Terrel Trial at liOsnu. Special to the Ohio 3lato Journal. Looan, Ohio, May 31. Yesterday afternoon was consumed in taking testimony before the Court in the absence of the jury, to ascertain its admissibility in the oase, The jury was again excluded this morning, and new testimony introduced to ascertain the correctness and possible errors of the testimony which the defense wish to exclude. Attorneys who conducted the preliminary trial testified, from memory, to the correctness of testimony of witnesses, and the prisoner'a mother also was on hand to state to the court the prisoner's education, mental ability and habits. Argument is now being conduoted by the defense upon the manner in which the officers obtained the prisoner's statements, claiming that it was through threats and assurances of more favor if he was guilty or implicated. Mr. John 8. Frieener made a weighty argument, and cited the best authoriiy on the matter. The weather 1b more favorable, and the attendance in the court room is much increased this afternoon, nearly one hundred ladies being present. The prisoner continues to carry a full, fresh countenance, and rests apparently easy in bia chair. His mother and sisters are constant and prompt attendants. There is no telling, from the present progress, when this trial will close. Heavy Verdict for ltamaKoa. Special to the Ohio State Journal. Cambridge, May 31. The big case of Depew v.

Washington, May 31. The Potter committee, at their session this afternoon, debated for some time the propriety of holding open sersionB, and finally agreed thev would do so to tne extent ol admit ting a limited number of representatives of the press. This course was adopted in order to remove suspicion ol untair-ness in the investigation; as it had been reported the proceedings were to be con ducted secretly.

Your obedient servant, Clabkson N. Potter, To Hon. John Sherman, Secrotary of the .treasury. CONCERNING AM INTERVIEW WITH THE PRESIDENT. The reported Interview with the President at Gettysburg yesterday, in regard to tbe Potter investigating committee, 1b pronounced at the executive Mansion to be predicated on a very Blight foundation, if it has any basis at all. It ia said that the President was so continuously occupied with the oeremoniea and the services connected with his visit that there was no time for interviews, and besides language ia attributed to him which he could not have uttered under any circumstances, especially now, as during the electoral count in Florida and Louisiana, he takes no part in the question, being content to leave the investigation where it ia now lodged and to await the result without interference on his part in any wav what ever. It is also said at the Executive Mansion that Postmaster Key's open letter was not submitted to the President and the Cabinet before it was famished the press, and that its preparation and publication rested with himself alone. NOMINATIONS CONFIRMED. The Senate has confirmed the follow ing nominations: Collectors of Internal Eevenue Amor Smith ir.. First District of Ohio, vice Weilzel, removed ; Jamea T, Rapier, Second district of Alabama, vice Booth, removed. Postmasters Charles Holden jr., AHoona, Illinois. The Senate rejected the nomination of Wm. JN. Berkeley for reappointment as Postmaster at Alexandria, Virginia. Xl.Vtb Congress First geaaloD. SS.NATI. The President pro tempore laid before the Senate tbe concurrent resolution of the Senate providiog for the final adjournment of Congress on the 10th of June, together with the amendment ol tna House ot ttepresenta- tives, fixing June 17 as the date. Mr. wiadom moved to refer the resolution and amendment to the committee on Appropriations.Mr. Hamlin hoped the amendment would be concurred in now. He thought the soon er the day of final adjournment should be niea, tne netterit would do. Mr. hdmunds said be desired to consider the matter, and the resolution might as well lay over until to-morrow, when it could be disposed ot; and upon his motion the resolution wns laid on the table, to be taken up again to-morrow. Mr. uavis caned up me out providing lor the appointment of an additional Circuit Judge in the Seventh Judicial circuit, com- posea ot tne states ot Indiana and Illinois, which led to a political discussion. Mr. Blaine referring to tne remarks ot Messrs. Morean and Hill when the bill was up Wednesday last, said they desired to have the bill postponed until a Democratic Senate could couhrm the appointments. He thought it a most extraordinary statement. The whole history of the Democratic party for sixty years had been to make the Supreme Bench of the United States a political bench. He referred to tbe appointment of John G. Crittendso, by Fillmore, and of Judge Badge, by John Quiacy Adams, and said a Democratic Senate refused to confirm their nominations. Mr. Thurmsn said while 3C0O suitors in Chicago were waiting to have their cases decided, the Senator from Maine (Blaine) was raxing up tne records ot tne country to find out the politics of the judges appointed. There were two Bides to that question, and it tue senate would agree to adjourn on tne 17th of October instead of the 17th of June, he (Thurman) would enter upon the discus sion of that question with the Senator. measrs. Morgan and xiill denied tnat tney desired to postpone the appointment of additional judges until there should be a Democratic Senate, and argued there should be some general law on this subject, and the judges should be appointed without refer ence to politics, The bill was then read tue third time and passed. Mr. Thurman, from tbe committee on Judiciary, reported a substitute for tho Senate bill to alter and amend the laws in relation to the filing of Pacific railroad reports, and also to amend the title of the bill bo as to read, a bill to create an auditor of railroad accounts and for other purposes." Placed on the calendar. He gave notice he would call tbe bill up for consideration in the morning hour at an early day. It waB a measure which would meet with no opposition, and the paBsage of the bill as soon as possible was a matter of necessity. Mr. Bayard, irom tne committee on private Land Claims, reported adversely on the bill recently introduced by Mr.Matthews, making a pre-emption grant to the heirs of Jean Baptiste Beaubien, deceased, for a part of Fort Dearborn Reservation, at Chicago, and to confirm the purchasers of other parts in their titles and to convey to the city of Chicago the. streets and alleys of said reservation. The bill was indefinitely postponed. Mr. Matthews gave notice that on Tuesday next he would call up the Texas Pacific Railroad bill. At the conclusion of the morning business, consideration was resumed of the Legislative, Judicial and Executive Appropriation bill. Tbe pending question being upon the amendment of Mr. Spencer to continue the Clerk to the committee on Military Affairs during the recent at an annual salary of $2000, after a lengthy discussion it was agreed to yeas 81, nays 9. Mr. Euitls submitted an amendment ap propriating $12,000 for additional clerks In the office of the Surveyor General of Louisiana. Rejected yeas 14, nays 26. Mr. Morgan sobmitted an amendment appropriating $5000 to investigate the history and habits of insects injurious to the cotton plant and the best means of destroying the same. Agreed to. Mr. Eustis submitted an amendment increasing the appropriation for clerks in the office of tbe Surveyor General of Louisiana from $1000 to $6000. Agreed to. Several unimportant amendments were agreed to, and the bill having been considered in committee of the Whole, was re ported to tne senate, read tne tmrd time ana passed. Mr. Hamlin moved to take up the concurrent resolution, reported from the com mittee on Foreign Relatione, approving of tue views or tnat committee embraced in the report to accompany the bill providing for tbe payment of tbe award made by the Fisheries Commission at Halifax nnder the treaty of Washington. Mr. Edmunds moved to take up the bill reported by him last week from a seleot committee in regard to Presidential elections, and to provide for and reinstate the connting of votes for President and Vice President of the United States and tbe decision of questions arising thereon. Mr. Ferry moved to take up the Post Route bill. Mr. Hereford said be was surprised that the Senator from Michigan (Ferry) moved to take up the Post Route bill while the specie resumption act was before the Senate. A vote cuuld be taken on that bill in a very short time, and the people of the country would then know what to depend upon. Mr. Spencer moved to take up the river and harbor appropriation bill. Mr. Ferry said it was not his purpose to defer consideration of the bill to repeal the specie resumption act, but it was not his understanding that the bill should be considered immediately after the passage of the legislative appropriation bill. The Postoffice Department was urging the passage of the Post Route bill. Mr. Allison said the Senator from West Virginia ( Hereford) need not be disturbed very much if there sheuld be no further legislation on the question of finances at this session. Mr. Hamlin said it was absolutely neces-Siry to act upon the fishery award subject, so as to avoid an extra session of Congress. Mr. Edmunds spoke of the importance of actiog upon the bill in regard to Presidential elections and said all the Senators knew that the nearer we approached to an election tbe greater were the difficulties encountered in sectling this question. The bill should be acted upon at this Bession of Congress. Mr. Beck favored consideration of the bill to repeal the Specie Resumption act, and sn id he did.not think Congress had done half enough in regard to these financial measures.The motion of Mr. Hamlin to take up the concurrent resolution in regard to the fishery award was agreed to yeas 35, nays 20. Mr. Edmunds moved to amend the concurrent resolution by adding the words: "That if, under the circumstances, the Government of Great Britain shall receive the sum of money referred to, the provisions of said treaty on the subject ought to be terminated at an