A grim commentary upon the folly OF

the attitude Of the law toward This yery
criminal who had lust taken the lire of
the president. The people would have
torn him limb from limb II it had not
invoked IN his behalf. So far from his
decd being committed on behalf OF the
people against the government. the gov
ernmint was obliged at once to exert its
stant death at the hands Of the people
Moreover' his deed worked not the

might grow' would work only in the di-
