FLoGGING IN THE BRITIsH MAYA
poor fellow, perhaps, is half drunk when he is
wanted at his post. He is not TO be found. He
is brought ''aft' by the ''master at arms;'' and
after having his blood, eyes, and limbs pretty
horribly cursed, he is ordered into irons: that isa
leg shaclsle is passed around one or both of his
ankles, and he is locked to long iron bar upon
the lower deck forward, and sits upon the Md
shipments chests, guarded by sentry with
drawn bayonet. In day or two, usually, he is
ordered TO he punished. The hands--a hands
are called to punishment The men on
the main deck-the officers armed on the quarter
deck. A grating is dashed in the ''waist, reach
ing from one deck TO the olher to this grating the
poor soul is dashed, with arms and legs outsretch-
ed, having been previously stripped of his shirt.
Three boatswain's mates and the boatswain
himself in attendance, each with an ac-
cursed cat in his hand. The surgeon and bis
mate are also at hand, 10 give notice how many
dozens he can bear. The man cries aloud for
mercy--his eyes, limbs and blood are again very
frequently cursed. 'tBoalswains mate, give him
a Dozen" His cries are frequently heart-rendng
--''Lord God Almighty, hear me-have mercy
on me! 0 Christ, hear me! Pray God, sir, for
gve!' He appeals to the officers, by name, to
speak for him. He has received his dozen. The
order proceeds -'Give him another dozen.'' A
tresh 0oatsWaln mate gives MIN announcer dozen;
and so this debasing work proceeds, sometimes to
four dozen lashes. myself have seen one poor
soul receive part of twelve hundred Iashes after
trial by court martial! The cat has nine tails of
white line, hardly twisted, and far thicker than a
whipcord; in each tail are frequently three knots,
made by passing one strand over the other two
strands, and these cats are welded by fresh and
powerful men. Any naval officer will assure you
that, after the first dozen, pieces of skin and
flesh are cut off the sufferers back at every
LASH

% There is now a surplus of within fraction
of 1000 600 in the Treasury, notwithstanding the
Secretary is redeeming United States stocks, and
otherwise paying the public debit as fast as the law
TO that end will allow him. Thus it appears that
the governments revenues are increasing so rapidly
that the public debt is being fast eXtinguished,
without materially decreasing the amount of cash
hand.
Seeing that Uncle Sam is so very flush just now,
would it not be well for the present administration
of our State Government to push that little claim
which our own Commonwealth has upon him. The
is justly due and it might be the of saving
a deal Of grumbling over the State tax.

From BALTIMORE TO PITTsBURG.-Here
is an example and triumph Ask the demo-
crats to read The Williams County (Ohlo)
Democrat, has left the ranks OF Southern De-
mocracy, and tales a stand upon the great Ma
tiOnal platform laid down at PiItsbuTg. 1t Is
gratifying TO chronicle these frequent accesslons
TO our party of ably conducted newspapers, IRON
the old organizations. The True Democrat says:
civilian A. Hunter, Of the " illiams County
Democrat, has boldly, and in a manly spnit,
abandoned Hunkerism, and declared for Free
dom. Who he is, and what he is, as citizen,
the old Liners, hereabouts know. What he has
been as a politician, the Northwest can answer,
as it has answered through one Of her ablest sons,
that w. A. Hunter was among the foremost OF
her Democrats leader"
Mr.. Hunter remarks upon the change of the
paper, thus nobly:
''Some say we have been bought'-others that
we dare not do il'-others that we are mot gov
erned by principle and others that we shall be
broken down.. We say we are not unadvised of
these facts; but as we are actuated by principle
in the matter. we are perfectly willing to be per-
secuted for principles sake. We are also told
that an odd line press will be brought into the
county, if we make the change-if so, we can
not help it; we are not to be scarf with any
such threats, from what we consider our duty
We are willing to be called anything that hun
kerism may feel disposed to heap upon us, for the
sake of principle, and If we are called aboli-
ZIONIST, wing, or what not, we will not murmur;
but of one thing we are certain, that we have a
greater love for Democratic principles, than any
of those who denounce the compromise measures,
and yet support them We have nothing to say
of those who differ with us; as we hold it to be
aselt evident truth, that every man has perfect
right to think, speak, and act for himself, and
that alone, in what we seek to do in making The

which has monthly session during the year. Not
one of the Judges oil the Court, however, has
been taken from the Suffolk Bar. Three of the
Judges are from Berkshire county,"
We copy the above from the Lowell Journal
Parson Hudson, who always looks at things in their
pecuuiary bearings, explains the reason for all THE.
He says that the salary wont pay enough to make
object for Suffolk lawyers TO take seat upon the
bench; they can earn more at the bar, than on the
BENCH present prices, and OF course, the judges
must be taken from the small towns, where lawyers
are in the habit of working for less pay.
