_ .

Baron BRAMWELL has pinned the ruffians by I
the throat as vigorously and effectually as ever
NICHOLAS NICICLEBY did the Yorkshire School-
master. The learned Judge has punished some of
the Garotters literally within an inch of their lives.
Penal Servitude is the one only kind of expiatory
infliction his lordship could apply—but he applies
it vigorously—rigorously " Penal Servitude "
he condemns one ruffianto for ten years—another for
twenty—another for Life The force of determina-
tion could not go further than that, it may be al-
lowed, under the circumstances. But it is the
manner in which this was done by Baron BRAM-
WELL that excites at once our gratitude and our
admiration. Addressing the first of the Garotters
brought up before him yesterday to receive his sen-
tence, the learned Judge said forcibly that, " As to
ANDERSON, it appeared that he was convicted of a
robbery with violence in 1859, and sentenced to
three years' penal servitude, and he had also suf-
fered fourteen other convictions, so that the present
was his sixteenth conviction. He was sure, there-
fore, that with regard to him it was unnecessary to
make any observations to justify the sentence that
he was about to pronounce upon him. As to
any chance of his being reformed, he feared that
it was utterly hopeless ; he did not believe there
were any of the materials of reformation in him, and
that he was utterly destitute of morality, shame,
religion, or pity, and that if he were let loose he
would do what any savage animal would do—
namely, prey upon his fellows." Consequently,
taking all these things into consideration, he pro-
nounced upon ANDERSON the extremest penalty at
his (Baron BRAMWELL'S) disposal—viz, the pun-
ishment of penal servitude for the remainder of the
ruffian's natural existence.

Certainty, a list of punishments—that—calcu

here in England, Poverty—the pauper dress worn
by the inmates of our workhouses. There was a
tl.inuch of refined irony, now and then, in the man- ,
in which Baron BRAMWELL awarded some of j
the lesser punishments—lesser, that is, than the
