THE DAILY GAZETTE.

Such is the title Of the new Calhoun paper
commenced il. New York. Ii is handsome
sheet, and that il is able, we have the guarantee
of The name of Mr. Ketteil, who has been spo-
ken Of rep a,edly by the Richmond Enquirer as
one of the ablesl writer's in the country.
We amend an extract from The leading edio-
rial Of the first number. We DO no, pretend 20
conjecture what impression it will convey 10
Others, but we are decidedly Of the opinion that
it is quite signfca mt Of the intentions OF the
Free Traders, whose name is legion. In these
degenerate days il becomes The People to attend
10 their own affairs. If they DEPEND upon the
Justice or forb,arance Of political managers,
they must re disappointed and deceived. The
managers will put up the men as candidates who
will pay the best-not the best and strongest
men:
alt is known beforehand to most Of those TO whose
hands this sheet will come, that consider the
cause Of Free Trade identified with the name Of
JoHN c. CALHOUN. The vote that will be east for
him as a candidate for the Presidency ~il Indicate
nearly what strength the Free Trade principle pos.
sesses among our masses; strength already great
and hourly increasing under the wholesome though
oppressive experience of the effect Of laws made for
restriction. No other candidate is before the People
on the Free Trade interest-no other whose election
will signify any thing favorable 10 that interest no
other indeed, save only Mr. Clay, whose name repre-.
sents any active principle at all. But Mr.. CAL
houn does represent principle, and ono with which
he has never tempered or eQuvocsted. He never
takes the middle ground he never faces both ways
alternately he disresses himself and the spec
tatos by attempting TO face both ways at once he is
plainly and fairly for Free II ade We adhere him
upon That and we call for the drawing of that line
which is the Only significant one possible among
our parties and our men between Calhoun and Free
Trade on the one hand, and Clay with Government
regulation and official intermeddling on the other"

New YoRK, November II, 1913
II must be source Of just pride with the
President, as il is with his friends, that his fore
cast and wisdom in i,ling the attempt of the
Wing leaders TO divert the proceeds of the pub
lie lands from lae Treasury ofthe United States,
have been so clearly demonstrated AT the time
he declared the course he would pursue, State
stocks, aud even those Of the General Govern
menr, were begging their way in every market
But the moment il became certain that the Pre-
sidents policy would be, first of all to esta blish

would inevitably follow, ii the credit of the
General Government could be firmly re-esiab-

al a ruinous sacrifice but Mr.. Tyler persever d
in his policy, rriumphed over the plunderers in
Congress, carried the measure Of retaining the
land fund in the Treasury, as the basis of pub

United SAFES loan now commands a premium
OF 20 per cent, and holders are confidently look

interest is regularly paid, have risen in nearly
the same ratio even those OF Indiana and ILL.,
nois have experienced an advance of more than
100 per cent. on the price AT which they were
sold eighteen months ago. Thus has the pre-
diclion Of the President been fully verified, and
the soundness of his 5 atesmanshp on this sub
ject b er clearly and triumphanrly demonstrated

CAPITAL PUNISHMENT.

I The following among thousandsof instanceswil
tend to shew how much there is in the argument
which elaine that the fear Of Imprisonment will
deter from crime. A man in Dover, N. H. MUIR
dered bis wife, under shocking circumstances. A
paper published in that town, says
e The crime of murder was recently commit
ted in an adjoining town at MONDAY. The murder
.er possessed no malice towards his victim. She
had often treated him with kindness. He had been
sheltered beneath her roof and fed at her table
Why then did he take her life ? Simply for her
moaey. This he afterwards confessed After he
was arrested and brought to Dover he was asked
what he thought the penalty Of the crime would be.
He.replied, from ssvento ten years Imprisonment
in the State Prison. He was informed that, acccr-
ding 70 the laws Of the State, the penalty Of mar
der was death. AT this he appeared to be thun-
dsrstruck. That law, said he, was repealed at the
last session. You are mistaken said his informant.
The question Of reteal was agtated but the law
was not repeaied-it stands on the statute book in
full force. mention this Circumstance to show
the salutaryxinfuence Of the Inv. II this man had
not sunposed that the law referred to had been
healed he would probably never have committed
that awful crime: and thus he would have been
savedlrom the guilt Of murder, and his innocent
victim would not have suffered violent and un.
timely death It shows also that other motives be-
