GI FULL CONFESSION OF THE CRIME sOBNES AT THD scarroz. Affecting» Addvess---The Launch ‘Into Eternity. » RALEIGH, N. ©., Noy, 4, 1870, +») Willem Stinson, a negro, to-day paid the terrible 2 of death for the crime of rape ‘upon ‘the person of an elderly white lady, in June last, in ac- vordanee with the requirements of his sentence and the law. He isthe turd negro that has been exe- cuted for the same heinous crime during the pre- sent year; for, however lenient the present execu- uve of North Carolina 1s to other condemned felons, he shows no-clemency tothe wretch who dishonors afemale. The FIENDISH OUTRAGE for which Stinson to-day suffered death wasone of those abherrent-crimes* which snock humanity and make the blood run cold at their mere recital. In the Month of Juno jast the condemned man, who isa Young and stalwart negro, went to the dwelling of an elderly and respectable white widowed lady, tm the lewer part of the county”of Wake, at the dead hour of midnight, with the purpese. of robbery. But, elas! one crime begets another, and before he had left the ®cene he was guilty of one of the most horrible crimes known tothe law. The few inmates of the house, consisting of the widow, her daughter and a gegro boy, had long since retired and were fast asleep. There was no friendly neighbor living close by, no protector of the helpless and the innocent near to answer an appeal, and the burglar and fend knew this too well. Noiselessly he forced his way into the dwelling, and a light which he struck frat revealed himto the startied and terrifed mother and daughter. He demanded her pocketbook from the old lady, but his glances and fierce expression quickly aisclosed to the daughter that he now meditated a more terrible crime than mere robbery, and she at ence escaped through a window wie the burglur was engaged with her mother, The monster then drove the negro boy, who waS only fourteen years of age, from the house, bné he, hearing the cries of o lady for mercy, ran back, when he ‘Was again driven off with a threat, which so terri- fled him that he ran to his mother’s, some half mile distant. Stinson then seized the lady a second time and, regardiess of her cries aud supplications for mercy, he dragged her from the house near to the road, and there, despite her feeble efforts at resist ance, cruelly raped her. ot content with this erime the demon then STRUCK HER TWIOB IN THE HEAD with the butt end of the Incvitable old army musket ‘With which all the negroes seem to ave ween si pies, by thatiniauitous machine, the Freedmen's jurcau. She remained stunned and insensible frou the force of the blows; but tke fend’s work was not ifs complete, He siood gloating over his victim an- i she recovered, cursing her with the most foul im- precatious for the delay sie caused hun, Upon re- Balning, her senss he demanded savageiy the hereabonts of the remainder of her money besides shat which was in her pocketbook, already in his pos- session. The poor uniortunate Woman Was unabie ap ak, With the most hornbie vaths and threats then forced her back into the louse to tell him where she kept the money. ‘error stricken, bleed- ing from her wounds, and haif unconscious, the woman mechanically pene the monster aud pro- needed toa desk where she usually kept her valu- pee While he was pillaging this articic she made jer escape irom the house aid was soon hidden tn the woods.

No one can tell tho molings of that widowed mothers sons ce aghters when they heard her recite the lemon’s Work, or the vows of vengeance that were Qttered, or the fearful indignation ef the people when the news spread. A hue and cry was at once and biack and white, negro and Caucasian, turned out in pursuit of the hellish monster. The next day after his crimes Stinson was ARRESTED in this city, and, strange to A he was not instantly nohed. ‘The oficers of the law bad gotten posses- of the criminal, and thus he was saved, for, per- haps, a wise purpose, from the instantaneous and ble death which he so justly merited at the Bands of an incensed and enraged people. He was committed to jail to await the tedious but sure pro- vess of the jaw, and for months he layin the jail here, a guilty, but an unpunished wretch, whom it was almost & crime against Luianity to let live. At last the court met, and on the 7th of October last he Was arraigned for trial before his Honor Judge Watts, of the Superior Court. A strange, unprece- dented, but notable feature of this trial was the tact ‘she jury was composed OF TWELVE NEGROFS. ‘Thus the great provision of the constitution that a man shall be tried by a jury of his peers was carricd but in its ie tuteanacs grew licry ae, Lens being unable to cot ludge humanely eee him two aioe of the city bar, who de- mim as ably 8 possible und ay the ciroum- stances.

Raged Woman, a8 told by hersell, were borne out and corroborated by the negro boy and daughter, @ud the crimtual Stinson wes tuliy identified by all the partics. He could furnish no Fea testimony, notwithstanding the ingenuity of his lawyers, wid ‘were eager to obtain a point on which they might. base a defence. The sable jury heard the evidence and they weighed it well and carefully, even before it was lated to them by his Honor in the clearest and simpleat manner. ‘The case was sub- mitted by counsel without argument, and the jury retired to form thelr VERDICT. ‘They remained absent but a short time—not over twenty minutes. A breathiess silence prevailed in the court room, the deepest interest being mani- feasted in the verdict of a jury so novel that many deemed # an experiment, though such was not the case. It wasa ie according to the laws of the Stato and tue faws ol’ tho Uulted States. “When tne twelvejurors again made their appearance in the cont itom, all oyes were turned upon them, and {n a low but solemn tone the foreman announced the verdict of guilty, The Judge then pro- “8 the law, and delivered a very feeling nd !mpres- address, in Walch alluded to ‘he’ FO} oe freee evidence of ‘the Pye abidiang charac. over | es the of North Carolina, and he ex; utmost at tri of law and He fixed the " the tarp dat of tas law into est ou Pr morning of the execution wad delightful.
