refute the sousensieal topic that under the opts. of

was the rule of all geoid company, when disputes were
settled by mortal combat, and the most open de.
benchery was a title to honour—there nersr have been
wanting Englishmen who have maintained at a
high point the national honour of their country. But
till we sae canes to think that the heroism of a

queues of the faults of their training sad the vices
of their age, we shall be at a loss to discover any
connexion between the punishment of the birch and
the traditional neediness of the English (hareem.
A punishment which, as Mourne:matt observes'
begins by violating all mane of modesty and self.
respect, is surely a strange reparation for that cha-
ncier of the English gentleman, an sweetie
attribute of which is that it should • hal a stain
like a wound." In spite of the silly sophistries
which have so unworthily been brought to bear on
the subject, we trait that Mr. Tlllllll2ll, Janke.,
will not have resisted, nor Mr. 11111111311, senior,
have written, is vain. It is high time that this
brutal relic of barbarism should for ever be
abolished ; and that English gentlemn should no
longer be called upon to indict upon their adult
pupils what our gaolers are no longer permitted to
indict upon adult felons.
