On Thursday last, within the walls
of Moyamensing prison, iu tho city of
Philadelphia, "the gallows was called
upon to vindicate outraged law and re
peat its impressive lessons to • society.
George S. Twftchell, Jr., and:Gerald
Eaton were tried for murder, and
found guilty by a jury of their country
men. The former slew a helpless wo
man, secretly, in her own house. The
latter killed a follow-citizen upon the
public streets• of the city. Twitchell
quaked before his doom, and added
murder of self to that of his mother-in
law." Ho preferred cowardice and the
ignominy of suicide to ignominy of the
scaffold. Eaton met the fate the law
provided for him. - Which will fare best
before .the Judgment .Stiat Uaton
died asserting that "lie never fired a
shot on that fatal night." • Twitcholl
robbed the gallows of its victim the
night befOre, by taking prussic acid,
whioh some beneVolent friend kindly
provided him with. Ho broke down
under the terrible end that awaited,
him and thus added' the suicide to the
murderer. We far, told that Eaton
met his fate like a man. Efforts were
made to resuscitate him, but the gal
lows had done its work thoroughly,
and the ficieiro, genius and, shill of
man were ineffectual. -

Connecticut'Election.
- The result of the election in Conned
ticut last week, is a greater triumph
than the Republicans had any reason
to hope - for. Wo °lofted the Governor
and throe out of the four Congress
men; a clear gain of two. The Repub
licans havo increased their majority in
the State Senate, but have lost in the
House, from local and personal left
°flees. The House is; however, Re
publican. by, a majority of 15 to 20.
The Governor, Marshall Sowell, is elect
ted by 811 majority, and the majori
itie's for' Congress aro as follows : I.
Strong (Rep.) over Dixon, 764;
Kellogg (Rep.) over Babcock, 323 ;
111. Starkweathor (Rep.) over Con
verso; 2,254; IV. Barnum (Dom.) over
Beardsley, 700.
;1 Last week both branches of the
Legislature rushed through with light
ning speed, and sent to the Governor
for hie signature,- a bill giying that of
ficial,the power to commute the death
penalty' to 'that of imprisonment for
life. This bill was intended to reach
Eaton's ease, as a groat pressure was
being brought to boar on the Governor,
to save the life of that criminal. The
Governor, however; was in no haste to
take advantage of it and up to this
time has not signed the bill. It is now
in the hands of Attorney General
Brewster, who is understood to hold
that there are grave legal objections as
to the policy of making it a law. Since
writing the above the Governor has
very properly vetoed the bill.
Mi. Mr. Charles M. Wilder, a colored
man, has been appointed and confirmed

member of the Legislature. He is rep.
resented as' a tall, well-made, good
looking mulatto,'of fair education and
good business qualifications. His Post
Office is worth $3,200 per annum.

ner of Twelfth and Chestnut streets,
was entered by robbers, and complete
ly etripped'of everything valuable in
the shape of money, bonds, &c., that
the institniken bad on hand. A rough
estimate places the value of money,
bonds, &e., carried off by the burglars,
at $1,300,000, of which about $lOO,OOO
wore in coupon bonds; which aro not
rogistored,'and which can of course be
easily sold for cash by the burglars.—

ried off, 'and the balance was in un
transferable bonds, &c., which will' bo
of no use to the robbers.
