C, JUNE 6, 1882. r.-.'.td m. .v.: - ; Entered at the Post office at New Berne, N. C. '-" as second-class matter. ' - Insanity Murder. The finding of the Jury in the case "of Henry Bryan, tried last week inibjs county for killing Mr. J. M. AgoBtine, raises much dis cussion as (a ttie boundaiy between sanity arid insanity in guaging hu man, responsibility. , The verdict of thtvjry- rwild not perhaps" have beebtherwise upon the testimony of a majority :0f the. experts; and this'tPstimbnjf of the physicians we Hup'poae, was based on . the latest modern '" 'principles of : medical aoie.iurand yet a consideration of the : whole vease suggests doubts whether in; not any man is not sim ilarly'inRane when lie, . in a niom ent"'S(; frenzy, ' slays a fellow ci-ea-Uir. - '.. ' In Bryan's case t he test imony nhowed that he had suffered, all his lifewith epileptic fits,- and was a half imbecile,, but iu his ordinary conditiony was conscious of his civ-; il relations ,hnd of light and wrong; was a good FOrker, attended to his own business 1 and 1 had ordinary Reriseslh his' "daily avocations. It appears that he had i a lit on the night before the homicide; that at norn-LM-'ithe; . next day - he: goes to station! .'agent,' Mrf Morris, antVengages in a controversy about a 'mopth" ' quarter which he al leged rhadJbeen paid him by that gene!ifiaifl;and wanted to . ex change;, that on. being refused he weritaway there being nothing noticeable or peculiar in his manner ! or appfaranee at that time. Again at flight lie .returns to Mr. Morris with a-renewed request toexchauge the) money,"' argues about it, and on being again .refused, threatened to go to law. While the altercation is fitilli going on the ' watchman, Mr. Agos'tine, goes up to him and takes him by the coat to lead him out of the office and he immediately stabs him tilth a knife which he had open; anV,'coneealed under ; his apron. He immediately flees, and on being taken resists arrest. ' ; Upon those facts a majority of the, physicians gave the following opinions which saved the prisoner's Li From the evidence given the prisoner was sane up to the moment of Milking the blow. 2. tTlie' fact of his endeavoring to escape and resisting arrest iudicate that Ji$ may have been sane at that time,' but the probabilities were against that opinion . , ; . :. V 3. That he was insane in striking theblow;One of the physicians says that if he struck the blow from brooding over his supposed wrongs It was'clearly insanity. ' n 'A jTo 'the average reader it may lie difficult to show how one may be sanft np to the moment of striking a mortal blow, and sane a few minutes , after, and yet insane in committing the homicide. It raises the suggestion that any man is in sane to , some extent who commits murder. If brooding over wrongs or supposed wrongs by a weak minded man works him up to the pitch of committing homicide, and it is, in his, case,, insanity, why should it not be insanltyan any onejwho, thus . acts, in all. cases of homicide from passion f Is there not a growing sentiment in 'the "civilized world that the old doctrine of ' We for life" isVrong ; Br .! thefefore medical science is tvn coMciously widening and enlarging its r'sbf insanity so as to soften t!. vtiity of the law? If ouecom- mits what i termed it brutal, cold i blooded lmirttw no one doubts tlie justness of the ""Mosaic law;' but is it ntt n fact that one who slays his fellow "man iu , a passion either sndden or from brooding over wrongs is partially excused by his fellows, on the ground of the frail ty of human nature which frailty or weakness the medical experts modernize by calling it insanity ! Is not the teaching of modern writ ers like Mandsley making it pos sible to prove all men insane who proceed to extremities under the impulse of hot passion! "We would be ploased to have this subject discussed in the Journ al by some of the physicians in New Berne. " The public is interested iu knowing exactly how far the doc trine of iifsauity goes, and how it is to be applied. ' (From onr regular Corresjionclent. WASHINGTON LETTER. Washington, June 3, 1882. The turbulent scenes of last week in Congress have been continued through the present week, and the end is not yet, nor will be until a Republican is placed in every con tested seat. The rules of the ilouse have been amended so as to prevent fillibustering ..:to a certain extent, but, even with the amended rides, it will be necessary lor the Repub licans to keep a quorum constantly on hand in order to dispose of con tested cases, and of all quest ions of a political Character. It is the in tention of the Democrats to use every possible means to retain Wheeler and Shelly the two re maining members whose places are contested. If, during t he progress of the debate, the Democrats at any time find the Republicans without a quorum, they can, in spite of the new rule, resume dilatory tactics. The trial of the Star Route cases began in the Criminal Court to-day, and it is watched with great in terest by the bar, as well as by the many friends of the defendants. All the counsel and a large crowd of spectators were in attendance. Col. Bob Ingersoll opened with a motion to c,uasli the indictment, as far as ex-Benator Horsey- and his brother; were' concerned,' because, as he argued,, the grand jury, had not been drawn iu accordance Avitli the provisions of law. Judge Wylie overruled (lie mot ion of Mr. Inger soll'.'1 YT eminent counsel, includ ing McSweeny and Shellabarger of Ohio, Chandler of St. Louis, Wilson of Iowa, and others, have . been re tained by the defendants, and it is thought the trial of the case will continue tar into at least a' month. Lieutenant Pancnhower arrived at his home in-Washington vester- day, and was received at the railroad station by his brothers. sisters, relatives, friends, and about three thousand citizens with great demonstration s ol love and es teem. He was escorted from the depot to ' Willard's hotel, when about five hundred of his friends had assembled to give him a cordial welcome home. Mr. John T. Given, chairman of the reception commit tee, introduced Lieut. Danenhower to commissioner Dent, who wel comed him in a brief address, and presented him with a floral model of the last exploring steamer as a token ot regard and esteem. Lieut. Danenhower, in response, thanked commissioner Dent and his friends lor the cordial welcome given him, and said that he had been so over whelmed by the stream of congrat ulation and friendly affection which met him at New York, that he found himselt utterly unable to express his grateful appreciation; at the conclusion of the speeches, commis sioner jJent presented to Lieut. DanenhoAver separately, all those present whom he did not personally know, ami lie was again over whelmed with congratulation and expressions of friendly regard and good .will. After the welcome he was escorted by the committee to his home in West Washington. ' Secretary Polger has issued an order, to take effect from the 1st instant, prohibiting smoking in the Treasury building during oflice hours. It is understood that a number of. ladies, employed in the department, called upon the Secre tary and requested to be trans: ferred to other rooms, as their male associates were almost continually smoKing, -tuns rendering it - very disagreeable to them. About three- fourths of the ni ale employees of the, various departments can , be seen at anytime during office hours with either a cigar or a pipe in their mouths, . notwithstanding the 1 act- that part of their room is occupied by ladies. The good , example thus set by Secretary Folgcc should be followed .throughout the several de partments.
