10 NEW YO HERALD, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 1868—TRIPLE SHEET. THE EVANGELIZITION OF SPANISH AMERICA, THE GALLOWS. SPAIN AND Bxecution of the Negro Tom Ryno for the Murder of the White Man Jobn Kt. Leggett Confession of Condemned Mav—Tragic Results of Intemperance. WiLLiams70N, N.C., Nov. 13, 1868, A sharp, quick and decisive blow of @ hatchet, ‘and the fatal rope is snapped in twain; a heavy thud, followed by @ Jerk, and the body of Tom Ryan, a negro, was to-cay suspended be- ‘ween heaven and earth, Hanging, perhaps the most revolting mode of enforcing the extreme penalty of the law known to modern civi!- ized nations, and Jooked upon by many as a relict of barbarism has been realized here to-day in ail tts horrors. But blood cried from the earth for biood; the hand of a fellow man was red with that or another; and stern justice meted out the terribie vengeance which assuredly fosiows the commiseico of the foul crime of murder, TAR CRIME, For atrocity it has scarcely a paratiel in the !ong A meeting was held last evening in the Spanish Episcopai church of Santiago, Twenty-second street, near Fifth avenue, at which several addreases were made on the progreas of evangelical misstonary work in Spain and Spanish America and the project broached of founding a Spanish co!lege in connection wita the church, The attendance comprised about three dozen persona, ai] of whom appeared to be Span- jards, Prayer was said by the rector of tne church, Rey. Mr. Rilny. after which various hymns in Spanisd were very finely rendered by a contra!to voice in the choir. Kev. Mr. Ruay stated the object of the meet- tng. which was almost solely to provide means for carrying out on a larger scale and with more zeal and energy the work of evangelizing Spain and &panish america. Mr. Pama, of Havana, was introduced and made an accress in Spanish, im which he said that they had every reason to render thanks to God that such @ revoiction had occurred in the government of jist that have been expiated upon the scaffold. spate is Le et ihe eveagelical ve Frenzied with the fumes of vile !iquor which he had | #100 an opportuaity ifuse freely the gps o! been drinking, the negro Ryan came to astore in beripturai doctrine, to build churcnes and schools and regenerate the ncble race of which the victim Leggett, a young white man, was Kev.

In the pursuit of bis business he was diligent and attentive, civil and courteous to his customers, and above reproach as to character. To the negroes he was unusually kind and agreeable, and enjoyed among them an enviable reputation as ‘a gemman."” It has beep remarked by wany that he invariably made it a point to refuse them liquor when he was aware they had already partake of a quantity Which might produce intoxication. These and other good traits are freely mentioned by many colored men in the neighborhood of the terrivie tragedy. THE ARREST AND TRIAL of the murderer followed speedily. An incensed and outraged community, assisted by the efiicers of the Jaw, were soon upon his tracks, and despite lis efforts to pxape Ryan was eee and lodged in . i 10, among th With ourselves, areiaboring in the cause ing thetn the true friends anc lovers of t esolved, That the Chures of these resolutions to our fellow Chri urging them to iabor earn ightens the sou} and that can make # ba- tion truly free, happy and grea Resolved, That & copy of these resolutions be forwarded to the Spanish government as an expression of the deep jo: which we feelin common with ail the evangelical Chareb of Christ, in their effort to establish liberty of worsulp.

Mr. Sherman said he had a resolution to offer in reference to che founding of a Spanish college, but as there were hardiy any Americans present, and as he wished to have the subject fully discussed, he would refrain from submitting it just then, A col- lection was then taken up and the congregation dis- persed. four more had been sent to their long homes ere he ever saw his last victin, Such was the tenor of his semarks, which so loathed and disgusted his few hearers that they turned and went from his presence as though he were a demon. In obedience to the comtuand of the Court he was taken to the jail at Washimgton, Beaufort county, because of thé inse- curity of and the opportunities afforded by that at Williamston for escape. While here his desperate energies did not relax, and as the time grew shorter to the fatal day approached he made several as- ishing efforts to escape. which were only frus- trated by the vigilance of the officers of the jail. THE PREPARATIONS for the final tragedy were ali completed on Thursday, under the supervision and direction of Sherif Craw- ford, Heretofore, under the old regime. executions, not untrequent in this State, invariably took piuce in public, and thousands, attracted by a morbid curi- bsity, flocked from near and far to witness the Pn gee agonies of a fellow creature. Young and old, male and female, blacks and whites, were wont to assemble together on these occasions as if some brilliant tournament, some grand display, or, at least, some pleasing b ompiagrss were to greet their vision. Now, however, thanks tothe last Legislature, exe- cutions are in future to be private, witnessed only by a necessary few, and the hungry crowd will be spared the coveted though revolting spectacie of a In conformity with this very excellent law a piank wall, some twelve feet in height, taking im an enclosure sufficient for the purposes of the exe- had been ec! in rear of the Court House Sawa oe Within vp ng Cie Cdl a jure, composed of the ordinary uprigiits, erosabeam and drop.

