We had imbibed the notion, that "bravery and chivalry" were gene rous principles, prompt to rebuke insolence or punish cruelty. We had supposed, that if any where within the limits of our proudly heroic country, an ardent, unbending sense it justice was to be found, it was in this same State But if the "chivtrly, sad bravery, and beauty" of Ken tucky are flocking to the trial of a brutal mur derer, for the unholy purpose of imaging, if pas: Bible, the adminiktration of justice, to wilt a mis guided passion ate barbarous delusion. we would like to kairy twist really is the true standard of honor and heroism? We hare yet to learn that "bravery and chivalry" are synonymes with crime and ferocity In a community truly brave and chivalrous, according to our notions of their nutirre, the first announcement of a crime like the present, would have raised an universal cry of horror, and begotten a settled purpose that the guilty should not go unpunished. -Beauty" would have flown terrified from the spot, instead of crowding the unmistakable evidences of res pect and support upon the bloody offender If the histories of the affair which we have seea,are within a gun-shot of the truth, the halter is gnar ling fur its lawful work Heretofore, if we are not mistaken, amiability and worth have been the safeguards of rifle and reputation; but if this tragedy is to be conducted tea characteristic end, we shall advise all of our friends wh o ma y wan der into that vicinity, to eamme the air of butch ers as a passport to safety and "society." We are unwilling to believe that "this trial will coon stitnte an era in - the'jligsphadimee of the State " It has not yet been generally learned that Ken tucky is minns a criminal eode, ur if she has one it has invariably been's dead letter. If ever a crime was punished in the State, this will be no thing more or lees than a Second instance.
