ue 6 THE GALLOWS. Execution of a Negro Murderer in Virginia. Particulars of the Crime---Discovery and Arrest of the Perpetrators. The Trial, Conviction and entence. SCENES ATTENDANT UPON THE EXECUTION, Kino GeorcE Court Hovss, el, June 17, 1870, Wiliam Taylor, a condemned negro felon, ex- plated a fearful crime on the scaffold here to-day—a crime of a triple nature, comprising murder, arson a robbery. _ ! THE OUTRAGE. On the night of the 26th of March last a shocking and atrocious tragedy Was cominitted in this county, The circumstances were of the most appalling char- acter, and manifested on the part of the perpetrators @ truly savage and brutal barbarism. On that night, 4n the lower part of the county, near a place called Borth Bend, on the Rappahannock river, a store, owned by a young merchant named F. W. Payne, was entered at the dead hour of midnight, the clerk, Willie Jett, a mere boy, murdered, the store robbed and then, together with the body of the murdered boy, burned, Such an event, Occurring in a peace- fui neighborhood, produced a sensation like a thun- der clap in a clear sky, and the excitement through- out the country was intense. At early dawn a large crowd had assembled round the burned débris of the store, out or which the charred bones of the Poor boy were taken. rybody cried for ven- geance; but as yet no clue could be obtamed as to the perpetrators of the foul dee ARREST OF THE PARTIES, Soon, however, as murder will out, the damning evidences of guilt fastened suspicion on certain colored desperadoes living in the vicinity, and war- Fants were at once obtuined for their arres', A party Was at once organized here, and, being we. mounted, they started for the scene of the outrage. Te otttcer and party arrived at the burned store in the afternoon, and such disposition at once mace Of the force as to insure the capture of the rob- vers aud murderers. Gne squad approacied the houses of the suspected persons, while another took a detour to the river bank in order to cut oif the retreat of any who might atienipt Lo escape.» It was noW night, and the avengers of blood had not long been in position when those at the river, in the shadow of the overhanging trees, discovered a boat addilng with muted oars slowly down the river. ndistinetiy two men could be seen in the boat, which was hailed when about twenty yards distant. Upon this tné men 1 the boat at ouce sprang into the river and began swimnuiing for the Opposite shore to escape capture. But their pursuers were not io’ be foiled, Two shots were fired at them {rom fowling Pieces, but they still continued to swim. It was this juncture it was feared they Would escape und wover of the darkness. With great jutrepidity, how - ever, Captain Spillman ran out to the river, Which, fortunately, Was not deep, reacued the boat, Into which he got, and called to the men, Whose heads alone were above the water, tO surreuder, or he would shoot tiem down. As soon as the party at tue houses heard the firing they rushed tuto houses and a man ran past thew, who was fred at, but without efiect, and he escaped in the dai ‘They at once hastened to the river, and by thei the two desperadves who were’ endeavoring to escape were scoured. These were found to be re- spectively William Taylor aud Warren Taylor, both large, athletic colored men, and noted, de: rate characters. So fearfully excited w some of the captors that it was with dificuity the officers could restrain them from LYNCHING the murderers, who were consequently defiant and insolent in their demeanor. The other man, who ‘Was shot at while running from one of the houses Where the gang lived, was George Miller, a young Negro thief, about seventeen years of age, a frequent inmate of the county jail. In the poat was found Several bags of merchandise of every varie\y usually to be found in a country store, which had peen taken from the burned building. 