After the confession tiad been made, two hundred determined men collected at the place where the prisoner was confined, and it was plain that t- ey intended to take the law in their own hands, and mete out to this inhuman wretch the speedy justice so richly deserved. The prisoner having finished his confession, was bound band and foot and taken to a black walnut tree, the place selected for his execuion. Arrived at tbe fatal spot Tanzey was cool and collected, perfectly unmoved, proving himself to be a man of iron nerve and one of the most hardened villians the world had ever known.

A rope was then placed around his neck, one end thrown over a limb of the tree, when Tanzey was told his time had come, and that ten minutes would be given him to make any last request. He replied that he would like to lire until he could see bis wife, and when told his request could not be granted he said he had no further remarks to make. LIUKCEKD INTO ETERNITY.

We hear it intimated that when the x-President reaches the Mississippi shore he will probably encounter the redoubt-1 able Governor Isham G. Harris, who thirsts i for the ex-President "hair." Uhe "boys 'j had better keep their eves skinned or A. will retrace the war path from the Western District with more than one scalp dangling from bis belt. It will be seen from the following rather enthusiastic welcome of the lirownsville states, ot the 24tu, that "Aimy" is expected in Brownsville shortly. The States sajs: Ahdbew Jobnsox.

This distinguished statesman having avowed1 an' intention to visit Memphis at an early day, many ot our citizens were desirous of hearing him speak at this place. We are glad to be able to state that be will address tbe people or Brownsville before long, probably before or after his visit to Memphis, The following dispatch explains itself: Nashville. August 13, 1872; To Willo Haywood, Editor States: 1 will speak iu brownsville, cut regret that I cannot fix the lime now. Andrew Johxsos, The ex-President will meet with a warm reception from every class of our citizens. His great talents and devoted adherence to the principles of the Constitution, and his wonderful ability as a public speaker will draw an immense crowd.

We continue this morning in another col umn our extracts irom the btale press, to date, upon the prospective canvass. We also give a few press opinions from journals outside of the State, which will be found in another column. The can 883 is attracting so much notice hndso absorbing the attention of politicians and tbe public thut the book-dealer3 arc ransacking their stocks for Biographies of Andrew Johnson" to satisfy tbe demand for Johnson literature. Messrs. W.

T. Berr Co. yesterday, Uid on our table Frank Moore's "Life and Speeches of Andrew Johnson." This is a handsome volume of some 500 pages with a steel vignette portrait of the ex-President. It contains Moore bio graphical introduction: Governor Johnson's famous speecn me coiorea men oi this citv during the war: his anti-seces sion speech in the Senate in 18S0, aod a number ot other tqually tamous speeches which will be mighty interesting reading just about this time. As Berry Co, have only a couple ot dozen lett, tney are iiKeiy to be monopolized by the twodozen ''chiefs," who will "go for" Andy like a due alter a June4mg before frost.

The people or bumoer Uoonty are amn a flutter of expectation relative to the speech ot ex-President Johnson to be delivered at Gallatin, at- 11 o'clock Saturday morning. It is the theme ot discussion tbrouguout tne county, and particularly at Gallatin. You have only to meet a kuoi of men to discover that the political issues of the day, and more especially those concerning Johnson and Cheatham, are the topics of their conversa tion. It is the talk on the street corners, saloons, hotelB, stores, at the depot and every other place where men are wont to meet each other. The questions involved excite more interest from the fact that it is claimed that the voters of the county are equally divided between Messrs.

Johnson and Cheatham. It is asserted that they will call forth more agitation during the canvass than was ever before experienced. The little rumpus kicked up in the recent Uounty Convention; aogured an exciting campaign, provided Mr. Johnson was an nounced as an independent candidate. It contained discordant elements which, for a time, threatened general demoralization aud total annihilation.

The Cheatham men are as determined in thfir support of their candidate as the John son men of theirs, both will open their batteries and' face the music. They will fight it through to the end, possibly with much bitterness and asperity of feeling, and much invective. Another bit of new3 which is engrossing their attention, is tbe statement that Colonel J. J. Turner, a firm friend and supporter pf General Cheatham, for whom be contem plates battling during the ranvass, is to respond to Mr.

Johnson's' speech. This im pression is verified by the fact that sev ral bumner Uountv gentlemen, tnenas to uol, Turner and General Cheatham, employed their time here yesterday in looking over the files' of papers and generally investigating the record of Mr. Johnson, made both before and after the war. We understand that his record as military Governor was especially sought after. It is said by tbe knowing ones that all the little incidents connected with his career were compiled lor and are to be used by Colonel Turner in his reply to Mr.

