The execution Of the four murderers at
Sius Sing Yesterday removes all rational doubts
% to the expediency Of the employment Of
electricity as the means Of inficting capital
Punishment The bungling Of the Kemmler
execution at Auburn last August was not re-
peated. On the contrary. the warden and
his assistants had made every preparation for
the event and it was pronounced by those who
witnessed it a complete success from a legal, a
scientific or humanitarian point of view
People may differ AZ to the value Of capital
punishment as deterrent from crime They
do not differ as to the propriety of having such
punishment when inflicted imposed with the
least cruelty either to the offender himself or
to those who may be cognizant of his sufferings.
Besides that, the greater number of persons
will favor the infection of punishment in a
manner to impress most deeply the majesty of
the law upon all disposed to hold it in small
regard. The horrible Encouragement per-
hsps necessarily incident upon the mode Of
execution by hanging, certainly the usual
characteristic of that mode as practiced in this
county, lei humane minds 20 invoke the aid

since the Kemmler execution in lessening the
horrors attendant upon such an event. for ex-
ample the speedier renewal of the current

minimizing of flesh burning. Now if at the next
