There is no distinctive branch ef crime in which the homely old maxim, that "Honesty is the best Policy," applies with so much force as in cases of murder for pecuniary gain. As a mere business operation, without regard to moral con siderations, killing a human being that profit may come of it is the worst pos sible operation, and there is scarcely a geld of honest labor in which quite as good, or better returns, could not be ob tained for the same outlay of cunning in contriving, and the same amount of skill and energy in executing. It is a curious and well-established fact that of all the murders for profit that have ta ken place in Philadelphia, (where the criminals have been brought to justice,) the sum actually realized by them would scarcely pay for the same amount of skill, contrivance and exertion ap plied to the coarsest and least remunera tive of honest employments. We de not pretend to give an abso lutely full catalogue of all such local Crimes; but our memory, our experience, and our reading of such cases extend,ina general way, over a period reaching back until about the era of the revolu tion. The first that occurs to is what• is known in local history as the "Wheel barrow men's murder." Five "wheel barrow men," (convicts who were em ployed as scavengers,) for the sake of plunder, murdered acitizen who resided near Centre Square. They got but little or no profit for their pains; while as the penalty of their crimes the five murderers were hanged within sight of the scene of their crime. Later came the "Black horse alley murder," where a lone old lady, who kept a little shop, and who had the reputation of having money hoarded, was murdered by two negroes, who realized about thirteen cents, which they found in her till, as their reward, and both of whom expiated their crime irl on the gallows. Next in our recol lection comes the case of the Skupinski brothers, who butch ered a • pedlar-boy for the sake of perhaps a hundred dollars' worth of trinkets. Both were detected and hanged, after spending the greater part of their plunder in the attempt, to evade suspicion and escape the conse quences of their crime. The case of Ar thur Spring is fresh in the recollection of most Philadelphians. For the sake of but little more than a hundred dollars he slaughtered two women,one of whom was his earnest friend; and to add to the enormity of his offence, he attempted to shift the responsibility of his crime upon the shoulders of his own son. He had zeally enjoyed but a few dollars of the stolen money when he was arrested and paid the penalty of his crime upon the gallows. The Rink murder, which the same wretch doubtless committed, was a bootless crime, fo:t the mur erer was scared away without obtaining a cent of plunder, The murderer of Lougee also TOWER HALL, 518 MARKET STREET failed to obtain any portion of the money for which he committed the dread crime, and, although he escaped the gallows, which he so well deserved, he could not get away from remorse and those dread phantoms that pursue the murderer to the grave. Thomas J. Armstrong comes next in order among this class of criminals. For the sake of despoiling an old man of • about one hundred dollars, this criminal contrived an elaborate plot to entrap and murder his victim. The plan was carried into effect and the money was secured; but before the murderer had been afforded time to enjoy the plunder for which he had hazarded so much, the strong hand of the law was laid upon him and he finally ended his days upon the gallows. The case of Berger is so recent that we need only to refer to it. For fifty-three dollars he murdered a poor, feeble old woman in her own house, was arrested on the very day of the commission of the crime, and only escaped the scaffold by death that was supposed to have been induced by• the horror of his situation. The latest and the areatest of all these crimes and criminals are Anton Probst and his ter rible deeds of blood. Eight human be ings sacrificed, and only that he might realize about fourteen or fifteen dollars with which to secure a four day's de bauch ! Take the average sum actually realized by all these shedders of blood and we find that it amounts to but a very few dollars each, or less money than could be obtained for the same exercise of skill or cunning, and the same portion of la bor in almost any honest employment. The ease of Muller in England; of Dr. Webster in Boston; of Robinson, the murderer of Suydam, in New Bruns wick; or of Green, the postmaster, at Malden, Mass., all carry out our idea that in the murdering trade honesty is the best policy. As murder for profit is a mercenary crime,we have treated it as a mercenary question, and have endeavored to show that as a mere business operation it pays badly. We have-no desire or design,to enter into a dissertation upon the self-evident enormity of the crime of shedding human blood; but, as a picture of a portion of the drawbacks which the murderer for money must expect in the transaction in which he has engaged, we will make an extract from the works of the greatest of modern English popu lar novelists. One of his characters had committed a secret murder, and having left his victim in a wood, he had stolen back to his own chamber. The writer says: "The raging thirst, the fire that burnt within him, as he lay beneath the bed clothes; the augmented horror of the room, when they shut it out from his view; the agony of listening, in which be paid enforced regard to every houhd, and thought the moat unlikely one the prelude to that knocking which should bring the news; the start with which he left his couch, and looking in the glass imagined that his deed was broadly written in his face; and lying down and burying himself once more beneath the blankets, heard his own heart beating MURDER, MURDER, MURDER in the bed. What words can paint tremendous truths like these?" ENGLISH AND A mpuc&N TECTS. The London Times recently published an ill-tempered tirade against matters and things at Washington, including a very contemptuous reference to the Capitol, as being a complete failure. The old adage about dwellers in glass houses has a good exemplification in a confession made in the same journal concerning the Houses of Parliament. According to this authority, fifteen mil lions of dollars have been spent upon these famous structures, only to demon strate the entire inadequacy of the design for the ends required. "The approaches to the House of Commons are narrow and inconvenient. The lobby is too small for the crowds who congregate in it every night for the necessary purposes of business, the gallery into which the Committee-rooms open is too narrow for the crowds of witnesses, agents, barristers and mem bers of Parliament which daily choke it, the Committee-rooms themselves are ill-contrived and ill-ventilated; but the triumph of insufligiency and inconveni ence is the House of Commons itself." The leading defects of this successful specimen of British architecture appear to be an inability to seat the members and the impossibility of being heard! The floor of the Chamber is an open grating, which is of-course fatal to any acoustic effect, and the Ladies' Gallery, which is a structure like the upper cage of a menagerie,barely admitting eighteen of Brittania's fair daughters, is as com pletely cut off from the voices of the speakers as if it were in another apart ment. The Times, with true British tenacity, still believes that no man can be elected to the American Congress who would consent to take his seat without "a pen knife to shape his tobacco into that plug-like form which habit has made most agreeable to his palate." We can pity the ignorance which lugs in this allusion, when the thick-headed Thun derer sighs for the comfortable accommo dations of the Capitol atWashington. He confesses that the Separate desk and arm-chair, the abundant supply of stationery, the attendance of nimble pages, the general regard for the perso nal comfort of the members, are a step or two in advance of the crowded, un comfortable benches into which the members of Parliament are nightly huddled. In all matters of adaptations, all con siderations of the fitness of things for their legitimate purposes, the versatile American mind is very far ahead of its _British progenitor. Independence brought with it a popular disregard and even dislike for the authority of tradi THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN PHILADELPHIA, Ii'BIDAY, APRIL 27. 1866 tion and precedent, which has, un doubtedly, been carried to an undue ex tent. In plucking up the tares of obsolete ideas, which still infest the British mind, we have, doubtless, de stroyed some good and valuable wheat with them. But we have gained, with our separate nationality, a separate ori ginality. The necessity for immediate results in all practical matters bas stimulated our inventors, architects, constructors of every kind, in fact all our industrial forces, to the most direct and immediate and complete adaptation of means to ends. Stability and dura, bility and artistic effects are qualities which are of slower appreciation and growth, but all these are making rapid advances with us. We have fairly out grown our old schoolmasters and they, in turn, are beginning to acknowledge, very unwillingly perhaps, that in all that makes the individual citizen better and wiser and more prosperous, and in all that makes the State strong and rich and honored, "the child is father to the man."
