'&' TH?J PITTSBUEG DISPATCH,, MONDAY, MARCH 3, 189L 3 HANGING DENOUNCED As a Barbarous and Unnecessary Means of Punishing Murderers. WEST'S DEATH POIKTS A MOKAL. Special Church Services Commemorative of Wesley's Death. SOME PDLPiT TOPICS OP TESMEDAT Rev. E. B. Donehoo, of the Eighth Pres byterian Church, last evening took for his text Deuteronomy 2153, "He That Is Hanged Is Accursed of God." The account of the colored murderer. West, as it appeared in The Dispat ?h of Friday, so impressed the preacher that he delivered a most inter esting sermon on the subject of capital pun ishment by means of the noose, during which he said: Hanging is not a Tery pleasant topic to dis cuss under any circumstances. It is a mode of punishment that no person of refined sensibili ties ought ever to desire to witness. Even when it Is inflicted w itbont any of those disa greeable features which sometimes, through accident or want of proper precaution, render it revolting in the extreme, it is at the best a scene to. inspire one with horror, unless his senesliave been thoroughly brutalized. To me it has teemed that the human countenance never assumes such a rcpeilant aspect, never so thorough! loses every trace of sympathy and humanity and all those tender feelings which differentiate man from the lower ani mals, as when gazing upon a poor wretch, pin ioned and guarded, ascending the steps of a scaffold ana cowering with unutterable fear as tbe fatal noose is being adjusted. The elbow ing and jostling of the croud to get so close to the victim that a single token nf his last agony may not escape tbem is a scene that can never be effaced from my mind as tbe most repellant that I have ever witnessed. An Argument Against the Scaffold. The account which came to us last week of an execution of a miserable colored man, which toot place In the town of Washington, was more tnan usually interesting, from the fact that the half-aead creature had to be chloro formed and strapped to a plank and swung off on a little rope that was fonnd to be unequal to the strain, affording to the select company who were favored by the 8henff with cards of ad mission a rare spectacle, not down in the bills, which any fancier of sneb scenes would cheer fully have given aweek" wages to have wit nessed. Without casting censure upon the Sheriff, who doubtless did all in bis power to avoid the very catastrophe which lent to this execution its chief interest, it was still horribly brutal and utterly ineffectual, so far as any re straining influence for good upon the public was concerned. The most that can be hoped from it is to so draw the attention of tbe think ing portion of the community to the horrors of such a method of punishment, that some less barbarocs and more satisfactory method of meting out punishment to criminals will be de termined upon. What are we to do with the man who takes the life of his fellowman? Of course many are ready to answer. "Do with him just as God has specifically commanded put him to deatb." And tbey are prenared to give their authority for such action. "Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood bo shed." To suggest a repeal of the laws against capital punishment is in tbe estimation of those who point to this scripture, an attempt to annul tne decree ol the Creator, and is therefore rebellious and atheistic in principle. Candid criticism will admit of this passage being thus rendered, "Wboso sheddeth man's blood, by man will his blood be shed" a prophecy, not a precept. It is simply indicative of thelatc that the murderer may reasonably expect, similar to that long afterward spoken, "He that taketh the sword shall perish by tbe sword;" not that every man found with a sword in his hand should be put to death with a sword, but merely that his end would most likely be a violent one. Banishment for Life as a Punishment If this was an absolute decree, then all I have to say is that tbe Lord himself disregarded it repeatedly aud that his peonle treated it with indifference from tho day that it was first an nounced, without any divine rebuke being ad ministered. Cain was a murderer of the deep est dve, but God did not put him to deatb, nor did He suffer his fellowmen to do it. He ban ished him to the land of Rod for his crime. And so to-day, from the examole of the Lord God Himself, we mete out to tbe murderer his just dues when we banish him lor life to the penitentiary. The ends of justice are satifled and rocie'y is protected from his murderous propensities. The history of the enforcement of canital pnnlshment shows abundantly that its influence has never been for good upon society at large, nor has it operated to restrain men from the commis-ion of the crime of murder. Black stone himself admits that when executions were most common, "tbe dreadful list Increases tbe number of offenders." The menace of death is not a deterrent to crime, and there are nany reasons n hv this is so. Tho law's delays, the many loopholes of escape, the great re luctance that the ordinary juryman exhibits toward consigning a man to the gallows, tbe very small proportion of those arraigned for the crime upon whom tbe sentence of the law is ever carried out all these reduce the danger of tbe death penalty being enforced