times, I had seen so calm, ' are you aware

therefore, I shall be always spared it,- for

wards Christians, even when they seem
01ost miserable, and what we feel to be
,bove our strength, scarcely ever happens
0 us. We generally kuow ouly the exteri
or of man's character ; what passes within
.himself, may still afford new hints during
thousands of ages. Irreligion has rendered
the mind superGcial ; we are captivated
by the external appearance of things, by
pircurastonce, by fortune ; the true treas
ures of thought, as well as of imagination,
are the relations of the human heart with
iii Creator ; there are to be found pre
sentiments, there prodigies, there oracles,
and all that the ancients believed they sap
in nature, was but the n flection of what
they experienced withiu themselves, with
put their knowledge.'
Ascham and I were silent for some
time; an aneasincss pervaded ti e, and I
dared not express it, so much did it trouble
me. 'Have yon seen my husband ?' said I.
' Yes,' replied Aschm. ' Did you consult
falm 00 tbe ofler you were about to make
me t Yes,' answered he again. Finish, I
pray yon,' said I. If (juildford and my
conscience do not agree, which of these
two powers should be imperative on me V
' Lord Guildford, said he, 'did not ex press
an opinion on the part yon ought to take,
Isut, to him, bis resolution to jm rUh on
tbe scaffold, is immovable. 'Ob, my
riend,' cried I, how I thank you for hav
ing left me the merit of a choice ; if I hail
sooner knowu of the r solution of Guild
ford, I should not 1 vco have deliberated,
and love would have been sufficient to ani
mate me to wbat religion commands.
Should I not share the fate of such a hus
band.? Should I spare myself a single one
Cf Lii sufferings J Aud dots not every
step of his towards death nmrk my path
also?' Ascham then perceiving my reso
lution not to be shaken, departed from tm
sad and pensive, promising to see me
again.
Doctor Ftckeuhum, chaplain to the
.queen, eume a few hours after, to un 0011 net
to me, that the day of my death was fixed
for the next Friday, from which five day
still separated me. I acknowledge to you
it seemed as if i were prepared for nuth
ing, so much did the designation of a day
appul me. I tried to conceal my emotion
but Feckenham undoubtedly perceived it
for he hastened to avail himself of my
.trquble, to tflbr me life, if I would change
my religion. You see, my worthy friend
that God came to my assistance at that
moment, for the necessity of repulsing an
ofler, .so .unworthy of aje, restored to me
the strength I had lost.
Doctor Feekenbom wished to enter into
controversy with me, which I prevented
by observing to him, ' that my understand
ing being necessarily obscured by the situ
atioo in wbjo.h (I was placed, 1 should not
dying as 1 was, discuss .truths of which I
had been convinced when my mind was in
all its strength.' He endeavored to in
timidate me, by saying that he should see
jme no more, .neither in this world nor in
Heaven, Irom which my religious belief
bsd excluded me. ' You would occasion
me more alarm than my executioners,' re
pli'd I, if I could believe you ;' but the
religion to which we sacrifice life, is al
ways the trye one for the heart. The light
of reason is very vacillating in questions
of eueh moment, and I cling to the princi
pie of sacrifice ; ol that J can have no
doubt.'
This conversation with doctor Fecken
ham revived my dejected soul ; Providence
had just granted what Ascham desired for
me, a voluntary death ; I did not destroy
myself, but 1 refused to live; and the
scaffold accepted by my will, seemed no
longer but as the altar chosen by the vic
tim. To renounce life when we can pur
chase it, but at the price of conscience, is
the only kind of suicide which should be
permitted to a virtuous being".
Convinced I had done my duty, I (lured
to count upon my courage ; but soon again
my attachment to existence, with which I
liud sometimes reproached mvself. in the
lays of my felicity, revived in my feeble
heart. Ascham came again the next day,
and we visited once more the borders ol
the Thames, the pride of our delightful
country. I endeavored to resume my hu
bi'uul subjict8 of conversation. I recited
