thought must exist to constitute the crime, im
plies that the? perpetrator -must be a moral
agent a reasonable and accountable being. j
Here probably lie the hopes of the prisoner
and his counsel ; and whether he was or was not
such a moral - agent, and such an accountable
being, at the conception and execution of this
dreadful tragedy, is for you to determine.
It would seem indeed, as if none but a mad
mdn could have perpetrated such a deed as we
have here exhibited in evidence. Who, we
are ready to exclaim, but a maniac, an insane
ana deranged man could haveimbued his hands
in the blood of such a victim; could have
plunged the dagger into the bosom of virtue,
the breast of love itself and let out the life
stfcaths of her -in whose life and happiness his
own was bound up in unconquerable affection?
It is almost incredible. Gentlcmen.it is strong
evidence of insanity. It is entitled to your
considerationlet it. have its weight ; but it is
my duty to add, it is not conclusive evidence
of that sort of insanity which exculpates from
Accountability and guilt. Phrenzy and passion
arerneaily allied to nay, they are partial in
sanity; but it is sometimes such an insanity as
increases rather than diminishes moral turpi- ,

absence. Such, unhappily, is the depravity

and mvsterious comDOsition of our nature; so
j -
closely allied are our virtues and our vices
so easilv docs the former decreuerate into the
latter, or the latter assimilate themselves to,
and assume (he garb of the former, it is of
ten difficult to determine where the one termi
'nnfpa. nr thn. nihp.r commences. Such is the
passion of love ; it ma,' be pure and virtuous,
chaste in its conception, holy in its motives,
honorable and disinterested in its object; it
may seek exclusively and supremely the hap--piaess
of the person on whom it is fixed, re-
fardless, in a measure, of its own welfare, ex
cpt so far as it stands connected with the
welfare of that person ; it is then a noble and
cnnobline passion. Bat it is sometimes a vi
cious love ; it is rather the burning lust of
unhallowed and undisciplined passions, than
the ardent flame of virtuous and sentimental
- a . a .
affection ; and when such is its character, it is
not surprising, if unrequited and ungratified,
it should turn to hatred and seek revenge.
filrt nnt mean to intimate that such was the
tiafnrp and character of the orisoner's attach
menttothe deceased. It may have been as
pure and holy as ever glowed in the bosom of
a mortal being. It may have burnt and blazed
too strong for the physical powers of his mind
to endure; and the lamp of reason itself may
, have gone out, or but glimmered in its socket,
under the infuence of its all-absorbing power ;
and if by such, or any other cause, the priso
ners mind had become unsettled and deranged :
if reasonshad been driven from its throne,
he was a wretched, miserable, crazy man, but
not a guilty one. And here, perhaps, I ought
to be more specific as to what amounts to, or
constitutes such a derangement, as exculpates
from the imputation of guilt, and saves from the
infliction of punishment.
It is a general rule, that all homicides that
is every killing a person, is presumed to be
.malicious, and of course, murder, unless the
. controversy anDears from circumstances of
alleviation, excuse, or justification and that
s it is incumbent on the prisoner, to make out
such cjicumstances, to the satisfaction of the
court and jury, unless they sufficiently appear
from the evidence and case made out on the
part of the prosecution or perhaps at most it
is ngcersaryibr the state to show a homicide
committed by defendant prima facie, clear
of any alleviating, excusing, or justifying
cause.
In the case now before the court, as I have
already remarked, the homicide is- proved,
and if not confessed, is not denied. The pri
soner then is obnoxious to the charge, and
liable to the dreadful consequences of mur
der, unless he can alleviate, excuse, or justify j
nis conauci
It is not necessary for me to enter into a
specification of what constitutes an alleviation,
. excuse or justification. The defendant has
not attempted to alleviate, or to justify but
his defence is bottomed on a fact, which, if
- true, is an excuse. That fact is a state of men
tal alienation ; and if such alienation did exist,
it is an excuse. It does rescue him from the
charge of crime, and shield him against the
punishment due to guilt.
But then it must be satisfactorily shewn to
Ilia inrv. that he was in that unhappy and
iernhlp. mndition : and at this point the
S (s s 7 IS W m m
difficulty meets us and presents two ques
tions.
Tcf What ctntP. or decree of alienation of
nA .nnatitntps an excusing insanity? and
2d.lv. Did such an insanity exist ?
The first it is my duty to ascertain and de-
. clare ;; the second it is your province to ceter
i mice.
- In ascertaining what degree of insanity will
excuse, we may derive some assistance from
the reason of the thing ; from analogy to other
, cases, and from settled rules. Reason and
good sense teaches us at once, that it is not
imperfection or fallacy of the
iiumannund, that puts an end to our free moral
gency and exonorates us from accountabili
ty ; for in.the true philosophy of mind in refer
once to moral acuon, every departure from
- Mtrpth and virtue, u i but an act of insanity ; the
pianifestation of a disordered mind as well as a
T depraved heart.,
' In -the case of children of enderyears;'" of
nine and en years oage, who have been" in
, dieted,? convicted and executed for crime, ih
inquiry has not been, whether by premature
7natnrity or intellect they were capable of un-
:,derstajidiog-and juflgingf orrectiy.of the maral
w, ijx an us
themselves and others, but whether they had
intelligence enough to know right from wrong,
good from evil, or whether they were comjnit
tingS crime for which they deserved, or were
liable to punishment. But without pursuing
these remarks any farther, it is enough for me
to say, that the ablest and most humane judges
that ever adorned the judgment seat, have re
peatedly decided, that is not necessary
to render an act criminal and the perpe
trator punishable, that every spark of reason
should be extinct ; that though it may glimmer
in its socket, and give but. an unsteady and
doubtful light ; yet if enough remains to shew
it was susceptible of feeling its legal and moral
obligation, though not sufficiently strong and
steady to discover them in all the bearings and
obligations, yet he is responsible and punisha
ble. But, if there is an absence and destruc
tion of the reasoning powers, adark chaos of the.
mind, incapable of feeling the restraints of law,
or of discriminating between right and wrong,
or fitful and illusory phantoms of the brain,
that present things in a false light, or impose
upon the disordered intellect as realities, what
has no existence in nature; such a mind, thus
1 . m mm
in ruins, nas ceasea to ue accountable tor
its acts.
I do not mean to say that there must be a
total and absolute extinction of the reason.
If the prevailing character of the mind is in
sane; if only now and then it is pierced by a
lucid ray ; but its general character is disor
dered and chaotic, it would be dangerous,
if not cruel, to convict and punish for a
crime an individual thua already miserable and
pitiable.
With these remarks, on the extent and de
gree of derangement necessary to exculpate a
defendant, ana referring vou to the cases that
have been read and commented on by coun
sel, I dismiss this branch of the subject.
,
With this explanation, your next inquiry
will be did such a state' of mind exist.
In these investigations we can derive, after
an, but little practicarbenefit from the learned
and scientific woiks on medical jurisprudence.
We know, forinstance, that intemperance some
times produces insanity, and insanity some
times shews itself by intemperance. But the
difficulty is to tell, which is the cause, and which
is the effect: so in this case whether a disor-
dered intellect led him into the excesses he
committed on board of a steam boat and in the
city of New York, or whether those excessses
were characterestic of the real moral feelings
to the commission of this

