GOD'S MINISTERS Jailed, Whipped and Driven from Fredor lcksburg. The Frcdcricksburg Free Lance. Tradition Bays that about tbe year 1789 two itinerant Baptist preachers undertook to teach the doctrines of their church to the people of Fredericksburg, and for that offense they were jailed, whipped and driven from the city by a mob of indignant citizens. After the8COurging had been adminis? tered the holy men of God, tradition con? tinues, shook the dust of the city from their feet and invoked heaves to .-end a curse upon Fredericksburg for a hundred years. Nothing was ever heard of these goood men after their departure, but their words burned deep in the minds of those who 'heard their invocation to heaven, and no casualty has occurred here, no public calamity has befallen the city since, that ha3 not reminded many of the older inhabitants of the curse called down by the men whose backs were striped while in the discharge of what they believed to be their duty to mankind. Wo might if we saw proper to give the names of surviving and dead men and women of Fredericksburg who firmly believed, and still believe, that many of the easualtiea (and they have been num? erous and severe) which have befallen Fredericksburg were due to tbe prayers of the persecuted men of God, and whenever a disastrous fire, flood or inci? dent of war occurred which damaged the town materially, gave utterance to the belief that it was a part of heaven's curse. The distant reader who has never heard this tradition may rest assured that it is not a mythical story we repeat about the whipping of these godly men and the curse they prayed might come upon Fredericksburg. Of course there are no living witness? es ; but it ia.as rauch of a part of the unwritten .history of this city as many events are of modern times. That an intense feeling prevailed in~ this locality during the last century against the Baptists, and to justify at this time the publication of thin well ?known tradition, we copy from the first series of the Virginia Baptist minutes, by James B. Taylor, a work found in the library of every minister of that faith in Virginia, a brief history of the experi? ence of Kev. Lewis Craig and his brother Elijah, in this County and Caroline, a few years prior to the period named in this article. In referring to the sermons of Lewis Craig and of his treatment, the author says : "These successful results were princi? pally manifested in the Counties of Orange and Spotsylvania. The first Baptist church organized, between the James and Bappahannock riven, called Lower Spotsylvania, afterward Craig's, was the fruit of his efforts. This church was constituted in 1767. Three years after this period he received and accept? ed an invitation to preside over them as their pastor. Additions were regularly made to their number; but in 1767 an extensive revival was enjoyed, when more than a hundred were baptized. The church continued to prosper until 1781, when their pastor removed to the western country ; a large number of the members of the church left the State with him, and a serious decline was experi? enced. "Before Elder Craig's departure to the West, he was counted worthy of his Master to suffer painful trials in the" discharge of his ministerial duties. Va? rious means were employed to alarm and eause him to give up his practice of preaching the gospel. He thought of the Saviour's dying love, and determined to go forward even at the expense of life. At length he was arrested by the eheriff of Spotsylvania, and brought before three magistrates, in the meeting house, who bound him, with others, in the penalty of ?2,000, to appear at court two days after. They attended and were arrested as disturbers pf the peace. The prose* cuting attorney represented them to be a great annoyance to the County by their seal as preachers. 'May it pleawe your worship,' said he, 'they canuot meet a man upon the road but they must ram a text of Scripture down his throat.' After 'hearing their defense tbe court deter? mined that they should be liberated, provided they would give security no more to preach in the County within twelve months. To this condition Elder 0. and his companions refused to yield. They were then sentenced to close con? finement in thejail. As they passed on to prison through the streets of Freder icksburg they united in singing' the lines: Broad is the road that leads to death. ******* "The prisoners were after a short time released. During their confinement Elder C. preached through the gates to large crowds, and was the means of doing much good. When he was permitted to go at large, he went forth with renewed spiritual strength, defending the truth aB it is in JesuB. He was enabled to thank God that he was permitted to suffer shame for the name of Christ, Day and night in his neighborhood and in all the surrounding country he ceased not to teach and preach the gospel. "In 1771, about three years after this, he was again imprisoned, in the County of Caroline. He had Beveral times: preached there, and was quite success? ful." So it will be seen from the above what the prevailing feeling was at that time against the Baptists. It is, therefore, very reasonable to believe that the tradi? tion relating to the whipping of the two itinerants, and their subsequent conduct, is as much a truth as though a matter of record or of written history. The 100 years have passed and lo, the change 1 Who in Fredericksburg to-day would think of cowbiding, imprisoning, or jeer? ing a minister for preaching the Baptist faith ? To day the Baptist church is the most popular, powerful and influential church organization in Fredericksburg. Craig church, in Spotsylvania, still stands a monument to the Christian forti? tude aud bravery of its founder, and his descendants survive, honored and re* Bpected citizens of the County. ?

