Gnat and the Inaucuml
At thfi crowning of Ulysses the Ist,
on th 4th of A/arch, last, at Washing
ton, w find in hia addreaa to hia sub
jects something very much like hia
Grecian namesake who, according to
Homer, "yoked a horse and bull to*
gather, and plowed the eeaabore,
where be sowed salt instead of barley,"
to blindfold bis aubjecta, as to hia teal
design. We have not time to review
the "cunningly devised fable," and
weak attempt to imitate Queen Victo
ria in her addrem to the House of
Lords and Commons, and will only
refer to this presidential conundrum
rehearsed before the'radical convoca
tion, on the memorable idea of -Varch,
new style-
He commences his address in true
Cromwell style by saying that "he
was called a second time to act" or
role the nation and that he will rule
it "in the same direction in the fu
ture." Hue is the pledge. Look
out, our right to rote and the ballot
box is to be under the control of his
Janisariss and the bayonet; and "in
the same direction" as the elections
were held In Philadelphia, New
York, New Orleans, South Carolina,
dx., under his decree. Hbw thank
ful we should be to this radical sover
eign, for the privilege of voting under
his mandate ; and so well pleased
with his acts during the last fbur
years, he declares his "best efforts
will be given in the same direction in
the future." Nepetism and gift-tak
ing are always to be in order under
his reign. Here is a paragraph in
the message that requires a Daniel to
interpret, vis:
The theory of government changes
with the general progress. Now that
the telegraph is made available for
communicating thought, together with
rapid travel by steam, all parts of a
continent are made contiguous for all
purposes of government, and commu
nication between the extreme limits
of the country made easier than it was
throughout the old thirteen States at
the beginning of oar national exist
ence.
"The theory of government chang
es with the general progress," so says
Ulysses. Is the theory and principles
proclaimed by the "old thirteen states"
in the declaration of independence to
be changed—is the Union of the
states to be consolidated, and an elec
tive monarchy to be established,
guarded by a standing army ? Bead
the whole paragraph and tell us what
it means He next weeps over the
negro Baex and the 8t Domingo job
—the bargain was spoiled—he tells as
the annexation "was rejected constitu
tionally" and therefore he submitted.
How condescending in our Ulysses I
He next refers to "the effects of the
late cruel war have been to free the
slave and make him a citizen"—be is
cot possessed of all his rights, but
what is lacking be does not point out
but he does Jell where the Negro sta
tus is to be in social life, by saying,
"that social equality, is not a subject
to be legislated Qpon nor shall I ask
any thing to be done to advance the
social states of the colored man, ex
cept give him a fair chance to devel
ops what there is of good in him."
litis is the most sensible sentence in
the whole message, and easily under
stood, to keep de colored gem man till
be has civil rights; if he votes the
radical ticket, be can enlist in the
army to fight against white men,
and play scullion to the officers, but
neither as cadets or midshipmen, are
they to look fcr social equality ; that
has been tried, they have had "a fair
chance to develops what is good in
them," and it can not be seen, and
"social equality is not a subject to be
legislated upon, nor shall I ask any
thing to be dooe to advance the social
status of the colored man." This is
plain talk for theDonglases the Days,
the Elliots, Ac., —there is your status, i
and legislation to force social equality 1
can not help yon, so long as rant is '
President, and to this complexion has ,
the colored gem man at last come un- <
der their President, who can bnild up
and tear down at pleasure.
Again, will the high tariffites let us ]
know the meaning of the sentence in '
the President's meenge, vis, "to the 1
establishment of our commerce and a (
share in the carrying trade upon the i
ocean—to the encouragement of such 1
manufacturing industries as can be 1
economically puraned in this country
to the end that the exports of bom<
products and industries may pay Jot
our imports ; the only sure method oi
returning to permanently maintain
ing a specie basis." Is this a tariff for
revenue with incidental protection or
what is the plan or tariff that is to
make our exports pay for our import*
and secure a specie basis—do tell, en
lighten us, gentlemen, as to what the
President means in this great Penn
sylvania question.
