An enthusiastic friend of the Amer

to a gentleman prominent in otlirial

1876, Washington time) let all the
guns, the bells, locomotive and other
land whistles, the trumpets, the
drums, the organs and other musical
instruments, with the tens of millions
of si2qilsv voices Of our great land,
bust fof.h i'll sounds Of joy and
praise All the telegraph lines shall
be silent at the command of the
United States Government, from

great battery at Washington send the
electric flash and click over the vast
iron maze, to every city, end town
and village Of our own land, and even
to Europe, Asia, Africa, and the isles
of the sea, as far as the lines can be at
that moment secured: and at this
signal instantly let the cannon thun-
der forth the death kneIl Of oppros-

whistles proclaim 'hc grand march Of
civilization amid The Western wiIds

Capital Punishment.

We have had recently g scene Of
galows picty and sensational hanging
that may in tho minds Of many rob
the grave Of victory, death Of jrs
sting. and crime Of disgrace and
igncminy. If punishment for crime
is to have lis proper effect, IN the
repression Of like offences, It should
not hc accompanied with yuch
rasantry, and certainly not with
.uch q parade of goodness and religion
IN the cuIprits. Ihes. demonstrations
almost hide the enormity of the guilt,
for which life HAS been forfeited.
We DO not mean to impcach the
mercy Of God nor the zeal of His
ministers, hnt we moan to uphold the
law, which gives to crime its proper
coloriug, ard TO punishment ns right
ful efficacy, In the case of Nicholson
and IIoilohnn tho public is called on
to witness in the sensational arrange
ments Of the occasion, more tur
triumphant death, that belongs to the
life of the consistent Christian hero,
than TO the doom and punishment
inflicted upon men, who had heen
guilty Of an act az atroclons a. any in
the annals Of crime, Better much
that the mercy of God be not SO
questionahly paraded by men; better
far that criminals should not heccmc
preachers on the scahold, a'l the
pronouncers of orthodox pravHs,
imperfectly committed to memory.
The next time q man is hung, let il
be done in such a manner that it may
strike terror into the minds and hearts
of evil-docrs, and not be made ridc-
ulous by the rcrNetraticn Of mrrIer
the night following. Aye, many q
vicious and diseased mind would be
guilty Of crime if assured Of
fine cotlins, The notorietv belonging to
the death of q distinguished and
useful character, and the ministerial
assurance Of happy and bIisStuI
Immortality Throw a torrhlicht into
the recesses Of this mock-sentlmental-
ity, and guard the community against
its dark and dangerous influences.
