THE CRIMINAL LAW.
Reasons for Opposing the Amendments
Recently Adopted by the Logisla
ture.
Columbia Register.
Mr. Henry A. Gaillard arose and
said before casting his vote on the
bill he desired to explain why he
should be compelled to vote in the
negative. He gave the following
reasons :
1. Because pnishment should be
proportioned to the offense, and the
death penalty, the highest and final
expression of the power of law,
should be reserved for the gravest
crimes known to society.
2. The two frequent resort to the
punishment of death, assuming
that it will be enforced by the
courts, instead of increasing actually
diminishes consideration for human
life by familiarizing the public with
the contemplation of public execa
tions.
3. The history of severe penal
codes has shown that such codes
defeat their aim. Sympathy and
pity are excited for accused persons
which affect juries, judges gov.
ornors and communities, and
result in frequent escapes from
proper and legitimato punishment.
4. The enactment of the death
penalty in these cases must result
in more frequent murders, for per
sons committing theso offences, to
escape the consequences of their
crime, will be more swift to take
life.
5. The punishment at present for
two of these offences is imprison
ment for life, and the third, im-.
prisounent for thirty years, at the
discretion of the Judge, which it is
believed in the universal experience
of the'States of this Union and the
nations of Europe are sufficiently
severe.
6. The efficacy of punishment con
sists far more in the certainty of its
infliction than in its severity, and as
before stated severe laws are more
apt to be evaded than milder on
actments.
7. The greater prevalence of crime
in the community, if such is a fact,
can be explained by the excited and
abnormal condition of public affairs,
and it is reasonable to believe it will
steadily diminish under the influence
of an equal, firm and just adminis
tration of the public affairs.
8. Public political policy demands
under our present citcumstances an
exhaustion of milder methods before
resorting to systems of punishment
unknown, so far as I am informed,
to the penal codes of any civilized
State.
It is now an acknowledged fact that
CONSUMPTION CAN BE CURED. It has
been cured in a very great number
of cases (some of them apparently
desperate ones) by Schenck's Pul
monic Syrup alone, and in others
by the same medicine in connection
with Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic and
Mandrake Pills, one or both accord
ing to the requirements of the case.
The old supposition that "Cons
sumption is incurable," for many
years deterred Physicians from at
tempting to find a remedy for that
disease, and patients afflicted with
it reconciled themselves to death
without an effort being made to save
them from a doom which was con
sidered inevitable.
Dr. Schenck himself was supposed
at one time to be at the very gate of
death, his physicians having pro
nounced his case hopeless and
abandoned him to his fate : he was
CURED by the aforesaid medicines
and afterward enjoyed unin terrupt
ed good health for more than forty
years. Thousands of people have used
Dr. Schek's preparations with the
same remarkable success.
Schenek's Almanac, containing a
horough treatise en Consumption,
Liver Complaint, Dyspepsia, &c., can
be had gratis of any druggist, or of
y. H. Schenck & Son, Philadelphia.
Full directions for the use of
Schenek's medicines accompany each
package.
Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup, Sea
Weed Tonic, and Mandrake Pills
are for sale by all druggists.

SIXTY TIEOUSAND A DAY.
What is Shown by a Count of Cuato
mers at R. H. Macy & Co's. Doors.
Impelled by a wish accurately to
answer a question frequently asked,
and always asked at random, R. H.
Macy & Co. have placed men at the
doors of their immense store at
Fourteenth and Sixth avenue, to
count the pedlle who come in the
course of the day. Before the
store was open in the evenings the
number was reported at 30,000 daily,
but since then it has reached nearly
double that number, or 60,000 peo
ple-the entire population of a large
city. Of course a systerp exact and
perfect in detail is needed to sp
ply a throng so great. The pack
ing and shipping, which are done in
the basement, are so thoroughly
systematized that last year the
firm lost two only out of hundreds
of thousands of packages, and this
year it has lost not one. At present
at least 4,000 packages a day are
distributed within the city. Three
deliveries are made daily, by from
twenty-five to thirty-five wagons,
some of them the largest of Dodd's
express wagons, which have been
chartered for a short season. By
various express lines to places out
of the city, the firm ships from five
hundred to one thousand packages a
day, 0. 0. D., for they have no
book accounts with any one. In
this shipping department are now
employed about fifty extra hands,
making nearly one hundred in all.
In the salesrooms the saleswomen
stand shoulder to shoulder behind
the counters, and the customers
stand in the same way in front of
them and in rows three deep.
There are nearly seven hundred
clerks here, of whom about one
hundrel are men.
On the third floor are the dressing
and lunch rooms, where hot tea and
coffee are given the girls to eat with
their lunch, and the place is a per
fet Babel of girlish chatter during
the three hours which it takes the
force to eat in relays.-etew York
Paper.
PARLIAMENTARY RULES.
The New York 2ribune's Wash
ington correspondent gives a column
and a half of reasons why the pro
cesses of legislation should be sin.
plified. The rulei are oftQn the
result of an expedient to meet an
emergency. Speakers give rulings
to help their party friends, and these
rules are made to conform to the
precedents established by Speakers.
That is, the Speakers having de
clared that the hdrse was sixteen
feet high, the House, to relieve the
Spe(tker of his embarrassment,
adopts a rule to that effedt. The
"previous question" is one of the
mysterious processes which have
been warped out of their original pur
pose. It was originally an excep
tional expedient to arrest debato
that otherwise might be painfully
protracted, but by usage it has
become a regular and ordinary
method in passi'g a measure. The
effect of this motion is to compel the
House to accept or reject a ~bill in
the precise shape in which it is of
fered. The member introducing
the bill has, under the previous
question, an hour which he can use
himself or divlde with others, or he
can yield this privilege, and force an
immediate debate. The effect on
the proceedings of the House is to
throw all practical consideration of
a bill into committees. There it is
considered, discussed, amended and
prescribed to the House In the
shape the committee chooses to give
it. All propositions are referred to
a committee, and the. House only
acts upon the~ir report. The pro
ceedings of' the~ committees are
secret. No member is allowed to
give information of anything that
takes place in.the committee rooms.
The 7Wbriune correspondent thus
describes the composition . and
machinery of the committees:
As a rule, every committee is
governed absolutely by its majority;
the majority by the chairiman alone,
or at best by a clique ; the clique at
lastby one man, usually the chair
ma,bt sometimes net. The i,!.
