No one can be entirely we'll who thus suffers, and in hundreds of cases, health is utterly undermined Od-school medi- cines and drugs do but little good-often much injury; but HUMPHREYS SPECIFIC HOAEO- PATHIC FEMALE PILLS are just the thing, re- lieving promptly, and curing perman ently.

whipping a &c hool-boy.

Mr.. Eugene Brown was arrested, on Saturday
by Oficer Clark ,on the charge of severely whip.
ping boy named Thomas Mccoy, in his school
on Friday. Mr.. Brown is the teacher Of a Cath
olio school kept in the building formerly owned
by the late Judge Douglas. on Third street, and
the boy is one of his scholars, who, it is alleged
is very bad child, and is addicted to truant
playing. 1t appears that Mr.. Brown chastised
him for this offence on Friday, and whipped him
with ferule until he was considerably bruised
The justice thought the whipping too severe
and held Mr.. Brown to security to answer the
charge before court.
