CAPITAX PUNISHMENT. I observe that your dtixen* are divided in opio- Uto on subject of.* Capital Puni&ment,’ and the conducing of the preu, have, asjstOth token Gifi frrent side* of the question. Tho matter is entire. |y practical. Iteoncemi us aO, for if the ancient tnd respectable State of Pennsylvania shall be be trayed into a grave error on tbis Subject, there is too ranch reason.to fear that Ohio and other Statu will follow the example. I, therefore, moatreluc. -Ufitly resign the prospect of a leisure and ease, in order to present to the public a few sug. gestions, relative to this important subject [ The opponents of the “death penalty,” u they choose to term it generally favor twopropositions. The one ia the mtir object of all homan punish meat ought to be the reformation of the criminal; and the other is that capital punishment, not hav. ing tuch an object in view, ia merely vindictive and a relic of baibarism. Both those postulates appur prominently in an editorial of the Commci ctal. To arrive at troth it ia necessary to make right beginning. Can any buman'Legislature rightful ly propose the reformation of the criminal, as the main design of its penal euectmcnt! Can any homan tribunal rightfully propose tho reformation of the criminal, u the chief aim of tho penal sen traces, which it pronounce* 1 Tho advocates for the abolitioo of capital punishment will, without the least hesitation, answer these questions in the affirmative. They continually assert the truth ol these extremely doabtfuLproposilions. In almost every essay, which they write, they treat them as unquestionable axioms. It might servo to abate their confideneo in these dogmas, il they would recollect, that ever; tribunal which has professed to proceed upou those principles, that ii'iu tcch nicsl phrase “for tho good of tho c(Trader's soul,** has in fact, been a horrid despotism. Witness the English Star-Chamber and tho Spanish Inquisi tion. From such disastrous conclusions we may suspect some fiitsouudnca* in the premises. From whence then arises tho right of tho hu- man Legislator, to forbid some modes of action, to visit them with penalties, prisons, chains, compul sory labor, and other infliction*. But one answer can be given to this question. HU warrant Uto be found in tho absolute necessity of providing for the safety and well being of society, and it is to .be found no where else. Wo arrest the horse thief as a mischievous offender; and *ha| him in prison to involuntary labor. The blasphemer may, in the solitary desert contract much more atrocious -guilt in (he eye af omniscience and may disco' much deeper malignity of heart yet as his crimes do not invade; (he right of other men, no jurat, do reflecting man will pretend to interfere, with or molest him. . . i To descent! from more atrocious to more venial >ffonccs. P.ublic drankanneai may be rightfully forbidden by the human legislator and-panhhed by the civil magistrate, for it is pernicious to soci. ely. Private drankennew, committed in the reces ses of a nun's own habitation, however, injurious to the individual, oogbt not to be animadverted upon by the civil magistrate. To do so would be to invade the prerogative of the Supremo Being; to perish for the reformation of the offender, "for the goaod of his soul,” and to tread upon unsafe grounds. Even in the case of the horse thief, it is not the mere abstract guilt of hi* conduct that we deal with. Werett rendered.perfeclly and infallibly certain that another theft would never be committed, we ooght instantly to discharge him. Tojdetaln him -under tmeb-circumstance* would be a mere wan ton exercise of power. From all this U arises that the true end and aim of Uws, and punishments, are to provide for the safety of the good citiztna, by the prevention of crime. As an end, subordinate and auxiliary to tbis.'the' reformation of the crim inal may well be sought after.. It graufiga our be nevolence, when it can be accomplish), .as a J means of preventing crimr; but the reflecting man { will find every other hypothesis incumbent with ! difficulties, and conclude without doubt, that the | true object of pQnisbment U the safely of the cit izens. To deny this would be to ptefer the bad I to the good, the guilty to the innocent, a few ofiirn-! ders to (be community at Urge. We will suppose.] that the advocates and the opponents of our prea-'i ent law, of punishment, concur in considering the ! safety of the citizens as the great object to be ob* I tamed. The qura'ion then is, bow shall we pre* { serve the lovely matron, sleeping in the midst of j ber innocent babes, from the dagger of the mid-1 night assassin,—how sbatl we prevent the ruffian, j who has robbed and maltreated the solitary tr*v- j eller, from ridding himself of a witness by murder- j daring his victim. Oar legislator says, “do not Qua or you shall be condoned to prison and bang ed by the neck until you are dead.” The legisla tor of our opponents says, “do not this or you shall be conducted’ to prison and compelled to labor.” Which monition will act mo'st~f.ircibly upon the mindrof the evil disposed 1 - I arrived at the era. ] tluatou that the former will prove the more rffret ual. The love of life and horror of death are in stinclive. They are implanted in the human breast by the great Author of-Natnre. Men have no choiee, whether they will feel their influence or not. TbU