I left the Mis sissippi steamboat at Columbia, Ken lock, having maJe np my mind to trav- el 'by lancJas far as JuuhienbtiFgh. conn where I should strike rfle Grecu river far enough northward to take one of the small flat boats for the Ohio. Late one evening, I arrived at the town of M , intending to take the stage from there on the next morning. The bar-room of the tavern was crowd ed with people, and I noticed that large numbers of the citizens were collected about the street corners, appearing to be discussing sorrie matter of more than usual interest. . Of course I became curious to know the. cause of all this, and at the first fa vorable opportunity I asked the question of tjie landlord. He gazed atrac a mo ment in sitence, and then with an omin ous shake.of the head, he gave me to understand that a most dreadful thing had happened ; but before" he? had ex plained lo me what it was, he was call ed. rWay to attend to other business. V soon found, however, lhat the ' dreadful thing' was the subject cf con versation all around me.; and by simply -listening, I gained an insight into the mystery. It seemed that there was to be a trial for. murder there on the next lay, and that the criminal was a 'young blacksmith, who had been born and brought up in the town, and who until the present time, had borne a character above reproach". 1 endeavored to find out the particu lars, nut l could ascertain little upon which to depend, for different people gave different accounts, and all who knew, anything of the matter were too much excited to speak calmly. The murder had transpired 'only about a week before, and consequently the f vent was fresh in the minds of the people. The only facts that came tome, up on which I could rely, were that a middle-aged man,- named Matthew Hamjv fon, had been murdered and robbed and that Abdel Adanls, the young black smith, had been arrested for the crime, and would be tried on the morrow. Some said that the murdered man's money, 'to the'amount of over two thou sand dollars, had been fotnid upon the young man's person, but others denied this statement. Yet all sympathized with the prisoner. He was beloved by all his townsmen, and but a few of them could believe anything of the reports that had crept into circulation.- , As I was in no particular haste, I re solved to remain in M until the tri al hod come off; so I went and erased my name from the stage book, where I naa piacea ir, ana then intormed my nost oi my determination. On the following mornine, at an ear ly hour, the people began to tlock toward the court house, and I saw. that if I would secure a place, crowd. I did so, and I must join the at length found myself within the building, and, as good fortune would have if, 1 made a stand near the prisoner's box. Ten o'clock was the hour fixed for opening the court, and before that time every: con ceivable standing place outside the dock was filled. Stagings were erected out side under the windows, and these, too, were crowded. -. At the appointed time the court came in, and the prisoner was conducted to the box. Said prisoner was not more than five and twenty years of age. He .possessed one of the most pleasing coun tenances I. ever saw. .It was one of those bold, frank faces, full of courage and good nature just such an one as is unhesitatingly taken as the index to a pure and generous souk He was a stout and athletic man, and carried the palm at every wrestling match in the county. I. thought within myself, this nian is t no-murdercr. r Ahd yet we know not to what extremities a man may sometimes be driven." Young -. Adams was quite ' pale, "and his nether lip quivered as he iorjnd the;; gaze of the multitude fixed Upon him : but his eye was bright and quick,but not defiant, yet bold and hope- a ful itv its deep blue light. The trial commenced. . The indictment was clear and distinct, setting forh the fact that the prisonerAbdel. Adams 'did, with majice aforethought,'.. ki!If &c, on such a.day; one MatthewHampton in the first place by striking hiai on. the head with some very blunt weapon and in the second place, by stabbing him in the breast, Sic. To nil, the prisoner plead 'not gnil ty. From the first testimony called up, I learned the following facts: - ' Near Sundown, one. afternoon, about a week prciyous, -Matthew Hampton stopped at the shop of the prisoner to get his horse shod. This H. mpton was a wealthy far uier, and his estate lay on the southward near the Tennessee line, and only about fifteen miles distant from M . He was known to have Bome two thousand dollars with him at the time money which he had.' received at Columbia, for corn. It was - nearly dusk when he started from the pris oners shop.