PUNISHMENT WITH DEArH.-This is q question
~bich has been long mocted, and ever and anon,
continues to BE- agtated by sentimental folks, when
over their personal feelings have been involved The
criminal code of NorthCarolins has been violently
.ssailed by Observation-Disclosures of other States,
and now and then, by persons of similar sympathies
among our cltlzenS
unon Hogue, the murderer Of Parish in Raleigh, has
cveu vent to the olous raphsody Of correspondent
If the Petersburg Express, who says that ''blOod!
Mooi blood y" is the characteristic Of the Grim
n,l code of our State and calls loudly for q peni-
tentiary Such expressions are not always indca-
tive Of the sound sense or sober judgment Of those
rho use them. but are sometimes the ebulliton Of
feelings engenlerei by interested motives or false
views of Justice.
Death is the just penalty due to the crime of viii
f murder in all cases. and it is equally due tO the
man who forcibly despoils female virtue. We doubt
# any right-minded man can believe otherwise
That death is due to some of the offences made SO
highly criminal by some of our laws, may be ques-
toned but the entire abolition of capital punish
ment from our statutes, and making the higher Of
fences simply punishable with incal ceration in q
uenitentiary, would be sad day for North Carolina
Bloody as her criminal code may be, she can boast
of a state OF morals, which few of her sisters can
claim and perhaps to one thing is she so much
indebted for it, as to her bloody code.
But We attach no serious Importance to these &C.
caona vapourings of excited persons. Oar statutes
are founded in the wisdom of Divine revelation and
the experience of ages, and there is among pco-
pie the deepest conviction of their justice and uti.
ty-of the right of the State to inflict death upon
that class of men, who riot in deeds Of blood cor
uption and revenge.
We can, however, see no formidable objection to
the establishment of Penitentiary, for the punish
ment of crimes which do not merit death. We do
not say there no objections to them. There are
many, yet under proper discipline they may be
made beneficial in restraining the vicious and pro-
noting the good Of society. But in the choice be-
tween penitentiary and the total abolition Of pun
Ihment, We could not hesitate moment which to
choose Washington Dispatch.

: CASA, Hoo REAsoEf-A gentleman of
this place relates 20 as the following story
of hOggish sagAeityl While on his way 70
Neqaunee. the other day, BE- discovered a
large hog in the road, quarter Of mile
or more 10 advance of his sleigh, and go
ing in the same direction. The track was
narrow. (merely a sleigh or sled path. )and
oh either side the snow was several feet
deep. Presently his hegsbip, by some
chasce, noticed the coming vehicle, and
raising himself up took deliberate view
then with all speed started toward il.
with squeal for lie. Oar traveller nn-
used to inch demonstrations. finally stop
ped his horse and waited the denolement
On came the hog. until within 9 short dis
lance Of him. when coming to a aide path
he entered il. fnrned afoand and walked
away. The only conclusion 10 be arrived
at. Is. that the animal seeing no Other
means Of escape, decided that reaching
the path was bis only means Of safety -
Had he been obliged TO tdrn out into the
deep stpR; he WOald been p goner. =

Sometimes whom mornings iris light

The bless'd realm must surely llei
But mornings brow BY noon isfanned,
And thou art stll the distant land,
And oft when sunsets Furnished gold,
Falls warm upon the waters breast, 10

And th6n tifeam--a blissful dream ~
