Reynolds Is Convicted---Now Hang

Judge Gavin is entitled to the thanks
of the people for the prompt conviction
of the assassin Reynolds. The Judge
will doubtless do his duty by promptly
sentencing the murderer to death, and it
is difficult to conceive of any honest or
equitable ground which counsel can ask
for appeal to the General Term. The
fact is that all the moral effect of con-
viction is lost in the successive appeals
that, of late years seem to be granted as
matter of course. Take the case Of
Hand, who should have been hanged
months ago. Public interest is entirely
gone from his case, and, although no one
doubts his guilt, although one jury and
two courts have declared him the mur-
derer of his victim, he is again on the
highway to appeal, and very likely to
freedom. Certainly no one cares wheth-
er he is punished or not If he is par
doned, no one will be annoyed If he IS
hanged, very few will know for what.
The murder of Mr.. Townsend was
peculiarly cruel, brutal and outrageous.
There is not one extenuating circum-
stance--not one Reynolds is no more
insane than the lawyer who defended
him, and if he were under the influence
of liquor, he all the more deserves the
fate in store for him. Judge Ingraham
is a model judge. He combines the phi
osophical GOODNESS Of Cardozo with the
independence of Hackett; the quick
ness of Barnard with the thoughtful
ness of Sutherland He is honest and
conscientious in the discharge of his
duty, and as such the public look to him,
to-day, to vindicate the offended majesty
of the law, and to strike a blow which
the cutthroats and assassins of the city
will feel Sheriff O'Brien is tender
hearted as lamb. and lives in constant
dread of the shadow of the fearful duty
which, at times, comes within the pale of
his office. We would be glad to yield to
the human promptings of the sheriff g
heart, but he knows as well as we that
this knife and pistol business must be
stopped, and he must do his share of the
work IN. Y. Star, 23d ut fl

the POPE AND THE FENIANS.
The Followers of O'NeiI, ,O'Mahoney
and stephens Denied the Sacra-
ments and Christian Burial.


N. Y. Special to Cincinnati Commercially
An unexpected blast has just come
from the Holy City. 1t is intended to
sweep to the dust the whole fabric of
Fenianism in Ireland and America. His
Holiness has just signed decree en-
bracing an anathema against the Fe-
mans, and classifying them among the
carbonari and. other enemies Of the
church. Under the decree the disciples
of General 0'Neil, John 0 O'Mahoney and
James Stephens are cut off from the
church, denied the sacraments and the
ordinary right of Christian burial. They
cannot be buried in consecrated ground,
and any clergyman, priest or bishop who
undertakes to absolve them of their sins
while they are connected with the organ
izations not under the Papal bar, does so
at his peril. Annexed is translation of
the decree: .r
Since it has been doubted by some
whether the association of the Fenians
is deemed to be included among the as
sociations which have been condemned
in the pontifcal constitutions, our most
Holy Lord, Plus TX, by Divine Proyi-
dence Pope, having first taken the opin-
ion of their eminences, the Cardinals
Inauisitor General against heretical
yickedness in all Christendom, and be-
iae careful lest the hearts Of the faith full,
and especially of simple men, should, to
the evident danger Of souls, be led astray,
adhering moreover, to the DEGREES issued
elsewhere in similar matters. by the
Sacred Congregation of the Universal
Inquisition, and especially to the decree
of Wednesday, July 5, 1865, has decreed
and declared that the American or Irish
association called that of the Fenians is
included among the associations which
have been forbidden and condemned
in the constitutions of the Supreme
Pontiff, especially in the very recent con-
stitution of his same Holiness, published
on the l4th Of October, 1863, and be-
ginning with the words Apostolica
sedis. in the fourth paragraph, whereof
the excommunication 'lata sententi9 re-
served to the Roman Poutiff is declared
against those who are adherents OF the
sect of Freemasous. or Carbonari, or
any other sects Of the same kind, which

CT The prospect III present seems 70
bs good for the triumphant carrying af
the proposition for a one per cent tax Tor
two wears, in Bainbridge and HARRISON
townships to aid the RocHport and Nor
thern Central Railroad. 1t is no wonder
in these mud-bound times that people
are desirous Of securing better facilities
for transportation, and we confess
We cannot see how any man with half
sense can get his own consent to oppose
SO small an appropriation for so great
an enterprise. There is not man in
either of the townships but what will
be benefited more than four fold the
amount OF his tax, the first year the road
Is built, and it seems superfluous to talk
to enlightened men about the advantages
of railroad, and the necessity OF aiding
in its construction if we would secure
it. We are glad to learn there are but
few who are 90 dumb-hcaded as not to be
able to see their own interests, and who
are cursed with such a lack Of enter
prise as not to desire railroad. II oul
people do their whole duty the road vii
be built.
