. PUNISHMENT#
The execution of Bridget Deignan, on Fri
day last, was one of those painful exhibitions
that shock every idea of public morals and
arm the'advocates of the abolition .of the
death penalty with one of their strongest ar
guments. The execution of this wretched
criminal was attended with circumstances of
the most disgraceful impropriety. The law
®f New Jersey has abolished public execu
tions, hut an unprincipled Sheriff evaded that
wise provision, by enrolling upon hiß jury
hundreds of spectators, eager to glut their
morbid curiosity upon a scene from which
any decent man would gladly hide himself.
New Brunswick was crowded with thousands
®f visitors, attracted by the dreadful tragedy,
and inside and outside of the prison walls
it required the combined efforts of tlio
military and the police to maintain any sem
blance of order. To add to the horror of the
occasion, it is said that the condemned, wo
man was deliberately drugged with whisky,
and in this condition and with these sur
soundings which recall the old scenes of
Tvbum, Bridget Deignan was launched into
another world. For such a scene there is no
excuse, and for its positive immorality and
consequent ill-effects upon the welfare of
Society there is no denial. The Legislature
of New Jersey is bound to protect society
from such disgraceful and dangerous scenes.
They are unworthy of the civilization of this
century and of this land, and deserve the
sternest reprobation from all who regard the
honor of the United States and the good of
society. / ' . n
But the execution of Bridget Deignau is no
argument whatever against capital punish
ment. Its revolting details are. an unan
swerable plea for private executions, and
there the argument ends. The striking con
trast presented by the .execution of Winne
more in this city on the previous day is fresh
in the public mind. Without parade or ex
citement, with quiet and decorous solemnity,
in the presence of thirty official witnesses,
the murderer of Dorcas Magilfon paid the
penalty of his crime. So well did Sheriff
Howell perform his duty, that the gallows
was erected in a new position because it had
been ascertained that the other prisoners
could witness the execution from their cell
wmdows, by the use of bits of looking-glass.
And so decided is the public approval of
Sheriff Howell’s management of the several
executions which have occurred during his
term of office, that no one of his suc
cessors will ever venture to depart
from the precedent thus established.
The New York Tribune makes the execu
tion of Bridget Deignan the text for a well
merited assault upon the whole system of
public executions, but even that journal,
which believes in the total abolition of the
death penalty, is so impressed with the decent
dignity of Winnemore’s private execution as
to be forced into the admission that “if, in
deed, it could be secured that every murderer
shall'be hanged with the same decency that
was used in the case of Winnemore, some
thing of the loathing and hatred with which
we look upon the gallows might be softened,
■if not wholly done away with." This is
. an immense cqiw , «°‘‘'' w from % ■ -*£kat has
made the abolition of capital punishment one
of its pet isms. But the truth is that the
best philosophers and philanthropis'ts have"
failed to frame a perfect argument in favor of
the total abolition of the death penalty.
Men like Karl Jlittermaier, who has labored
in Germany for thirty or forty years in this
cause with rare ability, have accomplished
much for humanity by modifying the almost
indiscriminate use of capital punishment,
which only .a few years ago prevailed
throughout Christendom. Seventy years ago,
the number of crimes threatened with death
in England, amounted to I CO; it is now re
duced to seven, while murder alone is now
capitally punished. The same reform has
been carried on, all over Europe and Ame
rioa. The publicity of executions is also
being rapidly done away, and, at the same
time, the enlarged opportunities afforded to
accused persons for their defence are con
stantly diminishing the force of the principal
argument against capital punishment, the
risk pf executing the innocent fof the guilty.
But great as has been the work which such
men as we have cited have accomplished in
the cause of humanity, they have failed to
present any positive proof that capital puni
isbment for murder is either unlawful or in
expedient. They argue that because life is
the gift of God, man has no right to deprive
his fellow of it. They forget that “liberty
and the pursuit of happiness,” are included in
the same trinity of man’s “inalienable rights. ”
They argue that the death penalty is opposed
to the spirit of Christianity. They forget that
an awful death penalty is the foundation stone
of the whole Christian system. They argue
that capital punishment is not so effective in
protecting society from criminal offences as
imprisonment They forget that the chances
of escape and of pardon deprive imprison
ment of half its terrors. They argue that
where the death penalty has been modified
or abolished, capital crimes have not in
creased. They forget that that very modifiea
tion has been the result of the spread of edu
cation and enlightenment among the masses,
and that with the removal of ignorance, its
. .. twin-sister vice becomes subdued. And so
«B through the whole chain of arguments ad
duced by the best writers against capital
punishment. Until better reasons can be
" brought forward, or somemillenial condition
of society is reached, capital punishment must
fellow the shedding of blood. All that
philanthropy can hope to do la prevent the
recurrence of such scenes as disgraced New
Jersey on Friday last, and to surround the
last penalty of the la# with every safe-guard
against those demoralising effects which un
doubtedly follow such exhibitions.
