for want of organization and confidence in
each other. At length the rebel guards were
appealed 10, and detachment OF soldiers
sent inside the prison, under the cover of
whose muskets the prisoners gathered, and
prepared to rid the prison of .those terrors to
the peace of the community.
Strong squads of determined men secured
the prison and hunted down the raiders like
wild beasts. Those captured were retained
by the guards outside the prison until they
were tried by court gathered from among
the prisoners. Six of the leaders were sem
fenced to be, and were hung. That gallows
saved many more and much more valuable
lives than it cost.
Order reigned in the prison after that.
True-a police government had been estab-
lshed which ruled with an iron sway, but
what force or power could it have maintained
had it not been for the precedent established
that 1t was able to punish criminals in the
only way in which it was possible to punish
them then and there
The laws given by the Almighty to the
Jews were laws for the government of human
society and the penalties were to be inflicted
by human agents. To be sure it was socie
ty differing very much from our own but the
abstract proposition is none the less clear
that men had the God given right to execute
the death penalty. Whether it is advisable
in our own State in its present stage Of civil
ization to maintain capital punishment is
quite another question.
The only certain test of the value o. JUS
tice of human law is its effect upon society
and SO this question must be decided by the
law of statistics more than by human reason
ing or preconceved ideas. Only these sta
tistics, should be compiled with great care
and patience, and due allowance be made for
outside causes which disturb the peace OF So
cisty and make crime more frequent in one
period than another-in other words care
must be taken not to charge more to the gal
lows than rightfullv belongs 10 it. w.
