The PLUNGE BATH.-Complaints having been
made in regard to compulsory bathing in cold
water at the asylum for the blind in South Bos-
ton, the committee on charitable institutions
gave hearing Tuesday morning, at which the
following testimony was taken:
Mrs. L. Perry testified that her son had been
an inmate OF the institution for year, but was
removed four weeks ago by advice of A pbysi-
clan on account of the injurious effect of these
baths upon his system. DIR. Howe wrote her
husband that if her son was not able to take the
IA hs he was not able to continue bis studies
Or. Howe renewed that the cold plunge bath
was invariably beneficial and acted accordingly
They are intended as a shock 10 the system.
Ihey are dreaded by many of the pupils. One
boy who had frequently threatened and attemp.
ed TO kill himself from apprehension of them,
did al last commit suicide A little giIl, who
was sick with the measles, took the bath and
died, and young lady died of lung fever con-
tracted in the same way. All the inmates of
the asylum regardless of are or sex are com.
PEELED TO take plunge baths every morning in
water of forty degrees temperature. No eXcep-
tons are made save in acute cases of disease
twenty physicians whom she had consulted
agreed that cold baths were not beneficial to all
persons, and that to some they are cruel and
barbarOuS. The water is drawn over night and
until quite recently no warm water has been
added. Some of the boys sleep in the fifth sto-
rles and they are obliged to 20 down in their
night clothes through cold corridors. No othei
institution has this rule Of compulsory bathing.
She had hot brought the matter before the board
of trustees because DR.. Howe was unconvertble,
and the trustees were as much under his control
As the pupils themselves.
DR.. Edwurd Jarvis appeared to defend the
treatment at the asylum. The temperature was
now regulated by thermometer. That morn
ing it stood at fifty degrees. He conceded with
Dr. Howe in his views on the subject. Mr..
Smith, blind teacher, testified that very few of
the boys like the bath; no examination is made
as to their condition. The hearing was then
closed.

An interesting theological discussion is ex-
pected in Washington between Rev. Dr. New
man, the chaplain of the senate, and two at
taehes OF the Japanese embassy, one of whom
IS SAID TO be priest and the other teacher.
The reverend doctor has had some preyious OK.
perieDee IN such polemics, and has latterly been
studying the writings Of Confucius. So the
Washington dispatches say. Washington is not
the headquarters OF theology in this country
although the japanese may be excused for sun
posing that it is, and DIR. Newman is not per-
haps, the best champion of "our religions thar
could be selected. We can know before hand
substantially what he will say, but the Other
side Of the debate would be interesting, and we
hope il may be published. The discussion is in.
viicd by The japanese and this is an important
indication Of their readiness TO entertain new
ideas in religion, as we as in science, politics
mechanics and finance. Natives OF Japan arc
now forbidden by law to adopt the Christian re-
ligion; but there Is good reason to believe tina
this prohibition is based upon politica
grounds and not upon religious bigotry

The famous richborne case came 10 an un-
timely end yesterday. The jury on Monday de-
clared that they had heard evidence enough to
satisfy them, and the claimant concluded that
the evidence from the other side was not likely
to help his cause, already in bad way. His
counsel, therefore, by his direction, at the open
ing of the court yesterday, announced that the
claim was abandoned. The counsel for the
defence Immediately asked for a warrant to ar
rest the claimant for perjury; the chief justice
granted it, and Arthur Orion, as he must now
be called, was arrested, and slept last night in
Newgate prison. Thus ends one of the most
audacious impostures ever attempted. 1t is
astonishing that any one could have ventured
upon it and still more remarkable that it should
have had even a temporary and partial success
Newgate, or the Tiehborne title and property,
were the alternatives set before the ignorant
Australian butcher and horse thief, and, as he
was INSCRIPTIONS and experienced in crime and
disgrace, he, naturally enough, was willing to
risk a prison for the chance of baronetage
md immense wealth, with the certainty, even if
he should ultimately fail, of temporary notoriety
and luxury. He must have perceived, some
time ago, that his cause was hopeless. Nobody
will pity him in his defeat, and even his par
tSans, who proved their sincerity by providing
funds for the litigation on the security of the
Tichborue bonds, will he the loudest and an
giiest denouncers Of his imposture.

From the State House.
The Burrili Claim Defeated Once More
The House Against Beer-The sale of
the State Arsenal.
BosToN, March 6. 1872

BOSTON, March G, 1872.
Mr.. Kimball Of Boston wound up the debate
on the Buriill claim against the city of Boston
to-day, with an unusually effective speech. i'm
which he exposed the weakness of the claim.
and convinced the house of its unsouudness.
after all the plausible talk by other members in
favor of allowing the claim to be paid. This
claim, when its whole history is taken into ac-
count, is one Of the most remarkable ever pre-.
pared against any government. Starting with
demand for over million dollars, which
Mr.. Burril alleged the city of Boston owed him
for substitutes furnished dur ne the last months
of the war, when "the draft" was imminent II
dwindled down after long Investigation to
the amount Of S125,000, which it is said
the city government at one time was ready
to pay. Then came injunctions, court pro.
ceedings, and protracted debates at the CITY
hall until finally the sum of forty thousand dol.
lars was voted by both branches of the council
when another block occurred in the opinion OF
the city solicitor that there was no legal author
ity for the payment OF anything. OF course
nothing but legislative act could obviate this
difficulty, and this has been now denied, and
The loss will be felt chiefly by Mr.. Henry W
Pane and other lawyers, who have spent large
amount OF time in advocating the claim, and
would have received all the money if il could
ever have been paid.
The members of both branches who believe
in the straight prohibitory doctrine, held a
caucus this morning, and agreed not to tolerate
any amendments to the bill to abolish the ssbeor
clause which came up in the house this after.

Of capital invested, paying half million Of

employing 600 men, claimed that the Law

the cause Of temperance in the state. After mi,