BINCKI.EV.
Mr. John M. Binckley, ex-Land Office
clerk ex-reporter of the .Act tional Intelli
gencer, ex-claim agent, nephew of the rebel
General Joe Johnston, and at present Acting
r Attorney-General of the United States, is
doing his very best to acquire notoriety and
win the favor of Andrew Johnson. The pub-
lic became aware of his existence when, by'
his ridiculous zeal in attempting to injure
several loyal Congressmen by implicating
them with Sanford Conover, he sunk from
respectable obscurity to very discreditable
lame, but Binckley felt that the tide in his
affairs was at the flood, and he determined to
push on to fortune. Mr. Stanbery
is unfortunately 'sick,, and Binckley
is in charge of the office with
full power as the legal adviser of the Presi
dent to give “opinions” upon questions of
law that may arise. It is usual we believe
for the Attorney-General to reserve his
opinion upon any subject until he is asked
for it. But as even Andrew Johnson feels a
certain contempt for so small a villain, and
has displayed it by carefully excluding him
from the White House, Binckley feared he
would not be called upon, and so, with an
insatiable thirst for cheap glory, he volun
teered an opinion yesterday upon the course
of General Sickles, which is certainly one of
the most extraordinary public documents that
has ever issued from ~a government de-
partment.
To review it in detail would be impossible,
and indeed inadvisable, for it is a mass of
wordy and incoherent nonsense. Binckley
quotes law with an air of sagacity that would
only be assumed by a man who knows
nothing at all about it, and he advances
theories which he evidently considers argu-
ments, but which prove nothing, and are not
pertinent to the subject matter he may hap
pen to be discussing at that precise moment.
The whole thing is decidedly Bunsbyisk. It
reads like a wretched parody of one of
Browning’s most incomprehensible poems.
Binckley starts anywhere and winds up
nowhere. He has succeeded in making up a
slightly unintelligible digest of the dictionary,
but oue rises from perusing it impressed with
the conviction that it would have been less
bewildering to have read a few chapters in
Worcester or Webster at once. "Here for in
stance is a fine specimen of Mr. Binckley’s
logic.
‘•Military power is but a form in which the
civil, which is the only authority, manifests it
self in action. A conllict, therefore, between the
civil and the military authority of the same sov
ereignty is logically imparted, unless through the
fault of public agents, either civil or military.
The laws of a country must, and the ministers ot
those laws may; be in harmony,' but they (.may
not; and this from innocent or from culpable
motive?. These principles are of the utmost im
portance to public order, and have been so recog
nized by politicians of every school, ana partis
ans of every faction of note, from the foundation
of the Republic. Surely, no political party will
repudiate, aB none can exclusively claim, these
essential conservative .principles, candid
person would hesitate to accept their substance
as indisputable; and we may thus eliminate at
the outset most of the extraneous matters tend
ing to complicate the unfortunate collision
which has occurred, and may be warranted, I
think, in inquiring whether it is anything in law
hut a misdemeanor in violation oi the laws in
force for the furtherance of the judicial power.
Doubtless this is an unavoidable conclusion,
and we would very likely be compelled to
admit its force if we knew precisely what it
meant. The man who can “logically impart
a conflict’and assume the startling fact that
“the laws and the ministers of them may be
in harmony, and they may not,” is capable
certainly of doing even apparently impossible
things with logic, and if we cannot compre
hend him we must attribute it to our defi
ciency, and to the pre-eminent superiority of
his intellect over ours. After six long columns
of this sort of thing, Binckley arrives at the
great truth which he has sought to establish.
Here it is: ■ -
“But the great responsibility which appears to
me to arise on sdeh an occasion, where the pbysi
cal power of the offender is great, is this: thatfor
the sole Executive to suffer the Judiciary to be
overthrown in any case would be potentially to
overthrow it himself, and, therefore, I am
solemnly impressed with the belief that, unless
the President promptly represses the contumacy
thus disclosed to him, he will he exposed to the
just imputation of a culpable insensibility to the
co-ordinate dignity and paramount sanctity of
the national Department of Justice. Contempt
of law indulged, speedily grasps at the heart
strings of public order. So teaches history.”
