v, . 6 ;v Veto from Governor Geary j-rovldtna for. I tie Commutation o* tbiilleailil'cnaity.. Executive Chamukr, HArmismmo, April 9, 3669.— T0 ike Sena'eand Haute of lieprtinilattve.il of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania ;; 6enti.e mun—Afttr mature trad deliberate conslaeratlou of House bill No. 349, entitled “An act to author ize tbe Governor of this Commonwealth to ro duce any sentence of death to imprisonment' for life,’’ lam constrained to return it without my °^?b{f| V b*il, in my opinion, Is ' unnecessary, and imposes an obligation and responsibility upon the Governor, which should not be, put, on Lim it interferes by legislation with a .power which shbdld be prescribed bv a constitutional provi sion onlv. It is unnecessary, Inasmuch as our laws cautiously guard against any severity of punishment, and give to the court and to tho jury the duty and rignt to consider and apply all millgatinglcircumstances so as toi prevent ahy undue* rigor. Capital punishment is inflicted in this State for but. one offence—of murder, in the firstadegreo. No man' can be ebn-" vlctcd of boat degreo of hotnieido without the sancilcaof the court and tho unanimous ap proval of the jnrv. Two judges must sit on this trial. Challenges of jurors are liberally bestowed bylaw. The slightest doubt as to. the.degreo of guilt, or the premeditation of the party, is inva riably taken advantage of by the jury, and en couraged by the court, to mitigate the punish ment and reduce the degree. So tender are courts and juries of the Jives of accused men that it has btcome common complaint that it is almost im possible to procure a eonvictlobiof mnrder ih the first degree. The preamblo of the act of 1791 sets forth in concise . terms the sense> of our law makers upon this* subject. In the spirit of humanity .it secures “moderate - but certain penalties”' and 1 censures severe and excessive punishments, bnt it recognizes that, the pun-; ishmtnt of death ought to bo inflicted whore, it IS abeolutely neacssary to the public safety. If our laws wgto severo.-if courts and juries were not thus bound by positive enactments to give the accused the benefit' of fail’ miti gating circumstances, if courts'and juries were obliged to act sternly, and had no opportunity to judge with lenity, then there might bo some litticss 'in thus restricting rlgof by giving this additional discretion to the Governor. Bat the. law. is* otherwise, as I have shown. There is abundant lenity in every line of its provisions as there bos been'in every act of Its administration. In addition to' all of these 'advantages every convicted man has his rehearsing before the court on his motion for a new trial, which is of itself always practically a re-trial. Then he has appli cation' for'a'writ of error, and if there is the slightest departure by the court from the strict line of their-legal duty, thohumanity of the law again rescues the prisoner. Institutional writers of the highest dignity in all languages have over and again doubted the propriety of any power of commutation, or even pardon itself, and some of them positively pro test against the existence of any such power,con tending that it is by the certainty of punishment alone that the lasts can be enforced and society protected. In au countries that power-is lodired with those who represent the sovereignty of. the State. No lower official is suffered to touch this solemn function. In this country by the Consti tution of the United States nnd by the Constitu tion of every State, the power is lodged generally with the Executive and sometimes with special courts of pardon composed of ooe of the legisla tive branches. Without exception the people themselves, in their sovereign capacity, always make this the subject of special constitutional provisions, pro vide for It, bestow it, limit it, and by implication, if not by express terms, forbid legislative inter ference with tbe subject. This legislation is an attempt to enlarge such power in the Executive It is contrary to sound policy that a delicate and absolute subject like, this should be opened to tbe fluctuation of legislative will. It is unjust to the Executive ta compel him thus virtually to re-try every case or to refuso to exercise this func tion of commutation. It is unjust to courts and juries to expose their solemn findings to such irresponsible re-examlnations and criti cisms upon their doings. It would be almost a scandal upon tbe administration of public justice to have their acts in such cases reviewed privately and in.a corner at the instigation of persons whose anxiety would prompt them to stop at nothing to rescue human life. Some, prompted by affection and friendship, some stimulated by a love of gain, would not scruple to defame judges and to denounce jurors, and ail this the Execu tive would be obliged to hoar, try and determine alone, unaided by any of those moans of proof which were furnished at the time of trial, and which conduced to the verdict and judgment on that verdict. In civil cises motions for a new trial are to be received with caution, because there are few cates tried in which something new may not be hunted out, and because it leads very much to perjury to admit new evidence after the parly who has lost tho verdict has had an oppor tunity of discovering his adversary’s strength and his owp weakness. If tills is to be iearedia ordinary cases, where the right of properly only is concerned, how much the more must it be dreaded in cases involving tho lives of hitman be ings when such extraordinary means will be re sorted to to save them from the perilous situation in which they are unfortunately' placed? Jurors have their fightß as well as defendants, and unde served reproach and unmerited censure should not be cast upon them. (7 W. and 8. -121). It is not to be forgotten that the act is to a certain extent a deception. It seeming provides lor a commutation of punishment as if it were to be the final act of the law, and as if it were inten ded that the prisoner having thus escaped death should receive a punishmen t - for life as an abso lute, irrevocable penalty. In tho legislative his tory of this bill It is known that it was amended in the Senate so ds to oblige tho Governor to commute for no less a period than that of life, and yet as 1 have before said this is a merely a legai snare, lor the poweiwJf pardon still remains in the Governor, and after he had commuted, he or some other Governor may open the door and permit the guilty man to walk out and enter again into that society whose most sacred duties he has violated, and to whom ho has forfeited his life by the most atro cious crime a man can perpetrate. The power ol pardon stands upon a different ground al together from the power of commutation. Ills the beocvolinceot the State to, be bestowed bv tbe Executive from considerations of public policy sometimes, from considerations of private right, liom considerations ot grace and mercy, but the power of commutation is intended to be an exercise not ol sovereign grace but of judicial discrimination, by the Executive whose func tions are incompatible with its exercise. It may bo added that this bill is not in accord ance with the recommendation upon the subject contained in my lust animal messuge to the Gene ral Assembly, ft will be seen by rclerence to that document that a desire wasbimply expressed tor anthoiity lo commute the sentence of death in six cases, distinctly sptciiled. to imprisonment at labor in Hie penitentiary lor such a term of years as tbe .ameliorating circumstances might stem to justify and demand. For these, and other reasons that might ire as signed, the bill is relumed to the body in which it originated without my sanction. UJ a tiers in Cuba.

Tho presence of the revenue officers draw a crowd about the premises and in the neighborhood, and stones were thrown at them. As soon as it was discov ered that the whisky was to be run into the gut ter, a number of women and children harried to tho scene, provided with pitchers and other ves sels, and actually scooped the liquor ont of the gutter.
