Oa Wednesday afternoon of last week Governor Russell called the C mncil of State together and after duly considering the case of J hn Evans, who was con victed of Rape at Rockingham, granted him a reprieve for sixty days. In grant ing the reprieve he gave the following reasons: This case demands a Ferious ard thoubtrul investigation. Out of four ether like cases thnt occurred in this State during this year one of the culprits escaped before arret-t, two were hanged by the courts and one by a mob. In the two convictions there was no reoaonable doubt of guilt and the probabilities are that the mob got the right man. Here comes a case where a friendle.-s wretch has ben put on trial in a community fevertd with excitement ard indignation justly aroused by the commission of a crime for which the perpetrator ought to tuffer death. There were excellent men on the jury; but no jury can be expected to deliberately and coolly weigh evidence uninfl'iencei by the spirit pervading the community. It is possible that a jury of like char D).r in rlitfprpntcnniniunitv wculd have rendered a dfferrnt vtrdict upon this same evidence, and it rema ns to be seen whether the jurors in thin case a. ay not ch inge their opinion upon maturer con sideration under quieter circumstances. "Evidence dirtc.ly material to the qufs i.m of the prisoner's gu It has been pn duced since trie trial. "It is urged that the identification of the prisoner was inomplrte and unsatis factory; that an alibi was completely prove j by witnesses of b-th rces and that the admitted facts f the case s-rong-ly indicated that the perpetrator of th crime was famili .r with the habits of the prosecutrix in walking along that certain path where, and at that certain hour when, the crime was committed; that the prisoner could not have known these thing, because he was virtually a stran ger in the town; that he had orly been there once inside cf a year and h nee it is most unlikely that he should have known the prosecutrix or bem familiar with her habits. As to the truth of these allegations no opinion is expreeri, but they come from source so worthy of consideration as to demand time for close cnnitinv unH thrill i htfnl investigation. "It further appears irom documentary evidence that there is a sentiment to the effect that aside from the guilt or inno cence of this pris ner, it would be bst for the county that the sentence t f the court be at once executed. This senti ment cannot I e prevailing among just or christian people, except as the rtsuitof temporary ebullitions of passions pro voked by frightful outrages. "In granting the postponement of ex ecution the Executive is sustained by ihe Council of State, by prominent citizens of Richmond county and of various other countu-s. by intelligent clergymen and eminent lawyers and editors; and for the further consideration of this case he in vokes the advice of the educated, the substantial, the religious and the law abiding tlci ents of the State." Northwestern North Carolina. North Wilkesboro, N. C. Mr. Editor : Please permit space for the following: In the Springtime the Vegetable Ktng 1 i thoiau-ai.f nature Blowing in its living verdure, smiling around us and presenting environments of beauty, awakens the imagination and fills the faculty of taste with love and enjoyment.

Go down into her deep val leys; species of plmts whch fill the air with fn grance wiil attract you and en gage your attention. ery we often look upward it is there we see sunny skies gilding the deep val leys and lofty peaks, making cur country a land of sunshine. .

Therefore, on our mountains, in our lowl n la,' in the bowels f the earth, in the mi.ist of te atmosphere and in tur view of the tkus there are beauties equal wirh any in the book of nature. In this section of North Carolina there is fertile soil in which is concealed rnval u .be treaures. I' is the most product ive in t're State and yields abundantly. I:s fertility is euch as makes the plants thiive imd insure the laborer a good and profitable living.

We have numerous streams which hve untold utility, being partly harntssei, and could be made to do much greater service. The question which is perplexing is, why the colored people who have not homes, and are not properly situated, do not come to this sec i n and enjoy its nm.1iiri.ia n nrl riJ.sniirCB? The willing and industrious farmer can come to this section and wiih lit;le means purchase land sufficient to not only make an ordinary, but a competent living. There are many bottoms uncultivated waiting for the farmer who is willing to work with the means given him to come and cultivate their soil and let them sha-e i aiwa.orinir the needs and wanis of our leople in our Southern land: plains which need the soul, strengtn arm means 01 mc nnnuiont f .rmpr to mi t them in leceesa' v . . . -. - r - usefulness.