It is sad that we cannot have the expe
rience of history to teach us the result of con
tempt indulged for Binckley. If we knew
that, we would then be able to read the future
of this impertinent fellow with tolerable ac
curacy. Andrew Johnson and his supporters
have fallen very low indeed, but it was neces
sary that they should have this verbose and
ridiculous-endorsement from Binckley to
discover the depth of their descent. If Mr.
Stanbery is not heartily ashamed of his as
sistant, and does not either discharge him, or
give up his own office in disgust, we are mis
taken in the man. The latter result is the
most probable, for Mr. Johnson’s friends are
rather few at present, and, as Stanbery has
displayed a certain lukewarmness of late, the
President may elevate Binckley to a seat in
the Cabinet, as a reward for his zeal.
If Congress did not restrict President John
son so completely but that his crooked
and perverse ingenuity can still find
means of breaking the spirit ol the law while
the letter is observed, they at least foresaw and
provided for many of the most dangerous of
his probable acts. It was perceived, for in
stance, that a proclamation of general am
nesty might he used to enfranchise certain
disqualified rebels, and thus, by placing votes
in their hands, enable them to interfere mate
rially with the efforts of the loyal people of
the South to effect reconstruction. It was
therefore declared that such a proclamation,
should not remove the disability of rebel
officials as voters. The wisdom of this pro
vision is apparent. If report be true, Mr.
Johnson is about to issue a proclamation
•which if not universal, is nearly as bad, for
it will pardon some of the most infamous
rebels that participated in the late war.
Among these it is asserted Vill be all civil
and diplomatic officers, and domestic and
foreign agents of the rebel government, and
1 “all who treated otherwise than lawfully, as

prisoners of wax, persons tokenin' the service
of the United States.” The former class will
include the rebels who were stationed in
Canada, and who, during the war, organized
raids upon our frontier States, murdered and
robbed innocent citizens, endeavored'to in
troduce yellow fever into our Northern
cities, strove to bum the great hotels of Ne w
York,and sent bands of cut throats upon pas
senger steamers to murder, rob and destroy.'
The second class embraces men of the Wirz
stamp, and all who in the various prison
pens of Andersonville, Salisbury and Belle
Isle, tortured our soldiers with a refinement
' of cruelty tEat mitkes the .Spanish Inquisition
appear merciful beside it. While we might
be'willing to extend the 'greatest clemency to
the rebels who fought bravely in the ranks,
those who love justice would rather desire to,
harden their, hearts in the case of these men."
Even if their cause had been righteous, their
treatment of our imprisoned soldiers and their
cowardly attempts upon our Northern cities
were clearly in.violation of the laws of war,
and should never he forgiven. Because this
is the feeling of the American and be
cause Congress interfered with his plans, 3lr.
Johnson has probably determined to extend
his clemency to the men who committed
crimes for which Wirz was hung. Of course
there is no preventive for this outrage if it is
to be accomplished. We cannot deprive him
of the pardoning power, and if he abuses it
we must submit, but if those who still profess
to believe in his patriotism are not convinced
by this coming proclamation that Mr. John
son is in full sympathy with the most wicked
rebel spirit of the South, they are indeed lost
beyond hope of recovery in the quagmires of
Copperheadism. . _
On Saturday last another brutal and shock
ing prize fight took place near Cincinnati,
and a full account of the affair with all the
disgusting details was telegraphed over the
country. The fight has been discussed in all
the leading journals for weeks past, and the
preliminary arrangements recorded from time
to time. The ablest paper in Cincinnati even
went so far as to publish portraits of the two _
contestants, with sketches of their lives. Both
of these pugilists were of the very lowest
class. The defeated one had been a respect
able llunkey in . the house of an English
nobleman, but had fallen to the infinitely
lower level of the prize ring, and 'the
other was a professional pugilist. Their
friends, companions and, supporters 1 were
thieves, pickpockets, jail-birds, and the very
riff-raff and*off-scouring of humanity—the
scum thrown off from the seething cauldron
of life in our great cities—and yct.their doings
were recorded with scrupulous' fidelity, and
read with proportionate eagerness by all
classes. The result was the usual one. The
victor walked away with the stakes in his
pocket, and the defeated pugilist lay upon
the earth, a bruised, maimed and bloody
mass of flesh, with nearly every, trace
of humanity obliterated from . his fea
tures. No surgeon was at .hand to
, bind up his wounds, or to render any
assistance to save his life if it had been endan
gered. Thefwhole thing was beyond expres
sion, horrible and revolting, and yet it is
useless to deny that there is a public demand
for reports of these affairs, and that respect
able people feel a deeper interest in them than
they would be-willing to confess. Until the
popular appetite for such details ceases to
exist, the newspapers must publish them, or
else respectable journals must unite in
refusing to cater to it, first result may
be consequent upon siich action, and it is to
be hoped a movement of this kind will be
inaugurated. Then prize fights will be left to
that class of journals affected exclusively by
“the fancy,” and consequently excluded from
the homes and hands of decent and respect
able men.

