F L rzialiMAWof Americans will he given to the French government in the present crisis. that any intelligent than lii this country should regard the ferocious dema alnittb,44ltecliefortivith any feelings;but of disgust and horror. Rochefort has striven *ltb4fll'lds Might to inflame the passions of an dultable poop; to excite- the lawless' 'mob to insurrection and riot, sud . to burl France, into a revointlon which conid only result in disaster ter,the liherties of the people. , ./(his , designs ` Dad succeeded yesterday, and a really,formida bWinob lad• threatened , the'. safety, of Pails, the government could bevel:lad but oni3 course 4pursne : the riot Mist have been Suppirossed: forcibly afany,sacrifice. e would; hiye done this in Philadelplda3 and it is the first duty of authority anywhere, whether ,in free America our despotic .France. If the troops bad swept she streets with grapeshot, and destroyed •the defenders of the barricades, •we '-could I found-no fault with• the- act. There is not any doubt-that the mass of the Parisian people • deplored the recourse to inob-vfolenee, and for She sake of the safety of . their persons and property earnestly desired an emphatic asser tion oftl4 supreme anthority of the law. The first duty of the GoVernment is to these citizens; and it is certain ;that the Emperor would not have hieltated to perform this duty at any myerifice, Fortunately there was no need to use the Military force. .We cannot praise too warn:4'ole patient moderation •that withheld the:troops and left the settlement of the diffi malty entirely to the civil powers.' I , Tot• only was.a ,serious cordlietpreventahy this policy, but the dignity and authority of the Govern ment were more, surely vindicated than they could have been :by an exhibition of reckless violence. The,crisis 'of the outbreak has passed'; Paris is tranquil, and there is little danger of a repe titieri of the scenes of yesterday. The prosecution of Rochefort must now proceed, for the .Minis try cannot afford to 'retreat from their position with respect to his seditious utterances. But we think that Gllivier and his colleagues' by this outbreak have beon convicted of having made a griettnis blunder. It Was a mistake to pay any,officiaT attention to" Roche:fort's - vain babbiings. That 'was what. he, earnestly de sired ; With Out it be would have peen a non entity: :When the .Emperor permitted him to come to — Paris, and refused to heed his foul slandeii;she sank quickly in popular estimation. Theymitider of Noir gave him a 'lie*• oppor tunity; but if the Ministry bad proceeded quietly with the prosecution of Prince Bonaparte and let Rochefort alone, there would have been no ,tirouble.; It was plainly evident to the people that the liberal reforms were to be instituted with honesty and sincerity. If, then, impartial justice had been dealt to the guilty Prince, and it had been made dear that the Government intended to:proceed toward its object with a single re gard for the interestamf France, Rochefort .might have shouted himself hoarse and there would have been sone to heed him. He courted persecution, longed for it, and would have fallen into obscurity without it. If he is convicted in the coming trial the wisest thing for the Government to do, baying justified itsclf p will be to pardon him, and treat him in the..future withcontempt. France wants the liberty of a et constitutional governtnent, controlled by a responsible ministry, not the Red RepUblican anarchy of which Rochefort is the apostle. TUB GEFULOP NORMAL .SCHOOL: It will be a source of general satisfaction that the Board -of Controllers of the -Public Schools have taken up the urgent case of the CAB' Normal School, and yesterday adopted the report presented by Mr. Steinmetz, setting o 1• b the pressing Pecessity , of an enlarged ac eo moda.tion for allot important department of Khoo' system. The Board asks Councils ,to appropriate the northeast section of Penn -*nate for the erection.of a suitable building for,the Normal School, and .It, is difficult to suggest any purpose