A Poetic Reconciliation.

Some time ago a man came into a
Baltimore lawyers Office in a state of
great excitement, and asked him to
Commence proceedings for divorce. Mr..
Dobbin heard him through, and then
said, 8" think have something that
will exactly suit your case. Sit still,
and will read it to you."
The man remained seated, all eager,
snpposing he yas tolisten to Blackstone
or Kent, when Mr.. Dobbin began to
read Z" Betsey are out" BY the
time he had ended the mans eyes were
full of tears.
ssI believe I will go home,e he said.

Practical Demonstration of the Cate
chism.

Not long ago bright little girl in the
Sunday-schoOl of st. Luke, Nh,
New Jersey, who was in the Calvary
Catechism class, taught by Miss s.,
and had evidently reached the bottom
facts of the lesson-the creation of man
out of dust of the earth-came running
home to her mother, overfull of conf
dence in the Scripture theory and her
own reflective conclusions, and exclaim-
ed:
"Oh, mother, know 1t is true what
the catechism said about Adams being
made out of the dust Of the earth-I
know it isl'
Whyf"
BecauseI saw Aunt Emma whip

The First Match

At first the watch was about the
size of desert plate. 1t had weights
and was used as a pocket clock. &"
The earliest known use of the modern
name occurs in the record of 1862,
which mentions that Edward vi. had
zone larum or watch if iron, the case
being likewise of iron gilt, with two
plummets of lead The first great
improvements-the substitution Of
springs for weights-was in 1860. The
earliest springs were not coiled, but
only straight pieces of steel. Early
watches had only one hand, and being
wound up twice day they could not
be expected to keep the time nearer
than fifteen or twenty minutes in IL
hours. The dials were of silver and
brass, the cases had no crystals. nut
opened at the back and front, and
were four or five inches in diameter.
A plain watch cost more than 81, 800,
and after one was ordered it took a
year to make it.

The Whipping Post sin


A bill to make public whipping :
punishment for minor oneuses anc
crimes is before the Kentucky Legs
lature.
We trust il may be carefully diges
ted and composed to the best purpose
for the object in view, and passed.
We believe in the rod in the pun
ishment Of gross disobedience in the
family and in the lash in the punish.
meut Of crime against society aud the
Commonwealth.
The cry that whipping IL "a relic
OF barbarism' is silly in the extreme
and should not weigh n feathers
weight in the consideration Of the
problem, how to punish crime.
Crime itself is a relic of barbarism.
Probably no ancient State ever had
more Of il than Kentucky has to-day.
in proportion to territory, age, aud
population.
The first object of public punish.
ment is the defense OF the society.
This is the most important object.
That punishment which evil disposed
persons and evil doors most dread is
the punishment to be prescribed. Ex.
perience has demonstrated, and pres
ent inquiry among the lower classes
will show that public whipping is far
more dreaded than imprisonment in
warehouses, jails and peniteutiaries
This consideration should settle the
question in favor of the whipping
post.
But there is one thing "a whipping
post bill should not do. 1t should
not be partial. The remedy should
be made to apply to all grades of
crime, from the smallest punishable
misdemeanor up to the grossest felo-
ny; from stealing chicken to high
way robbery; from intent to kill To
murder. Iu short, the big rAseals as
well as the little rascals should be
publicly whipped as part of their
punishment.- Lou. Democrat.

1t is a pity that the sovereignty
bill could not have made better
showing in the Legislature than it did
1t is wise measure, and affords the
only plan by which an Anticipated
Constitution can ever be reached.
The mawkish sentimentalism which
prevents wise men from favoring this
means of amending that venerable
document is species of monkeying
with the interests of new aud better
civilization which smacks too much OF
the age Of the tow.linen shirt and the
oue-gallows trousers. - Richmond