Johnson, next Saturday; The Chcat-ham'men appear to think that Col. Turner will "wax" the ex-President, and, on the other hard, it is intimated that the latter will make the fur fly in his response to Col. Turner. A gentleman informed us yesterday, that while in conversation with Mr. Johnson, ihe other day, he asked htm what he (Johnson) thought of having Gov.

Isham G. flams pitted against him on the stump. "Well, responded Mr. Johnson, "I would not desire a better subject tor dissection." Bed IIolI" A very fat old gentleman who evidently did not enjoy the heat, went through Cherry Street yesterday, giving emptiaiic expres sion to this exclamation. He was attired in linen, every shred of which was wet with perspiration, which also, great bead! fairly rolled down his physiognomy and trickled into his boots.

He had taken a "coolins" drink, but onlv to make his aaatomv hotter and to increase his distress. It was in vain that he wiped his face with a handkerchief, which had the appearance of having been wrung out a dozen times; it was io vain that be wafted his palm-leaf to produce an artificial draft of air, threw away his collar, unbuttoned his shirt front and bared his brawny breast, and made for a cool resort. He was perplexed and the ex pression which darkened his countenance betokened untold sufFerintrs which, with the least excuse, might find vent in blasphemies hotter than the weather. He said he could find no shade and could feel nothing but the vertical rays ot tne sail concentrating and descending upon his devoted head. He was "red hot "If there ever was a time," said he, "when Beccher, add I want to be distinctly understood, my boiling brethren, that I am the champion of that good man, who knows no guile and has a mind unlike me, equal to all emenrencies if there ever was a time (slapping one of his auditors upon the and making a grimmace) when he could have delivered his famous sermon on tha RnhiecL lIt is hot' it is At the close orthis remark the "red-hot" old gentleman panted for breath, took another drink at a neighboring saloon, hired an ex press, borrowed a second-band umbrella ana started for the woods, in which he swore he would remain until the advent ot winter.

Important to Tobacco Men. The following Associated Press -dispatch was received yesterday: New York, August 28. It is stated that Attorney -General Williams decides against the ruling of the Internal Revenue Commissioner on tbe question as to whether tobaoco, bonded between June 5 and July 1, shall pay thirty-two cents or twenty cents per pound. The latter tax is decided legal by the Attorney-General. New Cars.

It is said that Mr.

Johnson's candidacy "will make tbe canvass excitirg.and invites oppo sition to all convention nominees." It, is furthermore predicted, and probably with good reason, that Mr. Johnson will be elected over any andall convention nominees. it is mis repudiation of tbe infamously- corrupt convention system, which, in Mr. Johnson's candidacy, nnd also many other significant ajrentaV Saltjlful and encouragluff slgti.

all tbo "convention candidates" both Granite and jGreeleyite were defeated, and the inde pendent Democratic candidates were elected, i3 another of the significant signs which tend to strengthen a hope for better days. Ut ail tbe instrumentalities of political corruption, there is none so effective in the worK anu at tne same jime so thoroughly tyrannical, as the convention As the New York World truly says, it is "a system which has done more than all other causes combined, to corrupt and de moralize political life in this country." It is 'a plausible contrivance for-depriving the people ora seal influence and reducing thom'to i cfioiccnetween two rival candidates selected by the office-holding or office-seeking interest, without regard to their wishes. "Nothing could be more cunningly contrived for transferring political power from the people, who live by their own industry, to tbe cormorants who seek to live on the public taxes." "It is the most g'gantic fraud on the people, ever invented and pepctuatetTby the tribeon demagogues. Its whole history condemns iu" "It i3 time that the whole fraudulent system were broken down." The spectacle of a widely circulated public journal uttering Such words of earnest con-demualiotL of "gigantic fraud on the people ever invented by the tribe of demagogues," and declaring that so fraudu-' lent a system ought to be broken down, yet, fustead of daring to strike, a blow to breat it down, laboring with ttllitimight to maintain and perpetuate the gigantic fraud, ia indeed a deplorable one. In-North Carolina, five thousand honest Dcmpcmia' repudiated a' pctrine and "pronounced' their condemnation of that most gigantic fraud upon the copIe, the convention system and its corrupt trading with the worst enemies of democracy, by staying away from the polls.

In West Virginia, a vastly greater number of Democrats did the same by giving their votes to independent candidates, electing them over both seta of "convention candidates." Tbe candidacy of 3Ir. Johnson means that there is a large body of Democrats in Tennessee who intend to do likewise; who, in the forcible words of Mr. G. B. Harris, mean to "thrash this monster tyranny," tbe convention system, which is tbe pareut of all the gigantic frauds upon the people that prevail.

John Griffey, who had been attending ft cmp-meeting few miles below Mary me, was returning to nu norae near Clearmoot. When a. few miles distent from the above hataed'ptace, he came upon a man with a two-horse covered wagon, wagon having mired in his attempt, to cross a slough in tberoad. The man was slightly intoxicated, and appeared greatly alarmed and excited upon the near approach of Mr. Griffey.

