LANCASTER, JANUAUT 13, 1837.
The Hanging Fashion.
"Wilsen, who is banged at Xerus-
S' town for a murder which he confesses, lias
y nreeerved te the last the unusualdemeaner
' which satUQes many persons that he is of
unsound mind. He seems quite tee solici
tous te be considered the murderer te
if 'HKO n prouauie uiai no reaiiy ia uuv. u
v? these latter days it seems quite the habit te
KlM nrometo te the callews men of doubtful
1-L-; mllf
It is net often that they go there,
5 it is true, of their own ardent desire, and
when they de they may justly be con
sidered cracked. If 'Wilsen wants te
hang, though Innocent, probably
most persons will think that little
harm is done in accommodating him.
JBut there is no propriety in making hang
ing a farce or in awarding it as a reward of
merit. As folks generally object te being
hanged, it is just as well te keep up the be
lief that it is an uudesirable thing. It
would embarrass the administration of
justice for hanging te cease te be a dis
graceful and horrible punishment : a3 it
Burely will, if we continue our present
tendency te hang people v he are net proved
guilty.
In Pennsylvaula we are exceptionally
well fixed for hangings, having a governor
who signs death warrants with great readi
ness and apparent cheerfulness. Then we
have a pardon beard who are in unison
with the governor in this sentiment ; nt
least some of them are ; notably the secre
tary of state and attorney general, who
excel the governor even in readiness te
Blay. And the beard chimes in, with an
insane hanging resolution, by which they
forbid themselves te Inquire ngaln into
the facts that a jury has passed upon.
What a pardon beard is for, if it is net te
secure a revision of facts, is a conundrum
te the people. It is net wanted te secure a
revision of the law, certainly, which is the
supreme court's business ; and the pardon
beard cannot elevate itself into a legal tri
bunal superior te the supreme court. Its
f uuctiea Is te b.y whether the convict is
really guilty of the offense charged, under
he fr.cU, and if se whether he is
weituy of the punishment
Simply this and nothing mere,
deciding this they must ieviev
is if they de their duty ; and If
they hare net time or inclination for it,
they have an easy recourse in the proffer
of their resignations.
Certain it Is that the pardon beard has
net done its duty during the term et its
establishment. It is net a beneficent beard.
It takes responsibility from the governor
without compensating advantages. It has
been pcrticularly efficient in hanging In
sane and innocent people ; or at least peeple
of doubtful sanity and guilt, of whom the
law forbids the execution.
Electric Light Daugcu.
The coroner's inquest en the victims of
the Temple theatre fire, Philadelphia, has
brought out prominently several startling
facts with regard te the danger of flre from
electric light wires. Inspector McDevitt
said that moisture en a beard, across which
two electric light wires passed, would pro pre
duce a cress circuit between the wires aud
set fire te the weed. He demonstrated this
before the Jury, and ten minutes after the
current had been turned ou an intense
white flame appeared between thewnes
and left u charred line en the weed.
He then wrapped a handkerchief around
the glebo of au electric light, turned
ou the current and seen the hand
kerchief began te smoke , he
blew upon it aud it burst into flame.
He broke n lighted glebe ever an open gas
burner and the gas was lighted. He also
showed the danger that might arise from
the use of fusible plugs net suited te the
size of the wire. The plug should fuse
and extinguish the light a3 seen as the
nt becomes tee strong ; if it does net
there Is danger, and in the case of covered
wire, if tee strong a current is used, the
covering takes flre. This was also shown
te the jury. He demonstrated the necea
sity of great care in making connections,
and in conclusion said that safety from
fire depended en the skill and care of the
workmen.
These facts will be a revelation te most
of the users of the electric light, and it
eeems lemarkable that wide publicity was
net given te them long age.
If, as is thought probable in the oust) of
the Temple flre, a little Bteara rising from
the cellar and condensing en a window sill
can cuute a lire te be kindled between
wires of the electric light, the fact is one
which Bheuld have been familiar te all
users of the light from the first. It cannot
lead te the abandonment of it any mere
than the fact that boilers explode can in
terfere with the use et steam, but it must
lead all intelligent patrons of the light te
take every possible precaution against this