Drawing to the conclusion of his
message he casts his eye to the time
"when I shall be relieved from respon
sibilities that at times are almost ov
erwhelming, and from which I have
scarcely had respite since the event of
the firing upon Fort Sumpter, in
April 1861, to the present day."
Did the President sleep with Colfax
on the night of the 3rd, that he was
so bold in assertion—regardless of
Jhcta? what does be call respite? was
•pending bis summers at the Presi
dent's cottage on the seashore "over
whelming responsibilities?" lie
could not find time to leave Tom -Mur
phy's gift cottage for u dnv during
the season of many months, in disre
gard of his official duties at Washing
ton, for the vain purpose of display
ing his fast horses, fine livery, rooeiv
the smiles aud plaudits of speculators,
custom-house embettler* and their ac
companying gifts, which he calls "ov
erwhelming* responsibilities," while he
has promised "to act in the same di
rection in the future." Therefore
nepotism aud gift-takiug are to bo the
order of his administion with the
same effect as heretofore.
The record of death* by the receut
•uow storm in Minnesota, it n fearful
one. The governor of the slate haa
aent a message to the legislature, giv
ing an account of the money speut by
him to the suffering as authorised by
an act appropriating $5,000, from
which we copy the following tearful
statistic* :

It i* probable, however, that the entire
toes ef stack, could it be known, would at
least be halt a* much again as these
figures.
How to do It *
It has got to be a notorious fact,
that no Senator, congressman, legisla
tor, or other corrupt government offi
cial, can be brought to punishment for
bis sins, because whitewashing has
come to be the order of the day, and
the thieves and plunderers of the peo
ple go unpunished for their crimes.
The country is becoming disgraced by
such a history as was made at Wash
ington the present winter, and if those
in power, who have the authority to
bring evil doers to accouut, will not
do their duty in the premises, we think
that the people might set an example
by taking the whitewashes and white
washed into their own care, and ad
ministering justice according to their
judgment of the deserts of public
rogues. If, occasionally, a recreant
legislator or notorious public defaul
ter who has dodged the law, or who
may have received a congressional
whitewashing, were treatedjto a coat
of tar or made to experience the pleas
ures of a short ride ou a rail, we think
it would have a wholesome effect upon
these recreant and unpunished ser
vants of the peaple.
Up in Winnipeg, in Canada, we see,
the speaker of the house was dressed
in a coat of tor, a few nights ago, for
ruling in the speaker s chair which the
people thought was unwarranted and
which went against their interests and
which was to relieve the Hudson Bay
Comp. of one-third of their usual tax
ation. This thing of playing into the
bands of corporations all the time, by
oar law-makers, should be stopped ;
but all experience proves that there is
no hope for a reform by applying to
oar legislative halls, where the evil is
done.
What then are the people to do?
Will it not become a question whether
they themselves must not deal out
punishment directly to their immedi
ate representatives when they prove
notoriously recreant to their oaths?
This might be revolution, but where
there is persistent wrong, revolutions
often prove the only remedy.

Guard the Sinking Fund.
The Pottsville Daily Transcript, of
Bth inst., in speaking of the Sinking
Fund, pays a merited tribute to our
member, Mr. Orvis:
The proverbial recklessness of State leg
illation is well known, and thui far all at
tempts at reform hare been futile. When
ever a particular axe is to be ground, in
the interest o£a corporation or monopoly,
or any scheme is devised by which a large
sum of money is to be taken from the
treasury, the legislation necessary to ac
complish the end desired is rushed through
regardless of whether there is in the State
coffers sufficient funds to meet the demand
without trenching upon the sinking fund,
which notwithstanding a constitutional in
hibition, is continually being tampered
with. A case in point came up in the
House ef Representatives on Thursday last
while tbat body had under consideration
the Centennial Appropriation bill. Mr.
