Tln Penal Code.
[From the Loot Intolligencor.l
Before us is the Report of the Commissioners
who were appointed, under a resolution of the
Legislature of the 111th April, 1858, to revise the
Penal Coda of the State, together with copies of
two bills incorporating the results of their labors,
and which are submitted to the Legislature for its
approval. We have jjad time scarcely to do more
than to glance over these documents, and aro
neither prepared nor willing, without a more care.
ful examination, to criticise a work of such magni
tude and impertanee as this. Wo will say. how•
over, that tho high and honorable duty which tho
Legislature imposed upon the Commissioners, has
been discharged with a degree of ability and
fidelity that entitles them to the most unqualified
praise.
Six years ego a commission was appointed by the
British Parliament to revise and consolidate the
Statute-law of the Realm. It was composed of
some of the most eminent and practical men at the
English Bar. They called to their assistance a
legion of subaltern draftsmen, to whom were con
fided the more mechanical parts of tho employ
ment. Twenty thousand pounds have already
boon expended, and to this hour, it is said, the
Statute Law Commission have not borne fruit In
the shape of one consolidated statute. It is tree
that the undertaking of the British Commissioners
was more gigantic and formidable than that of our
own; the sphere of their duty was infinitely wider.
The whole corpus of the English written law was
submitted to them for revision, arrangement, and
consolidation, while the Pennsylvania Commission
ers have had to do with a special, and that not the
most intricate, department of our Jurisprudence.
In lees than two years, Judge King, end his nese.
elates, Messrs. Knox and Webster, have returned
to the Legislature the commission that they had
received at its hands They have presented for
the acceptance of that body n cosmic system of
criminal law, wrought out with rare skill from a
chaotic mass of enactments that had boon thrown
won the statute-book from time to time, during a
period of a hundred and sixty years, as the necessi
ties of the day required.
From these confused and heterogeneous mate
rials they have selected all that is applicahlo to
the existing condition of society; they have ex
purgated what is inapplicable to its present stage
of civilization, and all' thnt hail n temporary aim,
and should, therefore, have a temporary ex
istence ; they have supplitd omissions and cured
defects; they have arranged the code under ap
propriate titles and divisions; they have brought
to bear upon the great subject of crimes and pun
ishments, which, close Bentham wrote his im
mortal work, has been the earnest study of the
greatest English, 4inerioan, and Continental
jurists, mach of the light that is born of pure phi
losophic speculation, and all the knowledge that
may be obtained by long experience in the prite
tient administration of criminal justice. They
hnverdone all this, while the English Commission
have been six years at work, expending one hun
dred thousand dollars, but without producing
single tangible result in the arrangement and
simplification of the statute law, or even develop
inn, any plan, clear and definite, by which their
object may be attained.
The Commissioners, as our readers know, wore
not entrusted with the Codification of the crimi
nal law, in the technical sense of that term.
dare not advise to mist the law into a new mould,"
said Sir Francis Bacon (not then Lord Vorulam) to
the king. " The work which I propound tendeth
to pruning and grafting the law, and not to
ploughing and planting it again; for such a remove
1 should hold, indeed, for a perilous innovation."
Our commission have contented themselves with
I- pruning and grafting the law," and wisely, too,
we think.
"A multitude of penal laws," the great lawyer
and philosopher again observes, "are worse than
showers of hail, or tempest upon cattle, for they
fall upon men. * *lt is ever a rule that any
over•great penalty, besides the acerbity of it,
deadens the execution of the law. There is a
further inconvenience of penal laws, obsolete and
out of use ; for that it brings a gangrene, neglect,
and habit of disobedience upon other wholesome
laws, that are fit to be continued In practice and
execution, so that our 'awe endure the torment of
ozentius:
'The living die in the arms of tho dead.'
There is such an aeoutnulation:of statutes con
cerning one matter, and they so cross and intricate,
as the certainty of law is lost in the heap."
We could think of no better way of expressing
the plan adopted by the commission than by
em
ploying the quaint but admirable words of Bacon,
when advising his sovereign with regard to the
amendment of the laws of England. They have loft
the " entire body and substance" of the criminal
law as they found it, and have sought only to die.
charge it "of idle and unprofitable or hurtful
matter." The objects proposed to bo accomplished
are embraced in two bills: The first, "An act
to consolidate, revise, and amend the penal laws
of this Commenwealay, " the second, An act
to consolidate, revise, and amend the laws of
this Commonwealth relating to criminal pro.
oednre and pleading." A very important
feature of the system submitted, relating to
the punishment of climes, is that the maximum
amount to be inflicted is alone defined in relation
to any particular offence. The intermediate de
grees are to be determined by the courts. This
provision is wise and humane. The eircumettinees
of each One ought to determine the amount and
severity of the punishment propeeed to be inflicted
upon the guilty. The criminal law should be made
as flexible as the oonstitution of society will per.
mit. and should be so constructed so to bond easily
in the hands of those who administer it, and to
adept Itself to the multitudinous characters, dispo
sitions, and capacities of its subjects. Wo hope,
whatever else the Legislature may reject. the fea
ture of maximum punishment will bo retained.