1t was well known that Others were implicated in the outrage, and a portion of the capturing party at once went to make a search, in doing which they had to make a circuit of many miles through the heaviest easterly rain storm and darkest night ever experienced by any of them. By next aay ail the persous concerned in the fiendish act were apprehended and lodged in the jail here under charge of the keeper. The names of the others were William Green, Fanny Taylor, Mary Taylor and Reuben Hill. Upou examination it was found that both the men taken in the river were wounded, though not seriously. They at once re- celyed aitentjon of @ physician and under care # eatiiént 800n recovered, Soon afterwards two ‘of the prisoners ie: CONFESSED the crime. One of them, Gcofge Miller, the young negro, said that he and Wiliam Taylor went to the store after midnight; that ne was in the habit of being there at ail hours and was quite fami)jiar with the little clerk Jett, He found no difeutty in in- ducing the clerk to rise and light his lamp for the [aay of selling Lim a vial of oti for a sick child, as said, As soon as the door was open they rushed ip and atlackea Jett. Jett then fed througi another door into the road, endeavoring to escape. He was jursued and beaten over the head with a gun until nsensible or dying. He was then dragged into the store still breathing and left there. The murderers then went home for others to assist in carrying oif the goods, and after taking all they wanted they saturated the floor of the storeroom with kerosene Oi and set it ou fire. The store was situated on a Jonely roadside remote from any human habitation, aifording every opportunity for tae perpetration of wuch a crime. THE TRIAL of the criminals took piace on the 6tn of May, before Judge J, B. Jeti, recently elected, it being his maiden court. He had a stormy inittation. In ad- dition to the seven culprits indicted for this crime there was a Woman charged with infanticide, all of these malefactors being colored, The evidence was {wil and convincing: for, besides the open admission of two of the murderers, there were Other ample proo’s. Commonwealth's Attor- ney F, C. 8. Huater conducted the prosecution with marked ability. Able lawyers were assigned by the Court for the defence, and during the trial the court room was constantly crowded by an exoited and deeply Interested audience.. Sentence of death was passed upon William Taylor, Warren Taylor and George Miller, Fanny Taylor was sentencéd to the Penitentiary for a term of fourteen years, Mary Taylor and William Greer tor terms of eight years, aud Reuben Hill was acquitted. Since, however, Gov- ernor Walker has commuted the sentence of George Miiler, on account of nis youth, to imprisonment for Jife in the Penitentiary, and he has resplted Warren Taylor for sixty days. Prior to the triatand conviction of these miscre- aunts a spirit of lawles: aud, violence prevailed among the negroes in the entire section of the North- ern Neck, Which culminated in this terrible crime. The arrest, summary trial and sentence, howeve had @ most salutary effect in restoring Jaw and order; but since the commutation of the sen- tence of Miler and the respite of Warren Taylor the negroes seem to be impressed ‘With the idea that they are licensed to commit crime and outrage with impunity. To-day they did not even believe that William Taylor would be hung, and your correspondent was regarded by some of them as a special courier with the Governor’s respite. On the other hand, the mest inteuse feeling of indigna- Uon exists among the friends of the little murdered Jett, and, indeed, the entire community of whites, at the exercise of clemency towards Warren Taylor, and it was strongly intimated that he would be for- ony taken from the jail and lynched. William Tay- or, THE CONDEMNED, 1s 4 negro six feet high, broad shouldered, weighing about onc hundred and seventy-five Pounds, With a Fepuisive countenance, wearing the scowl of # sav- age and contour of an animal. In his expression all ‘the worst characieristics of the negro can ba seen at @ glance, combined with the ferocity and strength of @ brute. Since his trial and sentence he has fad title to say with regard to the triple crime he was te chief in perpetrating; but, though never denying his gulit, he has insinuated tiiere were others connected with it as yet unknown. Lat- terly he became very penitent and last night he was abject with dejection and fear. Every wine he was visited he was found on tus knees, praying ear- nestly for salvation. * of his earthly existen p Wae Deane s ence Was passed restless) prayer. This morning he was unabie diygictd she ot a special breakfast prepared by Mr Rogers, the sheriff, Merely drinking the coifee, which he said made him feel better, be seemed in a more cheerful state of mind than for a number of days past, aud when interrogated aa to his hopes for merey, le Tee pled, “I have a willing mind, apd tis morning About day [ had a call to leave this world and join the angels in heayen.”