Orvis, the member from Centre, and one
of the clearest headed and ablest men in
the House, offered an amendment or pro
viso to the first section of the hill, as fol
lows :
Provided, That no portion of the reve
nues of the Commonwealth assigned to
thesmkiag fucd under the Constitution
A tb *P£ <rrui#oi of the act approved
1868, entitled An act to establish
the Payment of the pub
lic debt, shall in any event be used to
meet the appropriation herein named.
This fair and equitable amendment, in
tended solely to protect the tax-payers of
the Commonwealth frem the invasion of a
fund sacredly guarded nd set apart by
the Constitution for a specific purpose, did
not meet the approbation of the "ring,"
compeeed in the main of the Philiadelpbia
member, whose palms are in a stale of
acute itching for the hundreds of thousands
of dollars which the appropriation in ques
tion will draw from the State Treasury.
But ia spite of the honied accents of
Messrs. Mitchell and Mahon, the first a
representative from Tioga, the last from
Franklin county, Bisection where they an
nualty look fer huge appropriations for
private benefits, Mr. Orvis insisted upon
his amendment, in which he was sustained
by the House, in a vote of 61 ayes to 41!
nays This was accomplished in the face
of the opposition of the burly speaker, El
liott, who, as is his wont, whenever the in
terests of the "ring" are at stake, left the
speaker's chair to filibuster against the
amendment. The result showed that ev
en in the weak and venal chambers of our,
Bute Legislature there are a mumber of
honest and wmcitntiQui man who, wku j
s bold and aMivo leader, backed by abili
ty and pluck, lake* a firm stand, are ready
rally around and sustain him. We
congratulate the distinguished member
front old Centre on hi* handsome victory,
and trust it is but the beginning of a series
each more brilliant than its predecessor.
Tito Centennial Appropriation.
The bill appropriating $500,000 to
the Centennial, passed the house, yeas
88, naya 87. Mr. Orvis opposed the
hill. Wo extract the following front
the closing proceedings :
Mr. Orvis moved to amend by add
ing to the first section of the bill sub
stituted the following:
ProvitUd, That no portion of the
revenues of the Commonwealth unsign
ed to the Sinking Fund hy the consti
tution, aud by the provision* of an act
approved April '2'2, 185S, entitled An
act to establish a sinking fund for the
payment of the public debt, shall in
any event be used to tunke the appro
priation herein made.
Mr. Mitchell. I siuiply wish to
say that that ameudment implies a re
flection upon the public officers ot the
State. I nder the law as it now
stands, they have no authority to ap
propriate any of the moneys appropri
ate to the sinking Aiud for this or any
other purpose.
Mr. Mahon. The Constitution of
the State itrelf prohibits the appropri
ation of these moneys out of the sink
ing fund. Why then tackle this on
the bill ? It is surplusage. It amounts
to nothing. It don't hurt the bill, nor
does it do it any good.
Mr. On is. It is a fact of which
gentlemen are aware, that notwith
standing this, more than four hundred
thousand dollars of the sinkiug fund
have been taken out oflt, and I pro
pose by this amendment to prohibit
the tiuancial officers of the State tak
ing anything out of that fund to meet
this appropriation.
I know they ought not to do it for
any purpose ;"but we make appropria
tions here without making any provi
sion for meeting them, aud they are
obliged to take money out of the Sink
ing Fund in order to meet those appro
priations. Hy the report made by the
State Treasurer, in answer to a resolu
tion passed by this House, asking for
the receipts and expenditures of the
Sinkiug Fund, the fact appears that
for the past six years, year by year,
we have made appropriations beyond
the ordinary receipts of the Treasury ,
and thecefore they have been year by
year taking money out of the Sinking
Fund to meet the" appropriations that
have beeu made. I propose, in this
case, that it shall not t>e done unless
a majority of this House declare that
it shall be done, in violation of the
Constitution.