earlier time consistent with the tbirtythird article of Baid treaty." Mr. Beck gave notice that when the bill in regard to the payment of this award should be taken up, he would submit an amendment providing for the payment of five and a half million dollars .by the President, etc., if the British Minister resident at Washington lays before him such evidence as, in the opinion of the Attorney General of the United States, renders it certain that the British Ministry and Crown lawyers deoided and insisted that the award as made whb in strict accordance with law. and would have been regarded by them as binding and conclusive on the British Gov ernment if it had been adverse to their claim, and ha shall not direct the ptyment of any part of the money hereby appropriated, until such decision is furnished as aforesaid. Mr. Hamlin argued that the award was grossly exorbitant and hu did not think our nshermen wanted to enjoy the privilege at any such price. He favored the amend ment of Mr. Edmunds. Mr. Bavard did not approve the amend ment of Mr. Edmunds, because it was like a threat or a menace to accompany the payment. He concurred with the committee on Foreign Relatioua that the amount was ex cessive, but the proceeding) of the Commission were regular and authorized by the terms of the treaty. The amount of the award did not touch tbe legality of the proceedings. This country must not forget that tbe Alabama claims were Bettled to the fullest pecuniary satisfaction of the American Government and that the award was paid without comment of any kind. Now comes our side of the question and on this we were debtors. He hoped the money would be paid ia the manner recommended by tbe committee on Foreign Relations. tVe could not find fault with the treatv and break it after the American peo ple bad received and held to-day the money received from the Geneva award. Mr. Edmunds denied that there was any thing like a menace in his amendment. It waB merely to express a just right of this Nation to terminate tha fishery provision of the treaty. England was a friendly power. Her people spoke the same language as ours. She waB in a critical condition at this moment, and yet it tbe worst come in her present difficulties, the United States would exercise the greatest industry to preserve our honor and neutrality to tender the treaty so that hereafter thire would be no occcasion for any citizen of her Majes-tv's Government to comDlaln of the United States, as theie had been for the citizens of the United States to complain of the action of the British Government on a recent occasion.Mr. Kernan favored the report ot tbe com mittee on Foreign Relations to bring the matter to the attention of tbe Executive for further correspondence. Pending discussion the Senate went Into Executive session, and when tbe doors were reopened adjourned. HOUBK. Mr. O'Neill presented a memorial of tbe Centennial Board of Finance asking for relief. Referred. On motion of Mr. Atkins, the bill appro priating twenty thousand dollars to defray the expenses of the Potter Investigating committee was taken from tbe calendar and passed without discussion.

Collision of Ironclads in Dover Strait The Grosser Kurfiirst Gobs Down In Five Minutes. Startling Effect Supposed to be an Explosion. Number of Lives Lost Estimated at Three Hundred. London, May 81. The German iron clad Uroaeer ivurfurat came in collision with the ironclad Koening Wilhelm at 9:46 this morning, three miles off Folkstone. The Grosser Kurfuret sank almost immediately, and her boilers exploded aa she went down. The weather was bright and the sea calm at the time ol tbe disaster. It is reported from Dover that only eighteen persons escaped of her complement of 460 officers and men on board, ihe Uroaeer Jlur fuist boats went from the shore and were sent from other vessels of the German fleet to the assistance of the drowning people,- and it is hoped that more lives were saved. The German cquadron, consisting of three ironclads, Ihe frussen, the Urosser Kurfuret and tbe Eoenig Wilhelm passed Dover at 8:45 this morning bound for Plymouth, whence it expected to sail for Gibraltar. When the squadron was off Ludgate, about Ave miles from shore, one of the ironclads was observed to be gradually keeling over on her beam ends and men were seen crowding on the bulwarks. In about five minutes the vessel went down on her Bide, her boilers blowing up as she sank. New Yobs, May 31. London dispatches state that the German Embassy is informed that four hundred and tjfty persona were drowned by the sinking of the ironclad Groaser Ktirfur-it. The Ger man Ambassador, with the Crown Prince, has gone by special train to the scene of tbe disaster. London, May 31. According to the report of the disaster received by the Ad miralty, the collision occurred seven miles southeast of Folkstone. The latest dispatch from Dover says : "The forward part of the iron-clad Eoe nig Wilhelm is nnder water." W. xl. oniltd, f irst Liord ot tbe Ad miralty, stated in the House of Commons this afternoon that according to reports received by the Lords of the Admiralty from one hundred and eighty to two hundred of the crew of the Urosser lvur- furat had been saved, and three hundred perished. Ihe Grosser Kurfurst was the flagship of tbe squadron. ibe Admiral commanding tbe squad ron was among the saved. Last Night's Dispatches.l London, May 31. A steamer just re turned from the scene of the disaster reports tbe Koenig Wilhelm was able to proceed down the channel probably as far as Portsmouth. The PruBsen remains on the spot. Nothing is to be seen of the Grosser Eurfurst. The Captain of a fishing boat makes the following statement : My boat, with other fishing vessels, was returning to Folkstone, when we noticed three iron-clada coming down. A bark was fetching off shore. The GroBser Eurfurst ported her helm to clear the bark. The Eoenig -Wilhelm pulled hard a-port and struck the Grosser Eurfurst forward of her miizsn-mast. The Eurfurst went over on her broadside and sank in five minutes. She went down in fifteen fathoms. All hands jumped overboard. Our boats reached the spot directly alterward and rescued twentyseven men, including three officers. The other boats rescued a number of the crew, all of whom were transferred to the Eoenig Wilhelm. Captain Batoch, of the Grosser Eurfurst, went down with his ship. The boilers did not explode, but the escaping steam must have scalded many persons in the water. The Eoenig Wilhelm had her bows Btove, but the leak was stopped with hammocks. The collision was undoubtedly caused by the Eoenig Wilhelm porting her helm too suddenly. Mr. Smith, first Lord of the Admiralty, in his statement in the House of Commons to day, confirms the report that the oollieion occurred while the Grosser Eurfurst waa endeavoring to avoid a mer chantman. He said a dock waa prepar ing at Portsmouth for the reception of the Eoenig Wilhelm. She is now proceeding thither. ISecond Dispatch. 1 London, May 31. Two of the men rescued died from exhaustion on board the Freussen, Eye witnesses of the disaster say the Preuseen did not lower any boats, and that nobody was visible in the water half an hour after the Grosser Eurfurst foun dered. The Eoenig Wilhelm, which is the flag ship, carrying Bear Admiral Batsch, and the Preussen, are expected at Portsmouth to-morrow morning. Tbe Voltaire Centennial Celebra tion. Paris, May 81. The Voltaire celebration, which was organized by the men of letters and took place in the Gaiete Theater yesterday, was attended by about 2000 persons. Admission was by tickets, for which from fifty centimes to eight francs were charged according to location, the receipts being devoted to the poor of Paris. The proceedings were marked by no special Bcenea of excitement. A celebration waa held at- the same hour by the Free Thinkers at the American circus. Admissions were by ticket, but without charge. The audience numbered about 6900. Several epeeches were made wholly devoted to proving Voltaire's enmity to all religion. The audience was very enthusiastic. After the speeches the statue of Voltaire was crowned with flowers. Deputations representing Paris and the provinces, with banners, marched around, it while the band played and the audience Bang the "Marseilles." It waB the original intention of the movers of the meeting to erect the statue publicly in the Place Chateau d'Eau, but the Government forbade it. The Government also prohibited public ceremony by the clericals in honor of Joan of Arc, While the two Voltaire celebrations were proceeding, the Cathedral of Notre Dame was filled by an immense congregation, consisting principally of women, to take part in expiatory serviceB ordered by the Cardinal Archbishop of Paris. The interior of the ohuroh was darkened: expiatory tapers were burned before all the altars, as well as from the pulpit. A discourse was delivered, in which the preacher denounced Voltaire and glorified Joan of Arc Tbe Trouble Between Ibe Tnrka and JHonteuegrlBi Allayed for Ibe Present. London, May 81. A special from Scutari Albania via Bagusa states that through the mediation of the British ConBtil, the conflict which impended near Podgerilza, between the Turks and Montenegrins has been avertod. But for the Consul's efforts a collision would have taken plaoe in a few hours. The Prince of Montenegro finally pledged his word in case hostilities were renewed, he would give the Turkish Commandant of Podgerilza ample notice. This paciflo turn in affairs there is believed to be attributed mainly to private Intimations received by Prince Nikita from St, Petersburg, Gladstone an an English Protectorate for Aalmlc Turner. London, May 81, Gladstone has an artiole in the Nineteenth Century enti tled "Liberty in the East and West," dealing with current political questions, In; the course of the article reference is made to the alleged intention of the Gov. eminent to assume a protectorate over Asiatic Auraav. Gladstone ODDoaes anv step of tbis kind, and says that anch a protectorate could hardly end otherwise man in tne total destruction of the 'lurk ish power and its disappearance from tht face of the earth.

