Wi publish elsewhere In Thb Etbsikg Tblb graph to-day the oonfesslon of George S. Twit chell, Jr., of the murder of Mrs. Mary K. Ilill. Some each document has long been antici pated by the great body of our people, and has been looked for with great interest. Now that it has oome, and the people are enabled to read how the murder was committed, ao. cording to the theory of the convloted murderer, it will be found that our knowledge is but little if any increased. After carefully exam ining the so called "oonfesslon," we hare come to the conclusion that Twitchell has not spoken the truth, and that, instead of the tale now told being a real statement of facts, It it a thorough fabrication. Iu truth, we think that George S. Twitchell has added an other lie to his list of crimes, and one, too( by which he hopeB to esoape the im pending death sentence. Let us look for a moment at the position of the parties. Twitchell has been convicted and has been aentenoed to death on next Thursday. All efforts to obtain a pardon from the Governor hare failed. His oase has, by a species of legal Jngglery, been brought before the Supreme Court of the United States, and the judges are now deliberating on their action in the matter. There is no possible hope tot Twitchell exoept in the action of the Supreme Court of the United States. To influence the minds of the press is now the great point. Meanwhile, Mrs. Twitchell baa been tried and acquitted. The law of the land prevents any one being more than once put in jeopardy of life or limb. She therefore is safe. Nothing oan again oause her to stand in the criminal dock for the crime of murdering her mother. Then what is a more natural thing to be done by the prisoner than to make ft oonfession which will make the wife the murderer and he the accessory after the fact ? She oannot be injured save in reputation, and her trial has dene all that injury possible. She has nothing to lose, and he everything to gain, and therefore it is not only likely that he would make a confession accusing her of the murder, but we oontemplaUd even more than this. We expeot that she will corrobo rate the oonfession. Now, in this position of affairs, what does Twitchell do T He makes just such a oonfession as would be expeoted. v He says bis wife committed the murder. That he was lying in his room when he heard her crying oat that she had killed her mother. That he then went over to the dining-room and helped her pitch the body out of the window. This is the whole sub stanoe of the oonfession, for we leave out the melodramatic touches of oaths, and all suoh embellishments. '. A man who will side with a murderess of her dear mother will not Jaold very closely to oaths. Let us look at the statement. Is it borne oat by the facts of the cue f Not at all. There are a dozen different facta proven on the trial which show the utter falsity of the "confession." If he was in his room, and the woman committed the murder, how came those spurts of blood on his clothes f How were the sprinkled drops there if he was not where the blood rushed oat at every blowf If his' wife was the murderess and struck the deadly blow, where are the marks on her clothing f .The faot that the wall had semi-olroles of drops of blood proves that the first blow caused the blood to spurt on the person of the murderer aa well as on the wall. How did Mrs. Twitohell esoape all those drops f No. The silent witnesses whieh spoke so strongly on the trial are still as eloquent now, and are proclaiming that the "confession," like the theory of innooenoe adduced on the trial, is a deeply oonoooted falsehood. ' Again, if Mrs. Twitohell set up suoh a crying as to reach the ears of her husband Jn his bed-room, how was it that Mr. Mont gomery, who was in the next house about the 'time of the murder, never heard the oalls f This of itself is a small link against the "con-. fession.". ism u is me Diooa spots; u is the ".sprinkled and the spouted blood on rwitohell which still affords the most convincing and 'undeniable proof of his guilt, and as long as those spots oontinne, so long will every "con fession" be proved false whioh does not do away with them. Looking then at the rela tive position of the two parties, what Is more natural than that the "oonfession" should oome jUBt now to influenoe the Judges of the Supreme Court? audthe flight of Mrs. Twitohell, when she is oertain to be caught, and the corroboration of the "oonfession," would be more drsmatio from a fugitive than from a resident. We doubt, therefore, the "confession." We think it a devioe to influenoe justioe, and believe that the same hand which wrote it murdered the woman on whose bounty he lived, in her own home, with malice aforethought. i " freak of fueirlslaiion. Tog State Senate yesterday enjoyed itself hugely over the Cattle bill, whioh. was finally passed by a Tote of 15 yeas to 10 nays. Mr. Coleman of Lebanon county, who appears to be "the little joker" of the Senate, indulged In a piece Of pleasantry whioh establishes his claim to rank with the Ingenuous McKlnstry, . of the lower house. He offered an amendment, to the report of the proceedings, "sustained this amendment In a halfjecular style, and" here oomes the pith of the whole Joke, the mirabile dictu part of the affair "it was rr oelved by the Senate in the same spirit, and then ruled tut of order !" When it oame to the making up of the reoord to go before the peo ple, Mr. Hensiey was found to be the only Philadelphia member whose manly bosom contained sufnoient courage to prompt him to vote against the iniquitous measure. The oil proverb about giving his due to a oertain individual whose name is offensive to ears and eyes polite, applies to this remarkable case, and we tender Mr. Heuszey our com mendation for onoe. ' In the Home, the principal diversion was iu witnessing the praolioal defeat of a badget of bills most of them "empty" by adverse re ports from committees. Among these were the bills giving a subsidy to a steamship line between Philadelphia aud Bremen, and re quiring all praotitioners of medlolne to be graduates of some medloal college. Sa we cannot anticipate the extension of a helping hand to our foreign oommerce, and are still to be at the mercy of quacks of all degrees. But of course the people who kindly sent the numbers of the State Legislature to Hsrrls burg have no just cause for complaint. It is not to be supposed that any measure of pub lic utility will receive a moment's favorable consideration at the hands of the Harrisbnrg comvdians. RELIGIOUS NOTICES.