to a mini mum, and neutralize its power as a warning against tre commission of murder. Every country that has abolished the death penaltv has found that it has resulted in the diminishing of the crime of murder by making the punishment for such an offense so much the more certain. In our own penitentiary there are scores of men serving out terms for murder who will soon be at large again, who, but for the deatb penaltj. would have becu cnnvicted of murder in the first degree and sentenced for lile to prison. Let us abohah this barbarous method of deal ing with cimie. consigning it to the same ob livion to which many another harsh and in human practice of tbe ancient people of God has been committed, and especially since this, with other modes of punishment, was borrowed fiomtbe heathen nations among whom they ere thrown, and let us henceforth consult some higher motivethan that of mere revenge, v hich 1 greatly fear is at the basis of all the de mauds that are made for tbe hanging of those who arc guilty of the crime of murder. BOUND BY AN OATH. What It Means to Partake of the Lord's Supper. Thirteen members were received into the membership of the First Congregational Church. Allegheny, yesterday morning, it be ing communion Sunday. Luke, eighth book, sxn: 19. 20, were used by the pastor. Rev. S. W. MrCorkle. as the basis of the sermon. Said he: What are some of tho lessons of instruction held steadily before the eyes of the world In the sacrament of the supper? It we would see sin in its real nature, we must look at it in the light of Christ's death in the light of that storm which burst upon him when he took our place became our substitute. Gctbsemane and Calvary are great luminous points in re demption's scheme, showing tbe dreadful and danmingl nature of sin. Also the sacramental eupper brings to view the great central doctrine of our religion an atom meant for sin. The "Moral Influence" theory of Abelard and So cinius and such Trinitarians as Maurice Jewet, Horace Busbnell and others is not sufficient. Jc.su Christ bore human sin as a representative of man, before the divine law. He was a sacri- n ce tor sin, a suus;itute lor man, and a s .infraction to law. This sacred supper i'.lui trates the truth that ail the blessings of the auini'iacuiaiB tu ue icurncu uj jauu, ana sets forth most impressively that fellowship which all Christians have or sbonld have one with an otherchildren nf one father, disciples nf one master. There is also tound Here uncourage rcent for the weak and imperfect ones of the church, fur those to whom Christ administered the mblems were weak and undeveloped. Frrtber it sboula not be forgotten that as we part-ike of this supper we renew our allegiance to the blessed Christ with all the solemnity of an oath. As the Roman soldier bound himself to lus commander by an oath r ublicly taken so tbe CLtistian renews his vows in the blessed sacrament of the supper. CALLING DOWN CRANKS, Rev. Dr. .1. G. Tourntend Quite Severo In His Sermon ol Yesterday. Kev. J. G. Townsend, D.D., pastor ot the Unitarian Church, yesterday took "Cranks" for his topic, during the course of bis remarks saying: Somone has said: "Blessed be cranks, lor tbey turn the wheels of progress." But it Is a misnomer to call the men of vision, men who are sustained and fed by a great idea, cranks. These men. pursuing their undaunted way, fearing no obstacle, and seeking no reward, are the teachers and prophets of our race. But cranks are those ill-born, Ill-balanced, Ill-educated people, who stop the wheels of progress or fain would do so. Yet they pose as reform ers, and imagine they are the custodians of all that Is good! There are tbe temperance cranks, who oppose everything but their on pet schemes, who want the last things first, who see no distinction between drinking sweet cider and selling rum to an inebriate, and cannot see that good and true men have donbts as to tbe wisdom ot en tire prohibition. There are tbe Sunday cranks, who will not see that what Is needed is not the suppression of Sunday activity, bat its direc tion. These thin and bloodless men would have a Sunday without art, literature, beauty, flow. ers, affection or jov. They would be perfectly happy it they succeeded in making' Sunday perfectly miseraole. There are tbe religious cranks, who make tbe by-laws of a hundred or a thousand years ago divino canons, who, like the It. 1. Presbytery, put muzzles on the mouths of those whom God has made free. These cranks are not confined to any church or creed. Then there are the cranks who come with a theory to mend tbe world with: who promise us an Arcadia in 21 hours; who, without study ing the past, think tbey can see through the clocd-curtain of tbe future. These cranks who see no good in our social or civic system, who carry all wisdom in their pint-cup theories do wo not meet them every day? Inclosing, let me ask you to treat the cranks with hosoitality and charity. Remember that no one is wise enough to see ovsr tbe whole horizon of thought. Let us try to be honest and fair, and content to do the little tasks that lie immediately before us. IN WESLEY'S'HONOR. Services to the Memory of the Founder of the Methodist Episcopal Church Held Testerday Union Meeting at the Denny Chapel.