Odo of tbe moat eccentric and at tbe 3ame time one of :he ablest judges that ever sat upou the far western bench was Kirby Benedict, who, for thirteen yeara, was a justice of the Supreme Court of New Mexico, having been first appointed in 1853 by President Pierce and reap* pointed by President Buchanan, and ap? pointed chief justice of the Court by President Lincoln. He was a man of great ability and leaning, strong in his prejudices, violent in his passiom and re? lentless in his convictions: There are many anecdotes told of Judge Benedict. But the crowning act of his judicial career was the sentence of death passed by him upon a prisoner convicted of murder, which sentence was as fol? lows : <(Jo3e Maria Martin, stand np. Jose Maria Martin, you have been indicted, tried and convicted by a jury of your countrymen of the crime of murder, and the court is now about to pass upon you the dread sentence of the law. As a us ual thing, Jose Maria Martin, it is a painful duty for the judge of a court of justice to pronounce upon a human being the sentence of death. There is something horrible about it, and the mind of the court naturally revolts from the perform ance of such a duty. Happily, however, your case ia relieved of all such unpleas? antness, and the court takes positive de? light in sentencing you to death. "You are a young man, Jose Maria Martin, apparently of good physical con? stitution and robust health. Ordinarily you might have looked forward to many years of life, and the court has no doubt you have, and have expected to die at a green old age; but you are about to be cut off as the consequence of your own act. Jose Maria Martin, it is now in the springtime; in a little while the grass will be springing up in these beautiful valleys, and on these broad mesas and mountain sides flowers will be blooming, birds singing above your lowly head. "The sentenee of the court is that you be taken from this place to the county jail; that you there be kept safely and securely confined in the custody of the sheriff until the day appointed for your execution. Be very careful, Mr. Sheriff, that he have no opportunity to escape and that you have him at the appointed place at the appointed time ; that you so be kept, Jose Maria Martin, until?Mr. Clerk, on what day of the month does Friday about two weeks from this time come ?" "March 22, your honor." "Very well?until Friday, tbe 22nd day of March, when-you will be taken from your place of confinement to some safe and convenient spot within the country (that is in your discretion, Mr. Sheriff; you are only confined to the limits of the county) and that you there be hanged by the neck until you are dead, and?the court was about to add, Jose Maria Martin, 'may God have mercy on your soul,' but the court will not aBs?me' the responsibility of asking r.n all wise Providence to, do that which a jury of your people have re? fused to do. The Lord could not have mercy on your soul. However, if you have any religious belief, or are connected with any religious organization, it might be well enough for you to send for your priest or your minister and get from him ?well, such consolation as you can; but the court advises to place no reliance on anything of that kind. Mr. Sheriff, re? move the prisoner.?Santa Fe Letter in Pittsburg Ledger, $5,000 Worth of Tender Conscience. Washington, February 5.?The lar? gest contribution to the much-talked of "conscience fund" at the treasury depart? ment has just been received. It was a check for $5,000, the amount for which Charles Em mons, an employee of the New York postoffice, defaulted in 1866, with interest to date. The "contribution was sent by an old time telegraph operator, who had by withholding a message aided EmmooB to escape. His name is religiously with? held. In his letter tbe gentleman states that in 1866 he was a passenger on the steam? ship "Henry Chauncey" from New York to San Francisco. He was going to accept a position with the California Telegraph Company. During the voyage he became acquainted with Charles Edmund Hast? ings, and a fast friendship grew up be? tween them. Upon their arrival in San Francisco they put up at the same hotel,, and Occupied adjoining rooms. The next day he reported for duty, and among the dispatches he received was one from Washington