THE NATIONAL CHRISTIAN CONVENTION. First Day’s Proceedings—Organization—Intere esting Discussion. The Nationa! Christ:an Convention opened its ses- ston yesterday morning at ten o'clock, at the Re- formed Protestant Datch church, on the corner of Fifth avenue and Twenty-ninth street, in this city. This is a somewhat peculiar assembly, perhaps unique in its composition and character and difer- ing from any other detiberative body of any Chris- tian church. Jt isin the frat place not a delegate, but a mass convention, at which all who attend are members and voters, whether male or female, though the ladies present have so far abstained from active participation. Then the Convention is not limited to any one denomination, and all Protest- ants, of whatever schooi or sect, are entitied to seata. Hence there are Baptists— whether there are any of the “hardshell’’ order among them has not yet appeared, though one gentleman announced himself an Anglo- Baptist, whatever that may be—Presbyterians of the old and new schools, Uuitarians, Congregationalists, Methodists, with a sprinkling of Episcopalians of the low church order and of the more advanced, go- cailed radical tendency. And further, being com- posed as it is, it bas no legtelative authority in the church, in fact no authority whatever, and there- fore it 18 no deliberative body in the strict meaning of the word, but meets soiciy for consultation, for a comparison of views, and not for debate or deiibera- tion, and the business of the Convention 1s confined to the discussion of certain selected ‘topica,”’ to which any member may speak a limited time. and for the discussion of each an hour and a half:s allowed. These discussions are abruptly terminated when the limit of the time is reached, and that is about ali that ts done. The Convention was called to order by Rev. Dr. BUDDINGTON, Who moved that Mr. D.

