TERRIBLE CRUELTIEs ON BoARn IT G
VEssEL.-An officer just returned from Kew
West brings information that Commander
William r. Mayo, of the U. s. frigate Con-
gress, lying at that port, for some trifinc in
traction OF discipline on the part of seaman
of his ship, placed tine man in double irons
with his hands behind him .and around a
stanchlon. He then caused line 10 be made
fast to the mans wrists and rove through an
eyebolt in the beam above. The line, acting
as a'small tackle, was then hauled taut, which
forced the mans arms up backward, until the
joints fairly snapped in their sockets. The
officer who brings the information witnessed
the affair with face burning with indicua-
ton, but was poweriess to prevent it.
The poor fellow fingered in excruciatinq
agony for hours, till finally he was cut down.
and next day the same operation was gone
through with. On that day, while writhnp
in agonies indescribable, and uttering cries
which could be heard from truck to keeIsop.
he gathered all his strength, and with one con-
vulsive effort sought to free himself from tbe
terrible punishment. With muscles Of his
face risidly set, and with his teeth closed like
vice, be threw his whole weight backward on
the tautened line, but it would not give.
Something else did however. The mans rioht
arm turned backward over his shoulder. and
with shrek which almost palsied the heart
Of those unwilling witnesses, the poor fellow
tainted away.
DR.. E. S. Bogert, the surgeon OF the vessel
VINO was present, and who had protested in
the strongest manner against this outrageous
cruelty, cut the line and removed the irons
from the mans wrist, announced to the brutal
commander that the right shoulder was disIo-
Gated, and told him that renewal of the
punishment would certainly result in death.
4. Inc man was then taken to the sick bay, and
the shoulder set, whereupon MAYO ordered
him to duty. DR.. Bogelt then protested. and
explained to the ignorant fool the necessities
OF such serious surgical case. At first Mayo
would not listen to him, bat finally withdrew
his order, and took his revenge upon the doc
tor by ordering him to watch constantly by
the mans cot until he could report him again
ready for duty.
The Navy Department will order ar inyes.

The Atlantic Telegraph reports the death
at London, by drowning, of John Walter. Jr,
son of Mr.. Walter, lchief proprietor of the
Times. 1t is just three weeks since Mr.. Wal.
ter Jr', lett America, expecting to reach home
Just before Christmas. He had just returned
rom voyage around the worid-was at the
opening of the Suez canal, and went to India,
Australia, China, and Japan, returning by the
way of California and the Pacific railroad 10
Albany, where be remained with Mr.. Pruyn
for few days. Four years previous he had
paid q similar visit with his father. The tele-
graph gives no details of the catastrophe. But
to pass over world of perils In safety only
to perish in sight of home and among friends,
is as inscrutable dispensation as it is sad.

The SENATE In EXECUTIVE SESSION.
There is time in the Senate when all as
sumption OF dignity and propriety passe,
away, and that era is the executive session.
when the galleries are cleared and the specta.
tors politely but firmly banished The doors
aie then closed, and, with the exception of
the sergeant alarms and the chef messenger
and executive clerks, no one is permitted TO
witness the peculiar scene OF confirming or
rejecting nominations or regulating treaties
with foreign powers. Then the Senate be-
comes family party, happily released from
the rigid propriety OF entertaining company.
Away goes dignity, decorum and gravity
cigars are lighted and smoked ad Hbitup,, and
the secret public business Is transacted yrry
much after the fashion of a social gathering.

quently quarrel, wrangle, backbite and snarl
to a degree Tar exceeding the extreme violence
displayed occasionally 10 the House of kepte-
sentatives; and If the latter body be Justly
characterized as "bear garden" the Sepate
in secret session is certainly an entire menaR-
erie and ciicus, with vast preponderapce Of
the molly Gowns over all other performers.
fortunately, however, this is hermetic and

