M.â€" ‘immw fihua BY THE “NORWEGJAN” ATTD « SCO'I‘IA.‘.’ THE LATE HURRICANE. London, Oct. 25th, 1862. Sunday night last Was fearfully tem- - pcstuous, not only in London bttt all over England; and the destructive gales that then began are scarcely at rest yet.â€" -Early in the afternoon the wind set in strongly from the south-west, and by 8 o’clock a furious storm was raging, accom- panied all the time by a perfect deluge of rain. The churches and clrapples of the Metropolis were deserted to a greater exâ€" tent, at the evening service, than has hap pened probably during the present gene ration. Most of those who did venture out had ample reason to regret llreir bold- ness, for not a. tenth part of them could have reached home with dry skins. Urn brellas were useless, for they were no sooner opened than smashed, unless in- stantly closed again; and in marry in- stances ihat I have heard of, strong men as well as women were thrown in the streets by the force of the wind, and even cabs were overturned. In the suburbs of London, and in the Parks, great trees were rent up by their roots, or snapped in twain, and a vast amount of damage was done to gardens and orchards. 1n seVeral cases heads and arms were broken by the falling of chimney pots and portions of buildings. '1. his description of disaster, however, was mare prevalent in some of the provincial towns, and Even those along way off the coast, where several large newly-built houses were dashed to pieces, and others were made to rock as if by the shock of an earthquake. With such'a condition of things in the heart of the country, it could not fail to be that the coast would be strewed with Wrecks.â€" The storm was more severe upon the south and western coasts, and to the fact toflthe wind blowing from that quarter is “attributed the circumstance that the loss “of property and life were not marry-told greater, harbours of refuge being far more “numerous and safe from Yarmouzli to Liverpool by way of the Downs, than -.along the Yorkshire and Northiimberland “coast. So far asI can glean from lite various reports published in the London papers, there would appear to have been at least forty total wrecks, several of the Vessels foundering with all hands on board, but in most of the cases the crews were saved by means of life boats, and other established means of rcscuo, and by during -exploits of hero c men, who perilled their «own lives to prevent the deaths of others. And at'least a hundred and fifty other ships-were more or less damaged. Spe- cial attention has been directed to the foundcring of the ‘i Lotus,” from Deme rara to London, off the Isle of Wight, ten out of twelve of the crew, including thc'captain and male, being drowned.â€" Ships outward bound were generally kept from destruction by their owners kneeling the storm signals sent to all lire” ports by Captain Fitzroy. A fleet of colliers sent out from Sunderland on the Saturday, in defiance of the warning, have not yet been heard of. Some Londoners expected to hear on Monday that both the Crystal Palace and International Exhibition had been either blo N0 down or greatly darn- aged. ' But in this they were most happily disappointed. A :gOOd deal of glass, of both buildings, was broken, and some little damage was done by the entrance of the .rain, but the injury was only trifling and was soon repairedâ€"Globe’s Correspon- dance. THE GREEK INSURRECTION. 7 The following is the intelligence re- ceived from Greece, previous to the an- nouncement telegraphed to Queenstown before the “Scotia” sailed, that Kinu 0tho had abdicated :_â€"c ° ATHENS, Oct. l4~.â€"â€"A conflict has taken place at Nauplia between the mili- tary and the citizens.

