from starvation, and the doctor and purser had gone

CONVICTION OF A CHILD FOR MURDER.-A

CONVICTION OF A CHILD FOR MURDER.-A
remarkable criminal case was before the
Court Of Albermarle county, Va, last Thurs
day, being an indictment against a little
negro girl, eight years old, for attempting,
by the most ferocious means, 80 murder her
mistress The Charlottesville ReyublicG
says:
The inhumanity and brutality OF The of
fenSe for which the accused was tried, and
her extreme youth, made this one of the
most remarkable cases to be found in the
annals oferiminal jurisprudence. The charge
against her was that, in April last, she at
tempted to kill her mistress (who was con-
fined to her bed from protracted sickness,
ar'a was very feeble, and entirely helpless,
by choking her, dragging her out OF bed, and
brutally beating her with the tongs, and
burning her with Goals and embers. The
probability is, that she would have succeed
ed in killing Mrs. I. very soon, had she not
been prevented by the arrival of the family
physician, who found her upon the floor in
a state Of insensibility.
The prisoner, at the time of the commits
sion of the deed, was about eight years and
nine months old. The case consequently
involved the consideration of the interesting
! question in regard to the age at which legal
responsibility for crime commences; or, in
other words, al what age person is, as the
law writers say, doll copdr. This question,
so far as we are advised, has not been set
tied by the judicial decisions of this coun-
try, the tendency of the decisions in Eng
land being to make it depend rather on the
intelligence and capacity to distinguish right
| from wrong, than on the age OF the party
accused. Blackstone mentions two cases as
having occurred in England, in one OF
which the accused was nine, and the other
eight years of age; and in which they were
severally condemned to capital punishment
Our court, in view of the irresistible evil
dence in the case, and the enormity and
brutality of the act, felt bound to convict
Judy OF the attempt to kill, and to sentence
her to be hung but, in consideration Of hei
tender years, they recommended her to the
clemency of the Executive.

THE RIeHr TO CHANGE ONES NAME.-The

AHb hiUHE 10 OhANGh ONE -Nahh.- ~
indianapolis Journal says: 1. DO 90 siI.ds
In a recent case, Judge Daily, of New
York, decided this point. A Hollander
named Shook, after his arrival in this coun-
try, changed his name TO Pike, that being
the English synonym, and transacted busi-
ness under it without any authority from
courts or Legislature. But becoming doubt
full of the validity of his transactions under
the change, he applied to the court 10 legal
ize it. Judge DAILY concluded, Jrst, that the
court could not change mans name unless
il was for his pecuniary benefit; and second,
that man might change his own name
without the help ofincourts whenever he
pleased. For the comfor. of scoundrels in
this State who may deem change Of name
advantageous, we may suggest that Judge
Dalys law, though very good and very sem
sible, is not the law here, where a statute
expressly regulates the change of names.