- He took out his pocket book to pay for the job of shjeing hi horse. This he did within the shop and two per sons were now present who testified to the fact, and also that, when the pocket book was opened,, large bunch of bank notes was exposed. .. About an hour after Hamp ton left, the prisoner came out of his 6hop and went to Instable, and having saddled his fleetest horse, he mounted and started oft", at full gallop, in the direction which Hampton had taken. .Next-came two witnesses, 'Mr. Simple and Mr.' Jordan,' both of them respectable citizens of M who testified as follows: They had been t the edge of Tennessee on business, and were returmriHiome. At about nine o'clock, on the evening in ques two, they came to a point in the road where a high blulToverlooked the way ; and while passing this, they were startled by seeing something in the moonlight that looked like a man. They at nee dismounted,' and found that what they had seen was the bo dy of 'Matthew Hampton, all gore covered and bleeding; They bad not been there more than a -minute, when they were join ed by a third "man, wha saul that he had seen the murder conimfued,; and- that the murderer had fle3 toward M . Simple and Jordan both recognized, this new corner as Henry Bilger, and though hte character was by no means of the most exenTplary kind, yet lhat was no time for discussion. The body of Hatirpton was still warm, so that the murderer could not have beef! gone long. Birger bad no horse so Mr. Simple agreed to remain by the body while Jordan &nA Bilger went in pursuit of the murderer. .They put their horses to the top of their speed, aud in half an homr they overtook ihe prisoner, whom Bi!gcr at once pointed out as the man. Jordan bail ed the young blacfeSmith and "found him nervous and excited. ' 1I? then asked him if he had -seen Matthew Ha-mpton, and Adams replied in the affirmative, bait he spoke in a very strange mariner. After some expostulation, the prisoner accompa nied Jordan to M , and there he was pla ced in the hands of the sheriff ; and upon examining his person, Mr. Hampton's pock et book, containing two thousand dollars, was found upon him, ana his hniis were also covered with blood. , - At this juncture, the excitement ia the liule court room was intense. The crowd ed mass swaj-ed to and fro like windswept grain murmurs broke-toe sanctity or tjie place- nvurmurs loud and deep ; and it was tew -minutes betore anyirung liKe oruer was restored. . At length Henry Bilger was called upon tlie stand. He was known by most of the people of M , and though nothing, posi tive was known a-rainst him of a criminal natnre, yet he was known to be a reckless, wandering fellow, sometimes trading , in slaves, and sometimes dealing in horses, and sometimes driving a flat-boat down the Mississippi. He stepped upon the witness es' stand with a complaisat.t bow, and he gave in his testimony clearly and. distinct- He said he was coming down tne roau toward M , n foot, and when near the bltiff he heard the sound of a struggle, ac companied by loud groans and entreaties. He sprang forward, and arrived in season to see the prissier leap iirto his saddle and ride off. The moon was shining at the time, so he could not have been mistaken. As soon as he found Mr. Hampion was, as he opposed dead, he started to go after help. The murdered man's horse fled to wards home, so he could gain no assistance in that way. He had not gone far, howev er, when he head the sound of horses feet, and on turning to the slope he found Sim ple and Jordan there. I Bilger was cross questioned very severe ly, but his testimony was not to be flawed. He was explicit in all his statements, and at the same tiqae he professed to feel a deep regret that he was caljej- upon jo testify against a man for whom he felt as much respect as he did for the prisoner.' At length young Adams arose to tell his story. He spoke clearly, and with the tone of a man who tells the truth. He said about an hour after. Matthew. Hamp ton had left his shop, on the evening in question, he went to the sink and wnsTied his hands, and while there he trod on some thing that attracted his attention. He stooped and picked it up, and found it lo be a pockejjiook, and on taking it to the light it proved to be Mr. Hampton's. He re membered that after Mr. Hampton had paid him for shoeing the horse, he went to the sink after a drink of water, and that he must have dropped the book. The young blacksmith's first idea, he said, was to keep the book" until Mr. Hampton came back, but upon a second thought, he resol ved to saddle his horse and overtake him, and restore the money. Accordingly he set off. and when he reached the bluff his horse stopped and began to rear and snort. He discovered something - lying by the roadside, and upon dismounting and going to it be found it to be the body of Mr. Hampton, still warm and bleeding. He firsf-sajisfied himself thai he could do no thing alone, and then he started back to ward M- for assistance. When he- was overtaken by Jordan and Bilger, the idea of. having Hampton's money with him, broke upon him with a stunning force, and hence his strange and incoherent manner. , When the prisoner sat down there was a low murmur, which told that his story was believed. But the judge shook his head, and tha lawyer did the same, and the jury looked troubled and anxious. The prison er's counseldid all he could to establish his client's good character, and also to im peach the character of Bilger, but he could not efute the testimony given in. When the judge come to charge the jury, he spoke of the testimony against the pris oner, -and of The corroborative circumstan ces. With regard to the prisoner's story, he said iL was very much like troth, but he l'ould have t e iurv remember how easily such stories could be made. It was long after dark when the jury re tired to make-up their verthct. They were gone half an hour, and when they return ed the foreman showed by the very hue of his countenance, that the verdict was fatal ! All saw it, and I could hear the throbbing of the hundred hearts that beat about me. ' ' Gentlemen of the jury, have youiiuade . verdict?' ' We have.' . '.''