n. Y. Graphic Two murdersrs have
recently been executed in the Tombs,
and three murders have since been COM
mi,ted In this city. whereupon some OF
our esteemed contemporaries eIelaim
that hanging does no good and does not
prevent murder. To this there are two
answers: First. that the principal OBJ
jsct Of hanging is not to prevent murder,
but to rid society Of persons who are no
longer at to live. and secondly. that the
parade made over murdsrsrs, the pstting
Of them while In prison. and the dsitics.
ton OF them after death, f~ascinaies the
imagination Of weak minds and robs a
death on the scaffold Of much Of its ter.
ror. Let the Legislature enact that
death shall follow condemnation very
swiftly. that the execution should be
even moro private than it now is. and
that tho corpse Of the murderer be
buried in q pit OF quicklime at the foot
Of the gallows without any ceremony
and the ,srrors Of capital punishment
will DO so increased that murders will be
ap, to be less frequent.