? He prevaricated asfo the crime by saying that there was pone others concerued in it than those already under sentence, and was persistent in the Statement that his brother Warren was not present at the commission of the deed. Warren lay on tue floor listening to this while the condemned, all the While, moved nervously about the floor, and when in one spot he consta tly shifted srow foot to foot, gud his hands twitched almost apasmodicalty. THER BCAFKOLD Was erected ona wide gully on the outskirts pf o Grove, the yature of the cround being such thas it inade the ghastly contre of a sort of amphitheatre, oundwWHiCh @slight paiing, 200 yards in circumtes Bact was built, it was a rade, but subsiantint Ucture, Comprising 4 piatiorm’ eight feet bigh, Vere by he workinen aid the police. be: with ad ich constituted nearly the entire floor, This piatiSin was surmounted by & gallows just G sumicienti; yh to admit of the condemned standin, under it, Nahe aren was supported by @ pr wile removed by the blow of an axe, gave @ fall of In longer ee iarae crowd of both races, whose symp! " in different directions, the Sheriff took the precaution of summoning & large armed guard of white men, These were judicionsly «disposed around the jail to prevent either rescue of the con- demned or tis reapited brother by any parties who might be disposed to make the attelapt, “and this done the preparations for the final tragedy were complete in every particular. THE MORNING OF THE EXECUTION, Contrary to the popular idea of hangman's day, the weather was delightful; the sun shone with all the warmth of a southern clime; the sky was bright aud the trees resounded with tne melody of a thou- sand birds, It was a day that seemed fitting for anything else than the tragedy of the scaffold, So intense was the excitement regarding the inhuman murder of little Jett that people trom the surrounding countles of Essex, Caroline, Weatmore- jand and ptaiford thronged here the enure faaraing, and numbers came trom beyond the Potomac, in Maryland, All the fences jor a considerable distance round the court house were lined with wagons, bug- gies, carriages and every conceivable sort of vehicle. Nor was the desire for the gratification of ven- geance confined to the male rex—or each convey. ance had its adequate share of female freight—and by noon the scene resembied some grand see or festive occasion; but in the midst of this bustie and excitement the majority of those present wore an anxious and ‘serious aspect, that impressed one with the solemnity of ihe ovca- sion and imparted the idea that each individual Was an actor ip the ternple draina, ‘The tedious hours of the morning wore slowly away and the masses moved excitedly from the jail to the scafold, viewing the ominous structure with feeliegs¥of awe, At the singular request of the condemned, the Kev. Mr, Bayne, of the Methodist Church, preached his funeral ser- mon from the steps of the jail to a large audience assembled in front, al! of wnom were deeply im- pressed with the discourse, Wnich lasted nearly two hours. Behind tue preacher sat the con- demned man, eagerly, and apparenily caim- ly, listening to his death sermon, the most interested hearer of all, “When this was concluded the Rey. Mr. Flemming (colored) religi- ously hurangued the crowd in the hegro vernacular for nearly half an hour, introducing @ hymn, tn which the colored portion of his audience joined with much spirit and wild fervor, After this the reverend gentleman delivered a prayer, which, though rude and uncouth, but, taken in connection with the surroundings, was full of patios and beauty and was exceedingly appropriate. All these ceremonies being over, at hall-past twelve P, M. a procession of tie guard was formed at the jaf! and the condemued was led orth between two White as- sistanta. sever feet clear. THE EXECUTION. The order “Forward” was g.veu by the officer in charge, and the solemn cortége moved slowly to- wards ihe placeo! execution, the condemned walk- ing With an elastic and firm step and remarking that he felt xe as if he was going to church. Arrived at the loot of the scaffold he ascended its rude steps unaided, and knelt upon the drop, incom- with the Key. Mr. Bayne, to pray. When tie er Wes over a!l but the omicers left the id, and the condemned was asked If he had anything to. say, Turatug his face to the assembled ‘crowds he repeated substantially that given above, adding, “I believe justice has been dove me and] deserve my doom, I have nothing more to say than this—if my brother Warner was present when the crime was committed then you all here were.” He was then pinioned by the wrists, ankles aud knees A _ colored man named Joues then offered prayer at the request of the condemned, after which the rope was