We are permitted to lay before the pub
lie the following petition for the pardon OF
ALANsoN WoRK, one of the convicts in the
Penitentary, and the reply of the Gov
ERNoR thereto. We trust that its publca-
ton may be seen and read by every AboH-
Zionist, and that its effect may be to arrest
them in their wicked work. 1t will, at least,
satisfy them that they cannot invade the
rights of our citizens with mpunity:-
To his EGcellency THOMAS REYNQLDs, Cor
ernor Of Missouri.
The undersigned. Pastor and Members Of
the South Congregational Church in Mid
dieton. Conn, would present the following
to your Excel ency, in relation to the case
of Mr.. Alanson Work, who has recently
been sentenced to twelve years imprison-
ment in the Penitentary of the State over
which your Excelency presides.
We earnestly pray that in the exercise Of
clemency you will interfere with the Exc
cutive authority vested in your hands, and
remove the sentence from our brother, and
and restore him to his liberty and his de-.
pendent family.
A s christians, we feel it our duty to pre-
sent this petition to your Excelency; for
Mr.. Work was once a member of our
Church, and greatly beloved by us all, and
we do this the more confidently, as we are
happy to learn that your ExceIIency regards
with favor and interest the religion of HIM
who taught the duty of mercy and forgive
ness.
Mr.. Work was connected to our Church
by public profession Of religion, in May,
1884, and adorned his profession by godIy,
consistent life. He left us, for the West,
with his little family. with our earnest prayer
that the God Of the Covenant would be
with him.
We regret that, 10y mistaken sense Of
dut..', he was betrayed into the act for
which he has been imprisoned, and we ear
nestly pray that your Excel.ency will for
give the offence and show mercy, and let
our beloved brother be restored to his needy
family, and that his little ones may not be
left for twelve long years, without the in
structons and guidance Of a father. And
we doubt not, that by this act of clemency,
your Excellency will receive the smiles Of
kind Heaven, as well as the gratitude and
love of your humble petitioners, and the
welcome benedction of Him who said, Sin
asmuch as We have done it unot one Of the
least of these, my brethren, We have done it
unto me-"

City Of Jefferson, Jan 81, 1912.
GENTLEMEN:
Your petition for the pardon of Alan
son Work, a convict in the Penitentiary OF
this State, has been received and consid-
cred, with disposition to conform my ac-
ton to the dictates of justice, and the proper
discharge Of my duty.
1t Is difficult, il not impossible, to define
with satisfactory precision, the cases in
which the executive cIemency should be
exercised, and those in which it should be
withheld, but have never considered the
constitutional power TO grant pGrdons as
intended to invest the Executive with an
! arbitrary authority, to be exercised at his
mere will aud pleasure without regard to
the dictates Of justice or the public good.
| Such construction would be incOnss ent
with the nature and genius Of our instltu
lions.
1t IS tue, the power 10 grant pardons is
given without limitation or restrictions, eX-
| :ept IN cases of impeachment. bat this art
Saa from the very nature and object OF the
power Ii human vision could devise a
perfect system Of taWs-a system that
| would ALWAYS ensure the administration OF
justice In a spirit of mercy-then the par
doning power would not only be useless,
but its exercise incompatible with justice.
1t is from the very imposslbilitv Of framing
such code Of laws, arising from the impel
lection Of every human invention that the
necessity arises OF providing a means to
prevent the laws from becoming instru-
ments Of injustice and oppression.
Cases may undoubtedly arise, in which
a strict enforcement OF the laws, though
consistent with human justice, may not be
in accordance with sound policy. and in
such cases the Executive c,emency may
properly DO nterposed. But the exercise
OF this power, from mere motives OF COM
passion, in the breas. Of the Executive, or
mistaken spirit OF clemency, without a
due regard to the faithful administration OF
the laws, would not only pervert the OBJ
ect Of the power, but would be productive
of the'very mischief which it was intended
to prevent. The certainty that punish
ment will follow the commission OF crime,
is one Of the strongest check upon vice. but
this restraint would be feeble indeed, if the
pardoning power was habituaIly exercised
from such motives as these.
Even in our mother country, where the
pardoning power is conceded to be nsepa-
rably incident to the pterogatlve OF the
crown, and, by the theory OF whose laws,
the King, sis supposed to be the power in
jured by every lntraction OF the public
rights" il is considered as entrusted to HIM
''upon special confidence that he will
spare those only, whose case, could IL have
been ioreseen, the law itself may be pre-
sumed willing to have excepted ont OF It's
general rules, which the wisdom of man
cannot make so perfect as to suit every par,

