j. H. PARKS
Mr.. Parks Is evidently a logomachst and IL
determined to have his way In spite Of THE SUN,
or rather In spite Of the English language. He
holds that since, In his opinion, righteousness
and morality are synonymous terms, the word
righteousness Is a surplusage in the language"
But he will 1nd by referring to any common
dictionary that the two words he mentions are
not synonymes. We do not think that Web
ster's definition OF righteousness is IA correct or
comprehensive as that which was given In TIE
Sun, when II was spoken OF as "right-being and
rght-doing." The word Is used hundreds of
times In this sense. which includes both mind
and conduct, IN the Scriptures: and though Mr.
Parks cannot accept refutation 10y Scriptures"
Se must refer him thereto, FOR the very palpahIe
reason that while they are constantly speaking
Of righteousness they never speak Of morality
The translators found that The old native word
righteousness gave a better expression OF the
Hebrew idea than the Latin word morality; and
their judgment Il confirmed bv modern philolo-
~. In our language We have these words:
Ettics, morals, righteousness. They are analo-
e3us In meaning. but not synonymous. We Get
ethics from the Greek morals from the Latin,
aud righteousness from the old Saxon. OF the
three words, righteousness Is the most practical
and PERSONAL and the least abstract and sys-
TEN tie in its application. We speak Of a system
OF eth IS, or Of moral order; but we speak of
Righteousness as embodied In character life, or
deeds.
But let us stop by saying that II Mr.. Parks Is
determined to consider righteousness a surplus
age IN the language, we don't know what he can
do about ii, since he can't get il out Of the Ian
gunge which, in our opinion, It enriches, or out
OF the mind OF mankind, where In our judg-
ment It holds very distinctive aud important
place.

Good Tor the Murdcrers Themselves

1t il contcndcd that Whatever may be
the effect on the community, whether the
execution of murdcrers increases or dimn-
ishes the preparation Of capital crimes
the influence OF hanging on the murdercrs
themselves is beneficial. II is said that in
view of certain death, near at hand and
rapidly approaching, they become poni-
tent, and converted, and better prepared
for death than there is any probability
they would ever otherwise he.
There may he some truth in this: but
at the same time, many murderers die
uurcpentant hardened, and scofiing. Take
the case Of DELASEY the murderer OF
Capt LAWRENCE, executed ut the old
Hampstead Court House in Queens coun-
~, few weeks since. TO be sure, rs he
mounted the gallows he expressed desire
for forgiveness; but according to the ac-
counts in the daily papers NJ the time, he
spent the very night preceding his execu-
tlon' mp TO late hour, in ribald jokes and
telling vulgar stories. Indeed, his storie,
were so obscene that none of the reporters
related them; just rs NOAH DAVIs's tcsti-
mony before the Impeachment court nj
Saratoga was so filthy that the Judges of
that high tribunal ordered il omitted
from the records. 1t may not have been
any worse in DELANEY, poor, depraved
sailor than in NOAH DAVIS, a Judge and
Christian gentleman; but it seems even
more shocking in DELANEY. on account Of
the different situation in which lie was
placed.
But admitting for the DurDosos of this
discussion, that most murdercrs become
converts before they are hanged, and
waving all question Of the efficacy of such
repentance, let us inquire rs to the peril
nency Of the fact to the point at issuo-the
proprcty Of capital punishment.
The same argument has been urged in
Justification of war 1t has been held that
the consciousness of imminent peril awak-
ems spiritual ana religious sentiments IN
the breast Of the soldier ana if he dies on
the battle Held the probability is that he is
better prepared for death than he ever
would be- in his bed.
The question arises whether we have n
right to Kill people, or to cause them to be
put to death, because in our opinion it is
better for thcml
III we have and IL hanging il n pretty

The rabbi Of the Fifth Avenue Temple,
tn Rev Dr. GoTrnzIL, told our reporter. a few
days since, that he expected TO 90 To the Hippo-
dfomo TO see the revival and hear Brother
MOODY preach. II Rabbi GOTTnEII. does this,
We presume that othor rabbits wii, follow his ex.
nmulc, and Hat many OF the Istachtes IN their
synagorue- will do the sumo thing. The beliov-
ors In The Hebrew faith seem to have no sort OF
scrurlo about going TO churches In which a re-
hfion different from their own is preached.
Many Jews seem quite willing to send their
children to schools in which there are Christian
prayers, and in which the New Testament Is
read or Christian hymns are sung. Neither the
orthodox nor the liberal Jews appear to have
much fear OF being prosolytlzed. II has often
been thought strange by Christians that prose-
ktism meets with go little success among the
Jews in these tunes. The British "Suciety for
Promoting Christianity Among the Jews" has
been In existence for three-quarters Of a cen
turv. and has spent an inmense amount Of
money, but 1t makes 20 very few converts tina;
II is constantly subjected 10 taunts about tue
enormous cost Of each one Of them, Versecu-
tion, though kept up fu7 ages. failed to convert
the Jewsi but In his country also. where they
have never been brought under any kind Of per
secution, they seem still to be proof against
conversion.
The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1833-1916, 1876-01-23

The view Of death which prevails among
modern Christians differs widely from that
held in primitive times. Then the convert
10 the new faith went to The arena. or the
stake or the eNccutioner's block, joyfully
ns to the door Of paradise; but now, even
the most peaceful pNs,ingaway from earth
has terror which nppals the bravest
church member In religious gather
Ing the mere mention of death casts "A chill
over The company, ana 10 speak of it ON
ordinary occasions is esteemed an offence
against good breeding. SO far from being
conquered by religion, it is the conqucror
OF religion, ana has become more than
ever the great bugbcar of human existence.
indeed, IN every respect, death was less
reared by the ancicnts, Gentiles rs well as
jews, Than by modern Christians. The