Ou the question, Will the House
agree to the amendment of Mr. Orvis
it was carried by 51 yeas to 42 nays.
Let Us AH Start Fair.
In a recti)t debate iu the Constitu
tional Convenliou, upon enlarging the
Senatorial representation of Philadel
phia, we find the following:
Judge Black, of York, was iu favor
of doing away with the Senatorial lim
it for large cities, and urged that the
other counties of the State should now
do unto Philadelphia as they would
have her do unto any one of them if
the case was reversed After alluding
to the injustice aud invidious charac
ter of this distinction as to Philadel
phia, he proceeded to answer the ar
gument of Judge Woodward ou the
previous day iu favor of continuing
the limitation as to the number ofSen
ators. That geutleman, as a reason
against any increase of our represen
tation, had complained that there were
wicked men living in Philadelphia,
and had complimented the tillers of
the soil by telling them that they were
much better and more righteous than
those who inhabit the city. He
(Black; being included in the former
class, was willing to own the soft im
peachmeut. [Laughter.] Still, he
thought it partook of the spirit of the
Pharisee for a gentleman from the
country to say to the inhabitants of the
city, "stand aside ; I am holier than 1
thou." He thought the wickeduesa j
complained of should be punished not
by injection into the Constitution a
sort of "bill of pains and penalties,"
but by dealing with each individual
offender. His friend (Mr. Woodward)
with all his denunciation of everything
that was not good, as was perfectly
natural with him and very proper,
ought to be willing to consider the un
convicted as standing upon a level
with himself, and that was perhaps as
high a level as any man could reach.
[JLaughter.] Another charge against
Philadelphia was that the people were
a set of ialers and did not work, in oth
er words, that they were not engaged
in productive industry. In answer to
this the speaker stated as the result of
his observation, tbat the community of
Philadelphia was one of the most in
dustrioos he had ever known, and
tbat some one had evidently taken ad
vantage of the youth and inexperience
of the geutleman (Mr. Woodward) to
impose upon bis credulity. [Laugh
ter.]
Mr. Woodward here interrupted to
say that Judge Black was clearly
drawing upon his imagination for the
facts, EDd that in attributing to him
(Woodward) the allegation that the
people of Philadelphia did not work,
his imagination had got the better of
his judgment. The speaker added
tbat he had made no such assertion,
but that what he had asserted was that
the grand original source of wealth
was in the agricultural sections, and
that Philadelphia could not produce
of that which was requisite for the
purpose enough to make a loaf of
bread.
Mr. Black's ten minutes here expir
ing, his time we* extended five min
utes, when he added that he had noth
ing further to say since his friend bad
taken back what he had said. Instead
of being imposed upon by any body
who took advantage of him, the gen
tleman had been the victim of his own
imagination, as he himself called it,
in supposing that a people who work
ed at one business, supposing it to be
honest and lawful, were less entitled
to protection than any other, so that
the error of the gentlemen after his
explanation, was just as bad as it had
been before it. After replying to the
alleged assumption of Mr. Woodward
that there seemed to be some kind of
conflict between the industrial inter
ests of the city and State, and urging
that if this was correct, there was a
greater reason for placing each upon
an equality in representation that
there might be a fair fight in an open
field, Mr. Black made the following
digression in illustration of this por
tion of his remarks: Iu a certain lo
cality upon the Jersey coast, the peo
ple were in the habit of plundering
the many wrecks cast ashore from
time to time. A clergyman of the
place bad repeatedly attempted to dis
suade them from the practice, and on
one occasion, tvhile preaching to them
upon the enormity of the sin, from
the text, "Thou shalt not steal," and
when in the most eloquent part of his
sermon, some one cried out —"There's
• wreck on 4 the court 1" Every indi
vidual in (ho congregation rose up ami
rushed toward* (n iloor. The ciergy •'
ninn lagged lliein to *(op only for n
moment, while ho would say but four
word*. Ho succeeded iu, regaining
their attention, and in tho meantime
ho wi getting pretty near tho door,
i and had his coat buttoned up, and
when they had waited in exportation
of hearing "tho four worda," these
were tho worda he uttered—"Let's all
etart fair." [Long contiuued Laugh-'
tor.J Tho s|>enker thought thai tnia
would not be a liad rule to apply iu
regulating representation. If tnia was
to be a rare for our privilegea, our
righla and our other advantagoa, he
would aay "leta all atart fair," and al
low every city aud county to have that
amount of repreaentatiou in the latgia
lature which might bo dut to the pop
ulation iu each caj|e.
