" THE DAY'S NEWS.
" The wages of sin is death," is the declaration
of an-inspired writers, Never was its truth more
fearfully realised than it has been.in the course of
the week now closed. Your unfortunate but- in-
human monsters haVe been fOtind- guilty of the
dreadful crime of murder; and- sentenced to atone
upon the scaffold for their dark and bloody deeds.'
To dlty'S- -viper ,contains- reports of the trial of:
William
_Jackson at Chester, for the murder of'
his t0.7(-- children. on • the'. 27th of ..September
last ; and. also, -thaA
,of ,Guiseppea- Lagava, and
Giavanno Burbalano,at,Wincheater:Tor-pira3y and
and murder on the -high 'seas; all three were sen-,
tenced to die, and these; along with M coley, con-,
Adeted on .Friday: tantiight. at 'the. Old Bailey
London, make up four capital convictions in one;
tv_eelt; Caleraft "is himself again," for despite the
agitation now being carried on, he, has to do no pre-0
amount of legal strangulation during the'next-tbrel
weeks, The evidence en Jackson's trial depicts a
fearfully,callous and unfeeling mon s_ter. He heard hi S
doom witheOmparative indifference, and 'although
Mr. Baron .Aldersoiir:adlfressecl him in language
of the most touching character, whilst exhorting
him to repentance :ere-he--trod the scaff.)ld, ha
stood before his earthly ludge, undaunted and uut
dismayed. Let us hope that,,ere the .fatal hour
arrives, his apparent indifference will give war td
Godlygorrow-for-the- wicked-deed-a•-of_a miscip.on
tt
life ; and that,whenc.alleduponto surrender himself
to the "finisher Of the laW,"' 'and atone to society
for his horrid .crime,, he will be in a fit state
of mind to appear -beforei the Judge of all
mtnkind, having obtained a remission of hig
sins, and a title to hapPinesS hereafter.
In connection with, these cases,,we may observt
that the murderer -Of Mr. Little is still at largek
notwithstanding -the many rumours which hav4
been afloat during the last few days. Mysterious;
indeed, are the circ,-.-‘'sStances connected with this
horrid tragedy: Day after -day-some fresh revala-
tions are made, but no real clue to the identical
person who committed the-murder. Magistrates
and. detectives 'are - at sea upon this point,
or, if they 'do -krow - who the culprit .isr, they are
somewhat, 'tardy is capturing him. so that justice
mays take its course. Viewing the. matter in its
phases,''We are constrained to belieye that the
foul assassin of Mr. Little has either contrived to
flee the country', -or after a short reflection of the
enormity of .his- offence, and the certainty of ulti-
mate detection, has coward like committed suicide,
and thus denriVed the' gallows of its prey. The

regret to say that

the Archdeacon- for liberty to ge al

presented itself before the court, Sir John, Dodson

Under :these circumstances, angther, legal move
must.be made in this unseemly ecclesiastical strife,
a strife that is without doubt damaging'the Church
more and more, estranging its members from her
communion, and adding numbers of pious and