but little help in sol
After all, in their own language, it must, de
pend upon the circumstances of the case.
It may be, gentlemen, you will find evi
dence enough of such an alienation of mind
as I have decribed, and God grant that you
may; for we would rather, infinitely rather,
find him a maniac than a murderer.
And here you will refer yourselves to tho
evidence. You will remember, and try to ac
count for his altered looks, and the absence of
his wonted cheerfulness, after his return from
New York. He had left, it was thought, perhaps
hoped, at least by the mother, never to return.
But he came back. He came back pale and
dull. Was it the paleness and dulness of a
diseased body; a distracted and deranged
mind ? Was it the sad effects of his recent de
bauch and dissipation in the city of New York?
If the latter, was that debauch, that disgusting
conduct related by his friend Wallace, the
actings out of an insane mind ; or a depra
ved heart. Was it the paleness of passion,
the dull, gloomy and unsocial feelings of
a heart bent on mischief? Had a fixed and
settled purpose been formed in his bosom, to
destroy the gem he could not make his own,
or was he the unhappy victim of his ardent, but
misplaced affection?
These, gentlemen, are questions, to which
you must respond; and if any thing in- the ab
sence of full and satisfactory evidence of insan
ity, can save the prisoner, it may be found in
the burning eloquence, and untiring efforts,
the soul stiring appeals of his able and distin
guished counsel ; they have done their duty ;
and if the unhappy prisoner must pay, to inju
red justice, the forfeit of his life, his blood will
not be found on any part of their professional
garments.
And now let me beseech you, gentlemen,
that nothing I have said, be understood by
as intimating an opinion unfavorable to
the urisoner. I have not intended, in refer
ence to the great and material facts in the cause,
to express any opinion either for or against
him. My object has been, however unsuccess
ful the effort, so o conduct this trial, that if
the prisoner is acquitted, public justice shall
be satisfied it condemned, he may die in
peace with me, and have no occasion to occupy
his lastligering reflections, with the thought
that the court has done him lniustice. 1 hat
such has been my object, I think I can confident
ly, but reverently appeal to the Searcher of
hearts.
To His guidance and direction, gentlemen, I
lerventiy commend you. Go to your chain
ucr, dna mere in the tear ot liou, and as you
expect to answer for the transaction of this
day, at His bar, discharge your duty to the
country, and to the prisoner; and may the