A comprehensive section, repealing all existing
penal legislation, concludes the Mond bill. We
have the assurance of the authors of the Report,
that "no sot has been repealed which has not been
supplied, and none left unrepealed which has been
so supplied." These bills, thus profess to em
brace, in one consolidated act, all the laws of
crimes and of criminal procedure ; and the exam
ination, a very hasty ono 'tie true, that we have
given it, is sufficient to enable us to say that. the
Legislature could not do bettor than adopt theta,
leaving it to future experience to detect, and to fu
ture legislation to correct, whatever faults, of Mis

News from the Paeifie—The °verified
California Mail.
BUTTERFIELD'S OVERLAND MAIL ROUTS,
MALLORY'S FTATION, Jan. 14, 1800.
The overland mail conch, with San Francisco
dates to the December 23, arrived here at 8 o'clock
this evening.
The reported sale of the Pacific steamships to C.
Vanderbilt is generally credited. The unex
pected turn in steamship affairs, which this trans
fer necessarily involves, has been the subject of
much and grave comment. The travelling public
are expecting, as the consequence of it, extreme
rates of passage, as it is not believed probable that
any opposition will attempt a struggle against the
new order of things. The destruction of the old
line, when a strong current of population had
begun to flow into California, is regarded as a pub
lic calamity.
Considerable anxiety is felt at San Francisco on
account of the non-arrival of the clipper ship Col.
den Eagle, which sailbd from New York for that
port in May last.
A brisk competition had sprung up against the
California Steam Navigation Company's steam
ers on the inland waters of the State, and rates of
tentage between San Francisco and Sacramento
had been reduced from five dollars to ono dollar,
and even lower.
Among the recent importations at San Francisco
from Japan are some of the staple articles of that
country, such as sacks of sweet potatoes, equalling
those of North Carolina ; n largo quantity of rape
seed oil, whioh finds it good market for supplying
better burning fluid for the light houses on the
Pacific than any other used; samples of leaf to.
beoeo, exceedingly delicate, and resembling the
Havana leaf ; and fruits, isinglass, chestnuts, /to.
The latest news from Carson Valley represents
the weather as very cold, causing almost a total
cessation of mining operations. One hundred
miners wore reported to ba at Walker's river
mines, but the snow sees three feet deep, and there
was no work doing. Provisions were scarce, and
the miners were leaving in consequence. At the
head of Monroe Camp the snow was five feet deep.
The reported duel between C. R. Godfrey and
Win, A. Stoddard at Okada did sot tome off.
Stoddard failed to appear, and his second, Marquis
Levi, took his place. Levi was wounded.
A mooting of-the Railway &cativo Commit.
tee took place yesterday afternoon, December 22,
at their rooms on Montgomery street, San Fran
cisco, at which the artioles for preliminary or
ganization to construct a road from that city
to Stockton, according to the general railroad
not of 1853 and 1851, were drawn up. The
distance from San Francisco to Stockton is
320 miles, and the road is intended to
run through tho country of San Mateo, Santa
Clara, Almede, and San Joaquin. By the not ro.
farred to above $l,OOO per mile is required to be
subscribed before a company can be organised,
and a bona Ale payment of ten per cent. must be
made. Mr. Charles It. Pollhetuus, of the thin of
Alsop ,is Co.. was chosen temporary treasurer.
The amount of gold shipped by the steamship
Sonora on the 20th of December was $1,812,530,
and by the steamship Orizaba on the same day
$230,000. The latter was destined for Now Orleans.
. .
A. number of ears and a considerable quantity
of railroad iron wore being discharged from the
ship Morning Light, for the Sacramento Valley
Railroad. A great quantity of tho pieces of a
ready-rand° bridge wero also coming ashore for the
mum destination. There is no improvement in bu
s Mess.
`From the country there woe a moderato inquiry,
and the oily trade were buying small lots of goods
from first hands, but there was no life in the mar
ket whatever, and rates of provisions had further
declined. During the week business had boon
without a noticeable event, with the exception of
reaction in coal, in consequence of the reported
purchase of the Peel& Company's boats by Com
modore Vanderbilt. We quote anthracite nomi
nally at twenty dollars per ton.
But one vessel from NOW York or Boston, the
Morning Light, from tho latter place, had arrived
at San Francisco within thirty-three days, yet
prices for American imports had rather deolined
than otherwise during that period. The quotations
by last steamer's mail require no special change.
The oily is given up to preparations for the holi
day festivities, and crowded with people and goods
suited to the season.
The display of diamonds, Japanese fine crock
ery, silks, books, anti other holiday articles, for
holiday sale, exceeded anything ever known in
San Francisco before, end the disposition to pur
chase was in proportion to the unusual display of
everything offered.