KILFEDER’S SENTE .__..._ ..__._‘ NCE. hr the question were asked, Whether the security oflife or of property, is of the greater importance, there could scarcely be a difference of opinion in reference to the answer. “ All that a man hath will he give for his life,” says the sacred writer, and the first and strongest prompt ings of our nature, verify the truth oflhe prevcrb. ‘Bul in the ad minis {ration of the law, in the case of the recent unfortunate homicide, in the township of Vaughan, this principle seems to have been completely reâ€" versed, in the mind oftlrc presiding Judge, before whom the case was tried. It may be true, that equity lawyers, from the peculiar turn of mind produced by constantly giv-._ ing their, attention to the rights of property, are disposed to regard these rights paramont l0 allollrers ; and it may be correCl, that the lawyer,however high his pr'ofessronâ€" al standing, whose practice has been confined to the Court of Chain. cery, is not the best adapted to ad. judlcate in Criminal cases. We leave this question however for legal causisls to determine. But one thing is quite certain; we some- times find anomalies in the de- cisions of the criminal tribunals, which, to plain people, appear to be at variance Willi justice and common sense. Here is the case of a young man, Killcder, who picks a quarrel with another, named llurrl, in reference to a matterof trifling irrrportance; the latter, be it rc'meirrbered, bears the characrer,-â€"~according to the evidenceâ€"of being remarkably quiet and inoffensive. While H urd isin the act of dcvesting lrlmselfof his coat, that he may the. better de- fend himself, his antagonist rushes upon him, and deals the fatal blow, Not satisfied, however, with taking this cowardly advantage, he brut- ally kicks his fallen victim, as if re- solved to make sure work of him. It is quite true, that Kilfcder after- wards expressed regret for what he had done ; and it is quite probable be may have been sincere. But his contrition simply amounts to this : he had committed a heinous crime and feared the consequences of his act. The most hardened olfehders will experience sorrow, when they find lhev‘cannot essape the penalty at- tached to their crimes. We do not affirm that the fear of punishment was the only cause of the apparent penitence in the present instance; but when we read the evidence given by John Verry, it is hard to believe itwas sincere... W'hen told bytbis witness, that he had killed them-an, he replied “ l dorr’t‘c-are a God dâ€"â€"n.” This is certainly not the language of repentance, but on the contrary such as might be ex- pected from the most. obdurate A human being is hurried warning, not by mere accident, not ‘ He reports that there were over 200 even in fair and Open combat, but by a treacherous blow, unexpectedâ€" ly given by his assailant.

Kilfeder is detected in the act, brought to justice, and the crime clearly proven against him. In all be a term of years in the Peniten- tiary. But instead of maining a horse, he- takes the life of a human being aad "he is punished- by one year’s imprisonment l I In perusing the list of sentences paSSed upon the prisoners conVicted at. the recent sitting Of the AssiZe (John, the most superficial reader consistency. We find that the crime of Robberyis punished, in one instance with seven, and in another with six years’ imprison- three years in the'sume institution isinflicted, where no robbery had been committed, but merely for “ Assault with intent to rob." Now it does appear most extraordinary, that. “manslaughter,” clearly pro- ven and attended, as 'in this case, with circumstances of a sufliciently aggravating character, should in the scale of enormity, be placed be- low robbery. Shall a man’s chat- teis be considered legally of more value than that which he prizes above chl'ylhing else? Shall pro- perty be surrounded with all the safeguards that legislators can sug- gest, while human life is made a more plaything, of less value in the eye of the law than your watch or your purse .7 The man who breaks your money is punished with the greatest severity ; but he who takes away your life may, judging from the case before us, expect to be treated with much greater clem- ency. Amun’s properly is made secure while that, without which, property is useless is treated as though of little consequence. We‘arenot disposed to moralizo unnecessarily on the “besetting sins of the age." We leave these subjects to those to whom they more especially belong But every peace- ably disposed citizen must corr- detnn the barbarous practice of fighting. Pugilislic encounters, we are aware, are not uncommon in some places; but none but the low- ,est grades of society take part in them. we understand that Mr. Eccles, in his ar‘guirient for the (le- fence, cited the ease of professional boxers, who sometimes fight for hours without. doing one another serious mischief. But ll“. might as well have stated, that because pet‘- s‘ons are frequently stabbed or shot through, without being killed. the taking of life by these means was to a certain extent justifiable.â€"~ Duellers may shoot. at one another as long as they please. provided nobody be hurt, but if.0rie succeed in killing his manflbe is looked upon as a murderer. It would be deemed no palliation that hundreds of- duels had been fought. Without the infliction of-a single death- wound. iWe thinly-it scarcely pos- sible that either the eloquence or the sophistry‘ of aclover advocate could have influentcd the decision of the Court, in pronouncing sun- tence; nor do we think that the Hon. Judge Morrison could be in- if he corrimilted an error it was one of the head, and not of the heart.â€" He has doubtless had reasons for his decisionsquile sutisfactmy to himsr-lf. But we will venture the. remark that his debut on ‘ the bench has been unfortunate in the parti- cular case to which we have re- ferred. We are no'advocate of Capital Punislrrrient, but no sane man will pretend to say, that the practice of placing ‘manslaughler ’ on a par with ‘petty larceny’ is calculated to serve the ends of jus- tice, or diminish the number of homicides throughout the country. _..<.._-m>6< Auction Sales.
