•B. SIJROEFJPE’B DEATH WAKKA3IT.
Governor Geary yesterday, at the recom
mendation of Attorney-General F. Carroll
Brewster, signed the death-warrant of Dr. Paul
Schoeppe, of Carlisle, fixing his execution for
the £2d of December.
•We have never doubted, nor do we now
doubt,'' Governor Geary’s anxious desire to
•xercise the pardoning power with a due
regard to the sometimes conflicting claims of
fßstice and mercy. The pardon reoord of his
1 administration is singularly pure and satisfac
tory, despite the malignant efforts that have
ikeen made to impeach his motives and his
conduct in this respect, But we write under a
■deep conviction of the correctness of pur posi
lion, when we give as the conclusion of. a
patient, dispassionate and somewhat laborious
■examination of the whole case of Dr. Schoeppe,
1 'the strong opinion that Governor Geary vester
, .day signed the death-warrant of a man about
•whoso guilt there is, to say the very least, too
a/ grate a doubt to justify Ms capital punish-
It is with no want of confidence in the Ex
•l ecutive, or of respect for his distinguished
i! legal adviser, that we desire to. urge, upon
'■l, them the fatal importance of this existing
* doubt, which is -shared hy a large body of the
. ablest scientific men in the country.
Attorney-General Brewster’s decision is
based upon a simple and very intelligible pro
; position. Referring to the contradictory evi
dence of the experts, he says: “If they who
have devoted their lives to the study of these
questions cannot agree as to the results, it
would be hopeless for .others to undertake a
settlement of their controversy.” The At
torney-General accordingly sets the whole
put expert question aside, and rules that the verdict
® «i' the jiuy was in accordance with the evi
dence, confirmed by the judgment of the lower
. Court and the refusal of the Supreme Court to
*allow the writ of error, and that therefore the
Governor is boundto hang Dr. Schoeppe. We
believe this fairly states the Attorney-General's
position
But 'does not Attorney-General Brewster
undertake, what he has just pronounced “liope
, less,” a “ settlement of the controversy ”of the
experts ? Does he not virtually decide that the
evidence of Dr. Aiken is true, and that the
• evidence of Drs. Wormley and Himes, of the
leading German physicians of Philadelphia, ‘of
DrS. Edward Hartshorne, Kay, and Keese, of
the College of Physicians, the Medical Faculty
of Yale College, the Medical Society of Mew
Yoik, and many other eminent physiciaus and
medical associations, is all worthless even to
la isc a on the other side ? With every
foi ling of respect for Judge Brewster, it is im
possible to avoid the conclusion that while he
declines “to disnm the points upon which
these learned professors differ,” he has passed
judgment upon them without discussion. The
one word “hopeless ” proves the existence of a
doubt, which, as we have already said, is of
fatal importance.
lint the second branch of the .Attorney-
General’s proposition is that the Executive
ought not to interposej-ocetHise the verdict must
have been in accordance with the evidence, or
the Court below dr the Supreme Court would
liave interposed. To this ground, we offer this
objection: The Governor’s, pardoning power
is absolute ami tmereign. It goes behind all
other powers and decisions, and is exercised
upon the sole responsibility of the Executive.
We believe, that this proposition will , not be
doubted. It. matters not from "what source a
doubt may arise; if it exists at all, it must
over-rule all juries, all judges, all- courts. The
solemn responsibility of taking human life is
too tremendous to be ventured upon, if only
a cloud of doubt, no larger than a man’s hand,
rises anywhere upon the horizon of the ease.
The Attorney-General, in liis reference to the
, ■“ confusions of science,” virtually admits a
■doubt, and upon this one point the whole case
hangs. AVe have carefully studied everything,
that has been made public in Dr. Schoeppo’s
•case, and we feel coniident that the doubt
which that study lias made continually stronger
exists in so many far more competent and
’ .learned minds as to call loudly lor, an arrest of
judgmeut.evennow. " ‘
.Governor. Geary, with niiicff wisdom and
.good judgment, has constantly acted upon
e. -doubts raised after trial, as to the character of
Vj t the-evidence, adduced-before the jury, audit
t; ■' must be borne in mind that the great mass of
evidence in Dr. Kclioeppe’s favor is of this post
. judicial-character. In the PardonKeport for
1868, .a document to which we have often rc
f ferred vitli.much satisfaction, we tind the fol
■ * lowing cases, nearing Vvltli more or less force
upon this point:: Mo. 5. “The evidence did not