adjusted, the black cap was then placed over nis head, shutting out the hglit of heaven, and at three minutes to one P. M. the drop fell. Unfor- tunately, owing to the Inexpericnce of the sheril, a sullicient fal) bad not been given, nor was the Knot properly placed, The body fell only three, feet and the knot slipped to the back of the neck. In consequence of this there were several convulsive heavings of the chest and at- tempts to straggie, which were prevented by fhe pinions, In fifteen minutes, however, lite was pro- nounced extinct, but tie body was allowed to hang forty minutes, whev it was cut down aud placed in acottin, The whole affair, contrary to expectation, passed off yery quieuy, VENEZUELA. Prospects of War between Venezuela and Holland.—The Dutch Consul Demands his Passport and Leaves the Country—A Dutch Frigate before Laguayra~Blanco’s Deters mination = Venezuclan Ports Closed to Commerce. Caracas, May 24. A rupture between Holiand and Venezuela is regarded as imminent, and preparations are being made for hostilities by both parties, It seems that the Dutch mail steamer Honfleur, which carried the mails between St. Thomas, Curagoa, Laguayra and Porto Cavello, was seized by Guzman Blanco, who is now virtually President of Venezuela, for having on board ammu- nition, &c., for the Monagas party from Curagoa, and notwithstanding the remonstrances of the Con- sal of his Majesty the King of Holland, who repre- sented to Guzman that when the Honfleur left her port Monagas was President of Venezuela, and that consequently her arrival} at Laguayra with her cargo of munitions of .war was eutirely legitimare, and that the only thing the laws of War allow iim to do is to take that part of the cargo consigned to hig enemies, Guzman stilt detains thé vessel and refuses to let her go. A Dutch schooner, the Gaigo, was armed at Curacoa by the governor of that island, and sent to Laguay- ra to make a formal demand for tie release of the Hofleur, but Guzman refused to give her up, and the schooner was compelled to return without ac- complishing anything, a3 she was not of sutticient Torce to take her out trom under the shore batterie Another Dutch vessel, a schooner, also from Cura- goa, has been seized by Guzman on the sae rounds, ‘Lhe owner being here at the time made imself known, and applied through the consui for the release of the vessel and his passport, both of which requests were refused without any reason being assigned therefor by tue government, Upon this the Chargé @ Affaires tmmediately demanded his passport and left the country. A Dutch war steamer has been sent to Laguayra to enforoe the demands of the Holland government, and, as the Dutch say, to teach the Venezuelan, as they did on a former occasion, that they do not allow theinselves to be trited with, In this case they may reckon without their host, for Guzman isa de- termined man, aud has no aifection for the King of Holland, who, it will be remembered caused him and his father to be driven from Curacoa on the demand of Monagas, in March last. From Maracaibo we Jearn that an expedition was fitting out to blockade Laguayra under General Her- nandez, and irom Porto Cabello that General Mar- tinez, who had been holding Valencia, had been compelled by Guzman Blanco to fail back on the fo: mer place, much to the astonislimenatof the Monagas party. Tue peopie of Porto Cabeilo, desiring to pre- vent the shedding of innocent bivod, petitioned to him to give up the piace, to wich Martinez consented, and took a part of his troops on board two goVerument steamers, then lying tu the port, still holding the castle with the rewaindey, and wien Guzman’s troops marched into the town on the 21st opened a brisk fire on them, causing much damage to property in the town, An armistice was finaly brought about through the intercession of the commander of the th German gunboat Meteor, then in port, aud despatches have been seut to Mo- nagas asking if they shali capitulate, The foreign Consuls have united in a protest agalust any further bombardinent,jand have,requested the foreign Minis- ters to send any war Vessel! that may be at com- mand to protect thei inierests and to prevent any further firing upon the defenceiess town. A decree has been issued by Guzman Blanvo de- claring the ports of Maracaibo, Lavela ana Porto Cabello closed against all Commerce, of which ihe following is a transiation:— Considering that the enemies of the federal Institutions by QD act of usurpation continue hostile against the national will at different poris of the repubilc, tnereby injuriug the