The WHIPPING-PoST IN DELAwARE.-Two
lads, Masters John Mullen, aged IS, and David
Clark, aged II, sentenced for robbng marke.
man of his money box as he drove through the
street, were whipped in New Castle, Del,
Saturday. The market man, Mr.. lilly, en-
gagged one, Andy Ryan, man of mature age,
and this Ry an melted the boys to rob his en-
ployer, and even assisted them. AT the trial
Ryan turned States evidence and escaped,
while the boys were sentenced to six mouths
imprisonment, ten lashes apiece, and compelled
to make a restitution of $3.50 each, they hay
ing stolen $37. Promptly at 2 o'clock tue
courtyard gate was thrown open and the
crowd admitted while at the same time the
sheriff hurried into the warden's room and,
grasping the "cat-o' -nine-tails,'' walked into
the yard and took his seat beside the whipping
post. Less than two minutes afterward, John
Mullen, barred to the waist, and with a coat
thrown over hislshoulders, walked into the yard
accompanied by the warden, and for a mo-
ment stood with downcast eyes, hestating
what to do. A nod from the sheriff decided
him, and throwing off his coat he walked boldly
to the post 1t was horrid sight; the crowded
courtyard, still as death ITSELF the bare skin of
the boy glistening in the sun, as he placed his
hands in the iron bands while the warden
pinned them in, and the sheriff, whip in hand,
stood near, ready to infict the cruel blows. But
at the first blow the folly and, indeed, the crl-
city of the custom became painfully apparent,
for the sheriff merely lifted the whip and the
thongs fell on the boys back as lightly as if in
play, scarcely reddening the flesh. As each
blow fell the warden called out zone" "two,'
and so on until, having counted ten, the boys
wrists were released, and picking up his coat,
he ran back to the prison, and the other enter
ed the yard and was as mildly dealt with.
