ABOLITION OF CAPITAL PUNISHMENT On Tuesday evening, a crowded and respectable meet ing was held in the Athenaeum, Manchester, to hear an address from Mr. A. H. Dymond, the secretary of the Society for the Abolition of Capital Punishments, and to adopt resolutions in support of the society's efforts. Mr. Massey occupied the chair. The Chairman read letters of apology from Mr. James Heywood, M.P., regretting that in consequence of a pre vious engagement he could not he present, and stating that his votes in the House of Commons were uniformly given in favour of the abolition of the punishment of death ; from Mr. George Hadfield, M.P., who said he could not accept the invitation to attend, as he had to be in London; and from a gentleman on behalf of Mr. J. Cheetham, M.P. The chairman concluded by calling on Mr. Robert Rumney to move the first resolution, which he did as follows :—" That this meeting, being convinced that capital punishments are opposed to sound policy, and injurious to public morality, pledges itself to use every means to effect their abolition.' , In moving this resolution Mr. Rumney argued that public executions had a demoralising effect on that class of society from which, for the most part, criminals sprung, and concluded by saying, that if a proper agitation were got up, they would see an end put to the present system, which would be all the better for public morality and for criminals them selves. Mr. P. B. Allen seconded the resolution. Mr. Dymond then came forward to support the resolu tion. He addressed himself, in the first place, to those who hold that punishments, and especially capital pun ishments, are enjoined, are arbitrarily enjoined, by the Gospel and the Old Testament, and who contend that the words of God have laid upon us a certain duty, which, nolens volens, we ought to carry out. They had only to revert to the history of our own land, and more especially of Scotland, 150 years ago, and they would find that the text " I suffer not the witch to live," was used as a justification for burning and torturing miserable old women by so eminent a man as Sir Matthew Hale. The 9th chapter and 6th verse of Genesis—" Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed "—was the one relied on for capital punishments ; but the correct ness of this rendering of the passage had been again and again called in question. Many of the most ancient ver sions did not contain the words "by man." In the Septua gint, that version which our Lord himself read, those words did not occur ; and, if they came to later times, they would not find it in Wycliffo's version. A writer in the Eclectic Review called to mind that the words did not appear in any version until the fifth century. There was this peculiarity in that particular verse, that, whilst the verses which pre cede it, and succeed it, are in the first person, this passage was in the third person. The Rev. Mr. Eaton and the Rev. Henry Christmas, clergymen of the Church of England, had declared this passage to be nothing more, at the most, than a prophetic denunciation against the shedding of blood, whilst the former said he believed it to be nothing mote than an inspired commentary of Moses. refore the Mosaic dispensation there was the Adamic dispensation, and under it Cain was not punished with death. The Mosaic dispensa tion was purely one of atonement, and was typioal of the new law. If they came to the earlier ages of the church, they would find that Christian prefects resigned their offices rather than be concerned in putting a fellow-creature to death. In the third or fourth century, they found a Christian bishop, St. Austin, he believed, condemning the practice. Some of his presbyters had been treacherously murdered by persons who differed from them in religious belief. This was an offence of a grave character, not only as a political Grime, but as one against the church. They might sup pose that St. Austin, if he revered that text, would have claimed that the murderers should be put to death, but what were his words to the judge ? These 1—" I know that the state has power in these things. I know the magistrate is not to bear the sword in vain ; but I, that am a Christian, beseech you, the judge, and I that am a bishop command you, the Christian, not that these men should be put to death, but that the fame of the church, and the character of Christianity, should not be stained by the sacrifice of these men's blood." It was a practical question for the people of Liverpool, who had the awful abomination of public executions inflicted on them. The lecturer, at considerable length, then proceeded to deal with the question in its various aspects as a measure of retributive justice, and as a deterrent to, crime. A gentleinan at the end of the room, whose name did not transpire, spoke in favour of having executions in private. He contended that all the demoralising influences proceeded from gratifying the morbid desire of the criminal for popu larity, Another gentleman said that they had heard of such things as judicial murders, and they would be as much judi cial murders in private as in public. The man hanged was as much murdered as his victim, (No, no ; that's all fudge.) Yes : the witnesses who gave evidence, the jurors who gave the verdict, the judge who pronounced, and Jack Ketch who put the rope round Lie neck of the criminal, were all guilty of murder. (No, no ; and hissv.) M. Petzler said that as regarded Russia, capital punish ments were introduced by the late Emperor Nicholas, and that all despotic governments