influence is in fact felt aUko tiy the good and the'had, with this additional circum stance in the case of the guilty, that to them death is clothed with tenfold terrors. The very horror which some of the benevolent tnd well meaning advocate* of abolition, express on tho nnbject of capital punishment, if rightly considered, «ffjid* the most cogent argument against the measure. The low and grovelling and guilty assassin j feel* the same dread and the samo horror, without j any of the • benevolence and conscientiousness which actuate many of oor opponents in this con troversy. Let it be consideredllhat all questions abeat passions, or human infirmity, or homicide, occurring in sudden affrays, or sccidentsl ren coontres, are to be laid completely out of the care. No one proposes to increase the seventy of our present criminal code. The only ques-1 tioo is, bow shall the hand of the guilty aasas sic, of the the. loathsome wntch disposed to com- ] mix the most etrodous form of murder, be most | effectually stayed. In such a caso, shall we not ose oor utmost sagacity to discover the strobg* eat instincts of (he criminal, and address our selves to them. Bhall we falter! Shall we not denounce to attrocious mind thus criminal ly disposed, the sentence which will be to him most appalling! Shall we weigh tho life and safety of the innocent, the generous end the, good against ths interests of snv number of atro-' emu* assassin*! Men .whose minds are consti* toted like the subscribers, would not sacrifice one innocent victim for the sake of any num ber of ruffians. I appeal to our opponents to say whether It is not at least highly prebable, that the prospect of death dues not convey more terror to the guilty mind riian the prospect o! imorovement end labor. The subscriber enter tains no doubt on the subject, but if high pro babitily be attained. It is ell that can reasonably be required, for demonstration is not to be ex pected out of the pale of pure mathematics— Boms of our opponents almost concede the su perior efficacy of the “death penalty” by siroply pleading the reluctance of juries to convict,which, as they affirm, render* the infliction of the pun ishment uncertain, and favors tho escape of the goilty. Is the law of Capital Punishment right or wrong! If right, we may lay ont of the case all consideration of the reluctance of ju* ries, and the .weakness and hesitancy of prose cuting attorneys to perform their duties. It is, or ought to be (he basinets of the public pres* to correct public sentiment, when erroneous, .not to (rookie to it. Moreover, very many re flecting men strongly suspect that this reluctance it only part and parcel of that maudlin sympa thy with the [criminals, and offenders, and de faulters, end dishonest debtor* and delinquents of every class enjl grade, which is fostered and matured by the wiaby-wasby periodical litera ture of (be present day. But have we eny greater certainty that the pun ishment of imprisonment end’labor would be uni> formly inflicted. Our candid opponents know tbst we have not To say nothing of the chances of escape, the pardoning power insures this result. If we have one elite opposed to capital punish ment, we have, as facts speak, a still more nume rous class opposed to all punishment whatever. It is highly probable tbst there is not a single mur derer in the Ohio or Pennsylvania Btate Prisons who has not bad petitions fat hi* pardon repeated ly presented, signed by regiments of sympathise!*. The horrid parricide, whoso crime was committed under.circumstances this most atrocious -and ap palling, forms 1 no exception to ibis remark. It is idle to talk ofjthe certainty of punishment upon either scheme until we go manfully to work and destroy that morbid sympathy with crime, which is the disgrace] and the weakness of the nineteenth century. r. -J-' • . There is still ono more consideration. Nowise legislator confounds the different degrees of guilt by denouncing the saq»,o penalty upon crimes of unequal turpitude. If we abolish capital punish ment, bow shall wo deviad a proper seals of pen* shirs fori crimes. Murder in the second degree deserves perpetual imprisonment and labor; upon, the scheme of ;oar opponents, wbal else shell we reserve the murderer in the first degree! Whit; punishment shell we denounce against parsons, condemned to perpetual imprisonment who mur-, dcr their guards and attendants! Again, wo now threaten ths highway robber with imprisonment and labqr; if We abolish capital punishment, have wo not reason to fear that the ruffian 'will balance the chances of : e longer imprisonment against tho hopes of to|st escape,' by murderiog tho witness, in the person of his victim. • Every vae which I have been able to Uke of the subject, shows the aboli’ion of capital punishment lobe uncalled for and inexpedient The Journal speaks of the intended execution of Raids) air ah act of vengeance sod s relic of barbarism. Ifthe principles Itid down in the foregoing part of this essay be correct, a capital execution ia intended merely for the prevention ur*niigtMayr Revenge is norths motive oflhe legislator who dcfioM the crime, or of the judge who proneoncea sentence. Aa to barbarian, has that editor read the history of oar own amcetlote; if be has, he knorir- that tight or nine'centuries ago -capital punishment did not exist amoogtt them; but mur der and asMsdnation