UtHlurUou of Taxation
A step lias been taken at last aay*
the /Wt'of, in the legislature for a re
peal of some of the taxes that bear ex
ceedingly hard upon enterprise and
industry in this state, Seuator Wal
lace's bill proposing a repeal of the
taxes on horses aud cattle will remove
a burden that is severely felt. The
report of the Auditor General shows
that the revenues from taxes on per
sonal property amounted last year to
upwards of a half million of dollars, a
large portion ofwhich we re derived from
horses and cattle. Senator Strang's
amendment contemplates a more
sweeping reductiou of revenues, by re
pealing the taxes on the net
earnings of ooiporations liable to tax
on capital slock, and on the gross re
ceipts of railroad, canal, and transpor
tation companies. Tbe tax on cor
poration stocks amounted last year to
91,308,025.25, and the tax on the net
earnings of corporations produced at
the same time 9348,048.8u. The tax
on gross receipts for 1872 amounted to
9457.631.18.
This tax was imposed in 1866 to
meet the war loan, and took the place
of the tax on real estate, which was
repealed by the same get. Both these
taxes it is now proposed to repeal. It
was said with justice on the floor of
the senate on 12 inst., that the neces
sity for the tax had ceased as the war
debt, which it was designed to meet,
has been liquidated.
This proposed repeal of taxes would
reduce the revenues of the state treas
ury to the extent of a million a year.
The bill was originally a vehicle for
removing a burden that is severely
felt by the agricultural interests, aud
by these amendments it may be made
to encourage manufacturing and mi
ning euterprise|which is repreased by
the weight of an ingenious scheme of]
double and tripple taxation laid on
stocks, on net earnings, and |on gross
receipts. In many instances capital
and enterprise have been scared from
the state by the display of the schedule
of the auditor general's office, and
have found in New Jersey and Dela
ware the protection of more benign
laws and sounder policy.
Excitement in Winnipeg
Tarring tke Speaker of the House.
Fort Garry, Manitoba, March 10.
—lmmense excitement prevails in
Winnipeg owning to the fact that it
wassougnt to pass a bill through the
Legislature which would have let the
Hudson Bay Company and other
landed proprietors off with the pay
ment of one third the usual taxation
on their lands. An indignation meet
ing was held and a)committee appoint
ed to plead at the bar of the House,
whither they were followed bv 400
people. The bill was ultimately thrown
out on a technicality. On account of
the ruling of the Speaker be waa de
coyed from hie house at midnight and
administered a coat of tar. The
Government has offered SI,OOO re
ward for the conviction of the perpe
trators. Fearing further breeches of
the peace a military guard has been
placed over the Parliament House.

i Salisbury, Md., March B.—On Friday
i afternoon George Hall, age 18, shot dead
Amelia Hpockley, age 14, whileon her way
home from school in company with other
children. Hall was courting Amelia, and
had written her a letter which she had 1
failed to answer, saying she had not 1
had time. It is reported that ho had lain j
in wait the' previous day, but Amelia be
ing accompanied by ber brother, the deed 1
was deferred. Both belong to respectable
families living noar Salisbury. The mur
derer is still at large, but an active pursuit J

The Murderer Commits Suicide.
