                       ON THE






PUNISHMENT OF DEATH.


          BY CHARLES SPEAR,
 AUTHOR OP 'TITLES OP JESUS;' 'ESSAYS ON IMPRISONMENT FOR DEBT,' ETC.








 I shall ask for the abolition of the Penalty of Death until I have the infallibility
of human judgment demonstrated to me. The Punishment of Death has always
inspired me with feelings of horror since the execrable use made of it during the
former Revolution.                      LAFAYETTE.
