A Harsh School Law

"A little Hebrew girl who was in the habit OF
observing Saturday as a holy day according TO the
custom of her faith was recently sentenced to three
months Imprisonment IL Boston reformatory be
cause she would not 60 TO school on Saturday
morning (the Boston SCHOOLS are in operation on
Saturday.
Here we have very significant example
Of the manner in which one religious
creed may jar upon another. To the
Jewish girl Saturday is the Sabbath or
dained by the Almighty-the only Sabbath,
by the way, for which any express sane
ton can be found in scripture. TO the
Christian school board who procured her
punishment, and the Christian court which
inflicted it, Saturday is simply week day,
without any sanctity whatever. In the
estimation of board and court, Judaism is
a species of infdelity which may be tolerat-
ed to a certain extent, but not encouraged.
In the estimation of the Jewish girl and
her people, Christianity is a mere com
pound of absurdities and blasphemy.
But without entering into the merits Of
the case any farther, we may say that such
a punishment for such an offence is an in.
tOlerable outrage upon nineteenth century
civilization. and the sooner Massachusetts
repeats the law by which such outrage:
can be ptrpetrated, the better for her re
imitation

The Aledo Malpractice Case,

The malpractice case now being tried
before the circuit court, at Aledo--J Judge
Peasants on the bench-is one of more
than ordinary Importance, especially to
the medical fraternity, and inasmuch as
no succint history of the case has ever yet
peen published in the newspapers, a brief
recapitulation of the leading points in
volved in this protracted legislation may
not be uninteresting,
In the month of October, 1866, Frank
Smith, the plaintiff, then s years old,
while returning home from school, fell
from a wagon and received very serious
injury. DR.. George Irwin, of Aledo, was
called as physician, and in his treatment
of the injury he operated for dislocation
Of the knee bones, treating the ankle,
which was very much swollen, with a
copious application of cold water. In the
course of six years the constant use OF
the injured limb developed what is COM
monty termed a club foot, but, for several
years after, Dr. Irwin remained the family
physician and no word Of complaint in re-
gard to malpractice. Finally suit was
brought against DR., Irwin for malpractice,
near two years ago, with a strong proba-
biity of its continuance for several years
to come. The case attracted great atten.
ton, and occupied the entire term o.
court one year, with the result Of a disa
greement by the jury Nearly al of The
leading physicians of Mercer and adjoining
counties were summoned as experts, and
as doctors always do, they disagreed very
much in making out lucid diagnosis fo
the comprehension of the jury. The pres
ent condition of the foot is technically ex
pressed for the benefit of the profession
as follows:
Dislocation Of head of astragalus, oil
ankle bone, from the scaphOid bone, tn
former being thrown out or slightly twist
ed out and upward; somewhat twisting /
on the calcauium or heel bone, and tn
same of its upper surface, or articulatini
with the tibia or bone Of the leg. Tn
former, or scaphoid, is turned around tn
inner anterior edge of the articulation
surface of the astragalus, giving the an
terror part of the foot a pitch downwar
and inward so that he walks on the articl
lation of the little toe with the metotorsa
bone completely locking the foot in tia
position. The heel also is turned inwar
but not more than may be due to the &C
Missile movements Of the articulation c
the astragalus with that bone. The foe
is contracted and doubled upon itself b
contraction or want of development Of tn
Il. uscles of the bottom of the foot, and pos
terror part of the leg. This is claimed to b
due to partial paralysis of the nerve SUP
plying the muscles of the outer and ante
rior part Of the leg and foot, thus yelldin
- the natural tractive force of the antag
nizing muscles, above alluded to, wit
nine years of time, and neglect of means
prevent any use of the foot favorlng tn
distorted tendency.
It is hoped that the caseiwill be conclu
ed by Monday, in order that Judge Plea
ants may open court here on Tuesday.

Gov, Tilden..s Message,

From the ". T. Tribune.
The message of Gov, Tilden is bust
ness-like document, wasting no words on
fictitious issues and incumbering its state
ments, arguments. and suggestions with
no ill.timed rhetoric. 1t is strongly
marked by the governors we'll known
shrcwdness and sagacity, yet it is probably
not exactly what the politicians expected
of him, He does not dwell at length
upon the canal reform or the saving
that has been effected in the public cx-
penditures. although on beth subjects he
says all that was needful. He gives the
proper information upon the various
branches of the state administration :;
makes a number of suggestions, some Of
them very valuable; and then proceeds to
discuss at length the vital subjects that be-
long to our tuture-economy and financial
reform. This part of his message touches
the politics of the union; and it is the
most practical and useful part of the
whole paper,
We pass over his striking and sensible
remarks on the policy OF building palaces
for the insane and criminals; his illusions
to the national guard; his amusing and
wholly unexpected disclosure respecting
the Gray Nuns act; his recommendation
as to savings banks and insurance compan-
les; and we come to the portion of his
message which will be most widely read
and most earnestly discussed, He surveys
first the prevalent depression in business,
and he finds its cause not only in over
speculation and over trading, but primarily
in the waste Of national capital by exces-
sive governmental consumption. During
the war the aggregate worth of the coun.
try was impaired to the extent of proba-
''bly two thousand millions of dollars by q
governmental consumption exceeding the
whole net income of the people, to say
nothing of the destruction Of property
industries, and productive capacities, in
''cident to military operations" The frs
duty OF peace was to replace the wasted
capital. The first means to that end was
prompt reduction of the governmental
rs.loaitnre. But here, eleven years after