Crlsfiold, Md., March B.—A freight trair
bound south, to-night, ran over and killed
a man, supposed to be the murderer of th<
girl Amelia Spockley, who was shot yee
lorday near Salisbury. The train was go>

The Funeral and the Inquest.
Salisbury, Md., March 9.—The ftineral
of Miss Sbockley, the victim of the murdei
of Friday last, took place this mornier.
About 1,000 people attended. The coro
ner's jury rendered a verdict of death at
the hand of George W. Hall. The evi
dence shows that the deceased left schedl
accompanied by feur small children.
About 100 yards frsm the school, Hall met
her, and after some conversation about a
letter, he asked one of the children if Miss
Hhockley's brother Elijah, age 16, was at
school. Receiving a negative reply he
turned to Miss Shockley and said he was
going to shoot her. She replied "Pshaw,
George Hal), you can't frighten me."
Hall then directed a little girl standing be
side Miss Shockley to get out of the way
and deliberately raised his gun and fired.
The load took effect just under the shoul
der-blade and entered the heart, when the
girl exclaimed, "Oh, Lord 1" and fell.
Isaac 8. Adams, the schoolmaster, on be
ing informed of the murdor hastened to
the scexe, and found t£>o girl lying in the
read, in the agony of death, and she died
in a few moments.

Fashion which givee to the ladies so
wide a scepe far the indulgence of taste
and skill in the devising of elegant made*
of personal adornment, not only give* be
tides n wider scepe to proportionate abuse
of them, but also deniea in a great measure
theee opportunities for either to the other
sex. Of those masculine puppiee, who, ig
noring the fundamental attributes ef their
sex—physical strength and manliness ef
character, and borrowing from the sillieet
of women their sillmst end moet reprehen
sible practices, smear themselves with
paint and enamel, end imprison them
selves in corsets, we bnve nothing to say :
we leave ibem to the well merited contempt
they invariably gain from all wjio are In
any way their superiors; these, we are
happy to say, being vastly in tbe majori
ty
Gentlemen in general can, we believe,
be acquitted of most all the fashionable
lollies, with the cxceplien of hair dye and
tight boots. Tbe use of the former, as it*
' results are not injurious to the general
' health, when no violent mineral poison*
enter into the compoeii ion, may be regar
ded more as a matter of taste than any
thing else; and if a man prefers to run the
' risk of utterly ruining his hair and beard,
rather than to leave it at nature bestowed
it upon him, wo tee oo other alternative
'than Ic let him have hit own way in the
matter, regardless sf the consequence*.
With repect to wearing light boots, bow
ever, a* the result* are more disastrous, we
1 cannot pas* it by to easily. We do not in
tend to add anything to the many excel
lent thffgt that have already been said
' concerning the evil effects thnl boots atixe
or so too small produce upon the health,
comfort, business capacities, and temper of
the wearer. We would only beg leave to
remind all who thus immolate themselves,
under the impression that a ;*mall foot is
necessarily the object of universal admira
tion, that tbe donkey is generally conceded'
to have a smaller and more delicate hoof,
than the horse, which would undoubtedly
establish bis claim to superior beauty, if it |
were net far the unfortunate length ef his
j ears. Wo would also, in this connection,
assure those gentlemen who are determin
ed to have a small foot at any coet, that the
prico of the article to them will very likely
be the>ame as was imposed upon Midas j
for the possesion which he coveted.—om

gists.
The opinion has baen advanced that
should the people vote agaiast the grant
ing of license, that all could soil without a
5 license. This view U not founded in ltw
_ and would subject the offender to nil
the penalties that any one selling without
; license is now liable to. The only part of
} tho law in any way affected is that author
ising the courts to grant licenses. The
penalties for the unlicensed sale of liquor
are fixed by the act of March 22nd, 1867,
I section 4, vis:
"If| any . person, after the passage of
this act, shall tell spirituous or vinous
■ liquors, domestic wines, malt or brewed
. liquors, without having obtained a license
authorising him so to do, such person
shall on conviction, in the court of quar
tor sessions, be fined, far the first offense,
in any sum not less thaa fifty or more than
two hundred dollars, and far the second or
any subsequent offense such shall be fined
not less than one hundred dollars, and in
the discretion of said court be imprisoned
in the county jail sot lest thaa thirty nor
moro than days: Provided, That
nothing in this act shall be construed to re*
peal the provisions of the act of Assembly
passed March 81, 1866, relative to talet by
druggists or a pot/neon**."
