the Ncw York Journal of Commerce joins the
mistaken cry Tor clemcncy, and is reasons
imply that living mGrtyr, at hard work i"'
life" is les, dangerous than Il dead MARTYR
that the pcniten'iary makes man more ct a
lc,on than the gallow,-and that "miSgu!dcd
people" >ympathsc more with the forgotten
dcad than with the suffering. hard.working,
confined living.
Tou< it appcar> that John Brown, at hard
labor. would he continual source oi supply
for Abolition ianaticiSrn: that his groans
would rcsound trom Richmond 10 Ea>iport, and
from the lanes river To the 81. Lawrence: that
every meeting Of the Black Republican and
Abolition parties would herald forth resoIu-
tions for his liberation; that the stump, in every
election. from II Constable t" the Presidency,
would hc rcdolcnt with praises "t his hcroiSm
and curses upon his Imprisonment. Not 50
with John Brown executed.
he has forfeited hi, lie. ami though possess
ci II manv traits Of chara'tcr that were
worthy of better fate, pity and coInmlsera-
ton are closed against the murderer of Turner,
Bcckha!n. Ic.
"yindirtivc and blind feeling has character
lied no part ui this trial. and We can appeal 10
the world. that neither "indcrcnt haste, harsh
treatment, or any wrong has been offered I"
The prisoners ! speedy but fair, trial was
demanded hy all the circumstances y grlcv-
ou< wrong had been done; ard quick rctribu
tlon was necessary Threats Of rescue were
freely made, and the prisoner, by Il bold ana
impuhcat c'Irontcry held ont the belief that
hope of rcliei was -ti entertained
This effort to defeat the end o! justice implies
u fear Of The fanatics on tn" part of those wI:o
urge this strange request. rs Virginia and
the South have more occasion TO fear the mis-.
crcant, the execution Of Brown may excite to
similar deeds Of ra>hncSS and folly. We desire
to bc left to or own course for similar cases
i'll the future
Virginia will execute Brown and his a,So.
riatcs. and feels herself able To meet AL the
consequences that may arise from that act.

most intelligent and Respectable sources III the
non. s,aycho!diur States come letters fall vi re-
spcct end courtesy, some of them evidently Tree
rom all sinister motive or influence invoking
the Governor 10 pardon Brown. The croumt
Of good feeling is urged rs the reason Gi their
recommendation: the enemies Of the tOn>tllu-
ti"n. who are ciia.r!ncd By the exposure ol
their crimes will have 10 chance oi recovering
the influence they have lost; Virginia and her
Governor will be everywhere hailed with nn:'
ycrSal love and gratitude
Oae Of the writers says that, if the Hoycr-
nor could be on the ground and see the State o
sentiment in the non-Slarcholding States upon
this subject, he would not hesitate FOR an m
slant. All this explains the Sympalhlzng tone
oithc New York JoWrtalC.f L0mmGrcS, TO winch
sc referred yesterday, hitherto ConSerrati'"
paper, bu, which seems now 10 be infected by
The general madness The writers Of these lei
;crS undcrratc the Sagacty, tirmneSS and the
character of the Eirsinian ut the head OF this
great Commonwealth, when they address to
him such appeals. In the most cold.hiooded
and deliberate malice and wckedneSs, JoHE
BGowx has committed the greatest crimes
known to human law and now they who in
S,icatcd his crimes threaten vengeance If he Is
a.,
are ALWAYS enlisted in behalf of suffering
villainv. insist that It would be good policy TO
let him 20. 1t would neither be good policy
nor good J,yincipic-a thing which there seems
to he precious little idea Of, in the minds "i
many of these sympa,hzerS.
But why these sympathizing letters: : Some
nE.thcm are from men hch in wealth and posi-
ton, and who are themselves strongly suspect
cd of a willingness to make money ont Of South,
crn blood. They are uneasy in their own
minds: their conscience tells them that Brown
is in his present position through their agency;
that he is only their tool and instrument, ami
that not only the blood shed at Harper Ferry
i, on their hands, but the life OF old Brown aad
his ronfrdcratrs also Hence their anxiety To
rescue him from the fate impending o"cr his
head. We do not say that all the letters
from influential quarters received by TO-
vernon Wise are prompted by this mo-
tive; but some Of them undoubtedly are.
We wOnid suggest to sympathizcrS oi this
stamp the only mode Of approaching the Gov
crnor Of Virginia which affords them the
smallest chance of receiving even hearing.
! Let them offer their own precious ncckS IN The
place of Brown Their conscienccs tell them
that, if he dies. they are guilty Of his death
Let them come on. and offer 10 die in his place.
Let some of the Boston spectators in South
cru cotton try the merits OF this system 81 cH
changes. We venture TO say that i! they viii
draw on Southern hemp, the DRAFT vii! be i'm
! ulcdia,clv honored. and the bonds Of Union
pulled ~ tight that they will never agar
breathe ! d!-nyal and tTaitOrous breath
