Opinions vary a to the expediency of this form of reprisal on the part of either husband or wife. It is held by many that the infliction of the death penalty is unnatural, with, or without, the sanction of the law; others hold that the law can justify the penalty, and does so wher.ever it employs the ex tremity; many are disposed to grant the offended wife or hu-band the prero gative of using the last resort; while still others claim that no man nor wom an wa ever worth the sacrifice insep-l arable from th? deatb-dciling pivgram.j We are convinced that its ue serves no real purpose save mch influence as it may exert as a deterrent to others, but lor the people already discovered it can but accentuate the misery of all concerned, snd often includes in this adverse effect, the lives and interest of many infiocent ones.