POUGHKEEPSIE, Nov. 16, 1868. Isformation has reached here of a terrible and mysterious murder in Ulster county, three mites east ofthe village of Accord. The victim is a beauttfu’ woman, twenty-five or thirty years of age. She was found by the roadside w&h two builet holes in ber head, her Jaw fractured and the back of her bead smashedin, She was neatly attired in a brown striped alpacca dress, morocco boots,and had jet black hair and eyebrows. A colored man passing that way between three and five o’clock Sunday morning espled the body and notified the occupants of a farm house near by, They all then proceeded to the spot together, and upon examining the dying woman found that fe was not yet extinct, thoagh she waa unconscious. She was taken to a@ resi- dence near by and medical ald summoned, when, Upon examination, It was found that she was enci- ente. Her clothing was of the best, but nothing was found on her by which she could be identified; neither ‘se it known who committed the dee, though suspicion rests upon the son of a wealthy tanner near Elienville and aclerk in @ store at that place. There is ei a@ horridie mystery con- nected the affair, which all hope the morrow may unravel. The poor woman, strange to say, is sti! living, and every effort has been made to-day to restore her to consciousness without success. She Will in all probability die. Officers have been sent in search of the two men referred to above and they will probably be brought to Kingston to-mor- row. The news of the affatr has spread over a vast expanse of country and the greates' excitement re- sulted, simply because three days has eispset and yet no one knows who the be: urdered wo. man is or who !8 her murderer. A WICE LEGAL POINT. The Decision of Judge Cliflor’ 3. flow. land Will Case. {From the Boston Advertiser, Nov. 16.) The opinion stops jast short of that question in the case which was by the most interesting to the pablic. The complainant was charged with the ure to important papers. The question whether a person could write two signa- tures so as to exactly cover each other was itself one of peculiar interest. A large mass of evidence had been collected. The most eminent experts upon the subject cf handwriting had been called and examined, and it was alleged that the forgery had been mathematically demonstrated upon the doctrine of chances. It would have been interesting to have had a judictai decision on this point, for the determination of which such efforts had been made and expense in- curred. But this question as to the genuineness of the signatures the Court found it unnecessary to discuss, as upon other grounds the cause could not be sustained, It may not be improper, now that the cause has been decided, to suggest a conclusion, which, proba- bly, nine out of every ten who have thought upon the subject have reached, that this charge of forgery has not been made out by the respondents. Re- markable as it May seem that two signaimres can be made by the same person which exactly cover each other and which are at the same distance from the side and bottom of the page, vet the facts show that 1% has been done, and is done nearly every day in the community. Not to mention other considerations, which are numerous in so broad a field, the fact would seein to be conclusive that the signatures of Miss Howland to Ofty bilis of saie, taken indiscriminately, cover ¢ach other in @ remarkable manuer, and some of them quite as wel! as those which are alleged to have been forged. The ingenious speculations of the experta, and especi the fanciiul demonstrations me mathematicians, fail to convince ta view oPeuch stubborn t This, ho interestin, er, is apparently not the end of this case. It 18 not linpossible that the ques- tion of forgery may yet be passed upon by another tribanal, ¢ last stage is yet to be traversed—aa was generally expected, the case goes by appeai to Washington for final adjudication. A year, at least, and probably amuch longer time, must elapse before a deck of the Supreme Court of the United States be reac hed. MURDER TRIAL IN MARYLAND . jemart Murder—The Trin! of Martha Starkey. {Prom the Centreville Citizen, Nov. 14.) ase of State v8, Martha Starkey, for the mur- der of Rem: Guiliemart, was taken tp on Wednes- a To avoid the diMeculvy of obtaining a jury the counte, The G for the prisoner, Lloyd Tlighmaa and A. Emory, proposed to try the case before the Court, which proposition was accepted by the State's Attor- Mr, Keating. The evidence thus far has been wholly circumstantial and relates to the con- cition of the premises on the morning after the mur. position of the murdered man, the character of the wounds, There i# a large amount of this kind of evidence, mach more than we bave space to pudlish, none of which, unsupported, is sufficient, in our opinion, to convict the prisoner, The confes sions of the accused have not been admitted as evi- dence, in consequence of either threate or indace- m having been offered her previous to the mak- ing of these vtatements. The last witness called by the Pate on Thursday evening Was Mre, Thomas Q. Primrose, to whom, the State alleges, the prisoner made a voluntary state- meat prior to the making Of any threats or induce. ments, To the admission of this evidence the pris- oner’s counse! objected; but, in consequence of the absence of a witness by whom they expected to prove that threats had previously been made against the prisoner, they consented to the hear. ing of the evidence—its iegality to be determined after the testitnony of their witness should be heard. Mra. Primrose rtated, suustantialiy, that ehe visited the house of Mr. Guiilemart on the morning after the murder; found Mr. Guillemartt on the foor aead; went up stairs and found Mrs, Gutl- jemart severely Wounded ond ju an insensibie conde tion; went into the kitchen where Martua was; that Martha approached her and said that ehe (Mrs. Primrose) knew how much she (the prisoner) thought of Mre. Guillemart; she asked Martha who did the deed, and she replied that Nat Freeman did tu: that ashe and Liz Teeman (* he prison: 2 er’s sister) ¥ mart’s room; after ‘ fartha) went to the bare Couleman was sleeping, and told him that Mrs, Guillemart Was sick aud wanted to see him: that he got up and went to the house; passed through the kitchen into the dining room; that she closed the door jeading from ine kitchen to the dining room after him, when the fght took place; that she heard a terribie at ‘ ein the room and pushed the door open to see the Gent, At Uns point of Martha’s statement oer yas ties entered the kitchen, when the conve ion ceased between Mrs. Primrose and the prisoner, The marder, the prisoner said, occurred about day- break, The prisoner did not state who was in the room when Mr. Guillemart entered, nor did she state that she and Lizzie Freeman struck Mra, Guillemart, but that they “went up into the room. Since the above was in type the witness forthe defence—Milnor Jones—t.as been upon the stand and testifes that he had previousiy offered the prisoner inducements to reveal the murderer, The Court thereinag ruled ont ths prisoner's confession to Mrs. ID TOBE. ‘The democratic opponent of Noah Davis, in the Monroe and Orleans district, this State, claims that Mr. Dav'3 was on the day of election a Justice of the Supreme Court, and therefore under the consti- tution a votes cast for him were null and void. Judge Davis resigned on the 31st of October, but the claitn probably ts that the resignation was not effec- tive until received by the Governor.

(of the Governor's certificate of ail the names of electors), it should be found that one or more of said electors are absent, and shall fall to appear before nine o'clock in the morning of the day of election of President and Vice President as afore- said, the electors then present shall immediately pro- ceed to elect, by ballot, in presence of the Governor, @ person or persons to fi euch vacancy or vacancies as may have occurred through the non-attendance cfoneor more of the electors.” The law further provides for deciding by lot when there is a tie vote on the persons voted for to fi!) such vacancies, Gencral Graat went into aready made clothing stor¢ on Broadway the other day, bought a fifty dol- jar coat and paid for {t, ike ‘any other man,’? North Caroiina gives Grant 12,000 majority. In the Seventh Congressiona! aistrict Jones (republican) is elected by over 200 majority.
