daughter, girl Of ten years. The warrant vas
issued upon the complaint Of Jane Waters, the
mother Of the glri. The case was inyesti gated
BY Justice Tucker At the Fifth ward station
house. II appears, In evidence, that about Ave
years ago Anderson and Jane Waters, the mother
Of tho child, who had been. living together a.
husband and wifs, parted = Andsrson taxing The
child to raise. subsequently, he married, and the
child was sent to school, and improved quite
rapidly, and waswsll cared for. Recently the

her mother, tried to keep her at homo, and find
Ing her in company with q girl who lived with

being unloosed In order To exhibit the child, and
have the parent arrested. ..,r,-.a la.
The Justice, after hearing tho evidence, re-
marked that the law tecures to the father the
right to correct as well as protect his children.
II Is as much the duty Of tho father 10 correct
improper habits BY corporal punishment, when
necessary, ~ TO feed, olothe, and educate Tire
child. But no parent is justified in unmerci.
fully punishing his offspring or in beating or
torturng them without cause. In this case tho
facts seem to indicate at the frat glance . do.
sign to torture the child; but II the fact that
the father has been always careful Of the child,
clothing II we'll feeding II we'll, and giving II as
fair an opportunity for education as the city
offers and his circumstances permit the idea Of
torture ceases. The mode Of keeping the child
at home seems to be improper but as to cruelty
the marks upon the skin arc not sufficient TO
impress the mind with such belief; ordinary
ohsstissmsnt would result In quite as prominent
marks. Admitting the right Of the hther to
properly chastiss and correct his child, the JUS
tice dismissed the case, suggesting to the father
that mode Of OBTAINING his child at homo
might be employed which would not excite tho
same feeling among the people as in this case
The defence, to show why he did not wish the
child to visit the mother, asked the mother
delicate question as to tho cause Of separation.
The Justice thought II improper to ask her such
o question. II the cause was such as alleged, II
should be shown by other evidence, unless the
witness chose to answer.

General Grant ON the Suffrage Veto.

WASHINGTON, January 5. - In conversation
with General Grant to-day relative TO his re.
ported approval of the Presidents veto OF the
District Suffrage BILL learn the following facts:
He was present at the Cabinet meeting by
request, without previous knowledge of the
biect that would come up for deliberaton.
In the discussion on the bill General Grant
took no part, and after all were through and
be had risen from his seat to depart the Presi.
dent asked him if there would be any impro-
priety in asking his view on the subject Gene
raj Grant replied very briefly, that the obiec-
ton which had been urged by one of the Cabi-
net, that it was unconstitutional because it dis
iranchised Rebels without trial, was, in his esti-
nation the best part of the bill, and exhibited
the most wisdom.
With reference to comforting the right of suE
irage upon the colOred people Of this District,
he remarked that he always thought it iIcon-
sistent on the part of Congress to enforce this
right here while they refused to grant it to the
same class in their own States. Either men,
bprs of Congress should extend this privilege at
home, or wait until the people here asked for it,
This was the extent Of his expression upon the
subject. Upon the arguments and prime pies
Involved In the Message he uttered no opinion
