TIE Boom During the late high water in the
Susquehanna River, large quantities of round
logs have been caught by false booms constructed
at different points from Point Concord, below
Havre de Grace, to Cooley's Point above the
town. They are then taken from the booms and
gathered into what are called "sacks," and in this
condition towed to Swan Greek. The catching
and sacking Of these logs affords, we are told,
considerable employment while it lasts.

Child Murder.

This favorite amusement Of Puritanism is still
kept up in the New England States with the
same horrible brutality and heartlessness with
which it was Mt first commenced. 1t is difficult
to pick upa New York newspaper which does
not treat its readers to detailed account OF
some horrible child murder, or the starvation,
beating and brutal treatment of some homeless
and defenceloss infant. What incites these de-
mons in human shape to those acts Of cruelty to-
wards the innocent and uuoiferding, is difficult
20 understand. That one man might ill-treat or
even torture other, may be accounted for on the
score of retaliation for some real or supposed
wrong and injury; but what excuse or palliation
is there for the outrageous brutality constantly
practiced in the North aud East, upon innocent
and unoffending children. II one hundredth
part of the cruelty which HIS been practiced in
the North and East upon white children, in the
last three yeas, had been practiced in the slave
holding States upon black children in the last
half century, the land of wooden nutmegs would
have been well nigh drowned out with the tears of
their strong-minded women. What a delightful
subject it would have been forthe Summers and
Beechers to have harEaHgued the populace upon2
What valuable material it would have furnish
ed for q second "Uuce Toms Cabin?" What
fruitful theme it would have been for their po-
litical parsons to have poured forth from their
pulpits, on the Sabbath, instead Of poluting them
with falsehoods against their neighbors, as they
do now2 But this cruelty is not IN the South,
but in the North and it is not black children but
white children, and, therefore, there is no room
for sympathy among pious Purtans. These are
the people who pretend to all the morality and
religion they are like the Pharisees, thank their
blessing that other men are not like them
But they are the people ofgreat moral ideas; they
print almanacs, and school books, and manufat-
turs wooden nutmegs and get up Hiss commit
tses-all for the purpose of convincing the world
how moral shey are. If one of these chd-de-
stroyers happens to be prosecuted the plea of in
sanity is at once set up as IN excuse for the crime
At the trial of one of these child-destroyers, a
dispatch from Norwich, Conn, says:
The trial of G. G. Williams, the spirituaist,
who, in January last, starved his child a girl of
Is years, nearly TO death, commenced before the
Superior Court here on Tuesday The evidence
shows that he kept her in a cold room on water
and Cruel for three weeks and for three days
gave her no food; gagged her for speaking to
him, and with his alleged paramount, cowhided
her some twenty-five times. The girl escaped by
jumping from the third story Nindow into a snow
bank She testified in court o.day. The de-
Tense admits the fact, but pleads insanity.