A Boise City dispatch says the Bannock Indians, numbering about two hundred warriors, under the command of Buffalo Horn, a noted scout, are encamped in the Lava cede between JJtg Uamas prairie and Snake river, and have ordered the whites to leave the prairie on penaltv of death. They have already commenced hostilities by Bhooting two settlers, wounding both severely. The Indians are well supplied with ammunition sold them at Boise Citv about two weeks ago, on the order of Governor Brayman, on Ihe ground that they were gooa Indians. About ninety mounted troops, under command of Major Collins and Captain Bernard, will leave immediately for the scene of the trouble.

Militia Overpowered and the Enclosure Thrown Down. Fifteen Thousand People Witness tbe Legal Taking Off. Mansfield, May 81. To the Editor of the Ohio State Journal: Edward Webb, the Mansfield murderer, paid his debt to day amid the screams and howls of an excited and drunken mob. Your dispatches this morning gave information to the effect that the officials had grounds for believing that the officers of law would be superseded by violence, and this suspicion proved to be well founded. All the precaution which local military could offer was taken, but tbe forces at hand proved as bo much chart before a growing. Btorm. The indications last night in the arrival of people of all class es in the city, served tOBhowvery plainly what the condition of affairs would be today. During the whole night the streets were lined by the ring leaders, who were engaged in "corning" op preparatory to leading tbe willing forces to-day. THE MORNING ARRIVALS. The earliest morning trsina were bur dened with curiosity eeekers who shed themselves in the city, and these were followed by special trains over tbe Pittsburg, Ft. Wayne and Chicago road, on which xcurBion rates bad been Becured, and with the important attraction there was no want of numbers to make the enterprise a profitable one. While thou sands came by rail, they were meager in comparison to those who came from the surrounding country by private conveyances, Soon after daylight, tne feed stables began to fill up from thia source, and it was not long until all were crowded, They came by wagon and buggy loads accompanied by women in many inetances and presented very much the appearance of an old-fashioned Fourth of July occasion minus the cleanliness and quality of the clothing worn. A feature of the morning arrivals were the i . i. i .u came on horseback at full speed, with long hair dangling in the air. Ihie class came to the heart of the city from all the avenues of approach, and in such numbers that, like Rhoderic Dew's forces, they seemed to rise up from every fence corner and bush. AFFEARANCE OF THE STREETS. The bud rose in all its glory this morn ing and looked down resplendent on the beautiful streets of Mansfield occupying its crested ridge. Her ten thousand people were out early, to renew the only im portant topic of conversation with the new arrivals. Tbe principal streets were soon thronged with people, none of whom seemed to have any Bpecial place to go. As the hours of morning grew on, tbe streets became so densely packed as to make 'pedeatnamsm decidedly inconvenient without choosing the middle of the Btreet for passage. The streets were lined with teams at every available point, and the alleys were crowded full of horses turned to their day's rations. The public square furnished a large acreage for the accommodation of conveyances, and it was almost entirely lined around. So auspicious an occasion could not be lost eight of by the enterprising street criers. .fop corn ana peanut stanus ma a nourishing business at every corner, while lemonade and candy booths came in for a good rival share of patronage. These were located more especially on the streets leading to the jail, and were consequently crowded about all the time. One firm entered into business more extensive and with a greater degree of freedom than otheiB, by establishing a candy factory at the southeast corner oi toe Jan. xiere candy waa manufactured from the boiling nuia over a temporary furnace and the auctioneer gathered customers around him with the understanding that it would be some time before the show would begin. It is safe to say that the streets of Mansfield never before presented such immense throngs of people, not excepting State Fair times. CROWDS ABOUT THE JAIL. As soou as the mob element and greedy curiosity seekers could do so in the morning they retired in the direction of the jail, with as much regularity as if each had a reserved seat, seeing now completely they were shut out from view, a spirit of uneasiness naturally arose, continually augmented by new arrivals. The streets leading to the jail In each direction were soon packed solid with humanity in all its phases for squares away. The house and barn tops were covered, some making an effort to Bee in this manner at a quarter of a mile range. Mingled with the dense crowd in every direction was a liberal sprinkling of women and children, who were as enthusiastic in their demonstrations as the more important factor of the mob element. The crowds gathered early, and as the hour drew on they became restlesB, and an occasional scream of excitement would run through the immense mass, showing that their demonstrations meant something more than the noise which they were making. Three, four and five hours beneath the almoBt smothering rays of the sun, was ill intended to soften the feelings of a disappointed mob. It was evident that all that was needed was a few ring-leaders to break the guard, and the orderly proceedings of law and justice were at an end. THB MANSFIELD BLUES did guard duty on the outside of the jail, and were assisted by tne regular omcera of the city, besides a corps of specials. Shortly before 11 o'clock, Captain Bell received orders to avoid shooting any person under all oiroumstances. It is not known whether the information reached the rank and file of the disappointed or not, but at any rate they beoame more boiattrous immediately afterward and pressed much harder on tbe guard line. What would have seemed an injudicious movement, about eleven o'clock two of the blue coats were stationed on the top of the enclosure, with guns in band, in a measure admitting that the mob might scale tbe fence, but resistance would be offered at a more important point. THE DREADED MOMENT. The crowd had about reached its largest, and the excitement ran the highest about eleven o'clock, when it was estimated by good judges that there were fifteen thousand people about the jail and vicinity. Some placed the number much higher. though it may have been less. With a wild and sickly yell they swept down across the guard as if thev were so many children, and hav ing cleared the fence, they began beating the enclosure with stones and rails, and in less than three minutes had the entire siding torn off, Bave a few boards and the frame work which sup ported the scaffold. The excitement LANDAUERS ADVERTISE ONLY THE FACTS. The Proofs Are Always in Readiness LANDAUERS HAVE A Large Stock OF Furnishing Goods!