to which that ground Gould he better devoted. The Girls' Normal School is an institution in which.. Philadelphia already takes much pride, and which al ready exerts a Uglily beneficial in fluence upon our whole system of popular education. But -it is crowded away, at' present, in au obscure back street, in a building wholly inadequate for its proper de mands, and its usefulness and efficiency are dwatCed and cramped for want of such a build ing ae would accommodate its classes, and afford doll scope for the development of the adrnirahle system under which it is now con ducted. The mere mention of appropriating one pfJhe Penn squares to this, or to any worthy 4ohject, will, of course, rally a fierce opposition on the pact of those who are op posed to &Utilizing any' public property unless some , interest of their own' can be promoted,at thesame tinffie. But if the mem bers of Ceutulits who really believe that educe tion;in its highest .attainahie foam, is a neces sity of an advancing civiNzation, and not merely a luxurY of doubtfo‘l propriety, will come manfully forward to fart her the ,request of the Controllers, Philadelphi's may, in a very short time, and' .at a very itaocierate ex pense, erect a monument to the calve of popu lar education, of which she ' will ,'e forever proud, and a centre of educational i'efinenee, which will he felt for good to the , latest Nenera tions of this community. The Normal School Committee, in then * re port made yesterday, refer to the subject of the overcrowding of the commencement occasiolLs of the School, and adopt the . suggestion made* by the BULLBTIN, tliat au admission fee be demanded, in order to check the present tre mendous pressure for admission to these popu lar and attractive exhibitions. The Commit tee, however, carries this desirable reform a lit tle too far in recommending that the free admis sions shail be limited to the Board of Control lers. It elmuld be borne in mind by the gen, tlemen of the School Biyard that these ,com mencement exerciseaV4 ttlier ' to the - seal; enterprise - and .. ability et • the teachers and pupil '4sf tit6Norinal School.

Nor do we suppose that this ale 'the • intent of Mr. Steinmetz's report: '.The'grathrating class and the staff of the School should undoubtedly be , furnished with a moderate number' of adtnis sions, and her the " Dead-head-Line" should be drawn Not having seen the report of 'the Committee in fulf, we imagine there must lye an error m the statement of someof the' morning papers that it recoromends a return to the assembly room of the Normal School, for the ceretuence-' silents. As that . roor will net. dontairt - the pupils themselves, it is difficult, to see bow, it can be made to serve the purpose of the' send annual commencements, even if they were cut down to the most modest proportions. Possibly, the report refers to the , prospectiye assembly room hi the new building. cerium PIJNIFIIIMENT BY MA • .

Brit the Modes of killing according to law vary considerably.. After considering all .the varionamddes legalized' indifferent Parts Of the wdrld4anging, ilecapitatinv garriting, Bari-kari,&c.- 7 wehaVe come the conclusion that the . raost disgusting and barbarous is the' American and English mode—hanging. , With this concliiiimi, for a beginning,,as an Irish- Man might say, the question as to the , best way of putting a cOMlOnned man to death may. be easily considered.' The The gUilleitine 'is the • French niftchine for Performing capital, , ,punishment: dt: is a very ingenious andsomewhat t. inpicate contrivance, that does its work speedily and surely, no in stance .of failure or delay ever 'having come to our knowledge. But it has 'associations con-, nected with the period of its 'invention and the frightful' work it did among women and children , as well ai men, in tiro first French Revolution, that make modern human and humane beings; Outside of France,.shrink from, its adoption. •The garrote,or garrote vile of Spanish countries, by which a condemned man, faStened securely Ma seat, is quickly, quietly and ,surely choked to death, seems to be better than either hang ing.or guillotining. There is no danger of the . shocking scenes that sometimes occur from the breakindor slipping of the rope in hanging; and there is none of Allot particular horror that must always attend the severing of the, heag from tbe body, as in, the girillotine. Of the . , orieotal legal, methods or, putting people to death, we have nothing to say as favorable as vvlat may be said of either the 'French - or the Spanish method. , . But neither one of these 'meets entirely the requirements of a civilized age: This prog,res sive and enlightened. ArderiCaii nation, whose , ingenuity and humanity are alike, distinguished ought, to be able to devise ; some contrivance forallicting capital punishment better than • any yet, - invented. if criminals must be killed r the killing ought to be as quietly and quickly done as possible. .A cendemned scoundrel like Troppman, or Probst, or Arthur Spring,•ought, to' have no cereinony around his death-scene:; for some of such scoundrels go: off, Iv the rope or the knife, in a sort of apoth eosis, the prospect of which is almost glorious to n . depraved mind. , Guillotine or gallows. becomes a step to that notoriety which a vul gar•brute prizes as much as life. Now if any American of ingenuity. could contrive a ma chine by which capital punishment could be made simple, easy, sure, and at•the same time , utterly Ignominious, he would deserve a re ward surpassing those given to the inventors of either the garrote, or_ the guillotine. At any rate, the barbarous rope ought to be abolished. ALIJUNI IIE•IINIONS. It speaks well for the improving educational tone of the country that a rapidly increasing ;interest is being manifested among the gradu ates of the various colleges and universities, in -behalf of the institutions to which they: are indebted for their intellectual acquirements. Alumni associations are constantly on the in crease, so that in'all the principal cities there are now social organizations repreienting al- Most every important centre of learning in the country. Yesterday; the venerable BrOivn University, * around which Providende 'ha's grown into a large city, from the little town where it was planted one hundred and eight years ago, by the Baptist Association of Philadelphia, cele brated its first Alumni re-union in this city. The occasion, though a semi-private one, was an extremely interesting one, gathering to gether the scattered sons of a revered Alma .Mater,to renew their old associations and, what is more to the purpose, to encourage each other in practical efforts to extend and perpetuate the usefulness of solid "Old Brown." . Among the tlittinguished sons of Brown University assem bled on this occasion, were the Revs. M. A. DeWolfe Howe, D.D.; George Dana Hoard- . man,,D.D. ; George W. Samson; D.D., of co luinbia College; Justin R. Loomis, D.D., of Lewisburg University; Warren Randolph, 1),I).; Professor Lincoln, of Brown University; Charles Thurber, Esq., Brooklyn, and other eminent gentlemen. This pleasant re-vtion brought; out the fact that the oldest living honorary Waren - tut' of Brown University is the venerable Horace Binney, and his letter of reply to the invitation to be present is well worth reproducing, as a specimen of the chaste stylv and still vigorous . mind of this aged gentleman, now, more than ever, held in reverent esteem by the people of Philadelphia. 31ir.

The interest on the old State debt was also paid, for several years, in greenbacks.

What does May* Fox propose to say or do about the presentment of the GrXnd 'Jury touch ing the eondition of his station-houses? That body has officially denounced them for their filthy condition, and presented one of them, in Fifteenth street, as a nuisance.. Mr. 'Fox will, of course, say, that it is not his fault. He will endeavor to '‘Shift the responsibility upon the Police'' Committee of Council, .or upon any one else on whom he thinks he ean . .lay it. But the disagreeable fact remains that the re sponsibility is wholly his WM.