some passages from the beautiful poetry of
the Iliad and from Virgil, that we had
studied together ; but poetry serves above
all, to penetrate us with a tender enthusi
asm for existence ; the seductive mixture
of thoughts and images, of nature an.) the
soul, of harmony, of lunguuge, and of the
emotions it retraces, intoxicates us with
the power of feeling and admiring ; and
these pleasures no longer exist for me! I
then turned the conversation to the more
severe writings of the philosophers. As
cham considers Plato as a soul predestined
to Christianity ; but even he, and the
greater part of the ancients, are too proud
of the intellectual strength of tbe human
mind ; they .enjoy so much of the faculty
of thought, that their desires do not lead
them towards another life they believe
they can produce an evocation of it in
themselves, by the energy of contempla
tion ; I also once derived the purest delight
from meditating upon Heaven, genius, and
nature. At tbe remembrance of this, a
senseltsa regret of life took possession of
me. I represented it to myself in coiors
compared with which, the world to cope
appeared no more than un abstraction des
titute of charms. ' JJow,' said I to myself.
will the cteruul duration of sentiment be
qual to this succession of hope and fear,
which renews, in, so lively a manner, the
tendercst afflcliors? Will the knowledge
of the mysteries of the uuiveise ever equal
the inexpressible attraction of the veil
which covers them I Will certainty liuve
the flattering illusion of doubt ? Will the
brilliancy of truth ever uQ'ird as much en
joyment, as the research and the d scovcry
of it ? What will youth, hope, memory,
affection be, if the course of time is ar
rested ? It) fine, can the Supreme Being,
in all his glory, give to the creature a more
enchanting present than love?'
I humbly confess to you, my wo-thy
friend, that these fears were impious. As
cham, who, in our conversation the even
ing before, had appeared leas icligious than
myself, at once availed h iiiulf of my re
bellious grief. You ought not,' said he,
' to make use of benefits to cast a doubt
upon the power of the benefactor, whose
gift is this life that you regret ? And if
its imperfect eijiyments seem to you so
valuable, why should you believe .ihe-u ir
reparuble? Ccituinly t.ur iuiaginaliou it
self may conceive of something bitter than
this eaith; but, if it be umyu.il 10 this, is
it for us to consider the Deity merely as a
poet, who is unable to produce a .second
work superior to the first?' This simple
rejection restored me to mvself, and
.blushed at the obliquity into which the
dreud of death had betrayed we J jOhl my
friend! what it casts me to fathom this
thought-! Abysses, still deeper aud deeper
open under each otheH
la four days I shall no longer exist
that bird which flies through the air will
survive me ; I have Ies9 time to live than
he; tbe inanimate objects which surround
me will preserve their form, and nothing
of me will remain upon eurth, but the re
membrance of my friends. Inconceivable
mystery of tbe soul, which foresees its end
here below, and yet cannot prevent it. The
band directs the coursers who conduct us;
thought cannot obtain a moment's victory
over death ! Pardon my weakness, oh my
father in religion, you, who have so tender
ly cherished me, we shall be reunited in
Heaven ; but shall I still hear that affect
ing voice winch revealed to me a Uod of
mercy ? Shall these eyes coi. template
your venerable features ? Ob, Guildford!
oh, my husband 1 you whose noble figure
is unceasingly present to my heart, shall I
beliold you again, such as you are, among
the angels w-hose image you are upon
earth ? But, what do I say ? My feeble
soul desires nothing beyond the tomb but
the actual leturn of life! ,
Tm'RSD.vy.
My husband has requested to see me to
day for the last time. I have avoided that
moment in which joy and despair would be
too closely blended. I dreaded the loss of
the resignation I now feel. You have seen
that my heart has had but too much at
tachment to happiness; let me not relapse
into it again, fily father, do vou approve
of me ! Has not this sacrifice expiated all?
I no longer fear that existence will still be
dear to nie.