The Expected War.
A great many people think that the early
spring will open the European armies set
In battle array. The debate in the G erman
Reichstag has put Bulgaria in the shade
as the cause of war, and made it probable
that it will come without dlsgulsa as an
effort of France te recover her lest territory
It is net, however, safe te put great trust
In the works of a statesman of Bismarck s
demonstrated duplicity and It may be that
he is shaking the French red lag before
the legislature simply te get the war
measures passed that he seeks. And
a failure te enact which, VanMoitke says,
will surely cause war, ou the principle that
Germany's weakness will luvite attack.
There Is no doubt about the earnestuess
of the German government's desire te
strengthen the army, and of the Mrlous Mrleus
nes3 of the apprehension of war. There is
in this alone sufficient reason te conviuce
the world that it is coming , and prudent
men everywhere will govern themselves ac
cordingly. It will make a great difference
in business matters all ever the world,
which will generally be stimulated.

Is a novel sight te see NjO,X people strug
gling te get into the Union without being

lie wants the question whether Dakota
should be admitted as one state or two de
cided by a vote of the people of the
territory. Tbey would nitura'.ly vcte
ler the undhided admission that would
make their state one or the greatest In
the Union , but the impression is growing
that Texas 1 tee big and Dakota is also very
large. It Is said that the latter Is capable el
supporting a much larger population, tu
there are no vast deseru within her borders
and the Black Hills held mineral wealth.
The " bad lands " et Dakota cannot be
compared w ith the staked plains of Texas,
and the Indian reservations, which occupy
nearly one-third of the territory, are said te
be quite as fertile as the land which already
suptierts the WW.OOO who are eager te wield

Then fellows a long list of companies or
ganized with large capital for the building of

mines el coal, iron, limestone and marble.
In this connection we note that Congressman
McMillan, of Tenneseee, Is rejoicing ever the
prospect that the appropriation for Mussel
Sheals en the Tennessee river, In the river

locks and dams and enable the iron men of

she said. 'Inen she smiled and mxlded te

" it is all right, remarked Mli-s Lammas.
"Aunt Bluebell knows she is deaf, and
does net ssy much, like the parrot. Yeu
see, she knew jour grandfather Hew odd,
that we should be neighbors ' hy have we
never met before ' '
" If you had told me you kuc my grand
father when you appeared In the garden, I
should net bare been in the least sur

really thought you were the ghost et the old

"We were a large pany, and we went out

" Hardly a soul. De you '
" Ne. Aunt Bluebell said it was our duty

does net bear the burden of the conversa

"Shall I go away ? '
Miss Lammas loekol a', me with a sudden
gravity in her l"autlful eyes, and there was
a sort or hesitation about the Hues of her lull
selt mouth.
"Ne," she said at last, nulla simply,
"don't go awaj . We may like each elher if
you stay a little leiiger and weeught te, be
cause we are neighbors in the country."
I suppose 1 ought te hae thought MM
Lammas a very odd girl. Theie 1, indeed,
a sort of lreemaseury between people who
discover that they live uear each ether, aud
that they ought te have known each ether
before. But there was a sort of unexpected
frankueis and simplicity in the girl's amus
lug manner which would have struck any
one else as being singular, te say the least of
IU Teme, however, it all seemed natural
enough. 1 had dreamed of her face tee long
net te be utterly happy when 1 met her at
last and could talk te her as much as I
piea.sed. Te me. the .nan of ill-luck iu
everything, the wbole meeting seemed tee
geed te be true. 1 ielt ugain that strange
Bcnsatleu of lightness which I had experi

The great rooms seemed brighter, life seemed