Mow should the people vote against li
cense, the only persons who could legally
sell liquor would b a druggists or apotA tea
riot. Let us see what tho law is on that
question. The law of March 81, 1866,
above referred to says :
Sac. 6. That the provision of this act,
shall not eitend to druggists and apothe
caries who shall sell unmixed aleohol or I
compound, or >ell any admixture of I
wine, alcohol, spirituous, or brewed liquors 1
in the preparation of medicines, or upon
prescription of a regular practicing phy- I
tieianProvided, That no druggist, or j
1 apothecary, shall tell or keep for tale, un* I
dr ay iwtw itmiChlßipftfr <
lion or admixture a* aforcaaid, that may
bo used a* a beveiaga, and any violation

deemed guilty of a misdemeanor and liable
to conviction and punishment as afore
•aid."
This will be the last chance of any thirs
ty individual to procura the coveted
"spirit<," should no license win the day
And on that there is only one solitary
chance. The druggist cannot 'sell spiritu
ous, vinaus, malt or brewed liquor, mixed
•r pure, to be used a beverage, without
subjecting himself to prosecution. But ac
cording to the foregeing 6th sectien, the
druggist can sell unmixed alcohol, spiritu
uu or brewed liquors in the preparation of
medicines, er upon the written proscrip
tion of a regular practicing physician
This will be the last hope. A "regular
practicing physician" can arm the patient
with a written prescription" for medicinel
to cure any pain a dinner of "sour-k rout!
and pork" may have occasioned. The
"family" physician may find his practice:
greatly enlarged, and the druggist his
sales of "stimulants" very much increased.
Weak stomachs may need a little "aid" to
digest a nulritreus dinaer of roast beef and
poUtoas, which nothing hut the family
physician and the druggist can give.—LSH

EUTHANASIA
v Hume of the leading English journals are
gravely discussiag the merits ef a doctrine
. avowed by a limited class of philosopher*
in Great Britain thai suicide i sometime*
a duty, in such cases, for instance, as when
a person is suffering under n painful and <
incurable diicasc. A Mr. Lionel A, Tol
leiuacbe appears to be the leading advo
cate of the principle that a man has a right
to die when he chooses, and Mr. Tolle-
P uiacbe has found an earnest disciple ia
Proleasor Francis W. Newman, who is
writing letters to the press enthusiestically
supporting the theory that man are justi
fied ia substituting an easy death, accom
plished by their own means, for lingering
torments and final extinction frogi natural
causes. Professor Newman insists that
this idea is somewhat widely spreed among
cultivated persons, but-suppressed in con
sequence of the odium ettaching to the
j profession of such opinions.
But the Ruthenasianisu, as they are
called, are not satisfied with limiting the
j advantages of Eutfaanasia, or easy death,
to those who choose to avail themselves of
I the discoveries ef science for prematurely
* ending their own sufferings in this vale of
tears. Thry alto imitu>t thst under cer
tain condition* it would be an excellent
thing to giv o their neighbor* the benefit of
a painless exit from a world which they
' cannot enjoy and which ha* no particular
u*e for them Prof. Newman specially
: object* to the prejudice in favor of natur
, al death* which *o olten result* in causing
•eriou* injury to the health of young peo
ple through their ince**ant watching at a
ick bed merely in order, a* he *ayr, "that
an old person may miserably linger a few
month* longer " This view of the subject
is not original, however. Some of the
j Polynesian tribe* of savage* have been in
■ the habit of killing off their old and useless
j relation* from time immemorial, although
they w ate not sufficiently advanced in civ
lixation to adopt to pretty a name a* Eu
thanasia for the practice, and having n*
scientific knowledge at their disposal to af
ford them painless method* of shortening
j life, they were not particular a* to the
j meant employed to affoct their object so
! long as they were effectual. But the Poly
nesians practised their method* of getting
! rid of old persons from selfish economical
I motives, for they not only killed but etc
their superannuated relations, while the
! British Eutbeneisanist* profess to be gov
erned in their opinions only by the loftiest
considerations of humanity.