WasirroN.—The mem bers of the Bar held a meeting in 'the Nisi Prins Court room to take action in reference 10 tbe (Watt of. the late George M. Wharton. lion. James Thompson, Chief Justice of the Bripreme Count was called to , the chair, and Newts. Edward tildppen and Henry E. Busch were chosen secretarbai. The President, in announcing the object of the meeting, said that his Acquaintance with the deceased was 'cOmparatively recent. and only dated back about ft dozen years. When he first came here he felt the acquaintance through Mr. Wharton's character which per vaded all society. It wan stainless and spot. leas of all moral charges. It is so now and • will remain so forever. • He (the speaker) had. known Mr, ;Wharton mainly as a lawyer. lie often appeared in the [supreme Court, and by his placid, kind and benevolent Noun- tenance and demeanor all were wont to listen o hind, and attention was fixed- upon him when, he stated his ease. His beauty of die, tion, grace of elocution, and purity of logic, added - to his earnestness, and the fail faith and confidence In the truth of what he as. sertcd, and his unblemished integrity, gave great power to his argemeuts. :tar. Wharton, as a lawyer, stood in the community without a superior (and that is no disparagement), and with, few equals. Ala.s that such a man shoidd die before his day of usefulness was entirely over. Hon. Peter McCall, as a friend of the-de ceased, thanked the Chief Justice for the high encomlurnii which he had passed on the char acter of Mr. Wharton: Much 'which he had intended to say had been anticipated in the remarks of the President. Mr. Wharton was not one who had been long removed from among his protessiunal brethren, but he was known by all, admired and loved, and they could , hardly realize that he has gone. It seems that they coidd almost see bun in this room, which was the theatre of so many of bis labors and trials, and hear his clear voice in a calm and quiet manner stating his propositions. The speaker then referred at length to the life and character of the decea.sed. lie was a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania, and the Alumni of that institution point to him with becoming pride. By his own indus try and efforts, he attained the highest . posi O b - en at the bar, and built up alarge, lucrative and general practice, for he had uo specialty. He Was asincere, religions. man--a .firm and devout believer. in the truths of Christianity. In the church of which he was a member he was looked up to with a deference and respect which very few enjoyed,. and in the annual conventions tO counsels will be sadly missed. Mr. McCall concluded his address by tainting the following: Bete/eat, That we deeply deplore the lose which the far hos FURiaineta by the decease of Our late hoilerod as sociate; (joorge Jli Wharten. His 'long and successful profeestaul career redlec teluatre on the liar of which he wee an acknowledged leader. His reputation as it lawyer was built open the solid foundations of thorough know= ledge, ability multiform! worth. He brought tone pnte rice of the profeseion a clear, well-balanced and CUM voted mind ; contend discriminatintjudtmlent ; learn ing varietal, extensive sod attractive; Industry that never tired, and a devotion to the cause of his client, tempered by due fidelity to the Conrt. Prudent and gaga vie& In counsel, he was not less distinguished by the clearnees, cogency anti persuasive power of his forensic efforts; amenity and wood temper evercharactorized his Iteportnient,end his profeesiunal excellence Ilf rilf crowned by a devotee tone of morals end unblemi abed personal character, which secured to him the confidence alike of the Bench, the liar. and the public. Resoltvd, That the lose of inch a man le deeply felt by the plefession, and not only by the profession but by the commuhity nt large. who were benefited by the example of adherence to principle, devotion to duty and spotless intearity which his daily walk through life exhibited, displaying the virtues and the graces that adorn the character of a Christian gentleman. Resolved. That the liar deepir sympathize with the family of the &emigre] in their bereavement, and that a ememittee be appointed to communicate to them tho proceedings of this meeting and to tender to them the respectful condolence , of the Bar.

StIPREIIE C VILT--Jusuces Read, Agnew, Sbarswooil and Willituris.--The ease a - Dr. ISeboeppe was resumed this morning, Mr. Miller again addressing the Court in continua- I tion of his argument in support of the writ of : error. He again gave considerable time to the discnssion of the medical , testimony, call-; lug attention to the opinion of medical experts, which should have induced the, court below to ibsnmet the jury that, the Commonwealth; blur failed . to prove that Miss , Steinnecke's death was caused by poison. Mr. Maclaughliti, for the Commonwealth, followed in opposition, contending that the proshoutor WEIR bound only to prove that Miss Steinnecke died from . some , poisoU, but was not required to prove whit particular' kind. 1 Independent of this, Dr. Aiken did take the I proper Ord scientific means to ascertain if prussic acid was in the atoinaoh,and in his testa he is Supported by the oelebrated - Caspar, who approves of the methods adopted by Dr. Aiken, He contended that the defence did not' affect the Commonwealth's 'case by medical' testimony, for these witnesses were not asked o piste their opinion, of the, cause of Miss feintseckes death: On the trial the ( n,... mbnwealth alleged 'that' inerphi#:, was , t1)" . 9 chief causes of deaths butt that prussic acid was alto present, and the medical testimony Ris TII.E DAILY EVENING BULLETIN-r-PIIILADELPIIIA„ WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 9,1870 ported the theory.

