several petitions were presented in favor of support to
the Collins steamers bill to prevent the execution
of criminals in the District of Columbia ordered to
third reading The French spoiaton bill was taken
upland passed. 90 to l3 The Deficiency bill was then
taken up and Mr. Gwin made grand onslaught on the
Administration for extravaganza especially in the War
Department, which he urged as argument against
the election of military man for President
As both the Secretaries of War under whose authority
the extravaganza occurred, and the President under
whom the principal extravaganza charged was permit
ed, all civilians, Mr.. OWNS argument may be put
down q Of the most perfect seqaiturs in the
history of logic.
In the House the Public Printing bill was taken up
and set back Il prior to Friday. 1t is again
reference as could be made.
CF The latest Telegraph last night left the Baltimore
Wings discussing series OF resolutions in favor of Gen
Scott for President 1t not decided whether they
would adopt them not They had ordered letter of
Hon. John Barney, in favor of Mr. Fillmore to be sent
back to the author
CPs Wing Mass Meeting in Delaware, which was
addressed by Mr.. John Clayton had pronounced for
Scott and Cnrenden. 1t Is pretty evident that
Maryland, Delaware, North Carolina and Kentucky the

provement in The Tribune which we have long innpa
enrly desired Hitherto have used but one press in
printing paper, and though that was one of Hoes
Mammoth Lightning machines, the magnitude of our
dsiy edition Is such that one side of the sheetour out
Of our eight pageshas had to be put to press some
three hours before the other side This has been the
cause Of great practical Inconvenience ourselves and
our readers compelling often arrange the contents
OF the paper in confused and irregular manner SUCH
for instance. putting part of the Telegaphc Dis
patches the City News, the Commercial lnicIl yence
and Of the Ship News one side and part on the other
side OF the same sheet The advertisements we have
also been forced to distribute in a similar wav as ad
versemenss of some particular kind would Omen come
In after the mass Of advertisements of that sort had gone
to prefs on the first side OF the sheet This difficulty
We are glad 10 say, will be rcmedied BY the COM

CAPITAL PUNISHMENT.

Not long since Northampton, England
was the scene of one of the most shocking
instances of legal killing anywhere recorded
A woman named Elizabeth Pinchard, aged
71.was convicted in November last, Of hav-
ing poisoned her sistcr-in-law, woman III
wears older than herself, and was sentenced
to be hung accordingly. The evening be-
fore her execution, while she was receiving
the visit of clergyman, she tainted. All
efforts TO restore her to consciousness were
unavailing; she remained insensible, and
the next morning, as the hour of execution
approached, the sheriff thinking her dead,
called in a physician to decide as to her
condition. She was pronounced still NV
ing, and the execution was ordered to go
forward. The senseless body was placed
upon a cart and borne to the appointed
place, where a crowd of eager spectators
were assembled; two hangman's assistants
lifted her upon the platform; third put
the rope about her neck; the drop fell F.; the
majesty of the law was indicated the
unhappy woman, whose years had already
brought her to the verge of the grave,
was killed without knowing it; the final
punishment was no punishment to her.
1t would be difficult to imagine specta-
Gle more revolving than such an execution.
The hanging of a woman with gray hairs
and the steps of age trembling to the GAL
lows, would alone shock all unperverted
feeling, but the dragging thither of such
person, as q ifeless body, and all the dread
full circumstances attending the strangling
out of its faint, unconscious relic of vitali-
ty, might well make the most stolid advo-
cate of the gibbet doubt the infallibility OF
his opinions. Certainly, in such a case the
law must lose all claim to respect, and JUS
tce can wear none but repulsive and
brutal aspect. Our sympathies are all
with the miserable criminal.
Certainly, too, in such case, if in no
other, crime must be pronounced the result
of disease, of sort of insanity, meriting
restraint and careful treatment, but not
retaliation. The execution of Elizabeth
Pinchard is analogous to the cages, and
chains and starvation to which persons
mentally disordered used to be subjected.
Those things have disappeared before the
advancing humanity of the age. Capital
Punishment is sure to disappear from the
gradual action of the same cause.