dirocting San Francisco officials to keep a lookout for Emmons, and stating on what charge he was want? ed, and a description of the fugitive. "The description of Emmons tallied exactly with that of my friend Hastings," he writes, ''and on the impulse of the moment I slipped the message into my Socket. When I returned to the hotel I anded it to Hastings and asked him to read it. He confessed everything." It was the old story. Emmons had sunk every dollar he possessed in specu? lation, and then used the funds of the postoffice until detection stared him in the face. He started for New Orleans, but returned to New York and embarked for California. While search was being made for him in the South he was rapid? ly steaming away to the Pacific Slope. "He begged me," the letter goes on, "not to betray him, and promised that under a new name and in a new country he would begin life over, and in a few years make good the government's loss. I promised silence and he disappeared that night." But Emmons died soon after, and his friend, who is now well to do, usb decided to make good the speculation in which he deems himself an indirect accomplice.? New York Continent. ? "On one farm in Mexico I saw enough of the luxuries of life produced to make any man happy," remarked C. S. Wood, of El Paso, Texas the other day, to a reporter for the Kansas City .Times. "The farm was not as large as some farms go in Mexico, but it was, to use a slang phrase, a 'stunner.' I don't think the mind of man oould imagine a vegetable product that could not be produced on the farm. At any rate, I saw growing coffee, sugar, rice, potatoes, rye, wheat, oats, corn, berrieB, cabbage, tomatoes, ap? ples, bananas, cocoa, figs, cochineal and a dozen other products. On the upper end of this farm you could find gold, sil? ver, sapphires, onyx and other precious stones. Some of these articles were not produced in quantities large enough to pay to market them, but they were all found there and all at the service of tbe owner of the land. Oh, I suppose, tbe farm contained 10,000 or 20,000 acres of land, but it extended through all temper? atures and all elevations." ?

Columbia, February 16.?Secretary Tindal, for the oommittee in charge of the fertilizer department, has turned over to the attorney general papers of evidence that parties in Clinton have violated the fertilizer laws, and warrants have been issued for the arrost of these parties and the railroad officials. Warrants have al? so been issued for parties in another part of the State. . The names of these are withheld because the matter will be fully investigated and the degree of criminali? ty is yet to be determined. These viola? tions of law are by parties handling gu? anos imported into the State, which, ac? cording to reports circulated among the people, have been practiced for years. Mr. Tindal says every South Carolina company with which he has correspond? ed has shown a disposition to obey the laws and it would be very unjust to allow foreign fertilizer companies to evade the tax and the general requirements of our laws, which our own people are forced to comply with.?Special to Greenville Daily Neios. A Queer Church Fight, Charleston, S. C, February 12.? One of the queerest of the many queer Church cases that find their way into Court was settled to-day. The congrega? tion of the Morris Street Baptist Church, colored, had a falling out, and split into two factions, one, of course, headed by the pastor, Rev. J. L. Dart. The other faction got out an injunction recently re? straining the pastor's faction from using the Church, and asking that all the prop? erty be sold out and divided among the congregation. A temporary injunction was granted, and the case argued to-day. Among the property of the Church is a cemetery, and the point was raised that this portion of the assets could hardly be sold out, and the proceeds divided. Pend? ing the decision a receiver was appointed for the cemetery, with instructions to al? low anybody to be interred therein who might be entitled to interment. Judge Norton to-day dissolved the injunction, and the pastor's party will resume pos? session at once. The congregation is the largest and most prosperous colored Bap? tist congregation in the State. The case will probably be carried up to the Supreme Court.