He quoted from.the in structions to the jury in support of thi s p ositi on. The defence ask the court , to exclude Dr. Aiken when he refers to prussic acid, but they embrace him When he tmeaks of the absence of merphia. Even the College of Rhysimans admit that there is "little" evidence, to Judi? eats that death was caused by poison. Dr. Aiken is supported by a king array of =alien ti es, and'the corpus dtlictrwas established by Dr. Conrad,vrho made the post mortein exam , ination and found no natural cause of death, and the - nurse who attended Miss Stein neck° the, night before her .. ; death in painting the dying hour, states, these facts which indicate that the deceased was suffer ing front' a narcotic.

Judge Sherwood here inquired if Doctor Eithoeppe gave Miss Steinneeke the emetic before or after the poison, if poison was ad ministered. Mr. 'Brewster, in reply, said that an emetic might be " considered an antidote,, but the theory of the Commonwealth was that it was administered before the poison. But what did Dr. Schoeppe give her for her ailment? Where is Ms prescriptiou? Where • is the apothecary who compounded it?. A week after death,' when . he is advised too. go ' to' Baltimore •to have. the body exhumed as a matter'' of justice to himself , " he replies: " Oh, the medicine she has taken has .evaporated by this time?' The counsel referred ,to cases of death from poisoning Where no trace_ of the poison was found in the body. In . the pre.sent' case, Miss Steinnecke's death took place font' daya affer"Vsreoner rifebaile br - prittfild 'acid by Dr. Schoeppe; and flitl• date of the will, front the circumstances connected with it,was yid( inly'ante•datt 41,and Made ebouttlie same time of the purchase of Poisen • Referring to the complaint of the,,lndge's charge, be contended that it was a model of latrness.to the prisoner: Closing, Mr.Brewtiter raid : lf,fron4the first to the lastyon can find any line or word which creates.a, fair and reasonable doubt as to this man's guilt; or, even presmning him to be guilty,yon can find aline or word tlidt shows- that- he had not a fair and impartialtrial, I.join hands-with' :the gentlemen on the other side, and urge with all the earnestness 'of'toy nature that you grant him a new trial. It, on the other band, this cannot. be doue, then, as an, humble minister of the law, it is my duty to ask you to affirm this judgment." SanitiO Hepburn. Jr., for, the prisoner:: closed the argument, urging that all the ac ensed demanded was that the rules and prin-. ciplcs applicable to testimony in a case of homicide should be regarded by the Court below. The judge was bound to protect the rights of the prisoner, and in the analysis of Dr. Aiken, the testimony not showing that death. from natural, causes was impos sible, the judge, should .have so instructed the jury that no poison was detected in the body, and not allow the jury, to decide it for themselves. Dr. Conrad's post-ntoptem examination was a slrivenly one, the doctor being privately, engaged and pri vately paid for. And the testimony establishes that the post-niortent was worth nothing. be canse it did not extend to an examination of all portions of the body. The prisoner asked that the Court below, in allowing evidence of guilt, should have confined it to those facts and-circumstances which- indicated guilty knowledge—anticipating death, and move ments ; but motives khave no pest in such nu inquiry,, and yet motives were left to the jury. •• The Court had no right in a case of life and death to allow opinions to be given based upon a hypothetical case. It was wrong -in that 'hypothetical case to present "all the facts on the one side and Ignore all those on the other side. A hypothetical case should embrace all the uncontradicted facts in the case beforethe Court. At the close of Mr. Hepburn's address, the Court took the case under consideratiou.
