Simon Syntar, ESP
While listening to some pitiful story A.
bout how one Joliny Smith, Billy Piper or Tom
Somebody was whipped by the teacher of dis
trict school-with great big stick, as thick, as
your tpo fingers, and call for doing nothing"
(the innocent lamb!) it has often occurred to me
that it would be great victory for the juvc-
nile world if they could have whipping abolis sh-
cd And have no doubt that it ought to be
done not because of the universal innocence
of the ''poor dears" who occasionally get "trim-
med :" but for the simple reason that "cat-o-
nine-tails," 'hickory switches" and cow-hides
never accomplished anything great in the world.
Is any one such ninny as to believe that such
men as Washington, Napoleon, or Alexander
were ever whipped into ,grcatnessG No. And
whipping never was of any more benefit to
boys mind than to his back and l am GER
tain that the impressions left on his back by use
of the rod, were not favorable.
1t is true, that custom makes law in this res
pcct, but the custom of using the rod arose al
together from misapprohension of what Solo
mon said Talk of governing school with
out tho necessary instruments of torture, in
presence of some of our old "Spartan Fathers"
and instantly: "Spare the rod and spoil the
child' is flung into your teeth with an air
of assurance that seems to settle the question.
Now, think, what Solomon meant by "spa-
ring the rod,'' was sparing the child too much
of the rod-and keeping none for yourself. But
suppose he did mean it, as it is generally taken;
then, he did not "practicc what he preached" )"
for, when certain son of his grew up to
manhood, lie showed the consequence of the old
gentleman's training, by kicking up his heels in
a rebellion that might have done honor to jeff
Davis. Then Solomon said unto Joab, his
great general, Qhis was when Joab was sent

e5-It is true, as the abolitionists say, that If
there had been no slaves, there would have been
no war. But may it not also be true, that, If
there had been no abolitionists, there would have
been no war?-LOu. Jour-, March 16.
If there had been no slavery, there could have
been no abolitionism; cause precedes effect.
LOGIC.
True, if there had been no slavery, there could
have been no abolitionism; and, if there had
been no property, there could have been no rob-
berry; and if there had been no houses there could
have been no arson and, if there had been no
marriage there could have been no adultery;
and if there had been nopeople there could have
been no murder.

grains, every two hours, (ntermtting it at mighty :.

week or more. judging from her other attack. (The
patient now walked into the rooml The improve

notice marked change in the appearance of her
joints, which are now nearly of their natural size.
Thus far our experiment would have seemed very
successful but gentlemen, we must wait little
while before we car give decided opinion as to
what is to be the result.
Here is another patient who was placed on the
use of the same medicine Sunday last; she has
long been suffering from chronic rheumatism, and |
found her at that time with an acute attack super
vening upon her chronic affection. The wrists and
knuckes were much swo lien and tense. She took
the chloride of propylamne in three grain doses
every two hours, and you will perceive that the
swelling of the JOINTS has much diminished.