It is evident that if the unrestricted rigbt
of e man toabruptily terminate his own ex
istence or that of e neighbor whose lunger
sojourn on earth he might deem undesira
ble should be generally admitted, the
practice of Euthanasia would be liable to
! abuse in the bands of person* deflcieal in
| moral principle. This feet is fully recog
nised by the advocate* of easy death in
Ureal llritain, who propose to procure for
, the practice the saaclion of ibo lew under
fixed coodilioaa. Prof. Newman expresses
i himself freely on this subject, suggesting
' the nature of the precautions which should
be taken to guard sgainst objectionable
' use of Eulhamuiastic agents, and plainly
j says he cannot see "how any one can fear
| abuse if death were legalised under delib
erately planed restrictions."
Mr. Tollemache is also anxious that his
views not be misunderstood on
| this important question, and in a letter to
the Spectator he assert* distinctly that be
disapproves of killing e dying man with
j out the dying man's express consent; but,
| this consent obtained, be thinks the doc
, tors should furnish the mean* for securing
' the desired result. "It is open to me," he
; says, "to hold that if certain processes
were gone through—such as the formal ex
' animation of the sufferer by a public officer
before witnesses, and an affidavit signed
by them to the effect that the dying man
j consent was given, without external pre*-
• <ure— Euthanasia would be no more liable
.toabuse or fraud—there certainly would
I not be e stronger metive— than in the case
|of aw ill, end no more demoralizing than
capital punishment. But it may be quite
consistently bold that, where these safe
guards cannot be obtained, the sufferer
must be aliowed to linger on. Half e loaf,
says the proverb, is better than no breed."
Prof Newman, however, appear* to take
a broader view of the subject, for, al
though he fever* legal restriction* regard
ing the practice of Euthanasia, be seem* to
consider the petient's consent only e dceir
able, not en indispensable formality. But
he uy t, "to fear to leave a human beinj
to perish alone, especially at hi* command
when else other* will perish uselessly fo
him, seems to me like the case, which verj
often occurs in sickness, where tending thi
sick ruins the health of those around him.'
The Professor also expresses a desirs U
have the commissioners who visit lunatic
asylums called en authoritatively for theii
sincere opinions on the subject, which cer<
tainly hints at the application of Euthan
asia to lunatics, who would be incapable
of giving a legal assent to their own sum
mary extinction.
It is doubtful if the practice of Eulhana
sia ever becomes popular in private life,
hut there is something to be said in favor
of its advantage* being considered by our
public mm. It has long been a univer
sally accepted principle that private inter
ests must be subordinated to the public wel
fare, and there is no doubt that in soveral
instances that we might name if Euthana
sia had been applied in season to some of
our most prominent men in office it would
have been of great advantage to their rep
utations as well as to the country at large.
Who can doubt that if some judicious
friend had Kuthanatised Mr. Colfax be
fore he bad time to involve himself in a
labyrinth of perjury in order to prove that
he did not lie last summer about his Cred
it Mobilier stock it would have beon hot
ter for that Christian statesman both here
and hereafter T And probably nobody
will be found to deny that if the President
before entering his first terra of office had
Kuthanatised his whole tribe of useless re
lations he would have been more respec
ted and the public would now be better off,
hough the most of the relations might be
ess comfortably situated than they are.
