[By Electric Telegraph—Copyright) Times and Sydney Sun Services. (Received 8 a.m.) Loudon, March 16.
Or. Mercier, in a letter to the press, says he considers the authorities exaggerate the outcry which would follow the death' of a hunger-striker. The general verdict would be,: “Serve her Right!” The value of life was overestimated as much as it was underestimated a century ago, ’ when 500 would be simultaneously sentenced to death at Newgate. The doctor rejcommends that if the authorities shirk their duty in alulowing these criminals to inflict death sentences upon themselves that they proclaim them outlaws.
