Thespeaker then handed to Judge Boykia his request for instruc tions, an analysis of which is about as follows : 1- Under the new statute the State was Required to prove beyond reasona ble doubt that the killing . was . wilful, deliberate and premeditated in order to convict of murder in the first degree. 2. ..That in murder of the second de gree- the killing being proved, the bur den was shifted to the defendant to show that he was justified. 3. By way of -deduction : that if Shem well left his drugstore armed , with two pistols with the intention of provoking a difficulty and using His pistols, (it did not matter who made the first assault or drew the first pistol,) 'he was guilty- of murder in the first degree. ; He then proceeded with his argu ment i -.- . First, he maintained that the jury could not find the defendant guilty of a less crime than murder in the second degree, because the burden of proof was upon him. Only eleven witnesses, in cluding the defendant, five being kins people had sworn to-one statement .jus tifying him, and 20 witnesses had con tradicted them, and thereforej he has not satisfied the jury of his innocence. Second, that the State will ask for a verdict -of murder in the firsl degree, for the evidence shows that it was wil ful, deliberate and' premeditated. Addressing himqelf to the first general division of his argument, Judge Mont gomery contrasted the witnesses respec tively for the defendant and for the State. Putting Dr. Lee Payne, against Shemwell, he said thev former didn't have as much motive ; Mrs. Lee Payne against , Mrs. Shemwell ; little David Crotts against Dermot Shemwell; W. B. Hammer, 55 yards off, against Tron ham 206 yards off ; Gertrude Jlammer, 55 yards off, against Mrs. Wheeler and Miss Alice Shemwell, 160 yards off, Tussey, 40 yards off, against Ford, .200 yards off, whose father is in the employ ment of Shemwell. . Then he asked the jury to put the character story, interest and motive of each group of witnesses one against the other. Then speaking of the 'old man, David Crotts, who was walking with the Drs. Payne at the time of the killing, he said David Crotts had lived three score years and all that he had was character, which he had built up through all lhat time, and would he now perjure him self on the lioiy Lvangenst without a motive ? ; Addressing himself to the second gen era! division of his argument, as to murder in the first degree, Judge Mont gomery covered three points : Motive intention and preparation.- Under the ".".1 first nitpd thft allp?ftd statement of size ;oij tne 0, . ... i... 1U LUC UJLgiabllls U1IU, xo- ferring to the wounded eye of the old Dr. Payne, namely, "1 wish I, had got ten the other one:" "I thank you, Mrs. Adderton, but I will kill them be fore night' "Is "that, malice, gentle men ?' ' exclaimed the speaker. 1 'It is hell's own. decoration of blood, one con coction on blood and call." As to in tention, look at the mound in yonder cemetery ; as to preparation, he exhibit ed the pistols to the jury, one 38 and the other 41, which he said Shemwell had carefully loaded. Again that he said, "I have? accomplished what I de termined to do." The speaker said this was the exclamation -of one who was exultant, exuberant over his deed, and that God Almighty had so arranged us, that murder would out. That the pos itive statement of John W. Lee's entitled to more weight than those who contra dicted him, as was that of Mrs". Adder- ton also. Bearing upon the principle, the speaker referred to the account of the thieves at the crucifixion, given by the four- evangelists. Matthew and Mark said theyboth reviled the Savior ; John said nothing on this point ; Luke said one exclaimed : "ioru, rememoer me," and the positive statement was the accepted one. . Then Judge Montgomery continued reading Mr, W.B. Hammer's testimony of the prisoner's statement to the sher iff i ''I am your prisoner. -J have done my do." Berrier's testimony ; "I heard him tell Mrs. Shemwell, 'I told you they wouldn't get me first.' " Tussey heard Mrs. Shemwell say to .her hus band : "You promised me you would not do it." Nooe testified that Wheeler said as Shemwell was coming out of the door "Baxter, don't do that,'' and Wheeler, said the speaker was not put up to deny this. :.- - " ; Judge Montgomery; then contrasted the conduct of the two parties after the first shooting, one walking slowly home; the other hunting for a gun, going for pistols! sending home f Or a, Winchester, going home and there breathing out The only thing," said tne speaker, "in the nature of thieat tes tified to against the Paynes was when Mrs. Lee Payne cried to her husband 'Lee; there comes Shemwell with a gun. Her husband ask&d the officer to arrest him and said ; ' Jrfee comes here I will lav for him end kill h -Then following SnemweUin.his march ud the street, the BpeakSrsaid that he couldn't wait to sign his bondafter the trial, he was in such, a hurry toxpursue the Paynes.- That his counsel, Robhms. had said to him : "Sit down, Baxte e: feet the appearance of the people be hind him. ' 'Two hundred 'people, " h e exekinfed? "saw Shemwell's demeanor Why of the testimony as te the position 'of the parties, " Why does pL man! put up two pistols to. shoot atone man only ? He was Shooting at both..;,. Why did he take time to pull the Becbnd pistol be fore he shot 7. Why didn't he use the one that he had'out if he did intend to shoot both?" - 5 - f, " Focusinghis points into a final sen tence, th&ipeakr said : "If he pre pared hjs pistols for that purpose," it is murder in the first degree." - y !v - A Then he began his peroration 5 ".They tejr you the old man was a conspirator and a murderer. Did ever a consoira- I tor die. with such words upon his lips : .Lora Jesus, receive ; my soul r .Now the ;, speaker added, 'Simon, son of Jonas; lovest thou me?" 'Jesus, thou knowest all things:; thou knowest that Hove the.' " 1 The speaker referred touchingly to the devotion of Shemwell's wife,, which deeply affected her, and to the cheerless hearth-stone and to the vacant chair at tne: homestead of the Paynes. vS.?Jetear8- have dried," he closing. "The busy ; world has gone baekJto its vocation. 'When every little bird would sing, as if to ;' burst its heart with joy, you hear from yon widowed home only a plaintive cry . " ., j - Judge Montgomery's argument was a masterly-piece of logical construction, the; analysis of which is only given here, tor he spoke two hours ahd forty minutes, with a fervor and effectiveness that were felt by- the "crowded house -as well as by the jury. ! - The speech may well stand forth to the public as the whole contention of the State, as an exhaustive and lucid summing up of the testimony forward.. I . . In its headlines, the Observer speech was an "able! effort" said in powerful presentation of the case for the State." The speech has been complimented by those who brought said the land "a highly heard, many pronouncing it one of the finest ever heard m Lexington. Free Iectur. i Rev. F. J; Murdock, D.

OAjlSrNONS & FETZER, UNTOLD MISERY Rheumatism C. H. Ziag, "Water Valley, Miss., eared by Ayer's Sarsaparilla "For five years, I suffered untold misery from muscular rheumatism. I tried every known remedy, consulted the best physi cians, visited Hot gprlngs, Ark., three times, spending $1000 there, besides doctors' bills; but could obtain only temporary relief. My flesh was wasted away so that I weighed only ninety-three pounds; my left arm and teg were drawn out of shape, the muscles ' THIS, "7BEK 4 xfiipi being twisted up In knots. ; I was unable to dress myself, except with assistance, and could only hobble about by using a cane, I had no appetite, and was assured, by th3 doctors, that I could not live. The pains., at times, were so awful, that I could procure relief only y means of hypodermic injec, tjons of morpbine. I bad my limbs bandaged in clay, in sulphur, in poultjoesj but these gave only temporary relief. After trying everything, and suffering the most awful tortures, I began to take Ayer's Sarsaparilla Inside of two months, I was able to walk without a cane.- In three months, my limbs began to strengthen, and in the course of a year, I was cured.