Mr. Griffey immediately tendered his services to the stranger and offered to aid him in extricating bis wagon from the slough. He discovered on ncatr approach to the wagon a most disagneable' smell and asked the man "What smelt to." The stranger replied that it was a "quarter of beef which was tainted and nearly Bpoiled," and when asked why he net throw the beef out and thus his load, be replied that "they," his horses, "could easily pull it out." He strangely declined the proffered aid of Ir. Griffey, and commenced to urge his horses to their utmost Btrength. Griffey followed the wagou to Clearmont, and there with others insisted on making an examination of its contents, which they did.

HAIL lIAlLl No pen can do. justice to the fearful sight that now meet their gaze, imagine tneir feelings, reader, it you tun, while we draw picturf- as they saw it. Within tbe wagon lay nve numan ocings cuvurL-u wiui blankets. They were piled promiscuously together and were partly decomposed, presenting one of the most fearful sights that ever tbe eye of mortal beheld. The victims were two men, one woman and two small children, all with their throats cut from ear to ear.

They were prohably sleeping in the wagon at the time of the mur der, lor they were louna in ineir nigni clothes. The body of one of the meu was cut uearly in two, and bore evidence of having made a hard struggle for life. Tbo cood citizens of Clearmont were not slow to act. Many advised tue immediate lynching of this living example ot total depravity, and though all agreed that enough was already known to condemn him to a Speedy nnd righteous death, he was spared, that he might tell ho were hU accomplices, if any, in this fearful tragedy Upon beinir asked for particulars as to what" hrf knew of the crime, he. lirst frfjjfued ignorahca of having the dead bodies in his Being told that unless be revealed the truth be would up at once, lie remained silent and refused confess.

The citizens then'proceeded to" take matters in their own haods, and were about to carry the threat of lynching- him into execution, but the wretch by thi3 time become alarmed and began to pray, thinking to beg off. Twice tie was strung up, and not until he was let down the second time did he make tbe following statement which I copy from the Nodaway Democrat published this day: TUB FIEND'S CONFESSION. He said his name waa Odbnrn; that his wife and wife's mother lived near Mt. Aver, iu Binggold Connty, Iowa. He said his mother-iUj-law's name was Delilah Ayers, and that he had a boy five ears old.

He said the name of the murdered family is Ormes; that they went to Kansa3 from Minnesota last spring; that the name of the other murdered man was Daniel D'ckersoa; that be had accompanied tbe murdered family from Minnesota to Kansas, and was a cousin to Mrs. 0rme3. He said that Joseph Williams murdered the party on last Thursday night, near Holton, Kansas, and hired him, for a consideration of $700, to conceal tbe bodies. He stated that Williams followed the Ormes family from Minnesota for the pur pose of murdering them; that the cause of his hate was an old love alfair between himself and Mrs. Ormes; that Williams had sworn to slay Ormes, his wife and their pos-teritv: that when the parties were murdered they bad the wagon in which the bodies were found, two yoke ot oxen, and some loose cattle, ne said he had traded the cattle for a span of horses, aud sold the loose cattle jnst before he arrived at Clearmont, and that be bad bid the $700 in a sack.

ON TUB BACK TRACE. After haviu" made the above confession he was given over into the bands of some of the leading citizens. of the Nodaway valley, to take charge of him. They then im mediate started a courier for Maryvilh; to re port the matter to Sheriff Wray. They also sent hack on the road he had just traversed.

and found that he h3d told the truth regard ing the sale of tie cattle: but the monev could not be found. Sheriff Wray left for Kansas at once, to nave vtiiuama, unburns proteased accomplice, arrested. Tbe parties sent on the back track to sec if any ilue could be-found to the murder, after inquiry and thorough search learned that the deed had beeu committed in Noda-: way County, one-and-a-half miles northeast of Burr Oak. Grove, and some sixteen miles west ot Alary vine. TRUTH WILL OUT'.

The finger of Providence seemed to have guided them to the exact spot where the fearful crime had been perpetrated. The ground was covered with blood, and they found the false teeth of the murdered woman. Suflieient evider.ee had now been collected to prove the previous statement of the prisoner false, and leave little doubt that he was the murderer. They then hastened back to whec the prisoner was confined and confronted him with, the damning facts. AVheo assured that he had not loog to live, be said, with the most perfect indifference.

"Proceed, gentlemen, you cannot hang a man hutonce." He was then asked to reveal the'particulars of his enme, when he made, in substance, tbe following confession ANOTHER CONFESSION. He gave his name as Tanzey, and said it was not Osburn as stated in bi3 first confession. That his home was at Mount Ayer, Iowa, where he bad a wife and one child. I he parties he had murdered were nve number. A man with his wife and two children and another man who was unmarried.