did. And every man's ills i bad its price, from the highest noble to the lowest slave. This price was called were.gi!d, and was nothing more nor leas than pecuniary fine paid for murder, regulated according to the rank of the victim. Capital punishment is an after thought, an invention ol later time*. Is the nineteenth century less civilized or lers enlightened than the ninth! Or is homan life again to be rendered cheaper amongst os than in other ages andcouo triea! In conclusion, if the editor of the Joarnal will come to the point and show os tbst the live* of the good diiteo* will be more secure upon bis system than upon ours, we will listen to him with the utmost attention. Bat we listen'perfectly un moved and without tjxe least conviction to his an imadversions opon the impropriety of cutting a man off io the prime of his strength, tnd other common places of the samenstare. Our sympa thies ere entirely frozen up when we remember that tbs man in queatioo was a necemry sacri fice to the ou'rsged justice of his country. The subject to me is a painful one. 1 came to this city fur res>, recreation and repose in the so ciety, of relatives and friends. Nothing eould bare stimulated roe to write on this subject at pre sent, or to write at all, except that torture which is inflicted upon the minds of tho serious and re* flocting part of community, by the perpetual at. tack* of • portion of th« press upon the security of life, of property, of reputation, of ovary right that we holJ most dear, ezcopl “tho largest liber ty’.” And the liberty which nnny of these gen tlemen seem laboring to introduce, is so neatly of kin to utlrr licrariousueas, that il baa no value in | my eyes. I feel bound on all suitable occasions to endeavor to stem that torrent of uttraism and innovation which, unless vigorously opposed, bids fair to sweep away every thing in oar institutions worth preserving. This must t* my apology for troubling you on the present occasion. E. A./ Warran* I’lvrrasTiAßT.-We are glad to learn that tho number uf prisoner* in tho Penitentiary have been reduced from 170 to 117. The redoe. lion to the present number has been gradual, but constant. The number received at the prison last year were 60, and the nutbber discharged 64. At the commencement of tho year there were 130 inmates, and the norober in prison now is reduced thirteen. We learn from the report of the war den that the whole number received at the prison from ils opening July 1, 1826, upto May 1,1837 was 1176—992 white males.and 20.female*—160 colored males, and 33 females. "We have bad occasion to visit most of the pris ons of New England and New York, as well as many of the prisons in Europe, snd our convic tion is that the Western Penitentiary is among the beatcnoducisd we have ever seen. We have seen the “congregated” syalem in the full tide of tuccesaful experiment, and the “separate” system io its worst and best aspect*, from Newgate to the beat Penitentiaries uf the Uoiled Statre- We think the reasons given fur the “Separate” system are nut to be smwereJ, and .that while the punishment is as severe, the refirm is much great* The good order, neatness and economy of the J Western Penitentiary we have raiely aeen equal. I jed and never surpassed. We assure Major Bscs-' sax, the Warden, that be is doing good oer-j service to the'Stale and mankind by his efforts to ' temper mercy with judgment, in his superintend- | coca of the unfortunate men over whom he has 1 control. The success, too, which has attended the ] Libor of tbit establishment is deserving of all l praigj to the Warden and the officers under his di- ! rection. Ti e work of the prisoners would j do credit to soy class of workmen, add the fact! that an institution like .his, supplied with every comfort for tho prisoner, and every needful atten dance for his epiritnal and physical welfare, is pro vided without cost to the Stale, speaks more than words can do in fevjr of. tho Irisri'ulraa. The building and grounds of the Western Penitentia ry remind one rather of an European castle nr palace than a prison. Windsor castle docs no* look much better from the outside thin our West* sro Penitentiary with it* high towers and walls. The buildings are an ornament to tho Hfeie, and the whole arrangement highly cxcdi'.ablo to thoa* who hav* charge uf their management. - Tnt stobi or hist a vouxa ha*.—Wej have read with deep interest the report of Rev.

Mr. While gives the following incident of one of his visits and it ia la introduce this that we make re ference to the subject. Speaking of ono of Ihe young men in the Penitentiary, he gives bis con* venation as follows: “I commenced my course by disobedience to ray mother in staying out late at night; Itezt I visited the theatre, and desecrated the Sabbath day. This led me into bad company. Hera I began to gamble and waa often stripped of .my last cent. To raiio ray spirits, I began to drink; and while on a spree ! committed this bloody crime, which will link my name with infamy— break my mother's heart-disgrace my'poor tia tere, and send me to my grave, with, a dagger in my aoul. I wish I could become stupid; but my corse is, lam obliged to think. ! wish for death, and yet fear to meet my God." Here the poor boy tankdowo upon his couch, and gave vent to his overflowing agonies in sobs and tears. Others there are who are hardened, wretched and lost.
