A Summary Punishment.

The Pellew Islands in the South Sea are out of
the usual track Of commerce, but an enterprising
En~glishman established himself there many wears
ago for the purposes of trade. and became master
and owner Of a brig which sailed between that
group and China. lie amassed q competence and
was about 10 retire. when he suddenly incurred
the displeasure of the king, and was put todeaIh.
To ayenge this deed, Capt. Stevens, commanding
the British steamer PerSeus, at once repaired to
the islands. King Aba-Thule was among the
first 10 come on board. After the object OF the
visit had been explained TO his majesty. the latter
returned 10 the shore 10 consult, and in a short
time the prime minister personally gave assurance
that one of the principals in the alleged murder
should be given up. In justification of the SEN
tence executed upon the English trader, il was
charged that he had sold firearms to a neighboring
island with which King Aba-Thule was at war.
Capt. Stevens became satisfied that the king had
given the order for execution. and resolved that
a the prime mover in the affair must be made TO
suffer the extreme penalty of the law. A Manila
paper, from which the original account of this
transaction Is taken. saws:
The ministers expressed their desire that the
king should be executed by the crew of the Perseus,
but Capt. Stevens refused to aeceje to this propo-
sition, and insisted that justice should be admin
istered by the people themselves. The first lieu.
of the PHseus landed with a party of marines to
see the sentences carried into effect. On being
told TO prepare for death, tie king appeared
perfectly Indifferent 70 his fate, and boldly took
his place at the spot appointed for his execution.
y marine was stationed on each side of him,
and the prime minister was the person appointed
by his colleagues to take the part of executioner.
This official, apparently nothing 10th 10 fulfill
the duties imposed upon him, took up a rifle,
and aiming at his sovereign shot him dead, the
ball passing through his heart.
We think there are on record few instances of
more fragrant injustice.-N. y. Jor. Of COmL.