Curing the time the boaids were being strung around as eo many shingles, the newspaper men, to the extent. of ten or fifteen, who had taken positions in the enclosure, Beemed to immediately have business in other quarters. Several of them were seen shortly afterward sitting on the jail building, taking notes on the situation. Sheriff Ritchie, visiting Sheriffs and officials, all struggled to make speeches, but none could gain a hearing for some time. As soon as the scaffold had been cleared for view on all sides, there was an almost death struggle for favorite positions. All the available buildings near by were then covered over. All the space within seeing dis-tance of the scaffold was filled up solid onlv leaving the small apace vacant, im mediately beneath the scaffold. SPEEOHES AND QROWLS. A?(er the mob had ventilated them selves on the score that they would not ride twentyfive or thirty miles and then be disappointed on a hanging spree, Sheriff Bitchie finally gained a hearing. He Baid they had voted for him; put him there and he was trving to observe the law. He eaid : "Men, I want you to help me. I have telegraphed tbe uovernor ana we win Eroceed aa soon as a reply can e bad." The mob cheered the Sheriff, and assured him they would help him carry out the law. Tbe remarks of the Sheriff were received with as much favor as if all before him were a beloved constituency. During tbe interval the officials were awaiting an answer from Governor Bishop as to what course to pursue, the crowd engaged in tavoriie expressions such as "Fetch out the Darkie," or "Bring on your nigger." A few minutes after twelve the Sheriff again appeared on the scaffold, and Baid the Prosecuting Attorney, Mr. Burns, would speak his sentiments. Mr. Burns said that in twenty minutes the prisoner would be on tbe stand with tbe eheitt and proper assistants, and asked certain favors of the crowd in regard to room near the scaffold, which, of courae.was not acceded to. A, J. Mack also made a speech to the crowd, and the omcials retired to the jail, but did not appear with the prisoner until twentytwo minutes past twelve. webb's last hours. The stolid indifference to his doom which the prisoner has maintained all along is something wonderful, and seems to place him among the moral monstrosities. Thursday evening he eat quite a hearty supper and retired about pine o'clock, securing a good night's Bleep. He arose about five o'clock this morning. smoked a cigir, and a half hour later eat some cake and drank a cup ol tea. This has been hia favorite diet for the past three weeks. The clothes in which he was to be executed were placed on the prisoner by Deputy Qrove when the former arose in the morning. The suit consisted of a black frock coat, light pants, white socks and slippers, and a white shirt with collar and tie. Webb seemed very proud of his suit and spent a good deal of time in brushing around and looking at himself. About six o'clock this morning, he took leave of his colored friends, bidding them geod-by, and from seven to half-past seven he waa in charge of two guards, when he gave vent to some of the most obscene language in the form of dying requests, The speoial matters referred to are unfit for print. He very much desired a pin to fix something about his pants, and was furnished a string for the purpose, and then he called for a breastpin; he wanted to put it on bis shirt front and go out to the scaffold as big as any preacher. The prisoner told the guards he wanted to know when the ladies were coming, so he could put on a sanctimonious look. Immediately after talking in a shocking manner, he went to the rear of his cell, began reading the Bible, and cried bitterly. There were only two placeB, heaven and hell, and he thought it didn't make much difference to which he should go. During his talk in the morning he said people thought he would be led out like a dog, but he was going out like a man and "talk to them infernal newspaper akunkB." Rev. Bray, colored, of Mt. Vernon, and Rev. Russell, of the Congregationalist Churoh, Mansfield, held the last service with Webb at 9 o'clock. He laughed when they came in, and seemed pleased to Bee them. After the clergy had gone, the prisoner engaged himeelf the balance of tne lorenoon singing, so necouia oeneara for a half square away, and at times laughed loudly. Sheriff Ritchie read the death warrant to him in his cell about the time the mob had begun tearing down the enclosure. He paesed it by with some slight remark as a very small affair, and after this was heard to say no more. AT THE SALLOWS. At twentytwo minutes past 12 o'clock the prisoner appeared, coming through the passage way from the jail. Sheriff Kitcbie waa on one side and Bberitt uay, of Knox county, on the other, the tbree being preceded by the ministers and followed by the visiting Sheriffs and deputies. Webb's arms had been pinioned back in the tail, though vorr much againBt hia will. When he came out of the passage way, which had been constructed from the rear of the jail to the enclosure, the immense crowd burst upon his view at the moment. As he passed through the crowd he looked around in an unconcerned manner and smiled. It was evident, however, that his actions were affected in a measure, although a strong effort was being made on his part to conceal all. He ascended the scaffold with a firm, steadv Btep. and In the mo ments of hesitation after he had arrived on the platform, he scanned the entire people, from the house tops to tbe farthest distance on the outskirts, So searching minim MAKE FINE Cassimere Suits to Order Foj? $25.

At 12:25 the cap was placed on Webb's bead, with the face piece falling back, and he was told to stand upon the trap. He took the position in a very deliberate manner. While standing there with a white handkerchief in his left hand, the noose was fixed about his neck, the knot falling a little behind the left ear. Sheriff Gay assisted Sheriff Bitche in adjusting the rope, after which the latter asked Webb if he had anything to say. For about a minute ell was silent and the prisoner stood motionless, with bis eyes fixed on some object at a slightly elevated range. Hia lips were in a natural position, slightly apart, and at a critical moment like this not a mUBcle could be seen to move about him, or the quiver of a hand or limb, In this brief minute, when all seemed suspense and quiet, Bev. Busseli spoke out in a plain, firm tone, saying, " Remember, Webb, what I told you." It is not known exactly what the import of the remark was, whether to warn him against making a confession, or reminding him to keep his mind on the religious instruction which he had received. Not more than a minute passed in silence, Webb having nothing to say, when -the black cap was pulled over his face. Bev. Bray read a short passage of scripture and Bsv. Busseli offered a word of prayer commending hia spirit to its maker. After Bsv. Busseli had concluded grayer he spoke to Sheriff Bilcbie twice, who was at the rear, telling him that all was ready. The officer was engaged in giving attention to some other detail. Such dread suspense as prevailed at this moment can not be told. Tight grips ware unconsciously made to boards and poBla, while many eyes almost refused to perform their office for want of courage, and not a few felt lumps rising in their throats. At 12:28 the drop fell, and Edward Webb slipped through the narrow passageway which separated his dishonored seg ment of time from the broad ex panse of eternity. The only noticeable features in the fall were the eharp creaking of tbe heavy beam and the snapping sound wbioh the rope made from its very heavy weight. The rope stretched a great deal and owing to its pliable nature, the body when it fell came down with a surge and bounced np again several inohes. Sheriff Gay caught the body and stopped the whirling motion. The only struggles noticeable were two bendings of the body, seemingly an effort to put the feet forward, and between these waa a dreaded tremor of the whole frame. The physicians began taking notes on the pulsations, which was as follows : At 2i minutes, thirty pulsations; 3 minutes, twentynine pulsations; 8 minutes, fifteen pulsations; 4 minutes, eleven pulsations; 4 minutes, eight pulsations; 6 minutes eight pulsations; 6 minutes nine pulsations, very indistinct; 6 minutes, nine pulsations; CJ minutes, six pulsations; 7 minutes, five pulsations; 7J minutes, heart stopped beating. At 10 minutes Webb was pronounoed dead, and at the end of 20 minutes the body was placed in its coffin and removed to the jail. It was found on examination, that the neck had been broken in two plaoes. Some difficulty waa experienced in getting the coffin to the scaffold, as it had to be hauled over tbe heads of a dense and surging crowd. So great was the desire to see the body that two men had a fight for favorite positions beneath the scaffold. The hanging was pronounced a very creditable affair, so far as such things can be creditable. When Webb fell the noose slipped around directly to tbe back of his neck; that waa considered prefera-able to having it slip forward. The body was taken from the jail by the authorities at 3 o'clock and buried in a cemetery near the city. webb's crime. Every person who reads newspapers is doubtless well acquainted with the circumstances of the crime for which Webb paid the penalty yesterday. After being published so muoh in detail, it would seem folly to here reproduce the full account. It is sufficient to atate that on the night of the 6th of last December he entered the bouse of W. S. Finney in the night time and killed Mr. Finney and attempted murder on Beveral others of the family, some of them receiving serious and lasting injuries at his hands. Webb waa arrested the next morning after the murder; waa given a fair trial in the courts of Richland oounty; defended by able counsel, and at the conclusion of the trial waB sentenced to be hanged May SI. It will be a county historic event of no little importance, for the reason that Webb is the first of thirty murderers who have satisfied the law. To day will go down in common parlance in Richland county history as "the day Webb was hung." THB TURF. Jockey clnb Races. Cincinnati, May 81.The weather was clear and tbe attendance two thousand.

