THE LAW

The New York Tribune, speaking OF
the acquinaI Of young Mercer. describes
very iorcibly the evils which NAV re :
suit from it. We publish its remarks in
today's paper.
We fel rejoiced, we must confess, al
his acQunraI We could not help it,
Yet, except in legal sense, we were
not satisfied with the grounds Of that ac
qutlal, Insanity was the plea. Who
believed it? What man that shouted al
his freedom in, or out. Of the Court
House, thought him insaueS Not one
Blinded with rage he might have been;
tortured with The agony Of passion he
was; and oil this naturally enough - for
the wrong done him was enough 10 stir
him up 10 the excess; but he was not
insane. His purpose was deliberately
formed, and as deliberately executed
Now, putting aside all sympathy for
Mercer, what must be the result, if pleas
Of this klud, and in such cases, are ad-
mitted, and the public so heartily rejoice
in their being suslained7 Why this:
that a party aggrieVed will feel, il the
law does not mele oul 10 him justice,
that he may lake It himself. What then
ought TO be the aim OF the public and
the legislator? So to frame cur laws
that justice will be done, in all cases.
This is The Ray TO give them efficacy,
and 10 make the expouaders Of them, as
they ought 10 be, The pillars Of peace
and order; and, without this, We can do
neither. Whenever the public mind
leels lhathhe law does not do Justice it
has it's thahilua respect for, and it's de
pendence upon it, in all other respects,
weakened, &n6hs ever tempted 10 com

This is a subject which merits the best
thought Of our best nRen. and, we hope,
they will give more TttenIon TO it here
after, than they have hitherto DONE
