CHLOROFORM AT AV EXECUTION.-A con? vict who was executed at Utrea, Now York, on Tuesday last for the murder of ii little girl, was helped easily into eternity by the administration of chloroform before tho drop fell. If we understand,this properly, it was permitted by the State authorities that the law should bo mitigated ir- such a degree that tho murderer should bo hurried beforo bis Maker while he was in ii state of insensibility. If ho had shown any morey to the child Whom he murdered, there might bo some excuse for this leniency. The intention in tho carrying out of the law in the execution of a murderer is two? fold. First. The sentence is, that, whatever pain is tho necessary consequence of the exeoution shall be endured by him. Second. The example to others is of the utmost im? portance. Now, what cnn bc tho moral effect of such a perversion of tho law ns this? Suppose that instead of being insen? sible with chloroform at tho timo of the execution the man had been made so by the use of liquor, lt would have been ns justi? fiable to do this as to uso a drug. Such practices deserve the severest reprehension. They can have no other source than sympathy with crime, and they strive to encourage murder rather than to repress it. Tho Philadelphia Enquirer thinks New York is, indeed, rather peculiar in its ideas in relation to the criminal law. The other day a man was acquitted ol murder in New York upon tho ground that, although he was sane the moment beforo the commis? sion of the deed, and the moment after, he was insane at the particular instant when be drew the trigger of tho pistol. Now, in their mercy they stupify u murderer before they hang him. What next? -o THE Frow OP CURRENCY SOUTH.-Tho money article of the New York Herald, of the 8th instant, says: "Forty or fifty mil? lions of dollars have goue South, and have been, or will be, absorbed there. The How of currency in that direction, at the present time, is still going on, but on a diminished scale. More will go in the spring in the shape of Northern capital, which, under the temptations of tho high price of cotton, is seeking investment there. Emigration has set in, aud there will bo a stroug cur? rent in the spring. The revival of cotton culturo is a fever just now with capitalists."
