.OUR LASH SYSTEM OF PUEIsHMENT.

The following communication states Its own
case;
To ne Editor Off Commercial.
friend Of humanity is glad to see by your
paper OF Monday, that you have not altogether
gone back on your principles with regard TO that
disgrace OF Delaware, the whipping post" Don't
for humanity sake, give up the cause you have
90 nobly defended eyer since yonr paper was
started. Even now the arguments are greater
than ever before against that barbArous mode
of punishment. Its advocates say II keeps away
from our State thieves, murderers, and
all others who are disposed to break
laws, and yet we also read that 1.-THE Jail
never was so full" Of candidates for its
stripes, ~ now. Then too, they say, that
criminal once punished thus, never will be again
but did We not read, within day or two, Of
young man who had been whipped thrice and
WAs condemned to the same penalty again
Do, Mr.. Editor take up these things, bring
them face to face with the psople, and tight
for freadonA from the thraldom OF this
remnant OF barbarism, as you have often
done before. Don't give up, because you
feel alone in this matter. More than one agrees
with you, and would be glad to assist you in any
endeavors to get rid OF this terrible mode of
punishment. Rest assured that these lines have
not been penned in sarcasm, as were those re-
oeived snort time since, but in sober earnest by
one who desires to see justice meted out though
not in manner TO give the imp 'eason that We
are heathen.
Zone who Admires your past defence OF right
but who has been fearful you we're going to re-
tract.) A. X. ..
TO this friendly letter, We may say, with en-
tire cAndor and sincerity, that We have, at no
time, had the slightest disposition to modify our
oft-expressed views upon the proprioty OF using
the whip, as punishment for crime. We hold
IL to be degrading, Intellectual, and tending to
defeat the chief object Of unishment-reformA-
tion. # is encouraging to find such eArnestness
among our peopls as that expressed above, and
We are led to conclude, after some observation,
that there is q much stronger opposition to the
whipping than we have at times thought there
was. Those who see it the wArdens of the jail
the hdbitues OF the Sheriffs ofice. the officers Of
the law, themselves compr ehend the meannesi
and brutality of the lash system, and have nc
words Of praise for it. Humanity and intelli
gence are certain to triumph, and when they 90
the whipping-pest and pillory will be cut down
n Delaware, as they have been in other civilized
communities

Joseph Arch seems to be accepted ~ the nov
elists as one Of the heroic figures Of the times, fit
to take his place in romance, by virtue OF his
earnestness and the great work Of reform he is
inaugurating. In Little Hodge," we have his
full length portrait drawn by tho vigorous pen of
the author Of "Gin1's Baby" and now. in Miss
ThackerAy's charming story OF Jack and the
Bean-Stalk," in the current number OF the Corn
hill Magazine, the rural reformer appears again
In slight but delicate and sympathetic portrait
thus: This was mddle-aged. strong-set man
with powerful, honest face and powerful
honest voice. He spoke with slight country
accent which was not disagreeable; on the con-
trary, it seemed to give point and character to
his sentences, which came slowly and thought
fully, rolling true to their mark. It seemed to
some Of those who listened that it was not one
man speaking it was the voice of whole gem
GRAFTON of men and women who we're telling the
manner Of their daily life, Of their daily wants -
1t is great mission to thus speak for whole
people-to be a voice for the dumb and every
one Beems to recognize that true prophet has
arisen in England in Joseph Arch.
Prints and photographs of the celebrated mask
the country. Pages lectures upon the cast
seem to have settled the impression in most
minds that here is the genuine, the only fully
genuine likeness Of the great Poet, who, in
spite of the open and public life he led among
men, still remains such a mystery to us. That
1t is . genuine cast Of dead face there can be
no doubt and it is equally evident that the
form Of the face and forehead denote man of
extraordinary intellect and ideality. One of the
puzzing pointe, however, is the scar on the
forehead, which Is so noticeable that it would be
likely to be remarked by some Of his cotempo-
raries who wrote of him. Page quotes passages
from the sonnets, which he claims as reference
to this scar but he might as well suppose that
the line,
"speak of my lamenesB, ard l straight will halt"
Ia good evidence that Shakespeare was a Grip
pie Scar and all, however, we are disposed to
Accert this long disputed mask as genuine.

The F0rty-Second Congress.

With single mercenary exception, the rec
ord of the outgoing Congress is fair one.
To it will belong the honor of practically
abolishing the most burdensome of all taxa
tion, that of the internal revenue, so far as it
bears heavily upon the industry of the coun-
try and of reducing the tariff several millions.
This was work that could not be accom-
plished IN an hour, since hundreds of conflict
ing interests rendered the adjustment of both
the internal and import taxes perplexing
and almost hopeless task. 1t is to the credit
of the House that it has resisted successfully
the scores of land jobs and useless subsidies
that have been brought before it. Of the
former list every one has been defeated and
probably for the last time. Its measure to
stimulate ship building was timely and al
though not what the frierds of that interest
could wish, it has already prac .ically demon
straied the wisdom of Congress in adopting it.
Beyond the abolition of the frankng priv
ilege, the last session has accomplished little
of general legislation. The House, however,
oy its prompt action in securing a thorough
investigation into the corruptions of the Pa
CHIC railroad and the Credit Mobilier has
oohe the country more service than it could
ps any possible legislation, for it has most
cef1aln,s cnecked the tendency of Congress
10 grant subsidies or make the country anv
iurtner party IN railroad or other ontor-
prises, however important
1t is to the credit OF the Hon..
scr,ltinized its aDnronrio+; -, 'naI III mas
sual ere and IN most cases made reduction
that compares favorably with those Nreloh Of ,oN
before. ''

Avert the Danger.

The "ethereal midness" with which poets credit
the vernal season is more an illusion of the fancy
than meteorological fact Early spring in temper
rate climates is fearful time and the tears are us
uaily too cool tor health or comfort To avert the
complaints to which the fogs and winds of the season
are apt to give rise, prudent people who believe in
the proverb that prevention is better than cure"
fortfy their stomachs and brace up their nerves and
muscles with HOsetters Stomach Bitters. Those who
DO this are wise and are rewarded for their wisdom
by escaping the visitation Of chlls and fever rheu
matism biliousness, fatuleney constipation, stom-
ach complaint, &c., SO common in damp in hospiea-
BILE weather. 10 the less prudent, who neglect this
precaution and suffer for it, would say, that the
disorders which this potent vegetable tonic prevents
it also cures.