Terrel Trial at liOsnu. Special to the Ohio 3lato Journal. Looan, Ohio, May 31. Yesterday afternoon was consumed in taking testimony before the Court in the absence of the jury, to ascertain its admissibility in the oase, The jury was again excluded this morning, and new testimony introduced to ascertain the correctness and possible errors of the testimony which the defense wish to exclude. Attorneys who conducted the preliminary trial testified, from memory, to the correctness of testimony of witnesses, and the prisoner'a mother also was on hand to state to the court the prisoner's education, mental ability and habits. Argument is now being conduoted by the defense upon the manner in which the officers obtained the prisoner's statements, claiming that it was through threats and assurances of more favor if he was guilty or implicated. Mr. John 8. Frieener made a weighty argument, and cited the best authoriiy on the matter. The weather 1b more favorable, and the attendance in the court room is much increased this afternoon, nearly one hundred ladies being present. The prisoner continues to carry a full, fresh countenance, and rests apparently easy in bia chair. His mother and sisters are constant and prompt attendants. There is no telling, from the present progress, when this trial will close. Heavy Verdict for ltamaKoa. Special to the Ohio State Journal. Cambridge, May 31. The big case of Depew v.

The reported Interview with the President at Gettysburg yesterday, in regard to tbe Potter investigating committee, 1b pronounced at the executive Mansion to be predicated on a very Blight foundation, if it has any basis at all. It ia said that the President was so continuously occupied with the oeremoniea and the services connected with his visit that there was no time for interviews, and besides language ia attributed to him which he could not have uttered under any circumstances, especially now, as during the electoral count in Florida and Louisiana, he takes no part in the question, being content to leave the investigation where it ia now lodged and to await the result without interference on his part in any wav what ever. It is also said at the Executive Mansion that Postmaster Key's open letter was not submitted to the President and the Cabinet before it was famished the press, and that its preparation and publication rested with himself alone. NOMINATIONS CONFIRMED. The Senate has confirmed the follow ing nominations: Collectors of Internal Eevenue Amor Smith ir.. First District of Ohio, vice Weilzel, removed ; Jamea T, Rapier, Second district of Alabama, vice Booth, removed. Postmasters Charles Holden jr., AHoona, Illinois. The Senate rejected the nomination of Wm. JN. Berkeley for reappointment as Postmaster at Alexandria, Virginia. Xl.Vtb Congress First geaaloD. SS.NATI. The President pro tempore laid before the Senate tbe concurrent resolution of the Senate providiog for the final adjournment of Congress on the 10th of June, together with the amendment ol tna House ot ttepresenta- tives, fixing June 17 as the date. Mr. wiadom moved to refer the resolution and amendment to the committee on Appropriations.Mr. Hamlin hoped the amendment would be concurred in now. He thought the soon er the day of final adjournment should be niea, tne netterit would do. Mr. hdmunds said be desired to consider the matter, and the resolution might as well lay over until to-morrow, when it could be disposed ot; and upon his motion the resolution wns laid on the table, to be taken up again to-morrow. Mr. uavis caned up me out providing lor the appointment of an additional Circuit Judge in the Seventh Judicial circuit, com- posea ot tne states ot Indiana and Illinois, which led to a political discussion. Mr. Blaine referring to tne remarks ot Messrs. Morean and Hill when the bill was up Wednesday last, said they desired to have the bill postponed until a Democratic Senate could couhrm the appointments. He thought it a most extraordinary statement. The whole history of the Democratic party for sixty years had been to make the Supreme Bench of the United States a political bench. He referred to tbe appointment of John G. Crittendso, by Fillmore, and of Judge Badge, by John Quiacy Adams, and said a Democratic Senate refused to confirm their nominations. Mr. Thurmsn said while 3C0O suitors in Chicago were waiting to have their cases decided, the Senator from Maine (Blaine) was raxing up tne records ot tne country to find out the politics of the judges appointed. There were two Bides to that question, and it tue senate would agree to adjourn on tne 17th of October instead of the 17th of June, he (Thurman) would enter upon the discus sion of that question with the Senator. measrs. Morgan and xiill denied tnat tney desired to postpone the appointment of additional judges until there should be a Democratic Senate, and argued there should be some general law on this subject, and the judges should be appointed without refer ence to politics, The bill was then read tue third time and passed. Mr. Thurman, from tbe committee on Judiciary, reported a substitute for tho Senate bill to alter and amend the laws in relation to the filing of Pacific railroad reports, and also to amend the title of the bill bo as to read, a bill to create an auditor of railroad accounts and for other purposes." Placed on the calendar. He gave notice he would call tbe bill up for consideration in the morning hour at an early day. It waB a measure which would meet with no opposition, and the paBsage of the bill as soon as possible was a matter of necessity. Mr. Bayard, irom tne committee on private Land Claims, reported adversely on the bill recently introduced by Mr.Matthews, making a pre-emption grant to the heirs of Jean Baptiste Beaubien, deceased, for a part of Fort Dearborn Reservation, at Chicago, and to confirm the purchasers of other parts in their titles and to convey to the city of Chicago the. streets and alleys of said reservation. The bill was indefinitely postponed. Mr. Matthews gave notice that on Tuesday next he would call up the Texas Pacific Railroad bill. At the conclusion of the morning business, consideration was resumed of the Legislative, Judicial and Executive Appropriation bill. Tbe pending question being upon the amendment of Mr. Spencer to continue the Clerk to the committee on Military Affairs during the recent at an annual salary of $2000, after a lengthy discussion it was agreed to yeas 81, nays 9. Mr. Euitls submitted an amendment ap propriating $12,000 for additional clerks In the office of the Surveyor General of Louisiana. Rejected yeas 14, nays 26. Mr. Morgan sobmitted an amendment appropriating $5000 to investigate the history and habits of insects injurious to the cotton plant and the best means of destroying the same. Agreed to. Mr. Eustis submitted an amendment increasing the appropriation for clerks in the office of tbe Surveyor General of Louisiana from $1000 to $6000. Agreed to. Several unimportant amendments were agreed to, and the bill having been considered in committee of the Whole, was re ported to tne senate, read tne tmrd time ana passed. Mr. Hamlin moved to take up the concurrent resolution, reported from the com mittee on Foreign Relatione, approving of tue views or tnat committee embraced in the report to accompany the bill providing for tbe payment of tbe award made by the Fisheries Commission at Halifax nnder the treaty of Washington. Mr. Edmunds moved to take up the bill reported by him last week from a seleot committee in regard to Presidential elections, and to provide for and reinstate the connting of votes for President and Vice President of the United States and tbe decision of questions arising thereon. Mr. Ferry moved to take up the Post Route bill. Mr. Hereford said be was surprised that the Senator from Michigan (Ferry) moved to take up the Post Route bill while the specie resumption act was before the Senate. A vote cuuld be taken on that bill in a very short time, and the people of the country would then know what to depend upon. Mr. Spencer moved to take up the river and harbor appropriation bill. Mr. Ferry said it was not his purpose to defer consideration of the bill to repeal the specie resumption act, but it was not his understanding that the bill should be considered immediately after the passage of the legislative appropriation bill. The Postoffice Department was urging the passage of the Post Route bill. Mr. Allison said the Senator from West Virginia ( Hereford) need not be disturbed very much if there sheuld be no further legislation on the question of finances at this session. Mr. Hamlin said it was absolutely neces-Siry to act upon the fishery award subject, so as to avoid an extra session of Congress. Mr. Edmunds spoke of the importance of actiog upon the bill in regard to Presidential elections and said all the Senators knew that the nearer we approached to an election tbe greater were the difficulties encountered in sectling this question. The bill should be acted upon at this Bession of Congress. Mr. Beck favored consideration of the bill to repeal the Specie Resumption act, and sn id he did.not think Congress had done half enough in regard to these financial measures.The motion of Mr. Hamlin to take up the concurrent resolution in regard to the fishery award was agreed to yeas 35, nays 20. Mr. Edmunds moved to amend the concurrent resolution by adding the words: "That if, under the circumstances, the Government of Great Britain shall receive the sum of money referred to, the provisions of said treaty on the subject ought to be terminated at an earlier time consistent with the tbirtythird article of Baid treaty." Mr. Beck gave notice that when the bill in regard to the payment of this award should be taken up, he would