snoot with force enough to let its Influence be felt much further north than the

writer of thie le led to offer your peper

a short dlscueeion on the extension ofj

'The commonly received doctrine la

that an assault, or an assault and batterv.

are the only legal provocations, bat the current history of crime ia this country is that, wllh rare exceptions, juries will net convict a man of murder for kiiliaer

another man who has in any of the

forms of licentiousness violated the vlr-

tue and chastity of a female who standi

n tne near relation of wife, daughter aw

sister to the slayer. This reeqlta from a

higher degree of civilisation and a mora

elevated plane of common seae that reeogttiaes the truth that nothing so

uctly exasperates end more heats the

blood than such an offense against a

hear female relative, and that, therefore.

if hot blood should in any ease extenuate

BomMioe, much more should it in saefa

CuWMWe

This instruction, while it is a new da.

parture, ie undoubtedly right. It is both, good law and good common tease. In such eases, ordinarily, the defendant puts in a plea of emotional insanity, which is but sham and a pretext, and the

jurors are compelled to stultify them

seivee by acquitting on the ground of insanity, when they know that no in

sanity existed. The instruction in quae

tion relieves the jury of this smbarraee. ment and allows them to find tbe denua.

dant not guilty because be was justified

in me eyes 01 humanity and civilised society. Such deeds ere the acts of noble

and manly natures, and the unwritten

aw on tbe subject might ae well, as it

oeen in thie case, be given bv the

court to tbe jury. It is a etep toward getting rid of technicalities aad sham

pleas, and marks the great advancement which is now being made ia the admia-

istratioa of the criminal law ia thie country. Indianapolis Sentinel.