liberal interests of the country and hindering the piaus of the new government for the redtiction of the duties, which it 1s the desire to bring about. In eonsideration of this it 1 de- creed that the ports ‘of Maricaibo, Savela and Porto Cabello remain closed to the importation of foreign goods until = new order is issued, and no fi will be allowedto enter these ports from other domestic ports, The vessels which shall attempt to do business with the above mentioned ports contrary to the provisions of this decree will be liable to confiscation, uniess It shall be proven that the tenor of this decree was not’ known at the port from whence they sailed at the time of their departure. ‘The Sec- retary of State le charged with the promulgation of this de- cree, and will notify ail foreign Mihisters, Consuls and mer- chauts and the Veozuaiean representatives in foreign coun. tries.

About elght o'clock yesterday morning the old Piano factory corner of Twentieth street and Second avenue, under alteration to a tevement house, fell against the four story brick building, No. 833 Second avenue, crushing in the entire north wall. No. 333 1s owned and occupied by Mary C. Ross, female phy- sician, and ner daughter, Fannie, aged ‘twenty-two; her daugiter-in-law, Rose Ross, aged thirty-two, and two children and her grandeilid, Mary McMana; Daniel Clark, wife and two grandchildren, aged twelve aud twenty-three years, respectively, occu- pied the upper portion of the buildings At the time of the accident the taale members of tho families wereabsent. Mrs. Clark had her jaw broken; Rose Ross was bot bruised about the head and body, and Mary McMMana was slightly in- Jured, They were taken to Bellevue Hospital, Their escape from death was almost miraculous, The acckient was cansed, it is supposed, by the under mining of the plano lactory by parties making exca Yatlous for aceliar on tae lot dividing it from No. 343. For hours there was great excitement in the Heighborhood, and hundreds collect avout the ruins, from which the mangled nts were ‘The los3 on bh PULGLgs Wil be avout $15,000 or $20,000. NEW YORK HERALD, SATURDAY, JUNE 18, 1870. - FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. WALL STREET, i Fripay, Jone 17-0 P.M. Wall street continuds quiet. The operators who “expected an active market as the sequence of THR PASSAGE OF TH CURRENCY BILL have been disappointed. The outside public are now Waiting to see what the Senate will do with the bill, ‘The reports to-day are that the-Western and South ern Senators favor it, but that the Finance Commit- tee are opposed to it, Meantime Wall street ts in a muddle as to the remote effect of the bill, No one is clear as to whether it means contfaction or expan sion, The next step that should be taken with the bill is so to amend It as to declare how the three per cent certificates shall be redeemed, On this point it is not explicit, Secretary Boutwell has a curreucy balance at present of twenty wmililons, He could, were he so disposed, make that balance forty-five miliions and redeem the three per cents without availing himself ot the privilege given him by an old law to issue greenbacks fof the redemption of the certificates. In suffering this important point to go without attention the framers of the bill have shown an ignorance of financial matters which is on @ par with all the fnance tinkering of the wiseacres: in Congress, It is to be hoped the Senate 1s beyond the control of the national bank ring, and that this and every measure increasing national bank facill- ties on the present plan will be defeared, GOLD LOWER. The gold market weakeued under the intelligence of the defeat of the Banks’ Cuban resolution, and the price declined from 113% to 112%. Here the speculators for a decline, who had been expecting & still lower market, suddenly suspended their opera- tions in consequence of the peremptory counter- manding of European orders to ship grain, Iv. seems that England and France, which have been visited with a severe drought, that threatened very short crops, were treated to extensive showers all last night, the effect of which has been the transmission+of cable despatches to-day suspending the unlimited orders to our produce mer- chants to send over all the grain within their reach. We doubt, however, whether this will more than temporarily arrest the fall of gold, for the norma! in- fluences at Work upon the market are too powerful tobe overcome. As it was, gold ran back to 113, but closed finally at 1127%. The course of the market is shown in the tab! a In the gold loan