Of course you remember !of one. of his victims. l So far-reaching anl immutable Is this law that it is plainly laid down that even the infant in arms who ac- cidentally causes the death of its moth- er must suffer the extreme penalty, provided the infant has grown its teeth. For instance, an infant borne in the arms of its nurse and carrying in its tiny hand some sharp instrument, may let the same fall, and thereby ac- cidentally cause the death of its moth- er; and if it should happen that the infant has one tooth in its head at the time it will be doomed to the extreme penalty of lingch’i and decapitation; but if it has no teeth’ it will escape all consequences. Such is the barbar- ous law of China. It is the only law that offers no loophole for the escape of the perpetrator. whether the death was premeditated or the result of ac» cident. All other laws and penalties have been and can be evadedâ€"for the‘ usual consideration. A parricide not only brings certain death on himself, but disgrace on the district. in which he resides. In the case where both parents are victims Chin- ese law ordains that a corner of the district city walls shall be pulled down as a lasting chronicle of the shame and disgrace of the district in having shel- tered such a monster. The magistrate and local officials are cashiered and delrarred forever from public employ- ment, as a punishment for not having taught, more effectively, the doctrine of filial piety, while the governor of the province, with his colleagues. the treasurer and judge, together with the taotai and prefect of the district, are all degraded several steps in rank. In the case of the murder of both parents the murderer is not only sentenced to undergo lingch’i and decapitation. but his body is nailed on the 1N HIS MASTER’S STEAD. But. never has it happened since China had a history that one who occasioned , the death of his parent or parents has ; contrived to buy himself off or escape i the lingch’i, or ox-eared knife, and the 5 executioner's heavy two-handed sword. ! So deeply has the doctrine of the an- ] cient sages on the observance of filial « piety become rooted in the hearts ofl the peOpJe of China that no magistrate 3 would dare to exercise leniency by tak- 1 ing into consideration the circumstan- ces that led to a case of parricide or, matricide with the view of mitigat-, ing the doom fixed by law. Not only l would the magistrate incur thereby"; the danger of violence from the mob, but he would subvert the obedience due from his own family. IAN. In China. when a parent has met with death at the hands of a son or daughter, no circumstance of intention or age are permitted to interfere with the infliction of the penalty, which is followed by decapitation. Any mitiga- tion of this cruel sentence would be considered by the Chinese as aiming a blow at the fundamental principle of filial duty, which is supposed to be the groundwork of their code. Time and again has the penalty of lingch‘i been recorded against parricides or matricides, even when they happened to be idiots, or lunatics, and, therefore, not accountable for their actions. The corruption and venality of the great mass of officials in this empire has become a by-word, and it is not strange, therefore, that justice can easily be evaded through bribery. Thus a wealthy man who has been guilty of killing a fellow creature, whether by premeditation or accident, can cs- cape all serious consequences and re- ceive a sentence of three years’ ban- ishment to a spot 1000 miles distant instead of the death penalty. Or, on the other hand, when the relatives of the murdered men are powerful en- ough to make themselves heard by the officials, and to demand the strict ob- servance of the lex talionis, the rich criminal may purchase a substitute from among the beggar class, or per- haps an old and faithful servant, of the family may be permitted to for- feit his life M'IIIu-r Influence Sul- Without another a look behin’l, h! ‘ the troops who we! wag never seen 85;: dot. 13 tms a?!
