The Horrors Of the shower Bath.


The Shower Bath punishment in the
New York prisons is the ono most
dreaded by the convict. He Is placed

yoke, his arms stretched to the right
and left, when the keeper pulls a cord
and large body Of water continues 10
fall upon his head until the keeper lets
go Of the cord 1t is claimed the water
Is shut of as scon as the convict will
promise amends. Sometimes such q
promise is extortcd at once; sometimes
not; but compliance comes sooner or
later The power to bear up under the
infection differs 10 different individuals
One man will suffer terribly from few
gallons OF water. and others will take
barreis and snlfer less. One parsop has
a tradition Of q negro who could endure
several hogsheads without wincing. II
is said that all negroes are Affected by

The N. Y. Ladepeadsat has broken
out in q new place; it says -" Under
the present auspices at Washington
(unless we greatly misjudge the signs
Of the times, the Republican party
viii gradually grow weaker aud weaker,
and their opponents steadily stronger
and stronger, The moral sympathy
which formerly united the Republican
ranks into an irresistible phalanx is
now becoming dull and chill in each
mans breast. The elected leader cares
for no great idea, aud does not seem TO
suspect that his party is at this moment
beginning TO fall of from him because
he is lifted to station which is one
plane too high for his genius. Then,
too, like ball on fountain, Congress
keeps alternately tossed up and down.
The omen was i'll when Congress 80 far
forgot Justice and duty as to admit the
vote Of Georgia ia the Electoral College
The omen was III when Congress re.
fused TO pass law making suffrage uni.
form throughout the land. The omen
WINS in when Congress, by an express
vote, struck out from the 18th article
the right to hold Office. IL Is hard to
hold this tickle nation steadfastly to a
moral purpose when its Chief Magistrate
has no genuine sympathy for moral
ideas, and when is chosen representa-.
tives arc constantly compromising their
own Convictions

TaE WESTERN WHEAT CHor.--All
accounts agree that, notwithstanding
the great severity Of the winter In the
West, the wheat crop never was know n
to be in more promising condition. =
The great depth Of the snow prevented
winter killing, and its gradual removal
BY rains and moderate thaw saved the
wheat from being hcaved up out Of the
soil. IL Is quito forward, even although
the season in other respects is at least
three weeks later than usual; and the
present prospect that ~ barring cut
worms, weevils. smut and other mis-
chances which may be in the future,
gamblers included--thc Western wheat
crop Of 1869 will be a very liberal one |;
and With more extended facilities for
msrkstfng, tho Western growers and
Esstsrn consumers would equally profit.

very wisely provides for such an election
as by II the different schools are brought

OTR WEEKLY.

Now that the business season is
about opening, we think it an oppor-
tune time TO call the attention of
merchants and Others to the peculiar
advantages that await all who adver-
tise in the WEEKLY APPEAL. In
Arkansas its circulation is as large as
that of any of the country press of that
State, and as much so as that of any
of the country press of Mississippi or
West Tennessee. Advertisers may
thus be assured that whatever they
advertise in the WEEKLY APPEAL
will find as ample circulation as fin
serted in the three best weekly papers
printed in Arkansas, Mississippi, and
West Tennessee. Our merchants, in
surance men and traders, will do well
to bear this in mind and to remember
that labOring in their interests we
have claims to their support and
preference. Our next WEEKLY
APPEAL will appear on Wednesday
morning.