Unfortunate Altuir at Cankbritlgo Col
lege.
[From the Boehm Courier.]
For some time past, certain "college tricks"
have been practised by the students of Harvard
which have been quite annoying to the
faculty and not quite eivditablo to the young men
who have performed them. Still, they were not
banging matters, nor acts requiring the employ
ment of armed force to suppress them. So much
for preface. The particular misfortune which has
involved respectable people in trouble, and plastid
the university in an unjust relation to the students
and their parents, is this:
For some time past, the Bibles of the chapels of
Harvard and Yale Colleges have been missing, and
it was known that they bad been abstracted by the
students of the respective institutions, who desired
to place the New Haven Bible in the pulpit of the
Cambridge Chapel, and, in like manner, to place
the Harvard Bible in f,ho Yale desk. The Yale
College i•jokers " had perpetrated their "joke "
At two o'clock yesterday morning, a Cambridge
student, Mr. William B. Forbes, (son of John M.
Forbes, of this city,) attempted to enter the
chapel, with a view of "sustaining the honor of
old Harvard." So far, this was harmless enough,
although a violation of college law; but young
Forbes, while entering the church, was seised
by Polieetnan Hilton, who wee placed in the
church to detect the authors of certain pre
vious misdemeanors. "A vigorous resistanee
was made," and now wo give the narrative of a
person who has a close knowledge of the facts;
during which the detective discharged his revolver,
without Injury to the student, who struck him a
heavy blow with a Baltimore billy and then sur
rendered, being apprehensive of a second shot.
The two remained in the chapel till night, where
they were found by the janitor. A hearing was
had yesterday before Justice Ladd, of Cambridge.
port, who committed the student to await the result
of the officer's wound, which, we understand, isnot
an serious ns et fret supposed.
The affair is greatly regretted by all parties. Mr.
i
Forbes is a favorite n his class. many of whom
have experienced his kindness during sickness and
doancial distress. His first act was to send a class
mate to the officer's house to express his sorrow and
to offer any possible assistance. Wo have hare given
what we believe to be a faithful statemerrt of this
unfortunate affair; and we do this itt order to
avoid misrepresentation. We cannot place the foots
before the public, however, without expressing '
our disapproval of the conduct of those who placed
un armed officer in such relations with gentlemen,.
who, though they may bo guilty of sets quite re.
prehensible in themselves, are net to be treated es
burglars and highwaymen. There was no necessi
ty fur pistols in this cuss.
No one snore keenly feels the consequences of
this misfortune than young Forbes. He regrets it
on account of the injury done to the officer, on ac
count of his orris family, and on account of the
college of which he has been a member.
The Money Market.
PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 11, 1800
The wretched weather to-day seems to have Produced
a tack of business at the stook board, as well as in all
branches of commercial (radio. At the first meeting,
thirty-four chores of Beaver Meadow stook sold at
; Lehigh Navigation, twenty -one 'hares 957 4 ; two
share. Second and Third-street Railway at &s' s ; fifty
shares Rending sold at ; 4(4 shares Girard Bank
stock at 453 i ; and twenty-eight shares Kentucky Bank
stook at ltd. At the second board, there were sold two
shares Farmers and Mechanics' Bank at 667.; ; nineteen
shares Bank of Northern Liberties at 61; three shares
Bearer at aa!4t which, with .56.260 of City -Roses, and
ST® North Pennsylvania Railroad Sixes, made up the
business of the board for the day.
Tho discussion about closing the transfer races of
Reading Railroad stock in New York and Boston, does
not exert:egged influence upon the stook in this ma•kot;
the opinion of ninny experienced brokers being that the
qu.trait y of stock that would he thrown upon this Mar
lot for sale, in Alio event of those odious being closed,
would be too great for its stren ;tli, and that the price
would fall heavily. On the oilier hand, the advocates
of closing the agencies offer several strong reason, tit
favor of such notion, and the question bide fair to be
very thoroughly investigated.
At the election held on Monday lent for president and
directors of the (Meant and Walnut Wrests Pastengor
Railway Company, two different tickets wore voted for,
and some difficulty arose es to Willett One was elected.
We learn that since then the dispute, has been mica bly
nettled and the direction hen pninscil into the hands of
the following named yentlenion President—Charles
Harlan. Directors-1.. Johnnon, Charles Combos, ft.
F. Neff, (Meilen P. Lex. Zoeller Howell, and Charles
1/Vieter. The h/Oeldleldele mar be congratulated that
the management of this company has gone into the
hall& of neon whono only object will ho to Promote its
best into resta by a faithful administration at' Ito affairs.
We could Wail that some oilier companies that wo
might onion might have the same good fortune.
It is alwaa a a favorable sign to see men of cap tat take
the control of affairs in which part of thou moans nro
invested, instead of trusting thorn to incompetent and