From the In dex,
e N G. l. A N d


There's blood upon thy jewelled sword,
And shame upon thy crown;
Pollution marks thy beted lord,
And sin thy churchman's gown;
And from the islands Of the sea,
The groan Of millions curses thee
Thy masses..in their bowels pine,
Or curse thee while they toll;
Thy mobiles, of illustrious line,
Like vampires, suck thy soil;
And now proud ''mistress OF the sea-"
The meanest wretch gives food to thee!
A queen upon throne Of gold
Aparlament Of drones-
A nations voice, that's bought and sold
While every cottage groans;
An army Ger the wide world spread,
To gather garments from the dead
A bird Of prey!--with bloody beak,
Now feeding on its young,
Now going forth with hellish shrek.
The bleeding tribes among,
Proud scavenger Of land and sea,
Avengng heaven has noted thee!
Disturber of Creations peace!-
Destroyer Of the laws!-
When will thy march of murder cease!
When will your legions pause?
When mal,clad men shall make your grave,
BY Javan's towers and Erie's wave.
But bark! cry Of vengeance rings
From Indus and the Nile;
1t thunders death to Europes kings,
And starts in Abion's Isle,
That power whose flag is never Gurled-
Whose morning drum beats round the world.
Proud boaster know that deeds Of blood
or broken faith and shame
Have made thee mistress of the flood,
And magni6ed thy name:
And think how Rome, the mighty, sank,
When rol led the northern avalanche
Well may st thou stand, when nations wheel
Their cannon towards thy throne!
Bnt when thy starving millions feel
A foe in thee alone,
Nor throne, nor lords, nor marshal power,
Can stand the onset Of that hour.

to their master, disclosed the whole design,
and aided in the arrest Of the offenders,
thus adding another to the almost immune
rable instances of that fidelity and attach
ment to their masters, which so extensively
prevail among the slaves in this State, So
different from that feeling which is alleged
TO exist between the master and the slave,
by those who know US not, and whom we
know only as the disturbers of our rights.
No such declared motives could appear in
testimony upon then trial, being forbidden
by that rule of law, which prohibits the dec
iaraions OF the accuse from being given in
evidence in his own favor, but have men
toned them for the purpose OF placing their
acts in, what they undoubtedly consider,
the most favorable light. Assuming their
aIedged motives to have been their only
indictment TO the commission Of the Of
fence, lie mischief to the community is the
same, and only shows the necessity Of re-
doubling our vigilance, and providing tor tive
exemplary Punishment Of offences Of this
class.
The time has at length arrived, when the
security OF our domestic institutions rests

PATENT OFFICE. Nov. |, 1912.

IIAVING noticed in the public prints an entire
misapprehension of the late act of Congress re-
specting the Patent Office, | hasten to say,
L. That the law does not alter the fec or drra-
ton of Patents for such objects have been hither-
to patentable-the amount of which is still thirty
dollars and the term fourteen years. The new law
extends protection to class of cases, viz De-
signs embracing patterns for silk, woollen and cotton
fabrics for busts, statue or bas relief, or compo-
sition in alto or basso relieve; such protection hav
ing been granted by foreign countries, and not till the
present law by the United States
2. The law extends the privilege of renewal
of lost patents TO all those granted before the fire OF
December, 1896; the former law limiting il TO those
actually lost before the trethus excluding many lost
subsequent to the fire, and before recording new,
leaving the inventor remedies.
3. American ministers, consuls &c. residing
abroad are authorized to administer oaths to
inventors. BY the former law such functonaries
permitted to perform this act-thus sub
jecting inventors to great Inconvenience.
4. The Secretary of the Treasury is author
lied to repay money paid into the Treasury for the
Patent Office by misake-thus precluding the neces-
sity OF making special application to Congress for
relief.
). The new law forbids, under a penalty, stamping
the word PATENT articles vended where no patent
has been obtained, and compels patcntees to stamp
the articles vended by them the date of the patent
thus aordng the public information of the duration
of the patent.
r Editors of papers or periodicals will render a
public service by giving the above insertion, as
the subject matter is interesting TO large portion OF
the community.

exertions to defeat his nomination at the Harrisburg
Convention and that he will resist the last all in

discipline As might be expected, the Clay press is
liberal in its philipcs against Mr. Spencer. 1t is
deemed sufficient cause for assault for any man to
spurn the trammels of the clique And we doubt
Nhether MIR. Clay himself, might not excite their bit
terest ire by simply Withdrawing from the canvass.
That he will do so, there is no danger; but if such
thing possible, there might be single chance,
among a thousand, that he might by and by sharpen

In the fall of 1870, was much exposed to night
air. and often took cold, hch was attended by hoarse-
and slight cough without fever or much other
indisposition. In December, | was scarcely ever
free from this complaint and during the early part of
the next February without some degree
of hoarsencss. cough; until, despairng of the
suficiency of Peases Hoarhound Candyn and
common remedies | was induced to make a trial OF
yorr Life-preserver. Before the middle of March
last the use of your medicine seemed to be the er at
cause of relief from the hoarseness and slight cough
which had so long annoyed me, and which all the
usual remedies had failed TO remove.
If any one be led to make the experiment as
did so happily, of your offered good, he will at least
find in it pleasant and harmless physic as be
administered in the mode prescribed by you.
