Leaving hia almost uscon- scious victim, Thompson made haste to leave the locality, in order to evade arrest. The girl, upon recovering her sanses, made known the’ dreadfal oocurrence, and the Sheriff goon started in pursnit of the biack brate, who in the struggle with his victim bad been bitton on the face by ber.

The mob seized hold of their victim, and, after tying his hends behind hia Dback, put s rope around his neck aod & drag- ged him ont of the jail. After carrying bim s short distance to the depot, near the very spot where he had committed the besst- 1y crime, he was swung to s besm. The dis- guised party remained uutil life was extinct, aud then mysteriously disappeared in the darkness of the night.

C., July 24.—The Attorney- General bas seot to the President a long opinion in the Chorpenning case, reviewing the yarions acts of Congress relating thereto, and 4he vari- ous decisions of the Supreme Courtand the Court of Claims, on which the principles gov- erning this case have beén fudicially consid- ered. The opinion is that the 443,000 found due by the late Postmaster-General cannot be paid since the repeal of the resolu- tion which referred the matter to the Postmas- ter-Gener: hat under the Jaw the Postmaster- General did not act as a Judge, but meraly as a minleter of €ongress; that bis finding is not in the nature of an award by an arbiter, and that the cago does nmot differ in principle from the case of Gordon vs, The United States (7 Walworth, 93); that the award of $10,972 ‘herotofore paid by Postmaster-General Brown to Mr. Chorpenuing, which was fonnd due under the reference to the Postmaster-General® made by the act of Coperess, did mot bind Chorpenning 8¢ that he could not appeal to Congress for more. On the other hand the At- torney-Genersl holds thst the present Post- master-Goneral is ot suthorized to pay the ad. ditional amount found due by the Postmaster- General for the reason that Congress repealed the resolution of reference before the money was paid.