submit an amendment providing for the payment of five and a half million dollars .by the President, etc., if the British Minister resident at Washington lays before him such evidence as, in the opinion of the Attorney General of the United States, renders it certain that the British Ministry and Crown lawyers deoided and insisted that the award as made whb in strict accordance with law. and would have been regarded by them as binding and conclusive on the British Gov ernment if it had been adverse to their claim, and ha shall not direct the ptyment of any part of the money hereby appropriated, until such decision is furnished as aforesaid. Mr. Hamlin argued that the award was grossly exorbitant and hu did not think our nshermen wanted to enjoy the privilege at any such price. He favored the amend ment of Mr. Edmunds. Mr. Bavard did not approve the amend ment of Mr. Edmunds, because it was like a threat or a menace to accompany the payment. He concurred with the committee on Foreign Relatioua that the amount was ex cessive, but the proceeding) of the Commission were regular and authorized by the terms of the treaty. The amount of the award did not touch tbe legality of the proceedings. This country must not forget that tbe Alabama claims were Bettled to the fullest pecuniary satisfaction of the American Government and that the award was paid without comment of any kind. Now comes our side of the question and on this we were debtors. He hoped the money would be paid ia the manner recommended by tbe committee on Foreign Relations. tVe could not find fault with the treatv and break it after the American peo ple bad received and held to-day the money received from the Geneva award. Mr. Edmunds denied that there was any thing like a menace in his amendment. It waB merely to express a just right of this Nation to terminate tha fishery provision of the treaty. England was a friendly power. Her people spoke the same language as ours. She waB in a critical condition at this moment, and yet it tbe worst come in her present difficulties, the United States would exercise the greatest industry to preserve our honor and neutrality to tender the treaty so that hereafter thire would be no occcasion for any citizen of her Majes-tv's Government to comDlaln of the United States, as theie had been for the citizens of the United States to complain of the action of the British Government on a recent occasion.Mr. Kernan favored the report ot tbe com mittee on Foreign Relations to bring the matter to the attention of tbe Executive for further correspondence. Pending discussion the Senate went Into Executive session, and when tbe doors were reopened adjourned. HOUBK. Mr. O'Neill presented a memorial of tbe Centennial Board of Finance asking for relief. Referred. On motion of Mr. Atkins, the bill appro priating twenty thousand dollars to defray the expenses of the Potter Investigating committee was taken from tbe calendar and passed without discussion.

Collision of Ironclads in Dover Strait The Grosser Kurfiirst Gobs Down In Five Minutes. Startling Effect Supposed to be an Explosion. Number of Lives Lost Estimated at Three Hundred. London, May 81. The German iron clad Uroaeer ivurfurat came in collision with the ironclad Koening Wilhelm at 9:46 this morning, three miles off Folkstone. The Grosser Kurfuret sank almost immediately, and her boilers exploded aa she went down. The weather was bright and the sea calm at the time ol tbe disaster. It is reported from Dover that only eighteen persons escaped of her complement of 460 officers and men on board, ihe Uroaeer Jlur fuist boats went from the shore and were sent from other vessels of the German fleet to the assistance of the drowning people,- and it is hoped that more lives were saved. The German cquadron, consisting of three ironclads, Ihe frussen, the Urosser Kurfuret and tbe Eoenig Wilhelm passed Dover at 8:45 this morning bound for Plymouth, whence it expected to sail for Gibraltar. When the squadron was off Ludgate, about Ave miles from shore, one of the ironclads was observed to be gradually keeling over on her beam ends and men were seen crowding on the bulwarks. In about five minutes the vessel went down on her Bide, her boilers blowing up as she sank. New Yobs, May 31. London dispatches state that the German Embassy is informed that four hundred and tjfty persona were drowned by the sinking of the ironclad Groaser Ktirfur-it. The Ger man Ambassador, with the Crown Prince, has gone by special train to the scene of tbe disaster. London, May 31. According to the report of the disaster received by the Ad miralty, the collision occurred seven miles southeast of Folkstone. The latest dispatch from Dover says : "The forward part of the iron-clad Eoe nig Wilhelm is nnder water." W. xl. oniltd, f irst Liord ot tbe Ad miralty, stated in the House of Commons this afternoon that according to reports received by the Lords of the Admiralty from one hundred and eighty to two hundred of the crew of the Urosser lvur- furat had been saved, and three hundred perished. Ihe Grosser Kurfurst was the flagship of tbe squadron. ibe Admiral commanding tbe squad ron was among the saved. Last Night's Dispatches.l London, May 31. A steamer just re turned from the scene of the disaster reports tbe Koenig Wilhelm was able to proceed down the channel probably as far as Portsmouth. The PruBsen remains on the spot. Nothing is to be seen of the Grosser Eurfurst. The Captain of a fishing boat makes the following statement : My boat, with other fishing vessels, was returning to Folkstone, when we noticed three iron-clada coming down. A bark was fetching off shore. The GroBser Eurfurst ported her helm to clear the bark. The Eoenig -Wilhelm pulled hard a-port and struck the Grosser Eurfurst forward of her miizsn-mast. The Eurfurst went over on her broadside and sank in five minutes. She went down in fifteen fathoms. All hands jumped overboard. Our boats reached the spot directly alterward and rescued twentyseven men, including three officers. The other boats rescued a number of the crew, all of whom were transferred to the Eoenig Wilhelm. Captain Batoch, of the Grosser Eurfurst, went down with his ship. The boilers did not explode, but the escaping steam must have scalded many persons in the water. The Eoenig Wilhelm had her bows Btove, but the leak was stopped with hammocks. The collision was undoubtedly caused by the Eoenig Wilhelm porting her helm too suddenly. Mr. Smith, first Lord of the Admiralty, in his statement in the House of Commons to day, confirms the report that the oollieion occurred while the Grosser Eurfurst waa endeavoring to avoid a mer chantman. He said a dock waa prepar ing at Portsmouth for the reception of the Eoenig Wilhelm. She is now proceeding thither. ISecond Dispatch. 1 London, May 31. Two of the men rescued died from exhaustion on board the Freussen, Eye witnesses of the disaster say the Preuseen did not lower any boats, and that nobody was visible in the water half an hour after the Grosser Eurfurst foun dered. The Eoenig Wilhelm, which is the flag ship, carrying Bear Admiral Batsch, and the Preussen, are expected at Portsmouth to-morrow morning. Tbe Voltaire Centennial Celebra tion. Paris, May 81. The Voltaire celebration, which was organized by the men of letters and took place in the Gaiete Theater yesterday, was attended by about 2000 persons. Admission was by tickets, for which from fifty centimes to eight francs were charged according to location, the receipts being devoted to the poor of Paris. The proceedings were marked by no special Bcenea of excitement. A celebration waa held at- the same hour by the Free Thinkers at the American circus. Admissions were by ticket, but without charge. The audience numbered about 6900. Several epeeches were made wholly devoted to proving Voltaire's enmity to all religion. The audience was very enthusiastic. After the speeches the statue of Voltaire was crowned with flowers. Deputations representing Paris and the provinces, with banners, marched around, it while the band played and the audience Bang the "Marseilles." It waB the original intention of the movers of the meeting to erect the statue publicly in the Place Chateau d'Eau, but the Government forbade it. The Government also prohibited public ceremony by the clericals in honor of Joan of Arc, While the two Voltaire celebrations were proceeding, the Cathedral of Notre Dame was filled by an immense congregation, consisting principally of women, to take part in expiatory serviceB ordered by the Cardinal Archbishop of Paris. The interior of the ohuroh was darkened: expiatory tapers were burned before all the altars, as well as from the pulpit. A discourse was delivered, in which the preacher denounced Voltaire and glorified Joan of Arc Tbe Trouble Between Ibe Tnrka and JHonteuegrlBi Allayed for Ibe Present. London, May 81. A special from Scutari Albania via Bagusa states that through the mediation of the British ConBtil, the conflict which impended near Podgerilza, between the Turks and Montenegrins has been avertod. But for the Consul's efforts a collision would have taken plaoe in a few hours. The Prince of Montenegro finally pledged his word in case hostilities were renewed, he would give the Turkish Commandant of Podgerilza ample notice. This paciflo turn in affairs there is believed to be attributed mainly to private Intimations received by Prince Nikita from St, Petersburg, Gladstone an an English Protectorate for Aalmlc Turner. London, May 81, Gladstone has an artiole in the Nineteenth Century enti tled "Liberty in the East and West," dealing with current political questions, In; the course of the article reference is made to the alleged intention of the Gov. eminent to assume a protectorate over Asiatic Auraav.

