THE MURDERER.

IN cell al the court house is a
rsan who has committed one of the
worst possible offenses against soci-
ETY., that Of taking away the right
to live, which the Creator has given
10 every human being. Sentenced
TO twenty years hard labor because
of the crime, this man who was
brought up in the free out door
life of old Kentucky will spend near
life with no individuality save a
number, without the ompanionShip
and loving sympathy Of those he
loves, in narrow quarters where no
sound of the busy aud progressive
outside world will reach, with every
man hand against him and stigma
tied with one of the worst epithets
in our vocabulary, that of murderer.
How comes it, that this man, who
is in his prime, at an age when man
physically and mentally should be at
his best, is in these dire straits. Is
it because Davis is without moral
sensibility? This cannot be. A man
who can admire flowers and nature
and feel the refining touches of SEM
timent such as he has displayed up
on several occasions is not brute.
Is it because OF inherent criminal in
stincts? We doubt that too. The
only conclusion We can arrive at then
is that he was according to the tas-
timony given the court, delirious
with whisky, when he extinguished
the spark Of life in his victim. DAVIS
little thought Jhat he was observed
when he fired the fatal shot. There
was no one pr sent at that dramatic
moment. But he eye Of d Power
higher than mans was fixed upon
him and the tragedy was witnessed.
lie little though that the eye OF MS
God, which does not permit even 4
sparroy TO fall without His notice
was watching his movements, and
tha->sooncr or later he would pay the
penalty OF his outraged Creator.
Soon the closing act in the drama
will be completed. The curtain will
close upon the scene and the actor
remove his mask showing a face
lined with regret for the past, and
sorrow for the fntnre. The wife and
relatives of the prisoner will pursue
their various paths in life without
him, and he will be as a member
that has been lost from the family
circle. TO be always alluded to as one
that is dead, in tones tinged with sor-
row, but above reproach. Davis Will
soon pass from our midst. but The
tragic picture his life presents to Us
will be hard to forget.
