THE LAWS DELAY.


The following we copy from the
Nashville Banner:
The Nashville Christian advocate thus
concludes reference to the recent brutal
and cruel murder of Mrs Jarratt, of Ruth
erford; We say emphutically there
must be no yHching, and to prevent it
there must be no laws delay nor failure
to punish legally such atrocious wretches."
The hint herein given is well
worthy Of consideration. The only
excuse that we have ever heard Of
fered for mob violence, was the " laws
delay" We do not admit the suf-
ficiency Of the preteXt by any means,
but must admit there is some force in
it. Mob law is wrong at all times
and under all circumstances. 1t de-
moralizes and disgraces any commun-
ity where it is permitted. No respect
able citizen Of our State Capital now
recurs to the late mob at Nashville
without the blush of shame tinging
his cheek.
One way to avoid everything of this
character, is 20 see the law rigidly,
impartially and promptly enforced.
We have seen too many criminals es-
cape speedy and exact justice, be-
cause the courts Of the country tenn
ported with them and allowed them
and their counsel for the most frivol.
Gus reasons to postpone from month
to month, and term after term, and
when they we're tried and convicted a
new trial has been granted them be.
cause Of some technical irregularity
permitted or INDUCED in perhaps for
that very purpose. This slow and
uncertain process entails an immense
amount Of costs to be paid by the tax
payers, and robs the law of half its
terrors for evil doors. 1t has become
so common, that verdicts Of juries in
felony cases, especially where the
culprit happens to have money or in
fluential friends, are looked upon
with about the same veneration as at
taches 10 the result of games o.
chance.
No country can afford to tolerate
