Cheating the Hang1nail.
[London Correspondent Of the World.

-
Another murderer who was to be
hanged has just succeeded in cheating
the ,galloWs by starving himself to-
death. remember hearing Of a case
of this kind in Massachusetts a few
months ago, but there / believe the
man did not succeed and was hanged.
His English confrere was more success
full. His name was james Flynn,
and he was sentenced to death for tho
murder Of Il woman. He received his
sentence OH the 1st of August, and
from that moment he refused to take
his food, and died ON the day he was
to be hanged, which was on the 18th
inst. 1t seems, therefore, that u strong
man, III good health, can live only
twelve days without food.
On the first night the Governor Of
the prison did not think there was q
determination On the part Of the pris-
oner to refuse food, but that msappes
tite had merely forsaken him for the
time being through the severity Of the.
sentence. On the following day, how
ever, Flynn still persistently refused
to eat any thing, and the Governor
called the attention of the surgeon to
the matter. The surgeon advised that
he should be tried to the breakfast
time the following day, and if he
still continued in his determination to
reject his food, means should be taken
to compel him. Contrary to the ex-
pectations Of the surgeon, he still held
out, and it was decided to bring the
stomach pump into requisition.
Up to this time the man had con-
Quoted himself with more sullenness
than violence, but when he saw the
surgeon and his attendents at the door
/ of his cell with the stomach pump he
seized stool, and swiging it over his
head, swore he would knock out the
brains of any one who attempted even
/ to enter his cell. They were thus held
at bay for some time, but the wnrder
/ who had been in attendance on Flynn
| watched his opportunity, and seized
| the prisoner round the arms and body
and pinioned him while the surgeon
and his attendents succeeded in plac-
ing the pipe of the instrument down
the mans throat.
| Finding himself baffied in his at
tempts not to allow the use of the in
strument, he now became exceedingly
violent, and worked his head about in
so ferocious II manner that the interior
of his throat was lacerated so much
that the surgeon found it useless to
attempt to use the pump again. After
this the prisoners boots were removed
and slippers supplied to him; for, see
ling the mosd he was in, it was
thought he might make use Of them
as weapons Of violence. On the day
ff0ifowfng, as sn1lyed VI 'esef day
since his sentence, the Governor en-
deayored to induce him to partake OF
food, and sent to his own residence for
tea and bread and butter to give the
man. This was also refused, FLYNN
taking just a sufficient quantity of the
tel. to noisten his throat and his lips,
but leaving the solids entirely nm
touched. He died on the twelfth day
and, strangely, enough, his body was
found to be only slightly emaciated

THE EXHIBITION DINNER.

The annual dinner OF the Industrial Exhibition
Company was held last evening at the st. James
Hotel. Shortly before eight p. M. the guests sat
down to dinner Among those present were Richard
Schell, Alderman Vance, General Lloyd Aspinwall,
Commodore G. K. Garrison, A. S. Diven, Abram 8.
Hewitt X. B. Roosevelt, d. NJ. Koehler, Erastus
Brooks and others. Nearly three hundred promi-
nent citizens Of New York were invited. but there
were not more than forty present The dinner was
excellent and everything passed or very pleas
antly.
Mr.. Owens, who, In the absence OF General Dix,
presided. commenced by apoogizing for the alb
sense of the Governor elect. 81 will not explain,
gentlemen he said, show you came to be invited
to this dinner Mr.. W. D. ogden, the promoter OF
the Industrial Exhibition, although not present, in-
terested me in this affair.
THE OBJECT OF THE DINNER
Is money. As we all know no great enterprise can
be successfully carried out without money; in fact
money makes the mare co." Mr.. Diven then

give description OF the building that 1t was
proposed to- erect. The lot had been bought for
al 500 900, of which $250,000 had been paid down.
The balance was to be paid before the lst
OF February, and SO consequently 1t was
OF the moment. This dinner was given to bring
together the wealthy men OF this CITY, so as to let
them what was gSnHs on rhe speaker con-
this matter we should shortly he entirely in the

MIR. CHAvNcHY DRPEw then followed, and spoke
of the immense advantages OF New YORK, and how
with her chances, she should be foremost on the
Continent. Speaking Of Boston, Philadeh
phia and Baltimore, the speaker showed
how each OF these cities by enterprise
had built up business that New York could
never take away from them, and now 1t was
necessary for this island to look after Its supre-
macy. Now, said the speaker, there are two
elements which should make every man subscribe
to this enterprise. First, the profits he will gain
Second, his professional pride in his homestead
and It's success. Mr.. Depew then alluded to the i'm

| gained by Philadelphia in case she should carry
through an exhibition that was not brought out In

simplifying tho
Revenue

simplifying tho Internal Revenue
Machinery.
Our Washington dispatches bring intelli-
gence of new plan for ridding the public
service of a part Of the present cum
brous and expensive internal revenue
system. This plan has been put in the
shape Of bill at the Treasury De-
partment and sent to Mr.. Sherman, chairman
of the Finance Committee Of the Senate, and
to Mr.. Dawes, Of the Committee of Ways and
Means, for their examination and approval.
The President and the Secretary of the Treas
ury are both favorable to it. and will urge its
passage at the ensuing session Of Congress.
The advantages expected from it are the
retirement of about sixteen hundred
officials from the public service and
saving of million and half of dol
lars annually to the Treasury. These things
are in themselves matters Of great importance,
but the incidental consequences are almost as
important as the direct results. The country
will breathe more freely when there are no
longer any m6f5 assessors 81 assistant asses
sors and collectors or deputy collectors of in
ternal revenue to vex the spirits Of taxpayers.
The distillers, especially, will rejoice, for the
tax officers have vexed their spirits in more
ways than one. But we protest in advance
that this measure must not be made a mere
pretext for delay. The same consideration
which will enable Congress to agree to reso-
luton postponing the carrying into effect of
the Internal Revenue bill passed at the last ses-
sion is sufficient for the consideration and pas
sage Of this measure. Postponement of the
operations Of the existing law might result
only in retaining the internal reven6e officials
in Office indefinitely, and in reality increase,
rather than diminish, the cost Of collecting the
revenue 1t is plain enough that the Internal
Revenue Bureau ought to be consolidated, for
it is certain that it now comprises hundreds
of useless officials. Congress owes it to the
country that the whole system shall be wiped
out, the stamp taxes being generally preferable
to all others, and simpler method, easy Of
attainment,

ROME, Nov. 90, 1872.
It is reported that second Ecclesiastical Prov
ince OF the Roman Catholic Church Is to be estab
lished in England, with Liverpool as the MetropOli
tan See.
On the 1st Of January, 1870, there were eighteen
Roman Catholic Episcopal dioceses, including the
Archdiocese of Westminster, in England. These,
taken together, form the Ecclesiastical Province OF
Westminster, with the Most Reverend Archbishop
Manning at its head. The Province OF Liverpool,
should it be constituted by the Pope, will contain
very large population Of Roman Catholics.
