rer seem venunraegtnnen ness oo}

‘thoughtful men among us exclaim against
What they call the morbid humanity otf
those who treat offenders with a foolish
and a dangerous lenity, Nature, say
they, affords us a most instructive analo-
gy as to the infliction of punishment.
The cffender against her laws is sure to
suffer a punishment proportioned to the
magnitude of the offence. She yindicates
the majesty of her laws by protracted tor-
tures and painful, lingering deaths. ‘The
violators of these cannot possibly escape
deserved chastisement. Repentance
avails them nothing, and reform honestly
and faithfully carried out, but mitigates
their sufferings. She posseses, and what
is more uses daily, instruments of torture
more cruel and more deadly than man in
the most sivage ages has ever invented.
Aches and pains, gout, rheumatism, fe-
vers, ague,leprosy, sores,delirium, hypo-
condria, madness—these are the punish-
ments, some of them worse than death,
that outraged nature inflicts on those
who break her laws. Yet no one dare
-eall nature cruel. ‘The severity which
she uses is a just, a necessary, and
a merciful severity. Equally just, ne-
cessary and merciful, the defenders of
capital punishment contend, is the se-
verity which ordains that whoso sheds
man’s blood, by man shall his blood be
shed. If, however, it can be proved that
the abolition of capital punishment re-
sults in diminishing crime instead of in-
creasing it, then the arguments in its
favor lose all their force, tor it must al-
ways be remembered that revenge is not
an element of judicial pnnishment. What
society looks to in punishing offenders is
its own preservation and the reformation
of the offender. Preservation first, and
then, if possible, reformation, but never
retaliation, © Capital punishment from its
very nature, precludes the possibility of
the accomplishment of the latter of these
two aims; and if it can beshown that the
former cin be secured without having
recourse to it, then there does not remain
a single argument in favor of its perpetu-
ation. ‘The question, then, narrows itself
down to this: Can socicty afford to do
without the death penalty ? Many wise,
humane; and thoughtful men answer em-
phatically yes. Many other equally wise,
humane, and thoughtful, answer quite as
emphatically, though sorrowfully, no.

In the United States, where most of the
great political and social problems of the
day are in the process of being solved,
the experiment of the abolition of capital
punishment is being tried, and, it is said,
so far with the best effects. ‘The death
penalty has been abolished in Maine,
Michigan, Rhode Island and Minnesota.
Violent crimes, we have the authority ot
the New York Zribune tor stating, have
been less frequent in those States since
than before its abolition. From what we
have read on the subject, we gather that
hanging is like flogging: the more you
do of it, the more you must do, The tre-
quency of its infliction lessens its terrors.
It has a hardening and a brutalizing ef-
fect on those whom it is destined to ter-
rify. Writing of the death penalty,
Horace Greeley’s utterance is :—** Let it
follow after the stake, the rack, the wheel;
after the chain gang, the slave pen, the
auction block ; after tic burning orgies
ard tortures of the American savage ;
and let our children read of it with a
shudder as one of the ghastly, grovilish
horrors which went out with slavery.”

Bank Meeting.

The annual general meeting of the Share-

diner, requested the stock holders not to vote

David Thompson, of Tryon, while attending
a threshing mill, in some way unknown get-
ting his hand enta gled in the teeth of the
thresher, was drawn into it so that his arm
was deliberately crushed to pieces up to the
shoulder. Amputation being impracticable,
after lingering fur twenty-three hours, during
which time he muintuined the full use of his
swental faculties, death ended his sufferings.
Hlis last moments were cheered by the conti-
dent hope of a blisstul immortality. Lis loss
is deeply felt in the community, especially in
the Church, of which he was a consistent;
member and an efficient elder, lis remains
were followed to their resting pl: ce on Monday
