Corporal Punishment.

Corporal punishment is being Sc
verely attacked in Boston, in conse-
quence of the death of a little boy
recently, whom very cruel whipping
threw into commissions, which term
mated in brain fever and death. The
child did not regain consciousness
after the whipping, and in his dying
agony implored his parents to save
him from the blows of the rattan
with which the teacher had beaten
him, and which, in imagination, he
felt until death ended his misery
The principle of corporal punishment
in the public schools is wrong.
Doubtless, the child in question was
a very nervous one, with whom some
other slight punishment would have
effected the desired discipline; and
doubtless, also, hundreds of differ
emily organized children might have
endured the same amount of beating
without similar disastrous results;
nevertheless, no good ever yet result
ed from beating and whipping chill
dren. In dispositions where courage
and resentment predominant, all the
dormant passions of anger and
combativeness are strengthened and
aroused by the infiction of blows,
and in the naturally timid and fear
full, severe illness, if not death, is very
apt to be the consequence, 1t is un-
safe to trust any teacher, male or
female, with the instruction of chill
dren, who cannot enforce discipline
without corporal punishment, and

The PoDe and His Folly.

It is reported from Madrid that the
Pope has written letter to Senor
Gorilla on the subject of the relations
between Spain and the Holy See, in
which he says that if Spain desires to
be raeoneiled to the mother church,
the principle of religious liberty must
be modified. Tolerance of public
worship the Church will not object
to, hut the Roman Catholic religion
must be restored to its former supre-
macy in the realm, the superintend-
ence of the schools must lie remitted
to the priesthood, and civil marriages
and the register of births must be
abolished 1t is questionable wheth-
er the Pope and his counselors will
ever awake to the fact, that the world
has advanced century while they
have been sitting still One scarcely
knows whether to laugh or pity the
bigotry of the Pope and bis advisers
in asking as a price of reconciliation
that any nation IN this age shall sur
render its dearest and most vital lib
critics. The world has learned that
the good will of no church viii save,
and that its maledictions viii not
damn. Liberty and the favor Of God
are more valuable to a nation than
the blessings and favors of church.

A Hint to school Directors.

The following from the Ross Coun-
ty Register is applicable to more To-
calities than one; in fact it has a
general application:
'1t is no uncommon thing to see
school house in the country, with
the weather boarding partly torn off,
the glass of the windows nearly or
wholly gone, by the reason of the
tapping OF the wooden shutters,
whose fastenings have been careless
ly allowed to get out of repair; for
doors to stand open, inviting the en-
trance of rude boys and other marau-
ders who disfgure the walls, break
and cut up the furniture, and fences
being left down, and gates open,
hogs root up the ground around the
house during the night, so that when
the time comes for school to begin
there is a heavy expense neeessitated,
which upon deliberation of the board,
is not allowed in many cases, and the
teacher and children are compelled
to undergo many inconvenience,
Just because the director whose duty
it is to look to such things has neg
lected to lay out a half days work in
mending the fastehings of the shut
ters, locking the doors, and putting
the fence in condition to keep out the
hocs."

DIR. Livingstone.

Recent reports concerning the discovery
and safety of this remarkable traveller,
have lately been fully confirmed.
"A dispatch from Zanzibar, Africa, states
that further information has been received
from the interiorregarding the whereabouts
of Dr. Livingstone. The veteran explorer
is stin prosecuting his researches far into
the interior of the country. The long-de-
bated question of the Nile appears to be set
tied at last, the untiring energy and perse-
verane of the great traveller having been
rewarded by the discovery of the true
source of that river.
During his researches DR.. Livingstone has
been fortunate in making numerous discov-
cries of character entirely new to science,
aud has collected an abundance of material,
the publication of which he intends shall take
place in due time, and which must prove OF
the highest interest to the civilized world. .
One of the most remarkable of the Doc.
tors explorations has been the discovery OF
an underground village, whose inhabitants
differ largely in their habits and language
from the other savage tribes of Central

James Gordon Bennett.

