Piernantthe Poet

When John Pierpont died, the western
continent lost her Oldest living poet and
indeed one of the first, living or dead, to
attain fame. John Pierpont prsctised law
during the war of 1872, and published
his first book of poems while Madison was
President His life ran through strange
vicissitudes. he was alternately business
msn, lawyer, teacher, poet and minister !.
in religion first Congregations list then
Universalist,the Congregationalist again,
snd finally Spiritualist; in all, as We be-
lieve honest and earnest.
He was born in Litchfeld, CONF, April
9th, 1855, and had reached his eig hty-
second year. he graduated from Yale at
nineteen, and after spending four years
in South Carolins as teacher in the faI u
ily Of Governor Allstoa-the husband Of
the beautiful and bewitching TheodOsi .
Burr-he returned to New England ancl
eommeneed the study of law. Admitted
to the bar, he commenced the practice of
the law in Newburyport, Mass, in 1872,
but this proving unremunerstive, he en-
gagged in business, with, however, no bet
ter results. He thence went to Baltimore
where in lsle,h be published his first poem,
aAirs of Palestine" and simultaneously
commenced the study of theology.

An illustration of the evils incident
upon the abolition of capital punishment
is afforded by the hanging of the negro
murderer, Taylor, on Monday night by a
mob, at Lansing, Mich. Had the law
against murder provided for the hanging
of convicted murderers, the community
would have been spared the disgrace and
danger which attends every manifestation
of Lynch law. But the law of Michigan
only provides for life imprisonment as
penalty for murder, and this does not
satisfy the sense of Justice in the heart Of
any man who contemplates the terrible
nature of the crime. We do not justify
the lynchers-their act, in 8 civilized
community, was inexcussble, and should
be punished by the heaviest penalties-
but wo say that if capital punishment
legally existed in Michigan tie lynching
would not have taken place
