Lincoln


The spy, Webster, who wac executed nea,
1tis city few weeks ago, Was ,risd by q
court martial, and convicted upon the clearess
testimony. According to the laws Of war, az
understood and acted upon by every nation on
earth, his sentence WAS Just, and he but enf
.ered the penalty due to biz crime
We learn from the Ea2uirer tina. Lincoln
las determined to retaiiats by hanging Mr.
Smiihson, Of Washington a banker in high
,epute, who has not even been charged witt
sny ofence il violation of the Ia &C nations,
and who wAs arrested only tor furnishing re.
lief to Confederate prisoners. II is difficult t.
conceive the meditation even Of such q crime
snd almost inpcssibie to believe that i, il &c.
siously designed to perpetra.e It. Aud vet We
lave eeer enough of Lincoln, and tee foul
brood that surround him, to feel assured tia,
40 would stop short of no ssrocity loss horri-
bic than this, which we conceive to he tba
most horrible Of al.
1t lie easy to understand what Lincoln e..
poets 20 gain by the contemplated crime. Es
hopes to secure immunity for spies to come
and 60, into and from our lines without mo
ssst4tion. He will be deceived III his caleuls-
s1ons Every Federal spy takea within our
'ines will be hung, be the consea ueuces " hat
they may. he will not be able TO ,ntiuids.s
our Government, and he can only inaugurats
& War OF indiscriminate slaughter. Should hs
bang Smi.hsor, the deed will meet with in
slant retaliation. Painful as it may bs, such
1ust be The inevitable recu!:. On his
eoouiders will rest the guilt OF cold biooded
murder, With all its tremendous consequences.
