BC ¥ si ta tr Dt ME ———-———————— = ‘The Case of Professor Webster, &e, Bosron, July 18, 1850. The hearing of the ease of Professor Webster is now proceeding before the Council. The petitions, contain- ing about 1,700 mames, praying for a commutation, were presented—one being from Sacramento, @al., signed by E. Cheever, Attorney General, and thirty- nine others, formerly of New England. Mr. A.cex, of Salem, produced a piece of grape vine, with knots on it, with the view of showing that, in the hands of an incensed man, it might cause death by one blow. It was a formidable looking weapon, Mr. Srran remarked on the influence of capital punishment, in the prevention of crime, and argaed that it had no such influence. While he was thus engaged, he was informed by the Chairman that what he said would be in order before the Legislature, for the abolition of capital punish- ment, but that it was not so in the present instance, for the Council had nothing to do but to carry out the law as it exists. Mr. Srran continued and spoke at some length om the crime of Dr. Webster, and contendedthat although Dr. Webster had confessed the crime for which he was convicted, it did not follow that he committed it; and supported his argument by ® case which occurred ha Vermont, where # man confessed to murder, and yet the man who was supposed to be murdered made his appearance. He also referred to Pearson, who is soom to be exceuted; and concluded by dwelling at some length on the degree of credit to which the confession was entitled, arguing that it entitled the prisoner tom commutation of punishment, Other speakers, among them the Rey, Samuel Brin- dlecourt, eddressed the Coumcil, at some length, im ‘aver of the prisoner, The decivion of the committee has not yet been made public; but it is, without doubt, against acommatation, and the condemned, it is said, has been informed of this fact.