MR. EDITo8.-In answer to the enquiry o,
your unknown correspondent we would say
that the G. A. r. and the p. A. & N. U. ara
two separate and distinct organizations.
The G. A. r. is National Organization with
head quarters at Washington, D. c., Maj
Gen. John A. Logan Commander in Chief
In each Stale there is Department con-
trolling all posts in said States, Gen. c. p
Mattocks, Commander OF the Department of
Maine. The G.. A. r. is an organization
whose chief corner stone is to care for the
needy and their comrades, and for the widows
and orphans Of those who fell by the stern
hand of war. 1t is one of their vital princl-
pies, and how well they are living up to their
record shows, and many an otherwise TREND
less woman or iorsaken child will bear wit
ness.
They bring to their work the advantages OF
organized sJ stematic effort, and are thus epa-
bled to do the work more efectualy. They
are recognized as true friends by those they
aim to serve, many OF whom were compan-
ions of better days, and thus have better az
f""il"ucc Win tuSir wants anu ueeuS.-
They do not con6ne their benevolence to
members of their organization alone, but to
all to whom the fortunes Of war brought
want and suffering To have been true,
honorable, deserving soldier, or the widow or
orphan of such, is the only passport to their
charity. Let every one of our citizens do as
mrch as each comrade of the G.. A. R. Is do.
ing TO carry out this beneAcent work, and all
those made sufferers by the war whom We are
pledged to provide for, will be made comforts
bic and happy, and we shall have the con-
sclousness that the solemn promises made in
she hour of trial are faithfully kept.

AN OLD FASHIONED FAILURE.-A good
story is told Of two old merchants, In Es-
sex county, who once attempted to fail. They
were brothers; and by honest industry had
acquired handsome independence, and were
spending the evening of their days in COM
Portable, quiet way, keeping a store, which
they both diligently tended rather for the
comfort and convenience OF having place of
daily and regular resort, than for any great
profit in their business. Well, being easy,
good. natured sort of men, they had 'just as
a matter Of forni," put their names to the pa
per Of a son of one OF them, in business in
neighboring town. Matters went on as usual
TOR some time after the old gentlemen had
adopted this bad habit of endorsing the Young
mans paper. But at length this son and
nephew discovered that he could not paw. his
honest debts, and so informed his father and
uncle. The old gentlemen sat down in their
ltather-bottom chairs to look over this matter
and to decide on what they should do. swell
if E. has lailed," says Capt. A., 81 suppose we
have, too, haven't we, brother?" "W6y, YES"
replied Capt. E., 81 don'tsee but we have: and
II we have we must take down our sign, and
not pretend to be doing business in the ordi.
nary way" These points settled, the old
gentlemen proceeded to dismantle their store
OF its weather-stained old sign, and then sat
themselves down to wait for creditors to come
in and attach their goods and chattels. But
to their surprise nobody came near them, and
they went through the forenoon as usual, At
dinner time they made their way with seri-
BUSINESS to their respective homes, and as
Capt. e. reached bis fine old mansion on H
street, he looked cautiously around, expectipe o
to see strang faces in his apartments, But
seeing none, he turns 10 bis eldest daughter
and In solemn voice inquiries: rs there NO
body here but the family. my daughter ?'Z
Nobody, father" "Have there not been anv
strangers here this forenoon?" "No one.
Why, cid you expect any one, fa,her?" "Why
yes. l have failed my daughter; at least.
suppose have; for E. has; and / expected
the sherffs here and keepers" -
But no sherifs came, and no creditors
troubled the old men. Everybody knew thai
they would pay their honest debts, and NEE
all their engagements ii it was in their power
so to do; and that it was useless and senseless
to resort to the usual methods of colectihc
debts OF them. So, in spite OF all the brother:
could do to tatl and have their property at
tachod, nobody seemed iuclinel to disturb
them; and so they utterly tailed to fail. to the
great amusement OF their younger neiobbor,
IN trade, some of whom, though now Old
themselves, continue to laugh over Can't, e