Oh! niy father! I have 3cen bici ! he

whom be was conducted. Guildford raised
his eyes towards my prison, then directed
them still higher ; I understood him : he
continued 00 his way. At the turn of the
road which leads to the place where death '
prepared for both of us, he stopped to
behold mo once more ; his lust looks bless

Daily Greenville News.
The sensation of yesterday in Greenville
was the expected trial of Major Lewis R.
Redmond, the famous moonshiner and
outlaw. A numerous crowd gathered in and
about the Court House to see the prisoner
and hear the legal tilt that was expected
to take place. At about half-past ten
o'clock Redmond was driven from the jail,
in a carriage accompained by two Peputy
Marshals, and was taken to the baek door
where he was quickly ossbtcd to dismount.
He passed up the steps on his crutcbes and
took a seat immediately in front of the
clerk's dtt-k to the Rwft of (o. A C.
Garlington, his oenoir counsel.
The prisoner was neatly dressed, his coat
and vest being of light check cloth, the
vest being open almost to the wait and
displaying a spotless shirt bosom sur
mi unted by a white turn-over collar and a
narro;v black ti'. He was cle'anly shaven,
and as he sat iu the court room was un-
dub'edly a handsome man. lie fanned
himself willi a lady's gaily-worked fun, and
seemed comparatively at ease, cxcrpl for
an occasional not ungraceful embarrass-,
me nl as to the disposition of his hands !
and fett, when he would remembe r that he ,
was the centre of observatiem. Occasionally
something like a smile was to be seen on ,
his lpe, but there was no emillirg in hi
fucc uLd ryes. The latter were coiutuntly j
shifting about with the quick, frank looks
that are the great attractions of his man.
ner, and that impress all who observed
them with the thought that their owner
would not do a mean or dishonest thing,
and would meet without flinching any fate
that might confront him. He looks in
perfect health, and were it not for the
stjOPy bent leg, his lithe, strong frame is as
good and sound as it used to be in the
pleasant days a few years ago when he
rode with his .band among the mountains
free as tbe air that nourished him, and
cheerily defied the whole United States
government, and alternately eluded and
pursued its cflicers. His general demeanor
was that of a man who bad been brought
to account for the sins of his youtb, bad
made op his mind to undergo philoso
phically whatever punishment be was to
receie, and took little more than passing
interests in the preliminary formalities.
Judge Melton moved to take up case
No. 10 on the docket which Judge Bryan
stated was au indictment against Lewis R.
Redmond for conspiracy.
At tbe request of Gen. Garlington tbe
name of Isaac M. Bryan, Esq., was enter
ed as additional counsel for the prisoner.
The jury was charged, indictment being
defined as one for conspiracy and violation
of Section 5518 Revised Statutes.
Gen, Garlington said : .
''May il Please Your Honor When. I
consider tbe circumstances which surround
the case of the prisoner at the bar which
have preceded this occasion, and which
now attend it, when tbe sympathetic
chord, which vibrates through this hall
and is Been in tbe faces of men, meets with
a r(S)08e in my own bosom ; when I con
sider tbe character of the charges which
have been preferred against the defendant,
and upon which he has been brought hero
from another State for trial ; and, possibly,
what may be the judgement of tbe Court
which is now suspended over him ; wheh
the events of his past life and his present
condition of suffering arc presented to my
mind and senses; when J see his proud'
spirit humbled by the combination of cir
cumstances which weigh him down ; when
the scene, where his humble home fur away
in the mountains, awaits tbe tidings of to-
elavjis pictured 10 my imagination ; wbe 11
I rul ze what may be expected of counsel
in such a case, aud feel tbe responsibility
which rests upoii them in adopting the
course which has been deternJned upon in
the eases against him; when all these
thoughts and. -emotions stir my mind and
heart, I asture you, moy it please your
Honor, tLat never be-fore huve I appeared
in a court of just'ee utder such deep feel
ings of embarrassment as on this occasion.
But, sir, tbe die is cist. We have no alter
native ; but one course is left us to pursue
We feel powerless before a jury , we can
not resist tbia prosecution, sustained by
the evidence upon which, we conceive, it is
founded, and which would be produced
agaiust the defendant, if put upon bis trial
Wc, therefore,., submit to the inevitable
bow btfore the mnjrsty of the law, and
cast his '..fortunes upon the mercy cf the
Court, in the fullest confidence, that when
your Houor shall come to discbarge the
sad duty of imposing upon him the penalty
of tbe law, that cleuieucy will be extended
to him, which, we belitve, his case merits,
aud which we know your Honor's kindly
nuiure will grant, as far as may be con
sistent with obligations of duty."
I would be pleased, may it please your
Honor, to present, at this time, to your
Honor's consideration the- grounds upon
which we ask fer a merciful exercise of
the power which belongs to your Honor,
in pussing finally upon tbeelefeiidant's case.
But this would not be iu accordance with
precedent ; I therefoie forbear any thing
further now, reserving what I shall have to
say o this sulj 'Ct till the defendant is
called to the bar for seutence, when we
hope to be able to present his case iu such
a light as will not only justify, but invoke
the fullest measure of mercy that the char
acter of his cQclccs against the law will
allow. We are instructed by the defendant,
and it is in accord with our own opinion,
to withdraw defences iu tbe cases before
the court, and adopt the old plea, nolle con
Undifefpvslht in $raticum regis in other