A Boise City dispatch says the Bannock Indians, numbering about two hundred warriors, under the command of Buffalo Horn, a noted scout, are encamped in the Lava cede between JJtg Uamas prairie and Snake river, and have ordered the whites to leave the prairie on penaltv of death. They have already commenced hostilities by Bhooting two settlers, wounding both severely. The Indians are well supplied with ammunition sold them at Boise Citv about two weeks ago, on the order of Governor Brayman, on Ihe ground that they were gooa Indians.

Militia Overpowered and the Enclosure Thrown Down. Fifteen Thousand People Witness tbe Legal Taking Off. Mansfield, May 81. To the Editor of the Ohio State Journal: Edward Webb, the Mansfield murderer, paid his debt to day amid the screams and howls of an excited and drunken mob. Your dispatches this morning gave information to the effect that the officials had grounds for believing that the officers of law would be superseded by violence, and this suspicion proved to be well founded. All the precaution which local military could offer was taken, but tbe forces at hand proved as bo much chart before a growing. Btorm. The indications last night in the arrival of people of all class es in the city, served tOBhowvery plainly what the condition of affairs would be today. During the whole night the streets were lined by the ring leaders, who were engaged in "corning" op preparatory to leading tbe willing forces to-day. THE MORNING ARRIVALS. The earliest morning trsina were bur dened with curiosity eeekers who shed themselves in the city, and these were followed by special trains over tbe Pittsburg, Ft. Wayne and Chicago road, on which xcurBion rates bad been Becured, and with the important attraction there was no want of numbers to make the enterprise a profitable one. While thou sands came by rail, they were meager in comparison to those who came from the surrounding country by private conveyances, Soon after daylight, tne feed stables began to fill up from thia source, and it was not long until all were crowded, They came by wagon and buggy loads accompanied by women in many inetances and presented very much the appearance of an old-fashioned Fourth of July occasion minus the cleanliness and quality of the clothing worn. A feature of the morning arrivals were the i . i. i .u came on horseback at full speed, with long hair dangling in the air. Ihie class came to the heart of the city from all the avenues of approach, and in such numbers that, like Rhoderic Dew's forces, they seemed to rise up from every fence corner and bush. AFFEARANCE OF THE STREETS. The bud rose in all its glory this morn ing and looked down resplendent on the beautiful streets of Mansfield occupying its crested ridge. Her ten thousand people were out early, to renew the only im portant topic of conversation with the new arrivals. Tbe principal streets were soon thronged with people, none of whom seemed to have any Bpecial place to go. As the hours of morning grew on, tbe streets became so densely packed as to make 'pedeatnamsm decidedly inconvenient without choosing the middle of the Btreet for passage. The streets were lined with teams at every available point, and the alleys were crowded full of horses turned to their day's rations. The public square furnished a large acreage for the accommodation of conveyances, and it was almost entirely lined around. So auspicious an occasion could not be lost eight of by the enterprising street criers. .fop corn ana peanut stanus ma a nourishing business at every corner, while lemonade and candy booths came in for a good rival share of patronage. These were located more especially on the streets leading to the jail, and were consequently crowded about all the time. One firm entered into business more extensive and with a greater degree of freedom than otheiB, by establishing a candy factory at the southeast corner oi toe Jan. xiere candy waa manufactured from the boiling nuia over a temporary furnace and the auctioneer gathered customers around him with the understanding that it would be some time before the show would begin. It is safe to say that the streets of Mansfield never before presented such immense throngs of people, not excepting State Fair times. CROWDS ABOUT THE JAIL. As soou as the mob element and greedy curiosity seekers could do so in the morning they retired in the direction of the jail, with as much regularity as if each had a reserved seat, seeing now completely they were shut out from view, a spirit of uneasiness naturally arose, continually augmented by new arrivals. The streets leading to the jail In each direction were soon packed solid with humanity in all its phases for squares away. The house and barn tops were covered, some making an effort to Bee in this manner at a quarter of a mile range. Mingled with the dense crowd in every direction was a liberal sprinkling of women and children, who were as enthusiastic in their demonstrations as the more important factor of the mob element. The crowds gathered early, and as the hour drew on they became restlesB, and an occasional scream of excitement would run through the immense mass, showing that their demonstrations meant something more than the noise which they were making. Three, four and five hours beneath the almoBt smothering rays of the sun, was ill intended to soften the feelings of a disappointed mob. It was evident that all that was needed was a few ring-leaders to break the guard, and the orderly proceedings of law and justice were at an end. THB MANSFIELD BLUES did guard duty on the outside of the jail, and were assisted by tne regular omcera of the city, besides a corps of specials. Shortly before 11 o'clock, Captain Bell received orders to avoid shooting any person under all oiroumstances. It is not known whether the information reached the rank and file of the disappointed or not, but at any rate they beoame more boiattrous immediately afterward and pressed much harder on tbe guard line. What would have seemed an injudicious movement, about eleven o'clock two of the blue coats were stationed on the top of the enclosure, with guns in band, in a measure admitting that the mob might scale tbe fence, but resistance would be offered at a more important point. THE DREADED MOMENT. The crowd had about reached its largest, and the excitement ran the highest about eleven o'clock, when it was estimated by good judges that there were fifteen thousand people about the jail and vicinity. Some placed the number much higher. though it may have been less. With a wild and sickly yell they swept down across the guard as if thev were so many children, and hav ing cleared the fence, they began beating the enclosure with stones and rails, and in less than three minutes had the entire siding torn off, Bave a few boards and the frame work which sup ported the scaffold. The excitement LANDAUERS ADVERTISE ONLY THE FACTS. The Proofs Are Always in Readiness LANDAUERS HAVE A Large Stock OF Furnishing Goods! LANDAUERS OFFER Special Inducements IN Children's Clothing LANDAUERS ARE NEVER UNDERSOLD ! which followed is beyond description. Curing the time the boaids were being strung around as eo many shingles, the newspaper men, to the extent. of ten or fifteen, who had taken positions in the enclosure, Beemed to immediately have business in other quarters. Several of them were seen shortly afterward sitting on the jail building, taking notes on the situation. Sheriff Ritchie, visiting Sheriffs and officials, all struggled to make speeches, but none could gain a hearing for some time. As soon as the scaffold had been cleared for view on all sides, there was an almost death struggle for favorite positions. All the available buildings near by were then covered over. All the space within seeing dis-tance of the scaffold was filled up solid onlv leaving the small apace vacant, im mediately beneath the scaffold. SPEEOHES AND QROWLS. A?