A WOMAN HELD FOR CRUELTY
WHIPPING HER sTEP-BAUGH-

AAhs
Mrs. Mary Forsyth, the second wife of
Joseph Forsyth, was under examination
for cruelty whipping and maltreating her
step-daughter, nine years Of age. The
neighbors of Forsyth, respectable citizens,
entered complaint that the child was ill
treated, and they we're fearful that it would
be killed if not protected. The little girl
One of the smartest children of her age
we ever saw-presents a distressing and
emaciated appearance, and bears the evil
dence of ill-usage She was placed on the
stand aud gave her evidence in a straight
forward and truthful manner. She was
corroborated by an elder sister, who was
compelled to leave home on account of i'll,
usage from her step-mother, and by neigh
bors who, on different occasions, had been
greatly excited on hearing the shrieks
of the child when she was being unmer-
cifully whipped. The appeals of the girl
to the Police Justice for protection from
her step-mother brought tears from eyes
unused to weeping and drew about her in
loving sympathy all who heard her. The
Police Justice held Mrs. Forsyth for trial.
The testimony of the youngest girl was
rather severe on her father, and favored
conclusions that he was entirely under the
influence of his wife He promised the
court that in the future there should be no
cause for complaint, and insisted that his
little daughter should return home with
him. The Justice said that he had a right
to the custody of the child, but he should
Immediately apply to Supreme Court
Justice for the appointment of a guardian
for her Mr.. FORSYTH then consented that
the little one should reside with a neighbor
for the present. When this was made
known to the little innocent she was enrap-
tured with delight, and new life seemed to
be infused into her whole being. She will
be clothed and treated like a human
being Rochester On ~ Union.

PROGRESS OF EDUCATION IN NEW
KORK

.... NoAA,
At the commencement exercises Of one
of our public schools the other day some
interesting statements were made regarding
the progress of education in New York,
and the obstacles which its advocates had
to contend against. One of the speakers re-
called the time when states were unknown
and writing was taught after the Lancas-
sterian method, by means Of a large shall
low box filled with sand in which the let
tiers are made with the fore finger. Another
gentleman alluded 10 the outcTy raised
against the introduction of pianos in the
schools, and the objections to teaching the
pupils singing. 1t is only fourteen years
since an appropriation of three thousand
dollars, by the Board of Education, to pur-
chase pianos, was declared to be an extrav-
agance, and even when music was finally
introduced, an effort was made 10 limit in
struction in it to the wealthy classes, as it
was thought TO be unsuited for poor chill
dren. 1t is now leading feature Of our
school system. -
The interest taken in our schools by other
nations is proof Of their high standing.
From all parts Of the world visitors aud
inquiries come, and the frequent attempts at
imitation are the strongest proof OF their
appreciation. In the Argentine Republic
and some other parts of South America this
has been done, while in Switzerland an ex-
act model OF one of onr schools wss erected
some time since to test its workings. A
short time ago the Russian educational
authorities wrote to the Secretary Of the
Board Of Education for documents relating
TO our schOols, with view of Introducing
some Of their features IN Russia. Mr..
Frazer's report has already acquainted the
English public with the same facts, and at
tracted much attention. ..-.s..r
just previous to the breaking out OF the
war Mr.. Memminger, afterwards Con
federAte Cabinet officer, examined the New
York schools, and engaged twelve OF our
best teachers 10 90 10 Charleston, with 8
view to Introduce the system there and
but for the breaking out ofthe war the plan
would doubtless have succeeded.

with the terms il prescribes, are denied the
right Of voting for President and Vice
President, while the people Of New YORK,
portion of whose inhabitants were also in
rebellion, is permitted to have is electoral
vote counted without undergoing the pro-
cess Of reconstruction presented for Vir-
ginia. New York is no more State than
Virginia. The one is as much entitled to
be represented in the Electoral College as
the other. If Congress has the power to
deprive Virginia Of this right, il can eKer-
else the same az thoroughly with New
York or any Of the other States Then the
result Of the Presidential election may be
controlled and determined by Congress,
and the people be deprived of their rights
under the Constitution to choose a Presi-
dent and Vice President of the United
States. .-r. .# .a
If Congress- were to provide by law that
the votes of none of the States should be
received and counted If cast for a candidate
who differed in political sentiment from
majority of the two houses, such legislation
would at once be condemned by the coun-
try as an Unconstitutional and revolutionary
usurpation of power. 1t would, however,
NC tACttuluBiy ultuCull 10 uHu III tuS NDu-
stitution any more authority for the joint
resolution under consideration than for an
enactment directly rejecting all votes not
in accordance with the political preference
Of a majority Of the members Of Congress.
No power exists under the Constitution au-
thorizing the joint resolution, or the pro-
posed law, the only difference being that
one would be more palpably unconstitu-
tional and revolutionary thar the other.
They would both rest upon the radical
error that Congress has power to prescribe
terms and conditions to the people Of the
States precedent to their casting their votes
for the President and Vice President.
For the reasons thus indicated, am con-
strained to return the joint resolution to the
Senate, for such further action thereon as
Congress may deem necessary.
