Charles Howard, a murdeier, in Des Koines, Iowa, who it was believed would escape the gallows, was attended to by Judge Ly nch and a porAy of masked men, on the night of the lith. It was a very quiet affair, the prison officials say. Howard was taken from i his cell and strung up to n lamp-post on the oorner of the street. The gene? ral opinion is, "served him right." THE GREAT~S0U THERN finnnn nnlTfli What is Fame??Tho Freu oh jour? nals are disputing over the proposi? tion to plaoe the statue of Mirabeaa in the Oonrt of Justice of Aix. The Re? publicans insist that this honor is due to the eloquent champion of the revo? lution. The Conservatives argue that bb Mirabeaa had been impriaoned in this town for heinous offences, and condemned to imprisonment in the very court where it is now proposed to ereot his statue, the honor would bo a bad preoedent. Among the elatues|nl ready erected is that of Portelia, who, in passing judgment on Mirabenu, | Stigmatized him as "a bad son uudj a | bad citizen," It would be a singular illustration of the irony of fame if tho ! prisoner who was thero condemned j and the judge who condemned bim should stand side by side in marble or bronze, FURCIIGOTTT, BENEDICT & CO,, 275 King Street, Charleston, S.

Sept4t6mo A great many people wonder how members of Congress grow rich ho ra? pidly on a salary of $5,000 a year. An incident occurred in tho llou:io of Representatives the other day which 1 will throw bo run light on the subject, j Mr. Beck introduced n hill lo puuisb , members of the Senate aud House w'no j engage as counsel iu suits against tbo Government. It was opposed by Gen. Butler, but was passed. What Latlor's i interest in such matters has been may be judged from the official record of the Supreme Court of tho District of Columbia in the Farragut prize cusea. This shows that he prolited to tho ex? tent of 837,221 by the bill for paying them. This item solves the mystery. Nos. 3 Broad Street and 109 East Bay Street, CHARLESTON, S.