market the rate ranged from three per cent for carrying to flat for borrowing. The operations of the Gold Exchange Bank were as fol- lows:— i Gold cleared Gold balance: Currency balances STOCKS UNSETTLED. The stock market was weak and dull at the open- ing. Alter the morning call New York Central broke to 98% upon the report that the lare to Chicago had been reduced to fifteen dollars aud the general tariit in proportion, The general list sharply declined in sympathy, and prices went down a half to one and ahalfpercent. Later in the day Lake Shore led a rally, which carried prices for most of the list back to the former standard, the Central shares being the most dilatory in this return moyement, The move- ment in Lake Shore is simply a “flyer” on the part of the Erie cliqne and a well known heavy operator. The Vanderbilt party are not “regarded as being concerned in it. The “movement in Erie made more progress to-day, and on light deal- ings the stock rose from 23% to 2634. In the miscel- Taneous shares Western Union was strong aud active and rose to 3534. The rest.of the market was with- out new feature. Pacific Mail was steady, consider- Ing the anxiety among the stockholders as to the safety of the Henry Chauncey, now overdue seven days. It will be remembered that we announced the short sales of this stock made when the steamer ‘Was first discoverea to be unreasonably overdue. But the “bulls,” by some curlous device, contrived to have the arrival of the vessel bogusly reported in the shipping news next day, and thus calmed their more timid fellow stockholders. Now that the com- pany have had a chance to explaurthe delay of the vessel the original effect of the unduly long passage has been done away with, It was, by the way, a pretty, although very quiet, little game between the “bulls” and “beara.” The following were the closing prices at the last session of the Stock Exchange:—Canton, 67% a 69; Cum- beriand, 38 a 41; Consolidated Coal, 2734 9 23; Wed tern Unton, 34% a 2474; Quickailver, 7 g 9; Mariposa Gab; do. preferred; ise 108d; Ait 1,967,762 ‘4 £ i] nite hail, be a 35%; Pacific Mall, 44 a 444; Boston Water Power, 16% bid; Adams Express, 63% a 64; Wells-Fargo Ex- press, 16 a 1644; do. scrip, 8 a 3g; American Ex- press, 464 bid; United States Express, 45% a 455¢; Merchants’ Union consolidated, 9954 a 9934; New York Central scrip, 953g 2 9534; Harlem, 145 a 1453¢; Erie, 243g a 2432; Reading, 10834 a 1083¢; Michigan Central, 12514 a 1253g; Lake Shore, 10044 a 10034; Miinots Central, 1415 bid; Cleveland and Pittsburg, 10934 bid; Chicago and Northwestern, 843¢ @85; do. preferred, 903¢ @ 90%; Uleveland, Columbus and Ciacinnati, 80 bid; Rock Island, 12134 a 1218;; Mil- waukee and St. Paul, 6814 a 6834; do. preferred, 833 & 8344; Toledo and Wabash, 6034 @ 6034; do. preferred, 75 bid; Fort Wayne, 97 bid; Ohio and Mississippi, 413¢ a 4114; Delaware and Lackawanna, 1103g a 111; New Jersey Central, 110; Chicago and Alton, 11844 a 119; do. preterre’, 118 bid; Morris and Essex, 9034 a 903g; Hannibal and St. Joseph, W214 a 121%; do. preferred, 121 @ 121%; Iron Mountain, 4834 2 150; Boston, Hartford and Erie, 575 & G; Columbus, Ciicago and Indiana Central, 22a 223, HIGHEST AND LOWEST PRICES.

THE NATIONAL GAME. Red St0ckings va. Eckfords—Score in Favor of Cinciunnti. The attendance at the ball ground to witness the playing of the Red Stockings, though measurably falling off, is still greater tnan had been believed, Yesterday upward of 2,600 people gathered at the Union grounds, notwithstanding that the opinion was universal the Eckfords did not stand the slight- est'chance of winning, The game was @ slow ant uninteresting one, more of the sociable character than anything else. It was not even a picture of Play as was the game of Wednesiay, and the mem- bers of the Union club present were made dissatsfied because of the apparent lack of interest shown by the Red Legs, compared with the style of play shown by the Reds in the contest with them. To sum up the whole the Reds did poorly at the bat, the mondiing ob the Eckfords I tener if all chances had been availed of, jouble the number of runs scored by theirjadvers ries, However, Williamsburg feéls pleased, mas. much as they are far from being the worst beaten club the Reds have met here tbus far, Harry Wright pitched throughout the game, and his inef- ficiency in this department gave an opportunity for run-scoring, which the Eckfords took most advan- tage of. whole play cannot be characterized as. good on either side, as the score betow will show :— OLNCINNATL, EOKFORD.