is »io reason to donbtthat Executive clemency ;
Wai properly exercised in each' anil .every
instant \ r! "v;./,
For these reasons We* respectfully and very
■earnestly submit to Ilia /Excellency, Governor'
tieary, that the doubt, which is all that we
claim in Dr. Schocppe’s:case, has not been re
moved by the opinion of his learned Attorney-
General, but that its existence has been rather
confirmed/ That, doubt grows ont of the an-:
prejudiced, scientific testimony of a body of
men so large and so competent to judge in the
premises as to refute the testimony of any
single expert like Dr. Aiken, dr, at the very
least, to establish, too serious a doubt of the
condemned ihan’s guilt to warrant his cxecu
;ion. *
A FEW WOKIW* ABOUT HASH.
The Board appointed last week to examine
into and report on the question of rank be
tween the line and the staff of the navy, met and
organized on Monday. The whole day’s session
was occupied iu a discussion on the wording
of the order convening thisßoard. f l he order
reads: “Said officers are constituted a Board
to examine into all questions in regard to the
rank of the line and the civil officers of the
navy ?” Those members who are staff officers
objected to the use of - the word “civil,” and
asftetl leave to enter a protest with the Secret
taiy of • the Navy. Leave was granted by a
majority vole, and the protest was submitted
to the Secretary. The Board then adjourned.
It is remarkable that the Secretary of the
Navy should have thus misapplied the word
“civil” to a class of. officers who are military
officers. Those whom he intended to desig
nate are ruled by military laws, are amenable ■
to military tr ibunals and wear a military uni
form dress. Line officers are military for the
same and no other reasons. The navy is a de
partment of the military establishment, and is
a military - organization, which, strictly speak
ing, includes no civil office or officer.
The Navy Department isa civil Organization
devised for the administration of naval affairs
in a general way, and so far is
associated’ or connected with the
navy. All the officers embraced in it are
cir.il officers, for the reason that they all act in
virtue of civil commissions, and are amenable
exclusively to civil laws and tribunals if
charged->witli official offences. The civil offi
cers connected with the navy are the
Secretary of the Navy, the chiefs of
bureaus,— although they hold also commissions
either in the line or staff of the navy—the
clerks, civil engineers, draughtsmen, navy
agents, master mechanics at navy yards, and
possibly naval constructors. None of the
officers named could be tried by a conrt-martial
in time of peace. They have no
military rank. Neither tti«j Secretary of the
Navy, nor any chief of bureau
iii the Navy Department, has any military
lhiik in virtue of his commission as Secretary
or as Chief of Bureau. In this respect they
are all on a footing-with the officers of the
Treasury and Interior Departments. Their
authority is above military authority, on the
broad principle that the civil is always above
military power, which is merely an agent of
eivil government, and, of course, must be un
der its control.
The only military officer exercising authority
in the Navy Department,in virtue of a military
commission, is Vice*Admiral Porter, and lie is
not lawfully a part of the organization of the
Navy Department. lie is there solely by the
orders of the President, probably for a tempo
rary purpose or because it is deemed expedient
lor seine reason.
Every military organization consists of two
classes of i llicers, denominated the line and'
the stall'. The Secretary designed, no doubt,
that the Board should examine ail questions
relating to the rank of line and stiff officers ot
the navy. It was surely proper that the staff
officers should'invite the SeereUry’s attention
to his own inadvertence in the use of the term
chit in this connection, for he no doubt knows
that ciril officers of our government have no
rank of, a military character. Striclly con
strued according to its terms, life order applied
exclusively to the rank of line officers, whjchlie
did not intend.
It may. he said in conclusion that this Board
is not competent to settle the mooted question.
Only Congress lias power to determine what
shall be the rank, that-is,-the position of staff
officers relatively to the line. The Board can
merely indicate a plan which, in its opinion,
will settle the long existing controversy on the
subject.
IIUIU.I. DETECTIVES.
The shadow of Hie approaching Metropolitan -
Police Bill has stirred Mr. Kqx : to the most
desperate efforts to curry favor and to retaiu
liis political power. It is..privately intimated
that, a very substantial sum of money is-being
raised by a monthly assessment of five dollars
■per eajrila, among the police, to be invested at
lidi rishing next, winter, as similar sums were
invested at the last session. Meantime a fresh
bid lias just been pul up. ki the shape of a
grand scheme for remodeling the Detective De
partment. There are. some good features in
ifie theory of the plan, but where Mr. Pox is
to find eighteen such omnipotent and omni
present model detectives i|S the plan calls for,
°is hard to guess. Let us.clanee.fil.j.Viu.duties