(er the mob had ventilated them selves on the score that they would not ride twentyfive or thirty miles and then be disappointed on a hanging spree, Sheriff Bitchie finally gained a hearing. He Baid they had voted for him; put him there and he was trving to observe the law. He eaid : "Men, I want you to help me. I have telegraphed tbe uovernor ana we win Eroceed aa soon as a reply can e bad." The mob cheered the Sheriff, and assured him they would help him carry out the law. Tbe remarks of the Sheriff were received with as much favor as if all before him were a beloved constituency. During tbe interval the officials were awaiting an answer from Governor Bishop as to what course to pursue, the crowd engaged in tavoriie expressions such as "Fetch out the Darkie," or "Bring on your nigger." A few minutes after twelve the Sheriff again appeared on the scaffold, and Baid the Prosecuting Attorney, Mr. Burns, would speak his sentiments. Mr. Burns said that in twenty minutes the prisoner would be on tbe stand with tbe eheitt and proper assistants, and asked certain favors of the crowd in regard to room near the scaffold, which, of courae.was not acceded to. A, J. Mack also made a speech to the crowd, and the omcials retired to the jail, but did not appear with the prisoner until twentytwo minutes past twelve. webb's last hours. The stolid indifference to his doom which the prisoner has maintained all along is something wonderful, and seems to place him among the moral monstrosities. Thursday evening he eat quite a hearty supper and retired about pine o'clock, securing a good night's Bleep. He arose about five o'clock this morning. smoked a cigir, and a half hour later eat some cake and drank a cup ol tea. This has been hia favorite diet for the past three weeks. The clothes in which he was to be executed were placed on the prisoner by Deputy Qrove when the former arose in the morning. The suit consisted of a black frock coat, light pants, white socks and slippers, and a white shirt with collar and tie. Webb seemed very proud of his suit and spent a good deal of time in brushing around and looking at himself. About six o'clock this morning, he took leave of his colored friends, bidding them geod-by, and from seven to half-past seven he waa in charge of two guards, when he gave vent to some of the most obscene language in the form of dying requests, The speoial matters referred to are unfit for print. He very much desired a pin to fix something about his pants, and was furnished a string for the purpose, and then he called for a breastpin; he wanted to put it on bis shirt front and go out to the scaffold as big as any preacher. The prisoner told the guards he wanted to know when the ladies were coming, so he could put on a sanctimonious look. Immediately after talking in a shocking manner, he went to the rear of his cell, began reading the Bible, and cried bitterly. There were only two placeB, heaven and hell, and he thought it didn't make much difference to which he should go. During his talk in the morning he said people thought he would be led out like a dog, but he was going out like a man and "talk to them infernal newspaper akunkB." Rev. Bray, colored, of Mt. Vernon, and Rev. Russell, of the Congregationalist Churoh, Mansfield, held the last service with Webb at 9 o'clock. He laughed when they came in, and seemed pleased to Bee them. After the clergy had gone, the prisoner engaged himeelf the balance of tne lorenoon singing, so necouia oeneara for a half square away, and at times laughed loudly. Sheriff Ritchie read the death warrant to him in his cell about the time the mob had begun tearing down the enclosure. He paesed it by with some slight remark as a very small affair, and after this was heard to say no more. AT THE SALLOWS. At twentytwo minutes past 12 o'clock the prisoner appeared, coming through the passage way from the jail. Sheriff Kitcbie waa on one side and Bberitt uay, of Knox county, on the other, the tbree being preceded by the ministers and followed by the visiting Sheriffs and deputies. Webb's arms had been pinioned back in the tail, though vorr much againBt hia will. When he came out of the passage way, which had been constructed from the rear of the jail to the enclosure, the immense crowd burst upon his view at the moment. As he passed through the crowd he looked around in an unconcerned manner and smiled. It was evident, however, that his actions were affected in a measure, although a strong effort was being made on his part to conceal all. He ascended the scaffold with a firm, steadv Btep. and In the mo ments of hesitation after he had arrived on the platform, he scanned the entire people, from the house tops to tbe farthest distance on the outskirts, So searching minim MAKE FINE Cassimere Suits to Order Foj? $25.

At 12:25 the cap was placed on Webb's bead, with the face piece falling back, and he was told to stand upon the trap. He took the position in a very deliberate manner. While standing there with a white handkerchief in his left hand, the noose was fixed about his neck, the knot falling a little behind the left ear. Sheriff Gay assisted Sheriff Bitche in adjusting the rope, after which the latter asked Webb if he had anything to say. For about a minute ell was silent and the prisoner stood motionless, with bis eyes fixed on some object at a slightly elevated range. Hia lips were in a natural position, slightly apart, and at a critical moment like this not a mUBcle could be seen to move about him, or the quiver of a hand or limb, In this brief minute, when all seemed suspense and quiet, Bev. Busseli spoke out in a plain, firm tone, saying, " Remember, Webb, what I told you." It is not known exactly what the import of the remark was, whether to warn him against making a confession, or reminding him to keep his mind on the religious instruction which he had received. Not more than a minute passed in silence, Webb having nothing to say, when -the black cap was pulled over his face. Bev. Bray read a short passage of scripture and Bsv. Busseli offered a word of prayer commending hia spirit to its maker. After Bsv. Busseli had concluded grayer he spoke to Sheriff Bilcbie twice, who was at the rear, telling him that all was ready. The officer was engaged in giving attention to some other detail. Such dread suspense as prevailed at this moment can not be told. Tight grips ware unconsciously made to boards and poBla, while many eyes almost refused to perform their office for want of courage, and not a few felt lumps rising in their throats. At 12:28 the drop fell, and Edward Webb slipped through the narrow passageway which separated his dishonored seg ment of time from the broad ex panse of eternity. The only noticeable features in the fall were the eharp creaking of tbe heavy beam and the snapping sound wbioh the rope made from its very heavy weight. The rope stretched a great deal and owing to its pliable nature, the body when it fell came down with a surge and bounced np again several inohes. Sheriff Gay caught the body and stopped the whirling motion. The only struggles noticeable were two bendings of the body, seemingly an effort to put the feet forward, and between these waa a dreaded tremor of the whole frame. The physicians began taking notes on the pulsations, which was as follows : At 2i minutes, thirty pulsations; 3 minutes, twentynine pulsations; 8 minutes, fifteen pulsations; 4 minutes, eleven pulsations; 4 minutes, eight pulsations; 6 minutes eight pulsations; 6 minutes nine pulsations, very indistinct; 6 minutes, nine pulsations; CJ minutes, six pulsations; 7 minutes, five pulsations; 7J minutes, heart stopped beating. At 10 minutes Webb was pronounoed dead, and at the end of 20 minutes the body was placed in its coffin and removed to the jail. It was found on examination, that the neck had been broken in two plaoes. Some difficulty waa experienced in getting the coffin to the scaffold, as it had to be hauled over tbe heads of a dense and surging crowd. So great was the desire to see the body that two men had a fight for favorite positions beneath the scaffold. The hanging was pronounced a very creditable affair, so far as such things can be creditable. When Webb fell the noose slipped around directly to tbe back of his neck; that waa considered prefera-able to having it slip forward. The body was taken from the jail by the authorities at 3 o'clock and buried in a cemetery near the city. webb's crime. Every person who reads newspapers is doubtless well acquainted with the circumstances of the crime for which Webb paid the penalty yesterday. After being published so muoh in detail, it would seem folly to here reproduce the full account. It is sufficient to atate that on the night of the 6th of last December he entered the bouse of W. S. Finney in the night time and killed Mr. Finney and attempted murder on Beveral others of the family, some of them receiving serious and lasting injuries at his hands. Webb waa arrested the next morning after the murder; waa given a fair trial in the courts of Richland oounty; defended by able counsel, and at the conclusion of the trial waB sentenced to be hanged May SI. It will be a county historic event of no little importance, for the reason that Webb is the first of thirty murderers who have satisfied the law. To day will go down in common parlance in Richland county history as "the day Webb was hung." THB TURF. Jockey clnb Races. Cincinnati, May 81.The weather was clear and tbe attendance two thousand.
