CAPITAL PUNISHMENT IN PENNsYLvANIA.-It
stated the other day that bill had passed the
lower House of the Pennsylvania Legislature for
abolishing capital punishment in that State. This
is not exactly correct. The following the pro-
visions of the bill
cit provides that hereafter for the
ton of any convict by hanging shall be issued within
year after the sentence Of death shall have been passed
and that after that PERIOD if circumstances shall have
to light to render doubtful the of the
verdict Of the jury in the matter the Governor shall then
issue his for such executions from the time of
conviction to the time of execution the convict shall be
confined in of the penitenaries of the Commonwealth
for safe keeping Upon the rendition of verdict of
guilty of murder in the first degree against any person
charged Herewith in any court Of this Commonwealth it
shall be lawful for the jury to recommend the
ycted to the mercy Of the court and every duly
convicted murder in the first degree whom the jury 50

shall be sentenced to undergo Imprisonment in of
the State pententaes and to be kept in separate

CARELEssSEss HUMAN LrrE.-We have had within
the past few days than the ordinary illustrations Of
the careessness Of human life which is prevalent in
this country. The falling Of buildings in New York and
the explosion Of steam boilers the Western waters
have forciby reminded Of the neglect common
here which in almost any other civilized country would
be visited with penalties Here they pass by with
punishment and almost without investigation few
newspaper paragraphs, little street talk and
the verdict of coroners jury complete the Of pub
lie indignation Other buildings 60 up in the care
less way and tumble down upon the workmen and passers
by. Other steamboats, built with the imperfect
machinery, placed in the charge Of just incompetent
men, and hurried to destruction in the same manner
We do not profess to know where is the remedy for all
this but the evil is immense and is increasing In the
West, especially, mans life is practically esteemed of
less importance than that of good serviceable beast

THE KossUTH SPIRIT IN THE SENATE OF
MASSACHUSETTS.

The Senate of Massachusetts, on Saturday passed
series of resolutions relating to National nteryen
tion which had been under discussion for some three
or four days. During this discussion, as we learn
from the Boston Daily Advertiser,
Judge WARREN attempted to bring the influence Of the
opinions of Gen. JACKSON and Mr. VAN buren, in support
Of the established doctrine of WASHINGTON and his
successors in the administration of the General Govern
men but the result of the experiment was somewhat d
yerting viz party vote in which the Wings divided in
the affirmative and the Democrats in the negative on the
question of adopting amendments to the resolutions
on the subject Of Intervention the following sentiments
contained in of the messages of Gen. Jackson to
Congress
'Our best wishes on all occasions our good Offices
when required will be afforded to promote the domestic
tranquility and foreign peace Of oil nations with whom
we have any intercourse Any intervention in their af
fairs further than this, By e oppression Of official
opinion contrary to principles Of national policy
and will always be avoided"
And the following from the inaugural address Of Pres
dent VAN BUREN,; -
"We have no disposition and we discaim all right, to
msddle in disputes whether internal foreign that may
modest other countries regarding them in their actual
state as social communities and preserving strict
traity in oil their controversies. !"
The Wing members voted for these amendments. not
because they were in the language Of JACKSON and VAN
BUREN, but because they embodied principles maintained
by WASHINGTON, ADAMS, and oil the Presidents, Mr.
FILLMORE included The Coalition Senators voted against
them, not the Advertiser presumes, because they re-
spect the authority Of jackson and Van Buren, less than
do the Wings but because they respect that of M Kossuh
more.
The Boston Courier justly rebukes the act of the
Senate in the following terms
The Intervention debate is very silly business for
every body knows that Intervention dead BORE
and that the subject is regarded mere theme for
schoolboy rhetorc-a sort of windmill to aid youngster
politicians in airing their vocabuaries But the Senate
had nothing to do, and compelled either talk of in
