Riggs Corrected.
From the Wilmington Del.) Commercial,
Dec. POI -
In a recent speech our Congressman, Mr..
Biggs, who can raise as many peaches per
acre as the next man, and doesn't get
frightened if the market is little dull,
made very serious error. He assured the
House that /: $50 far as the State of Della
ware is concerned, and especially as re-
CARDS the whipping-post, that is an insti-
Triton which we ourselves to-day are proud
of. 1t has only been established for felons
and scoundrels and thieves and robbers
and to the glory of the State be it said, that
no man has been caught back at it second
time after he has been once properly
whaled." AKA
Now the fact is that it is a common thing
for man to be whipped more than once.
AT the recent session of court one Luton
was whipped for larceny, who had been
lashed at the same post, by the same
"cat-o'-nine tails, y not less than twice or
thrice previously. ndtton said he had
ceased to care for the punishment, and he
had evidently lost all sense of humiliation
or shame. We undertake to say that if
any careful examination is made of the
court records, and the sheriff. records Gf
they keep any, that it will be found that
at least one-flth, if not one-fourth, of the
whippings annually are inflicted on persons
who had been sopunished previously. No
statistics of crime are collected or published
in the State. Nobody knows the precise facts
or figures, but the friends of the lash, the adj
mirers of the whipping-post among whom
we grieye to see a humane and civilized gen.
tleman like Mr.. Biggs,) have long made the
bold and unfounded claim that people were
never " whaled twice." 1t is time this as
sumption were exploded, and we here take
occasion to do SO. The statement is not
true, and the records will show its falsity
Wesay again, that though the lash and the
" convict's jacket" system have the effect
Of driving many of our criminals into other
States, many do come back to the whip
ping-post to be dashed a second time and
even oftcner. aaraHT