James Gordon Bennett, founder
and proprietor of the New York Her
aid, was native of Scotland, CAM e
to America in 1919, and after severe
and protracted struggle with adverse
fortune, in May, 1885, commenced the
Herald, then penny paper, which
under his skillful management stead
lily advanced in prosperity till it be-
came and continues to be the most
profitable journal in America, if not
in the world, it's net income being
estimated at about $500, 900 per year.
At the time of his death the wife,
son and daughter of Mr.. Bennett,
were in Europe, where he was pre-
pairing to join them and spend the
summer. The exception which news
paper publishing presents to any
other business that is followed, was
strikingly illustrated in this case
the great establishment he had spent
his life in building up did not for
a moment cease it's varied operations
because of his death. Any other
business would have been temporar-
lily suspended, but that of the news
paper must go on whatever betide-
even grim death having no power to
stop its regular pulsations or inter
fere with its diurnal visits. The
entire Herald establishment and the
valuable real estate it occupies, worth
perhaps s3,OO0,0OO, was devised to
the son, who is deprived of the pow
er of selling it, the purpose of its
founder being to keep it in the fami-

The FIRE.TENDER. When society
seriously takes hold of the reforma-
ton of criminals, (say with as much
determination as it does to carry an
election) this false leniency viii dis
appear; for it partly springs from a
feeling that punishment is unequal,
and does not discriminate enough in
individuals, and that society itself
has no right to turn a man over to
the devil, simply because he shows a
strong leaning that way. A part of
the scheme of those who work for
the reformation Of criminals, is to
render punishment more certain, and
to let its extent depend upon refor-
nation. There is no reason why
professional criminal, who won't
change his trade for an honest one,
should have intervals of freedom in
his prison life in which he is let loose
to prey upon society. Criminals
ought to be discharged, like insane
patients, when they are cured

Again: How many schools need

as important as the one above. eff
a pupil studies three hours on. a

These are specimens; the others are
of equal Importance,
Now, please tell me in what man

.Mhg we aslraeaae Pse.ec.lo,

Why we Advocafe Protection.
We have sufficient faith in the
practieal common sense Of our readers,
and in their capacity to understand
and appreciate what really concerns
their own Immediate interests, to be-
heEe they will need no explanation
of our reasons for the prominence we
give the question Of Protection to
American industry. But still It may
not be out of place.to say, that it is
because the welfare Of the working
man of this nation is so absolutely
dependent upon and interviewer with
our msnufactnring industry That
great interest, giving direct employ
ment to two millions of operatives,
and direct support to ten millions
Eve hundred Thousand people, was
breathed into life, and is fed and
sustained, by Protection. That poll
cy, has been, and must continue to
be, the very breath of life of our Ia
boring classes. In advocating it we
are influenced far more by our regard
for the laborer than the Manufacture
er. The capitalist can live without
manufacture the workingman can't
live without labor. @ d -
Our doctrine is, direct Protection
to labor, with, 'incidental ProSec-.
ton" to manufactures; that is, we are
for Protection first, because it is
necessity to the laboring man, and
next, because it builds up a system
of industry that creates a.demand for
labor, insures It a legitimate reward,
and helps to elevate it to the high
and dignifed position it deserves as
the creator of all wealth and the basis
of all enterprise. Demagogues only
assert that Protection is invented for
the sole benefit of the rich and to
keep down the poor. Labor would
have been reduced to the ten cent.
standard once advocated by Mr..
Buchanan, which was then its aver
age reward ''throughout the world,
but for that Protective policy which
has SO diversified, and elevated, and
dignifed it in this country; and our
workingmen would have been on the
same low level as those of Spain
Austria, and Ireland. These are oul
reasons for devoting SO much time tc

all motion of the balloon was sus-

The adventures were uncertain what
to do. At first they thought they
would wait until the balloon descend

ropes and drop the boat, letting the
bag escape. The storm, however,
soon increased with such violence
that this was given up as impractic-
able, and it was decided to open the

He was speedily in the storm cloud

awful force, and he could see nothing,
so thick were the clouds. He seized
the valve cord, and attempted to
