Sir William Blackstone wrote, in
his Commentary on the English law,
that a man had a right to whip his
wife, if he did it in moderation. Mr.
Gritty, in his notes on Blackstone,
thinking it SANDER and disgrace to
England, disputed and denied that
man possessed any such right. He
branded it rs q relic of barbarism.
While the majority Of men endorse
what Mr.. Gritty said on this subject,
vet how many men who, while they
do not whip their wives, treat them
as menials-a large number of which
would inflict corporal punishment
for what they consider dereliction
Of duty, if they did not fear the ef-
fects of this upon an outraged COM
munity. That many wives 10
wrong, we do not pretend to deny;
but is that a sufficient reason for
abuse and punishment from the hus-
band? If wives who do wrong are
to be punished, then what is to lie
done with husbands who do likewisef
As to rights, the husband has no more
than the wife, except as they are Civ
en- to him by the municipal law oil
the State. The husband is recog.
nized by Divine, common, and stat
utory law, rs being the head Of the
family, for the transaction Of all le-
gal business; the wife's rights being
held in allegiance during the life time
OF the husband. As to the socia
rights of the husband and wife. they
are the same, and should be. If s
man has the right TO get drunk, chew
tobacco, stay out late of nights, visi
| bawdy houses, and spend his time il
, loahng, then a wife has all the sam,
f rights, and the man who does so, ha,
no right to complain of his wife TO
doing the same.

DRUNKENNESS IN TIE ARMY.

a Chaplain, who has been in the
army three years, writes from Spring
field, Massachusetts, that whisky
kills more men in the army than reb-
ell bullets If this Chaplain refers to
soldiers drinking, in the army, be
simply says what is false. for we
know that the private soldier in the
army does not drink, for the Gov
eminent does not furnish him with
liquor. If certain class Of officers
are referred to, as getting drunk, and
through mismanagement get their
men killed, wounded and captured,
then we may agree with him, that
nearly all the great disasters which
have befallen our noble army have
been occasioned by drunkenness,
and a failure of officers to CO oper-
ate with each other.