After that he. fought five rounds with broken ribs,

1 Special to the Philadelphia Kveniug Bulletin by Haaeon’c
• Independent News Agency.]
Mon mu:, N. Y., Sept. 2.—At half-past 10 o’clock
last night the 7 P. M. express, train on tjjjr Erie
line from New York was thrown from the track,
a quarter of a mile from this station, by a disar
ranged switch.
The locomotive was completely upset Two
baggage cars and smoking car were smashed.
The floor of the baggage car was driven through
the smoking car, tearing off the roof and nearly
an entire side of the car. Miraculous to gay, no
one was killed, but cuts and braises were plenti
fully distributed.
One young man, named Charles Stiles, of
Elmira, was badly lacerated in the leg, and bled
profusely. The smoking car was well filled with
passengers, several of whom pitched themselves
through the windows, in the consternation that
prevailed.
The appearance of the wreck Is that of the
most complete havoc, baggage oars being piled
on top of each of other, and the locomotive and
lender being upset. A train coming in an oppo
site direction was signalled before running into
the wreck.
A train will soon arrive to take on the passen
gers.'

O.VEop.n, Ohio, Sept. 2— On Saturday night
quite a riot occurred at College Corner, a-small
village on the State line of Indiana and Ohio, be
tween a .party of MeCool. and Jones men, who
were returning from the recent fight. The train
containing ibe excursionists consisted of two
cars, one of which, was occupied by the MeCool
men. and the other by the -Jones party.
The train stopping at this point, the party in
one car made a raid upon a low saloon fot; their
afternoon hitters, when the other party came up
and press their way into the pre
mises. High words ensued, when a general
kribek-down took place. Pistols and knives were
used freely.
Seventeen of the mob were seriously wounded
—three were fatally injured, it is supposed.
Among the latter, it is reported, was the Hon.
Judge Folly, formerly a Democratic Congress

Amnesty.'
The Npw York Herald* Washington corres
pondent has the following,:
THE rORTHCOMING A3INESTY PROCLAMATION.
The announcement that President Johnson is
preparing a new amnesty proclamation more
literal in its terms than that of the 29th of May,
1335, has set the people to guessing at its pro
. bable contents, By those who are supposed to
know something of Presidential intentions, it is
" said that all classes of rebels will be pardoned and
granted a full restoration of civil rights
not specifically taken away by acts of Congress,
except such as weregultyof acts of piracy during
the war, or were parties to the cruel treatment
of Union prisoners. Under the last proclamation
fourteen classes were exempted from its benefits,
including all above the rank of Colonel in the
army, and Lieutenant in the wav of the rebel
Btates, and such as voluntarily went from North
ern homes to espouse the rebel cause. •
The Tribune's correspondent alludes to the Am
nesty proclamation.in these terms:
The venerable and usually well-informed
correspondent of the Charleston Courier
states, in a letter to that journal, “that
the forthcoming proclamation of amnesty will
be universal in it 3 character," which is 'most
likely correct. It is lfnown that the President
favors universal amnesty,but his Cabinet are not a
unitin the matter. The proclamation will be
before the Cabinet probably at its next meeting,
it may be a week or ten' days, however, before
it is issued; but that it is now under considera
tion by the President, there is no doubt. In view
of, the fact that the Reconstruction law prohibits
a President’s pardon from enfranchising any one,
the probable issnance of such a proclamation
docs not excite the comment that it other
wise would. However, there is an idea prevalent
here among Johnson’s Southern friends that tha
Prcsident’s.amnesty will entitle a man who may
have been a rebel to vote. They are trying to
impress Johnson with this idea, and are being
backed up by able Democratic lawyers. If neces
sary, they claim that the Attornev-Generai, or,
in his absence, the famous Binckley, can
make an interpretation of the law to
suit them. If this could be done,
then registration in the South would
be reopened, and the newlv enfranchised citi
zens allowed to register. This is hardlv proba
ble, however, as the law on this subject'is so ex
plicit that it is seriously impossible for a wron lr
interpretation to be made bV a sane man The
rebels here are very jubilant over the prospect,
and state that Johnson will 'follow up the'new
amnesty proclamation by something more start
line-. and that will be equally as beneficial to
them. •
