who wa3 to pay for the wort he became enraged
and shot jtbe poor man: down: in cold Dioou
In 1 804 he murdered Mr Johnson, a worthy
citizen of Indiana, who came to Kentucky! with
a drove of cattle which, he had sold and for
which he had received-the mouev. Terrell de-
enved the uususnectinir drover out a fowl. miles
from Shelbyville, wh6ii he knocked him' on the
head, stripped the body ot what money was upon
it, and then threw it in Clear Creek, where it was
discovered and the crime traced to Terrell J Hie
was indicted and lay in jail for a lon time, u
til he broke put,1 and shortly afterwards ! visfte
Shelbyville with his pnr. lie was attacked by
a poss6 of citizens and fairly riddled vfath ' bul-
letsvet his time had not come for death.! He
lived, Ibut in a very crippled condition. He. was
afterwird capturedvbut by some machination got
released on his own bond.
Ou one occasion we are told, he was courting
a beautiful girl. I Her brother had! come mtd
the parlor and was introduced to Terrell.! The
young man had ) ou a, fine pair of new ( boots.
Terrell set his affections upon them,, and on that
Wsamo nitrlit shot and killed the ioung man for
a . r i -. .
the sole purpose!
of getting his boots. J Terreill!
afterwards boasted of this exploit. His tipil was
marked wiih' the blood of his innocent yiot:ms
j throughout the
war, and long after its close.
J"
W hile; on the
Confederate side, he was a boon
companion ot cue Aiunaay ana A.iiamp i ergu-
son. j lie vwas outlawed by all Coufederatc forces
and buslxwhaeked on his own hook for plunder,1
until he got into tne r ederai camo.f rJ e tnen
obtained a roving commission' land commeuced
his bloody Career anew, kUlins: the friends .with
whom hp had camped and fought iu a. common
camj
cause.
Aboui three months ago. Terrell was shot and
wounded in five! or six places by a brothef-i n "-law;
whom he had grossly wronged. ' This, webelieye
liu.ished Insjcarecr, so . tar, as -spilling; blood wis
concerned, r ome two montns sago tie was
broughtfto the JjOUisville city hospital, I where
he lingered in great agony until death cjame to
his relief. He was a terror to the people pf
Shelby county and other localities in Kentucky.
Thus has passed away one of the last of the mon-
strous desperadoes to whom the war gave birth,

Srant's election is the ratification by the people

egality of the existing State organizations South !
prhich have grown up under theReconatruction

not frei South, and that the political action of.
both whites and blacks i subject to duress, pro-
peedinto the cxtreiue in some instances to to-.-tual

The election of Gen. Grant is thol protest of'-'
jthp North against' this alleged condition tf af

It is the danger arising out of this matter, Uhich 1

tibn on your part, 1 wouJd remark that wh&tyou
want, above, all things, at Tho South, is irtternal '
harmoriy. If you had this, you would receive a 1
large influx of white population and capital. -This
wouldbe of incalculable benefit tcj you,
both in its influence on 3out material intjsreata,
and as relieving ' you -fronl the apprehension!' ; ,
arising from universal surage. 1 -
This obstaclotoyour receiving this population' .
and capital how; is the apprehension which ex
ists as o.the anarchical condition of your society.
It is a striking fut th4t both ihe great political ,
parties of the country,.have thought it to bis their ' " 1
intcres; to represent Southern society as in t, M
conditiDn of chronic insecurity and violenciej the
Democrats, in order to ahqw the ovils oif uni
versa! suffrace : and tho Republicans, to illustrate
the disjoyal sentiment of the people, and their
consequent unfitness for any part in the control j.
of the Federal Government. Between these two
seta of representations, the movement ofopula 1
tion anid capital to the South ia almost, entirely i
checked. It ia your .policy to 'have tt belirvcd
that or Jer reigns supreme South, t ltence yoti 1 j

I think , keep several ideas prominontly in view, ' j.

3. Vou ought to. extend a cordial and a kind
