Eaten by a Horse.

John Coward, a young man, son OF
the Widow Coward, and q member of
the mercantile 6rm Of Worthington &
Coward, wens into the stable where
there was N old family horse which
had been known TO be ,lways as gen
tie as dog but suddenly the beast
was seized with a Ct of viciousness, by
some means or other. aud pitched up
on young Coward Before he could
get away from the ferocious animal he
was almost literally eateb up. The
horse had bitten most all the muscle
aud aesh loose from both arms above
the elbow, had also bitten on the sides,
hips, and other places. DR.. Coward,
uucle ofthe young man, was summon
ed, aud gave all the sergical assistance
aud relief possible; but the wouuda
wore of very dangerous aud serious
nature, and it was feared he could not
survive. \ negro boy went into the
same horse afterwards, and was also
set upon By it and pretty roughly used,
and it was with difficulty he was res
cued. The borse was never known to
be any ways vicious before, and its
conduct could not be explained.
Young Coward wanted it killed, but
nothing was done about il. The horse
seemed finally to get over the spell,
aud wss taken out and worked in the
pillow the same day.-knoxyille Tenn

mississippi River Improve
7anGssf.

The present session of Congress has
done some little good anyway, and that
is in taking some further steps looking
70 the improvement of the great Mis-
sissippi river. The duties of the new
commission ara thus defined By the
bill which creates IL:
It shall be the duty of said Commission
to take into consideration and mature
such plan or plans and Estimates as will
correct, permanently locate and deepen
the channel and protect the banks of the
Mississippi river; improve and give safe
ty and case 10 the navigation thereof;
prevent destructive foods promote and
facilitate commerce, trade and the postal
service; and, when so prepared and ma
tured, TO submit to the Secretary of War
full and detailed report of their pro-
ceedings and actions, and of such plans,
with Estimates of the cost thereof, for the
purpose aforesaid TO be by him transmit
ted to Congress: PrOoiica That the Com
mission shall report in full upon tho prac-
ticability, feasibility and probable cost of
the various plans known az the jetty sys-
ten, the leyee system and the outlet sys
tenn, as we'll az upon such others as thoy
deem necessary.
We have little doubt but that this
Commission will be able TO make re
port by the next session which meets
next December, and that then will fol-
low the necessary appropriations to
execute the plan they recommend.
The best opinion now is that they will
adopt the plan Of STRENGTHENING the

A SUGaEsTtoS-Eo WHIPPING PosT.
The candidates for the Legislature,
By general consent and popular favor.
have taken position in favor of restor
iug .he shipping post Cor petty lsrce-
o. ohenses. The grievance cut Of
WHICH this idea was born is the cost on
the people incident to supporting and
maintaining petty larceny couvicls
in tbs county jail. a popular ;dea ia
now growing up in favor of hiring
such offenders out, TO labor gu farms,
sc. &c, for the term they are now sen
fenced to the county Jail. The county
Judge has some such discretion or au-
thori,y now, but to secure the ef1ieien-
oy contemplated, the present law needs
amendments in several particulars.
For instance, the objection that a
farmer or other citizen pow has to hir
ing such prisoner ia the risk or dan
ger of the prisoner making his escape,
and the consequent loss of service.
Hence, 90 ono will now bid anything
when such prisoners are offered for
hire. Therefore, any amendments
which would tend to make the hirer
safe 10 hiring such labor would in
crease the praotioability of such Law
The first suggestion is that the pres
ent law be so changed as to mako the
bidder responsible only for tho time
he is able to keep such labor.
I'd. Give similar powers as keepers
in tho penitontiary.
3rd. IF prisoner escapes, have the
law to double his service, if recaptured
4th Mako it the peremptory duty OF
State officers to Immediately issue war
rant for his recspture; aud TO insure
prompt efficiency in officers in making
arrests; provide for the prompt pay
ment OF their fees
9Th Change petty larceny from
under $40 10 under $50, and cause
each prisoner convicted to serve a suf~
6Oient length OF time, after paying the
costs Of the State, to pay back the
value of amount stolen TO party from
whom i; was stolen.
1t Is believed that the petty larceny
laws can be so perfected after this man
Ter as to N axe this class Of offenders
pay revenue to the county over and
above the expense Of their keeping;
aud also to restore to Injured parties
amounts stolen from them. The
ready objection would be that such
convicis would readily aud continual
ly make their escape from punishment;
but in instances where this should be
t.uo, the amendments 20 secure recap
turo and the doubling Of servics when
recs ptured, would tend at least 10 rid
the community of the presence Of
such characters, What more could the /
Whipping Post do7 Would it do as
much? The lash would drive the petty
thief who had sopie particle of pride
IN his character cut OF the community. I
but the thief totally Destitute of any
sense Of pride, the hardened wretch, |

p!orable class, unmindful of the lash /
except its immediate sting, would still

after the officer had whipped him, pay

the party from whom he had stolen.
All are agreedsthat the present mode
Of Furnishing petty larceny should be
changed, but whether the simple SUBJ
sti;ution of the whipping post, or some
amendment after the above idea, is the
best, il 40 open question.