conduct you to such results, that neither Justice
nor Mercy shall have occasion to mourn or be
offended.

which they are distinguished, and that firm

they dare not relax. Your triers, the jurors,
have in the most patient and enduring manner
submitted to almost unexampled privations and
confinement for the period of nearly eirht

sunk under the pressure of his confinement
and his feelings, and by their fixed, solemn

that they desired not your blood, but most ar

me to speak but I think in view of that bar,
before which we shall shortly appear, I can
say for my brethren and myself, that we endea

He remained at the hall till nearly sunset,
receiving visiters, when he was escorted to his
quarters at the American Hotel, which had
been splendidly fitted up for his reception. In
the evening, the theatres and other places of
public amusement were brilliantly illuminated,
and adorned with appropriate transparencies.
The weather was uncommonly fine, and it is
variously computed that from one hundred thou

participated in the ceremonies of the day.
So far all is jubilee and rejoicing; but we are
much pained to state that several accidents oc

of serious consequences. The President had

ARRIVAL OF THE PRESIDENT.
Agreeably to the information received from
the Committee of Councils, which had proceed
ed to Philadelphia to announce the intended
movements of the President, as published in
our paper of yesterday, the Chief Magistrate of
the United States, with his suite, (consisting of
the Hon. Louis M'Lane, Secretary of State, the
Hon. Lewis Cass, Secretary of Var, and Ma
jor Donelson, his private Secretary) reached
here yesterday afternoon.
At an early hour, every motion throughout
the city gave token of an approaching gala
detached companies of the military were form
ing at the respective peats flags were floating
in gay and streaming; splendor from the mast
heads -of the shipping;, from the windows, and
from the roofs of all the hotels and public es
tablishments the Sunday clad artizan and sleek
urchin, with their holiday faces of smiles, were
thronging the streets, and wending their way,
from every direction,' to the Battery and Castle
Garden.
By twelve o'clock,; the military had assem
bled on the Battery, hich, until four, contin
ued toreceive the streams that poured in, con
sisting of all denominations of our citizens
the young and the old the father and the son
the matronly lady and the bonnie lassie, un
til the entire area was literally stowed with the
multitude ; while Castle Garden displayed its
turrets, crowned with no less dense assemblage.
The waters of the bay and harbor, upon all
sides, were covered with various descriptions
of vessels, from the small and fragile shallop
to the tall and stately! ship, which, besides the
various pendants and ensignia of their own
country, were, in many instances, dressed out
with the flags of all nations, and with their pri
vate signals, until the very air was robed in
colors of the most brilliant and variegated hues.
As the hour approached for the arrival of the
President, the boats j were plying in every di
rection throughout pur capacious bay, and
when, at length, the elegant steamboat, the
North America, appeared, the most deafening
shouts from the assembled multitudes, made!
the very welkin rins salutes were fired, and
bands of music, with appropriate airs, welcomed
the approach of the President to the great Com
mercial Emporium ; on reaching which, he lan
ded at Castle Garden, at four o'clock, and in
auspn
of England and France, and to take possession
of Palestine to negotiate with Egypt, or fight
with that power, at all events, to lay the foun
dation of a new empire in the East, in which
the Jews of Europe would occupy the first
rank, on condition of their emigrating to that
country, and furnishing a part of the funds ne
cessary to defray the expense. Of course, the
utmost liberty of opinion in religion would be
extended to all classes of the new Judea ; for it
is a singular fact, that the Jews, in the pre;
ent age, are the most liberal thinkers in all
matters of political and relgious belief.
Ihe exclusiveness which prevailed in the
'high and palmy state' of Jerusalem, is
completely changed in this age of the world.
What a singular spectacle it would be, to see
that curious, original and ancient people again
restored to their country, by the Christian
cabinets of Europe! to see the banks of the
brook ofKedron, the vale of Jehoshaphat. the
river Jordan, the mounts of Carmel and of Le
banon again peopled with the descendants of
theis ancient possessors !
