took place on the condemned person. During
the excuses of the French revolution, when
Marat, Danton, Robespiere and the Others
purchased DR.. Guillotine's patent head de-
c,pitator, we are told that the executions in
Paris were enjoyed by crowds and crowds Of
women and children, Jacobins, who used to 90
with their knitting needles to witness
the bloody work. A subsequent
law prohibited all this. One week
ago to-day, we set forth our special reasons
for opposing these public executions, these
tningS that make the culprit the hero Of the
hour before the thousands who attend from
morbid curiosity and become hardened by
too great familiarity with the spectacle. The
lsw of this state requires that these hangings
shall be private in the Jail or Jail yard, if
possible, Let the next legislature of Texas
strike out the last two words and it vii! have
taken step forward in the interest of hu-
mainly, in the cause of civilization, as well rs
in the detergence Of crime.

Yesterday afternoon, B. F. Cook, who
lives in Tarrant county, just beyond the
Dallas county line in the west fork Of the
Trinity river, in difficulty beyond the river,
had his throat cut, but not dangerously. 1t
seems, that at the city end of the turnpike
beyond the river, three men were standing
beside the road, all of them under the in
Auence of liquor. According to Cooks
statement these men were uttering insulting
remarks to every person who passed by. lie
and some friends went by them, and one of
his friends, taking umbrage at the remarks
they made, went back and became involved
in difficulty with them. He went back
then, and when the fight took place
he rushed in to separate the parties
and one of the three men in question hit him
with rock and he then knocked the man
down, and on the second ones making q
demonstration at him he knocked him down,
when the melee became general and during
it one of them cut his throat with pocket
knife. The wound, while it reached arc md
his throht, is slight one, only going skin
deep. He bled profusely, and coming to
town, DR.. Childress dressed his wound in n
sllilliul manner and made him all right.
Cook showed nerve and grit all the time and
refused solicitations to 90 to the hospital
where he could be under the able and skill
full management of DR.. Chidress, saying
that he had been there before had been shot
and knew how sore wounds got and preferred
to 60 home ut once where he Coald be under
the nursing and tender care of his family. He
is all right and will shortly be well.

CAPITAL PUNISHMENT.

Yesterday was a memorable day for the
criminal annals of Texas. Three Sc. execu.
tons for the fatal Friday was an unusua'
calendar. Two hangings under the laws
provisions and one suicide TO avert them
ought to constrain even our bittere:t
traducers to allow US a more thar valetudinl
arian virtue in the matter of attempt
ing to suppress crime. Capital punishment
is the extreme penalty of the law and
has been applied from the earliest history of
man Down to the present day in some shape
or another. Whatever may be its merit it
has been frequently reprobated by iursts, spill
osophers and philanthropists, many Of whom
most peremptorily deny the right of any
person or tribunal to impose it. Among the
more barbsrous tribes, ii is punishment in.
Aicted for certain offences, but, as in the case
Of the Hottentots, without any regular form
oftrial. The object of the penalty is two
fold, first, to exterpate the offender as is the
case with the ruder stages of civilization, and
second as a warning 10 others. The ques.
tons to which the subject gives rise may be
classified under the headings of lst, as to the
right of society to iDfic. it; 2nd, as to the Of
fences for which it ought to be decreed; Ord,
as to the expediency of the punishment; and
4th, as to the method or manner employed.
On the first question, it appears that it has
been in vogue from the time that Moses, the
law giver, first proclaimed as part of the
theocratic polity, ian eye for
an eye and a tooth for
TOOTH" down 10 this moment among the
most civilized humanity said TO be carved sin
the image Of the Maker" In state of
nature, it is urged, men have the right to
repel force by force, upon the principle that
self.preservation is the first law of nature
This being SO, society, which is but an aggre-
CATION Of units, must have, II possible, a
greater right from the fact that there has
been an admission and authorization by each
member Of the social system. Reversely, it
Is commended that as life is the gift of God no
man has the right at his will to terminate it
and if the individual has not, then logically
the aggregation of individuals, or society, can
have no derivative right, and it certainly has
no inherent one. This, if we remember
rightly,was Bentham's view. Butin his Essays
on Crimes and Punishments, very forcible
writer, the Marquis Beccaria, emphatically
denies the right to government to thus punish.
de argues that the notion of consent is mere
theory and has no foundation in fact, as in
the case Of foreigner coming into country
and committing on his first entrance what
The laws denominate, and what he does not
Know, TO be criminal act, as for example an
american entering Zulu land. Driven from
'ns doctrine Of consent the upholders Of
sucn law base itupon the right that soci-
ny mas 70 purish those who seek to over
surow us system. AT best it is most seri.
o% question, and whilst valerian rightly
y k0ss'nment insists upon the institution,
