designated by the Governor of the Coin'

WAS TITUS CRAZY?
It is the belief of many, that no sane
person can commit suicide, or Murder.
HoW, they ask, can . ono in sound mind
be the cause of usburing one's self into
the presence of the Creator, unprepared,
or unrepentant? Or, is it posSible 'for 'a
sane persen, possessing the feelings Com
mon to -humanity, deliberately and. pre
meditatedly, to slay :Mother coldbloo&
These questions can be ^ ankwered by
placing in .view the inexplicable acts of
every day life. When we inquire into
the motives which govern men , and wo
men, we find them so varied, so .numer=
ous, ands° inconsistent, that anopinion is
forced from us that Men always act with
that passion that is uppermost. An unbal-,
nnced mind, therefore,. will act oftenest
in accordance with its strongest tenden
.dies. Is a Peabody insane because. he
:follows-the-dictatcs:of—benevolencerend
benefits mankind with the millions_ for
which he has struggled?-- Or is an aya.
ricious - Rothschild crazily- heaping -up
earthly treasures he soon will have to re
linquish 2 The quarrelsome boy is not
in his , right mind_ when he threntenS
unheard of horrors to all who incur his
wrath. !
In like quanner, was Titus crazy.
"Pure devilishness," as one of the prison
keepers expressed it, affected him fre
quently. At one time bursting into fits
nf'ungovernable rage ; at another work,
dug, spitefully, to annoy the inmates of
the prison. Whether engaged hi break
ing furniture in his cell, or killingßenry
Stamm, he-.was acting outitip,•natural
disposition—vicious, and destructive.
Occasionally realizing his••situation,- he
would 'repent, and - amend, but to 'again'
break forth into renewed paroxysms of
rage.- Pis fits-`of anger continued to
withinn week of his exceution;whon-the
awful truth • was forced on his mind that
he would soon meet his God. Then all
his religiou's aspirations, and the fear bf
death arose: - During the laSt, week he
was subdued and repentent.
• It has been deemed just by the good
men of the earth, at all periods • of the
world's hittory, that the murderer should
ifot live—that-t-the.--peace,cf society de
-ITO:lids removal—fr—oin—rfrfaiilm—Eg
pecially in this advanced' stage-of civi
lization it is the staTct duty,. even of the
humanitarian, to seWtbat the_ lifirs,
framed for the good of: all- men, sheuld
be upheld.. It is because the law is re
cognized that Titus was hanged.

OUR CITIZENS AND DR. SCHCEPPE,
The Philo&lphiailfccitidg Bulletio,_ono
of the most readable and fairly conducted
journals of that city, doubtless Misled by
the statements of over zedidtis - partizans
of , pr.tieliceppe, - indulges ju Lira le
against our citizens, which is as nonsen
sical, as it is maliciously false. The In
quirer relieves itself in the sameway, but
its abiurditin 'are not so dbundant. In
order that our petiplo may knoW exactly
how they have been vilified, ire copy the
Butfelfiek article in full. •
''The witlidriti,t7til ortlicdeath Wal rant
of Dr. Selueppe, as we have good rim AM
to know, is a groat relief to the (lover- .
nor and his Attorney General, both of
whom aro gentlemen who can have not,
any possible desire to be connected with_
the of:coition of any human being, so
lOng - as thero is a grave doubt of his guilt,
or any possible means to secure to himthe
very fullestbenefits‘of the la w left untried.
Therciis but one class of the community 10
whom the' withd awal of this death war
rant is distasteful, and that is tile class
composed of tbn..ortodind prosecutors- of
Dr. Schwppo, wlioselitterest ill his d_
is ineasurettby their eagerneo to Miss
Steinneche's money, and of a portion of
the people or Carlisle, who have ex
pressed an almost savage desire to soil
tbis young man hang - ed. This class is
naturally roused- to new oxcilement at
the prospect- of a new, trial fur Dr.
§cliWppe. The trial, if allowed by the
Supremo Court, as it scans ahnost
tahr thatit bei - will; - of' - course,' be
held elsewhere than in Cumberlaml couu
ty,
and it will bring ;before tIM jury the
mass of scientific evidence which clearly
disprdvcs the poisoning theory. The
people who are so bent upon bringing
Dr: Selnuppe to the'seafrohl are fearful
that hotnalqp through, their fingers,
and his innocence be declared 'before the
world, and tlicrliave eeniceeted a mu,t .

Carlisle, on the twenty-second instant,
for the confessed murder of 'Henry Stamm.
His case is a peculiar one, he having
been sentenced to death op his own plea
of " guilty," without having gone
thrduglt the form of a trial. Now, up
on this ground, there might be some good
reason to ask a reprieve fur this man, and
a petition is being circulated and signed
in Carlisle, aslang; the Governor to re
prieve Titus. But upon what ground ';
,Not because .of the informality of his
sentence, but because theyeople of Car
lisle 'would prefer to hare two mot hung
at-once ! They desire the Governor to
,keep Titus for them vntil he oda, hang
Dr.'Sehoeppa with him ! They hope that
by using Titus for a bait they can -troll