-'" i Shalfyour foieman speak for you V ' Yes.' 1 Abdel Adams, stand uo and look the foreman in the face.' (Kaw,sir,is Abdel Adams, prisoner at the bar, guilty of murder or not i' Hark!. 1 he first syllable of the word 1 guilty is upon the foreman's lips, but Le speaks it .not. Those who yet crowd about the,wmdows shout with all their might, and in a moment more a man crowds his way into the court room, tie hurries up and whispers to the sheriff an t then he goes to the bench Cand whispers ta the judge. Henry Bilger starts up and moves towards the door but in an. instant the hand of the sheriff is on him. All is excitement the most intense. Directly the mass at the door begins to give way, and four meft are seen bearing upon- their shoulders a chair a large stufled chair aTid in the chair sits Matthew. Hampton-not dead but alive. True, he ia pale and ghastly, but his eyes are open and his lips move. At length.the chair is 6et down before tha bench, and the old physician of M asks permission to speak. As soon as this fact becomes known, all is quiet once more. ! The j hysician says that neither. ofte wounds which Mr. Hampton had received are mortal, though he had sx. first thought they were. The blow upon tne .head, and the stab in the breast combined to produce a stale of catalepsy, which resembled death so nearly that many an experienced person migTu hajre been deceived. . When brer'gave out that Mr. Hampton wa& ;.de&, he thought that it was so. Batrwben he found that Mr. Hampton ' wa.S living, h.e kept jhe secret to hunself ifor fear that a certain man, whose presence was much needed, mijrht be missing. - 1. At this junctureVMr. Henry Bilger made a savage attempt to break tfway from the sheriff,but it did not avail JnraS The jury were directed to retuai to "tlieir box, and then MaMhew Hampton w.as requested tv speak- He.was too weakjto'ris- but e spoke plainly, and ia a Hianner thatjKow ed hjs-mind to be clear.; ; He stated" that when be reaehed ihe bluff on the night of. The disaster, he dis covered that bis pocket book was gone. He stopped his iforse and was trying to think where he could have lost it,- when some one came up from the road-sile. He hair just thane to see that it was Henry Bil ger, when he received a Wow upon tfie head from a clublhat knocked him from his horse. Then fie felt aharp, stinging, burning pam in his bosom, i and .witha,tmo- mentary starting of the muscles he opened his eyes. ' He saw that Bilger was stoop ing over him and ransacking' his pockets. He could not remember of hearing the dis tunt gallop of a horse-r-tht he thought that fits body was dragged to tFto road-sfdo" ami after 4baf he could remember, noth ing till he awoke in his own.hOnse, ami found the doctor by his bed-side. For a litilc while; longer. the mulMtutUs had to restrain, themselves. J remember that the judge said something to the jury, anil that the jury whispered together for a moment- Then the prisoner stood up once more and ihe foreman of the jury sai' 'Not Guilty ' - Then burst forth a hearty shou of" the people. Abdel Adams sank back upon his seat, and in a moment more he, was seized by" a score of stout men, and with wild and rending shouts-, they bore hint in to the free, pure air, where the bright stars looked down and smiled upon them. A little way hadjthey gone when they met a-J young woman, whose hair was flowing m the night wind, and who wrung her band inxigoi3'. They stooped and set their bur den down. Abdel Adams saw the woman, and he sprang forward and caught her to his" bosom. ' Mary Mary I'm innocent innocent, 1 from The wife did not ppeak. She only citing wildly to her noble husband and wpt up on his boSom. A wogo'i body was torn from its axle trees the blacksmith and his vife were placed thereon, and .then the.y"wer,e borne away toward their home, and long after they nad .passed from my sight, I epuld hear the glad shouts of the impulsive peo ple, waking the night air, and reverberating ainojig the distant hills. On the next .morning,' beforo the stage started, I luarnedahat Matthew Hampion had dejermined to make the. young black smith accept a thousand dollars whether he was willing or not. Two weeks afterwards, while sitting in the cilice of a hotel at.CincinnatiI receiv ed newspapers from M . Henry Bil ger had been banged ; and on the gallows acknowledged his guilt. Matther Tlamp ton was slowly recovering ; and the black smith had, after much expostulation, ac cepted the thousand dollars from Hamp ton's bounty. ... NOTICE.
