The punishment OF death, as the penalty
for murder, has prevailed from the cal liest
times 10 all parts Of the world. Ia most
nations treason or rebellion against lawful
government hasalso been thus punished and
in England and elsewhere, down to a very
recent period, the same has been true Of
counterfeiting, forgery, mail robbery, and
several other crimes. In some OF the
Southern States at the present time bur
glary is punishable by hanging. The man
ner Of execution varies greatly. Military
criminals, in modern times, are usually
shot. In civil ADMINISTRATIONS the modes
most prevalent have been decapitaiion