words, we content that vtidicts be rendered
against the defendant in tbe cuses which
the Government hua against him ut this
term."
Case No. 10 was submittal to Jury No.
2, and the formal vadict of '(iui.'tr ss to
Le wis Ii, Redmond," signed by the lore
man. -
Judge Hryati said that as counsel had
spoken it was (m:W proper that the court
nhoulj say a few words logo out with his
t deepen the convict ien lhat mu-l xi-i
in all minds that the unhappy defendant
would always have come to justice ttmper-
ed with mercy. If there was a tie feat in
this administration it was its severity but
rather its undue teudtruss towards ptis
oners who came beore it for judgement.
The unhappy defendant had not consulted
the best interests of himself and the justice
of tbe country and what was due the
administration of the law in failing to meet
his country. His Honor thought the pris
oner hid been ill advised in shunning the
country in not being prepared to meet it
The goveruinent baeLfceen most anxious to
condone the past, and the prisoner had had
the opportunity to avail himself of prof
fered cle mency. There were two exceptions
to that clemency, however offences risiiisr
higher than violations of the laws of the
revenue conspiracies which reached th-3
government itself, and threatened the
destruction of law and order. Tbe defendant
had been unwilling to meet bis country and
a jury of his couutry on those charges.
He could only say regarding the punish
ment to be inflicted that his duty wus to
dispense the law, and enforce its sanction?).
The prerogative of mercy was in anotl t-r
department of the government. He did
not doubt that tbe President would take
the circuaistanccs into consideration and
deal mercifully, though the prisoner bad
been a persistent offender, and hud led many
others into trouble. Every consideration
that could mitigate his punishment nould
be beard. Tbe defendant, however, could
not depend upon the Court to dispense
with the sanctions of the law. The Court
had no doubt that the prisoner could up.
peal hopefully, but was compelled to refer
him to tbe President for mercy. Jiis su I
ferings aud repentance, however, would be
taken into consideration.
Case No. IT was submitted to Jury No-
1, und disposed of in tbe same way.
District Attorney -Melton announced
that case No. 2, ulso for conspiracy, would
be discontinued.
Cases No. 106 and 107, informations.
were then called, and the same verdicis of
Guilty " consented to. Judge Melton
said both of these were prior to April 30th,
1S77, aud in response to a question f'n m
Bryan, said he made that auuouoesnu'ut
to indicate to tbe prisoner that tbe oflt:! ses
were those committed before the uimnsty,
of which he could have tuken advantage
bad he seen fit to do so
Cases No. 108 and ICO, informations, I
for offenses committed subst ciuently to the
amnesty, were t'.ieu Cul'.td and ver.iicti ol
"Guilty" entered.
Tbe same course was taken in cases Ncs
114. 115, 11G and 117, all being infor
mations for violations of the llevemr.' laws
prior to April 3.1th, 1878. Judjje Melton
stating that there was no charge for distil
ling ufter April oOtb, 187S. He then
announced that the proceedings agins
Ltwis R. Redmond were concluded.'
In response to a suggestion by Gen,
Garlinglen, Judge Bryan said that of course
he meant that tbe prisoner had bien ill
advised when he failed to submit to the
terms of the amnesty, and intimated his
approval of the course iu pletieling "Guilty.'
District Attorney Meltou moved fur tin.
committal' of. the prisoner to jail to await
sentence, and the mo' ion was granted.
Ri'dmoiul thereupon look his crutclusus
they were handed hiiu and limped out
through the buck dt.or, his face having
ntvtr changed in color or ex pressiou during
the proeeedingsT""'
As -kYA be seen, he has pleaded guilty to
eight violations of the revenue laws, and
two indictments for conspiracy. The max
imum .punishment ' fir the li'imtr is two
ycais ii-r eaeh, and fcr the two latter six
y tars et eli, a: d tie minimum two mouths
and two years rtspictive-y. ' The total
maximum punishment that can ba given
him then fore is twenty-eiht years confine
ment ; the miuiuiu'i p'inis.hm nt five vetrs
and four month?. The general feeling
seems to bo that he will be sentenced to
sonK'wlit-iHMibeaut-tcn ycavs. It is hardly
probable, however, that he will sxfve h.ili'
of that. The government is very favurably
disposed toward him, and thestrong petition
lhat will be sent for pardoner commutation
will not be oj posed with any force.
"1 believe,"' said a repr sei t.itivc of
the Daily AV.-.-v cf District Attorney Mi--ton,
"if I had been Ridmt nd I would have
given you a fight for it anyhow,"
Yes;" replied the Judge, "and the con
sequence would have been that you'd have

Tht re he wus visiiod by his old enemy

character, and he usaeitetl that the, moon

nmn in Pickens and Ntrth Carolina a
stuttnient which w;ts promptly re-luted and
disproved by Deputy Hherill' Foster.
When Uurton went up amirs, Redmond
rose, shook hands ami betrayed lack of
recognition in his enquiring countenance.
Barton is the man who enptured Redmond
and lost him, bt img himself shot in the
skirmish and having his house subst quently
raided and searched by the bold outlaw
who impropriated some hundred dollars
that he found there in payment fur what
Barton had tuken from him.
.Birton .introduced himself, Redmond
avowing that he knew his face, but not his
name. Redmond then recogniz d him,
remarking that he looted older than when
he had fecu him last. '
The two soon begun to txchare recrimi

shooting him. Redmond denied it, asked
how he could have shot when they hitd
taken Lis gun away from him, and said he
would not have escaped if Barton and his
men had treated him ' hue a gentleman,"
instead of coming on hint with levehdguns,
tieing and kicking 'him.' Barton denied
the kicking. R'dioond re iti rated it, and
