GENTLEMEN: Your correspondent in Satur-

elimination as exhibited by your remarks in
relation to those in charge OF the public

reference to your remarks, under a communica-

you say 1--WE hope all is done for the best-we
have great confidence in those having control of
the natter" Is it implied from this that you
approve of cutting down these sycamores? We
say by no means, you are not sn to lie under.
stood; or, in other words, we do not give it
that rendition. We imply from your remarks,
that you have great confidence in the Prcsi-
dent, who has control in this matter, not the
public gardener. Ii the President has ordered
the cutting of these trees, we have not one
word to say. But when Working men hobbies
off by saying the t'sycamores flourish best near
the water or low grounds and then refers to
those planted by an lrishman in the green
house yard, we led to infer that those in
the west Capitol yard were planted by an
American, and are not deserving of d place
there. z .. .s .a. 5g
Now, Messrs Editors, we are American born,

like to see and call to the minds of our youths
some of the acts of our fathers. And can W,
do it better than by taking our children by the
hand at some leisure hour, go to the Capito
| yard, and, under the shade of those noble syca
mores, relate the history and the scenes of the
past. Was it not the wish of Washington that
our national city should be adorned with the
sycamore and the elm? N.

CORPOREAL PUNISHMENT IN SCHOOLS.


MEssRs. EDIToRs: | noticed not long since
IN your paper, an article which had been pre-
pared by a female teacher of this city, and read
at meeting of the Teachers Association. Its
object was to advocate the affirmative Of the
question, . Ought corporeal punishment to be
entirely abolished in schools?" and | wish to
make brief reply to it, in order to prevent a
misapprehension on the part of your readers in
relation to the position of those who advocated
the negative of the question. The ant-pua-
ishaent advocates appear to take it for granted
that their opponents are in favor of much pun
ishment, frequent and severe applications of
the rod, and thereupon grayely talk of be,aeoo-
tence, humanity, sc. Now, those who listened
to the discussions on this subject will do the
negative the justice to acknowledge that they
were as strong advocates for the law Of love
and kindness as their opponents could be. They
contended that oraer in school is Indispensable
and, in securing this, the minimum of pun
ishment is the maximum of excellence;" that
cases will occur in which n resort to the rod is
necessary. Now, by reference to the last part
of the article already referred to, it will be seen
that the writer grants all we ask; for she APP
proves the Austrian law, which allows the in
Fiction of corporeal punishment in some instances
Should any of your readers be disposed to
advocate in the columns of your paper the affr-
native of this interesting question: and should
you think it advisable to publish some articles
on the subject, | have no doubt that the other
side will find a defender c..
