Shall he be Hung?

In Boston Jail lies a cOlored man, n sailor,
named Washington Goode, under sentence
If death. The day of execution is fixed for
the 25th Of May next.
Some, well acquainted with the facts of
The case, entertain The most serious doubts Of
his guilt; while constantly and most conf
dentIally, he afirms his entire innocence
The verdict rests on circumstanilal evidence
Of the most tlimsy character, and the source
from which most even Of this comes, is most
suspicious-men and women Of more than
doubtful reputation. The main point Of the
case seemed to be. whether GooJe really was
the individual seen, at midnight, of a dark
and rainy night. by persons on the other side
o. the street from the individual they declare
10 be him. We know how utterly unrelia-
BILE, how extremely open to mistake, is this
testimony as 10 personal identity.
Furlher-this man is friendiess, ignorant
and neglected and there are those who fear
that a desire to see whether, after the repea-
ted combinations of punishment, the penal
ty of death can be inflicted in Massachusetts
"a desire TO test the question, or, in Ian
guage sometimes heard, This man shall be
hung, or the law formally repealed has had
some weight in booming this friendless wan
derer on the face of society, TO the ~galiows.
There have been several outrages Of late {:
many condemned TO death have been allow
ed to live in prison it is about time to take
one life, and show we can: this man has
few TO care for him-he is a negro &c. &c.
Such is the reasoning which is too often
heard.
Now, our view is, such is Just the indivi-
dual who should be spared. Ignorant, friend
less, degraded, What good can spring from
such an examplel All thinking men will
look upon it, viewed in connection with the
many who have been spared, as a barbarous
and dastardIy murder.
i. cOlOred man, tso-one whom society
most preeminenlly injures-doomed, with
such inevitable certainty, 10 ignorance and
vice, by cruel prejudice and wicked statutes
in almost every part of the countryside
child Of an abused race. Let it not be said
that the last man Massachusetts bore TO hang
was a colored man !-LiJerator.

other result than their Punishment from

out of the State would not be done by
many of the people of Kentucky. That

Gently appointed Mr.. Charles l.. Reason, Of
this city, Professor Of Languages and Bellies
Letters; the duties TO Sept. LIST,

son has accepted this appointment, which is
alike honorable to him and to the institution
whence it emanates. 4 teacher, from his
boyhood, he has the requisite experience, an
ardent student of letters and mathametlcs, he
has the requirements, which added TO an en-
lhusiasm in his profession, a most winning
manner and a high toned moral constitution,
together constitute in him an ornament to
any college in he land. Few men among
us have made greater sacrifices Tor the cause
Of sound education, and well does he deserve
the goal he has reached. In overcoming the
obstacles which prejudice against color, and
the absence of college training have placed
in his path, he affords an instance OF the tn
umph Of industry combined with a stern but

Capital Punishment in Michigan
