A CTRIOUS PARALLEL.

There is a curious resemblance between the
general outlines of the Maxwell case, brought
to a conclusion yesterday by the execution OF
the murderer and that Of Lawson, who was
hanged several years since in England for the
murder of his brother-in-law by poison.
strong effort was made by the friends and
relatives Of Lawson in this country to obtain
retrieve, and Mr.. Frelinghuysen, who was at
the time Secretary of State, was induced to
address the British Government, requesting
delay on the ground of new evidence. The
request was, in accordance with routine re-
ferred to the English Home Secretary, who re-
fused to interfere with the operation OF the
law. and Lawson was executed. In both these
cases the criminal had received medical ed
ucation, and apparently owed to professional
knowledge the suggestion which eliminated
in murder.
In Maxwelrs case the British Government
sought delay at the last moment and here too
there was an intimation of fresh evidence
though neither here nor in the Lawson case
was any specific statement made as to the
nature or bearing Of the alleged new testi'
