acqut the guilty than hang the innocent; ana 80
vote Not Guilty Murder is In its nature 10 noFr'oie
that the virtuous man shrinks from believing Il was
committed in rational frame OF mind and insanity
i; so cor,roon an varied in character and often 30
,ore d;sgnised and unsupported, that it is easy to
nersoade the willing mind that it may have existed
when there is no room TO doubt the agency OF the
accused in the bloody tragedy for which he stands
arraigned.
4 L, is thus seen that the difficulty is moi 10 NC

indicated by La FAYETTE' ana we oe.e ~
o,c..v,, also. as their ground OF hostility TO IN
60 Death-viz: the uncertainty OF human test
,,onv and the fsbility of human Judgment
s. But says the Courier, if Jurors will not con-
vic, while the penalty is Death they would not if it
were Imprisonment for Life-especially as some
consider the latter the severer punishment To this
we oppose, lst notorious facts; 3D. every mans
own consciousness that he could consent TO yer
die, of Guilty even though bare loop to hang
doub. upon dad exist, in case the penalty were In
prisonment when he could not if it were Death !;
Sd, the reason therefor. We all know that Death,
once inflicted is irretrievable. Convict to-day hang
next June and though July shall develope unex-
pec,ed yet conclusive evidence OF the innocence OF
the accused is impossible TO remedy or at all re-
dress the awful mistake. Some words OF CONDO
ence or acts of munifcence to the surviving rela-
tives OF the hangmans victim-some empty parade
of waving colors over strewing flowers upon that
victims graye-is the best that human ingenuity
can devise and human power accomplish But let
the convict be immured in the dimmest and most
impregnable cell-sufering and sorrowful bat still
livipg-and at the tidings of his discovered inno-
cence bis prison doors would fly open his loving,
no more despairing but enraptured wife, children
and friends would rush 10 overwhelm him with
their sympathies and their fearful rejoicings and
even the many-headed multitude would profound
" exult in the vindication of long. tried innocence

recon pensed by the gain of 30 holy and glad an
emotion. Thousands would vie with each other In
smoothing the future pathway OF one who had suffer
ed such undeserved opprobium and affection Is not
all this certain And would it not impel Jurors 70
