"QUI CAPIT, ILLE FACIT."
"Man, in his indiidual capacity," feellng him

"at all times, and under all circumstz , noes," if it

pensity,`Tharliiii - Tittliessential is oftentimes .a
stranger to his bosom—or if it_isinlim at all, it
is so deep that it cannot "be brought to light."—
Hence we see such practical demonstrations of this
evil every day. If it.wcre not so, - why should we
find-such feelings of opposition portrayed by our
fellow.nien toward each other? Why is it else,
that-the-moat sincoreintenlions to act uprightly,
'are so glen designedly misconstrued? Why do

jurious to ;Lim against whom 07 aro directed—
but like the arrows of malice, oftentimes recoils
upon him who aimed them, and like the "Lloody

MARFA - 4EIPS SENTENCE:
By Chief Justice Buchanan.
After a rigid and .laborious examination
of many witnesses, and an attentive and pa
tient hearing of counsel in your behalf, who,
with a zeal and ability creditable to them
selves and worthy of a better cause, left 'un
done, in conducting your defence, nothing
hat ingenuity could suggest, you have been
renounced guilty, by a Jury of your choice,

the olftmee with which you stand chaigod,
my deep, settled and painful conviction of,
your guilt, and the awful nature of the pen-''
alty you have incurred. to—
To die is the appointed lot of man; but
death, in its mildest and luast hideous form,
is not devoid of terrors, even for such as
are best prepared to die. It is a sad adieu
'twist soul, and body, until the coming of
that day, when, at the sound of the last
trump,. the portals of the &aye shall be I
thrown open, and the - earth be made to yield
up its dead.
And, when it is inflicted as a just and
merited punishment for crime—when a
murderer is called to yield up his life on the-,
altar of retributive justice, however obdurate
he may have become, however seared his
conscience, and whatever outward appear
ance of hardihood and insensibility he may
assume—it is difficult, if not impossible, for
him to contemplate it without horror, and
-an awful and inward dread of entering upon
a different ~-and an -unknown state of exis
tence, in ariother and unknown world, with
the stain of upon his hands, and the
weight of withering and cousuming - guilt
pressing upon his soul.
Murder of any degree, and under any
circumstances, is shocking to huinanify; and
he who is not lost to every proper feeling,.
Must ever turn from, the contemplation of it
with abliorence—buLthai which has been
perpetrated byliiii, bears the stamp of the
higlv:st grade & atracity. •

A v. ile confidently repoiing in the arms
of her_ husband, .and bearing the unborn
pledge of their mutual affection, (and such
learn was the advanced condition of Mrs.

o shelve the settled purpos2, and stay. the
iplitled hand of the.most hardened and prac
ised assatisi4 - . Yet it - did not unsettle your
bloody purpose, nor arrest your murderous
hand. But in the. emphatic language of
the indictment,-''being moved and seduced
by the instigation of the devil," for 110 other
influence could have prompted to snit an
outrage, you broke through all restraint, and
regardless of the laws, both ofG od and man,
and reckless of every consequence, plunged
into a scene of shocking and complicated
crime, to whicli_no parallel is remembered,
and such, as it is believed the pages of judi
cial history furnish no record of. The hus-
and and wire, their two little innocent
children and unborn infant, her father who
'lodged in a room above and a lad an initiate
of-the - house,—were all, all involved in one
common ruin, all inhumanly murdered, and
by you. And after having first plundered
it, with the calculating coolness and delib
eration of a demon, you set fire to the house
in which they had slept,'in imaginary se-
curity, and which but for you might have
continued the abode of innocence and peace;
with a view no doubt, toobliterate all traces
- if violence, by consuming their mangled
and lifeless bodies in the devouring element,
and thereby to destroy all evidence of their
haviag come to their untimely end by means
of any human agency.
But did you also hope to lude your guilt,
from the all seeing and omnipresent God,
to whom all things are known, and from
whom no secrets are hid? Vain and pre
sumptuous hope—the very means resorted
to for safety and concealment, proved the
ready and sure means of your detection.
The flame you lighted to -consume their
bodies, served also to attract and light the
neighbours to the scene of desolation, before
the bodies of Mr. and Mrs. Newey were
entirely consumed,. the mortal wounds still
visible upon which plainly indicated that a
murderer had been there! though, horrible
to relate, the bodies of all the rest were burnt
to ashes.
The finger of suspicion directed by the
unerring- hand of Providence, pointed to you ,
as the fell destroyer of those, for whose
blood you will soon be required to make
atonement with yeur own; and notw ithstand
iug. your supposed well laid scheme of con
cealment and imaginary security, you blind
ly carried about you the damning evidence
of your guilt, unconcions of the dangers that
beset you on all sides, and of the stroke that
was about- to fall upon and crush you. ' So

of - Abe members of the Institution of Frpe
masonry, who kidnapped and murdered their
brother and fellow .citizen, for revealing the
secrets of the mystic order--as soon were
the presses muzzled, and are silent a: the

murderer, are noticed and sounded in the
columns of the public preses—from Maine,

The liberty of Press is our strongest
key, by Which : we Z.an protect the iuncicent
and overtake the guilty—a monitor to thoSe

HON. jUCHARD RUSH.
__F rau th o _il,t to Exaininer.
In your last paper you mentioned your
intention to publish the letter of Richard
Rush, of York county, Pa. to the Antiina.
sonic Coinmittee of that county. I have
since noticed how that letter has affected•
the mitsonS,:ind hive seeu their papers com
mencing, an attack on the writer, avowedly
grounded on the apprehension that the peo
rile-will—erelong-claim-his---Eervices-irr-t he
first station in the. Government, Such am
the fears of the masons, as the direct expres.
ions, in their notices of his letter, show--
and their alarm under the prospect is com
mensurably great. As they have confessed
their apprehensions, and directed their en
ergies accordingly; it may interest many of
voar readers to be furnished with some dates
connected with Mr. Rush's public character.
In January 1811, Mr. Bush was appoint
ed Attorney General* of Pennsylvania, by
Governor Snyder.
On the 22d of November . Isll, he wag
appointed Col - 1101%44u . of the United States'
Treasury; by President Madison.
On the. 10th of Februirry 1816, he Nis
appointed Attorney General'of the United
States, by President Madison.,

appointed Minister to Great Britian, by
President 'Monroe.

pointed Secretary of the Treasury, by Presi
dent Adams.
_
He also acted ns Secretary of State, by ap
pointment from President Madison, during;
the interval between the dismissal of Robert

The assiduity,, fidelity, and ability, and
the devotion to the genuine democratic prin
ciples of the state and general governinents,'
manifested by .Mr..rcush. in those important
public trusts are kndwn to all'who. marked -I
his history and- survOyekl with'attention the,
events of the la 4 twenty years in Pennsyl4:
. I
yania and the United States.
