der which caused it.
AS to the man, he was an eX-gov-
ernor of the state-having his friends
and his enemies His record as man
citizen, politician and executive has
passed into history; to it has at
tached both praise and blame: we
do not believe in eulogy after death,
g.ar in abuse over the bier of those
IRE sleeping, and therefore to
us, either> are now Inappropriate.
The record OF the man is to he
world unchanged by death, merely
the man changes and places shat re-
cord before the Judgment bar Of
God.
In the conviction and punishment
OF the vile wretch or wretches who
have committed the murder, by
means as diaboiical as their own
minds are depraved, every citizen of
the state has a lively interest and
an equal desire to see the full penalty
of the law melted out. nor should
justice be palliated by any plea or
circumstance.