He said they were traveling in a lum ber wagon, and that they were returning from Kansas to their borne in Minnesota. He met them first last Thursday, tbe 15th. Having no money and traveling in the same direction, they kindly as feed him to join them, which he did. The wagon being large. they all, six in number, slept in iu The married man, nis wite and two children.

slept on a platform raised on the front of the wagon, while the remaining two slept in the Dottom ot tne bed neiow. Lait Sunday night they camped within half a mile of a house near BurrOk Grove. At th-s place the wreti-h conceived the plan of murdering them and making vraj with their horses and wagon, their catth-(-hree or tour number), and whatever money they might have in their possession. Alter having murdered them, he intended to secrete them iu tbe brush on Clear Cieck, near by. THE BLEEP OP DHATH.

That Sunday night, little dreaming of the black-hearted wretch they had taken undor their shelter and the awful fate that awaited them, they lay down in the wagon for the night, and alt save the murderer were sound asleep. Satisfying himself that all were sleeping, be took a loaded pistol, which lay in the wagon, and, placing it at the head of the man who was el' eping by his side, fired. He instantly killed him. The married man, being aroused by the report of ihe pistol, rose up, and, thinking Tanzey had fired at a strange dog which had been annoying them during the night by barking, said, "Good! good!" The assassin immediately turned and shot him, and then jumped from the wagon to the ground. The woi.nded man attempted to follow him, when seized an ax and dispatched him at once.

The agonized wife of tbe murdered man was now. running around the wagon, uttering fearful cries; and, fearing that she would alarm the people at tbe farm-house near by, he also killed her with an ax or dub, just which' he does not remember. The two infant babes, aged three and fifteen months, now alone remained living, and Un tne oi lost nuni uie corner biuuu fof St. Columbia Churchy Edgefield, was laid iwith appropriate ceremonies. Upon that occasion Father Meagher said that "on that day there was no church there, but within a jyear trom that time a grand edifice would yaise Its Spires' beaVeaward." Father Ueagber left the city on the following day opoii a lecturing tour' by whi he boped to obtain such aid as would be suf-jncient to build the church.

How far be suc ceeded in the undertaking is well known. At any rate, his prophesy has almost been fulfilled. The foundations of St. Colombia pre being pushed rapidly forward, and soon grand edifice will raise its spires heavenward." The site of St. Columbia is on the south bide oi Main Street.

between Tulip and Min-nick'Streets. Cruciform in shape, the church iwill be constructed, after the Gothic style, pf brick and cut stone. I The main will be of stone, flanked by columns above which there will be deeply cut mouldings and projecting supporting wood mouldings. The Wch gab will nape a carved stone cross at IIS Bpe Uic unm uuuv niuuuw riu foe capped with moulded stone, supported by jrbrbels, and' the front cornice of stone will have a carved cross of the' same material, Borne twelve feet in length, at the ridge.

Maggie Coleman won the first two and Nipper the next three heats.

The inclemency of the weather last evening, prevented a great many from attending the Children's Grand Jubilee at the Exposition building, and in consequence It has been determined to give a performance to-night and to-morrow night. The singing pt these twelve hundred little-choristers ts too enjoyable for any one to miss it. The programme has been selected with great care and taste, and the various songs as rendered are very good. Every one who attended on the first night is speaking in high terms of the entertainment, and we have no doubt but that the attendance to-night wiU be liberal. Tbe programme for the night is entirely different'from that followed on Tuesday night.

A Greeley and Bronn Efft- The traditional campaign egg ha3 been heard from. It was lelt at our office yesterday, by John Rains, colored, who says he got it out of his hen's nest, yesterday. The words "Greeley and Brown" and "Constitution" are faintly visible on the shell of the egg.

Tbcso mysterious characters have doubtless worked upon the superstitions of our colored friend. The letters, however, bear the suspicious evidence of having been neatly etched with a graver by some way, with no very reverent fear of the Constitution. No doubt some carping Grantite will be prepared to insist that this is a "bad egg," and therefore appropriately a Greeley egg. Or perhaps partisan malice may prompt him to suggest that the rooster had as indirect a relationship to this egg as to the Libcal ticket. So far as the hen is concerned, however, it bas nerved the purpose to "point a name and adorn a tale." Many stalwart hands then took hold of rope, drawing him clear trom tne ground, and just as dark waa coming on last Thursday evening, tbe soul of Tanzey the murderer was launched into eternity, there to appear before his God with his hands yet red with the blood of his five victims.

He died almost without a struggle, and buried beneath the very tree on which he was hung. Additional Markets by Telegraph. Cotton markets. Yobk, August 28. Cotton market lower, with fales to-day of 2,000 bales, middling uplands 2c.