H all aihlrwiseil the jury, tills morning for the
Coounonweaitb in the Credit Mobilior case.
Jn<lge Pearson charged snbatnntbilly that tho
dividends to stockholders of tho Credit 51 o
bihurwere Bnblect to taxation for the actual
amcrant; that if the contractn were cancelled
and rencwnl to deprive the Opmnionwcalth
«f the:;'fax, ;cancellation was void;: that,
i whether tho dividends were declared before
or after cancellation, even if cancellation wita :
legal, thefnx was due the Commonwealth on,
the prolits prior to the cancellation; that If
the dlyidenda were earned by the,, company’
and made by the trustee, they were the namo
Oh if made hr,the corporation ; that if divi
dends are divided among tho stockholders
they cannot be said to lie paid an to indi
viduals;, hut taxed against tlip stockholders;
that if received under credit, of the, corpora-;
tion'as stoelcbolders, though through the trus
tees, the eatno must he charged to the cor,>o
ration. These, were surwtanfially all the points
raised by the Attorney General..
The .Judge decided favorably t<i only one
point of the defence: that if dividends are
fonnd by flic jury to have been declared by
tlie Credit Moliiiier, the tax should to upon
•he actual Value of tlio dividends, and not on
the nominal value of tho certificates of the
Boards paid as dividends; and under this
point , thi; defence claim a reduction of
$2,:KJ6, (K10 never received. Jiiry outv

*‘.St. Eons, Nov. 22, —Thomas Alien having
attempted to throw all the blame for the recent
/(n.vxi at CiiK'iimati upon me, I derm it proper
to set mysnf right before trio public. I went
into training, at a heavy expense, for the
' avowed and‘actual purpose of settling my
right to the championship, solely upon my
merits, and was iu a condition to, at least,
make a show for . .victory. Arriving in Cin
cinnati, Hr. - Allen and his friends re
fused to accede to my proposition,
looking to a bringing on of the' tight,
t and 1 was forced, reluctantly, to return
to this city without any opportunities at all of
redeeming the promises to my triends of win
ning the. battle or .losing my money. The press
ol' Cincinnati as ‘ well as this city have beeii
disposed to censure me only for tlne/iWo, and
the result is that 1 stand little belter before
the community at present than had I autually
heen whipped"; Ever since my return I have
been anxious to get on a tight with Mr.
Allen, and am still; and in order to test
Allen’s willingness to moot me,, in the
prize ring, I now challenge hint
for fun, a supper, or anything else be piay im
dieato, within any period of from one to ten
davs. Ect him and myso.lf <gieb indicate a
person who shall select the grounds, aud, with
live men on each Side; 1 am willing aud
anxious to make the battle, and make the
proposition in order to accommodate Alien,

time and'pla. e,to complete arrangements, and
desire to tight where more' hard hits can bo

New York, Nov. 25.— The money market is
steady at 0 to 7 per cent, on call, .with excep
tions to the leading Government houses at, .5
per cent. The demand for time loans lias in
creased, with some transactions to-day at 7
per cent., and 1 i>er cent, commission, for 00
■days.
: There is more disposition to buy commercial
paper, and strictly prime business notes are
diseounted at 9qJ2; per cent, Tlie banks are
still sending currency to tin; West and .South,
line bank sent 5-200,(100 to Chicago to-day.
This is looked upon as the commencement of a
drain from that point. Another bank sent
■5275, C00 to Kentucky. « These are the largest
and most imporfaof shipments to-day. The bids
for OomiHlifld gold to-day aggregated 81,493,-
fli'O at 124u125}. •
Tlie Foreige Exchange Market is dull and
heavy. The gold market continues on a
downward .course, opening at 125] and de

'and lower. with the exception of
.Heading, Northwestern . and b.'rie,
which ate steady. Beading is more active
at ibut Mi. The new lawsuits in regard to Brie
aroused the common stock from its lethargy,

tion proposed for: the National organization.;
Mrs. Livermore announced that she had re
ceived a letter from Henry,'Ward Bceeher,
'consenting to he President of the proposed
National organisation', and thereupon, with
out w aiting to adopt the- Constitution, a mo
tion was made and .carried,, .electing Mr.
Beecher as such' Pfesideht—Miss Hall, of To
ledo, voting alone in tho negative. ,
• When the 1 convention reassembled to-day
thd hall was well-filled, the delegates' occupy-'
iDgthe frontrow of Seats, and the spectators, 1
ailarge proportion of whom were citizens, of
Cleveland, the remainder of the hall and gal
leries. After.some, personal explanations tho ,
draft of the constitution reported by tho Com
mittee on Organization was taken up,and gave
rise to an animated : discussion, interrupted at
one time by the advent of Mrs. Bickadike
.upon tho platform, who was , recoived with,
great applause. .
ffhe section providing' for the election of
officers created an animated discussion be
tween Lucy Stone, Mrs. Blackwell, H. S.
"Foster, Mrs. Livermore, Mrs. Antoinette
Brown Blackwell, Judge Broadwel); Julia
Ward Howe and Rev. Mrs.Hannaford. Tho.
section roads as follows; “All officers'shall'

■ ■ “Grace Greenwood.”
The clause providing that as far as possible
tile officers shall bo orie-half males and one

the Rev. Mr. McConnell, of Ohio, to strike

many good men as Women. The amendment
pro vailed,and the section was adopted that no
distinction of sex .shall be allowed in the elec
tion of officers or members.
