Xhe "Confession" of Murderer.
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.