were in favour of capital punishments. ➢tr. Ambrose spoke at some length to show that it was our duty to imitate the Almighty as much as we could, and that when he did not hesitate to indict the most awful of all punishments, we were justified in inflicting, where necessary, the punishment of death. Mr. Dymond briefly replied, after which the resolution was put, and declared to be all but unanimously carried. Air. Alderman Harvey moved a resolution in favour of a petition to parliament, from Manchester, in favour of the abolition of capital punishment. Mr. Councillor tildes seconded the motion, which was supported by, Mr. Thomas Wright, the prison philanthropist. He said he would abolish capital punishment for all who commitred murders through passion or jealousy, but not for those who committed murders for plunder. The resolution wns unanimously carried. Votes of thanks to the lecturer and chairman were passed, and the proceedings terminated. A private of the 17th Lancers, named George 'Tickling, cut nis throat at the cavalry barracks, Preston. Some love affair was the cause. Orders have been receive at Pembroke-yard from the Admiralty to prepare a set of drawings of the Victor Emmanuel (late Brunswick) for his Majesty the King of Sardinia. THE CONVICT BANIEERS.—It is said that Sir John Dean Paul and Mr. Strahan, the convict bankers, are busily employed in prison, the former tailoring, and the latter at c hairmaking. A sergeant of the 46th regiment, says the Journal de Constantinople, who had been engaged in a skirmish with the Russians on the night of the 27th ult., found a sum of about 12,0001 on the body of a Russian officer. He sent this money to the marshal, in order that it might be restored to the family of the deceased. FINANCES OF VICTORIA.—The revenue returns of Vic toria for the year ending Sept. 30 have been published. It appears that the total receipts from all sources were 3,384,9071. Deducting from this one-half the land fund, say 470,0001, there would remain 2,914,0001 available for the ordinary expenditure of 1855 For the year 1854 the amount was only 2,640,000/. QUEER DEcx.itom.—At Castle Eden, the other day, in an assault case, the Rev. Mr. Park, in announcing the decision (2f the bench, addressed the defendant in the fol lowing manner:—As the assault is not proved we will dismiss the case on your paying the costs, but if you refuse to do so, then we shall fine :you for the assault ! Darlington and Stockton Times. HOW IS THE PROVOST'S HOUSE TO BE KNOWN ? The Edinburgh Town Council, at their last meeting, resolved, that in all time coming, an ornamental lamp should be placed at the entrance of the house of the chief magistrate, and that such lamp was to remain there only so long as he was provost, and that, whenever he laid down the reins of office his light was to be put out, and the lamp removed to the house of his successor. ARMY SURGEON'S PAY.—A warrant has been issued from the Director-General's office, directing that the pay of all acting assistant surgeons be raised from lOs a day to lls 6d; and that the 401 granted by a former war rant to such officers at the expiration of two years be cancelled. Also, that they will be entitled to receive the additional pay if they do not pass a portion of such period on foreign service, as defined in the first warrant. VENERABLE JESTER.—On the 3rd, died at Constantino ple a certain mussahib (Imperial buffoon), named Said Efendi, at , the age of 121 years and 7 months. He had served four Sultans as jester, and notwithstanding his advanced age, the venerable old gentleman was often called up by the present Sovereign, and ordered to say witty things and to perform antics, which latter he gene rally did with remarkable agility. A WOMAN or MAnK.—We have seen assign'd, recently, several reasons why, when persons could write, they never theless "made their marks." Here is another, which is appropriately given in the Ladies' Own Journal :—Upon the conclusion of a marriage in a village church, the bridegroom signed the register with " his mark.' The pretty young bride did the same; and then, turning to a lady who had known her as the best scholar in the school, whispered to her, while tears of honest love and admira tion stood in her bright eyes, "He's a dear fellow, Miss, but cannot write yet. He s going to learn of me, and I would not shame him for the world.' THE LATE SIR W. MoLtswouTri. Lady Moleswortb, replying to an address of condolence from the tenantry of the late Sir William, observes, " Be assured that if any thing can alleviate the affliction of a bereaved wife, it will be found in such a tribute to the memory of her hus band. My feeble pen can but inadequately express all I feel—all that is due to him who is taken from us. But another, who from his great talents and noble nature, is no mean judge, ha s borne testimony to his sterling worth; Lord Palmerston, in the letter he addressed to me on th e occasion of the sad blow befalling me, madei use of the following words Fez singleness .of mind, honesty o f purpose, clearness of judgment, faithfulness of condu c t, courage in difficulties, and equanimity in success, he never was surpassed ; and deeply must any nation lament th e p rema ture loss of such a man ; for: voids so created are not easily replaced. Such words from such a man prove how justly the kind friends I address have formed their opinion."

FINLAY.—The plaintiff was proprietor of the Alersey Hotel, and the action was brought to r e ceive £3 17s. The defendant admitted £1 2s. for sundries supplied by plaintiff.
