WhinnAd and Cleared.

In the early days of Missouri, a man
was tried and convicted for stealing Il
horse. The court sentenced him to re-
ceive thirty-nine lashes on his bare back
An acquaintance, meeting him shortly
after he had been punished and dis
charged, asked him how he came out OF
it.
"Oh, first rate was the prompt re-
ply; whipped and cleared"
A thief in a California miners camp
once had similar experience In the
early days of mining every one was too
we'll off to steal, and the miners kept
their sacks of gold dust in their tents
But as gold became more difficult to find,
lazy fellows began to think it easier to
steal than to dig. One day a well
dressed fellow stole some gold from
miner and mounted on a swift horse,
fled from the camp He was followed,
arrested, and tried before a magistrate
appointed by the miners, aud promptly
convicted. The grim humOr of min
ing community shone in the sentence:
"The court thinks said the magis-
trate, "that you should at once restore
the stolen gold to its owner
The thief, thinking that he was about
to be let off easily, handed tower. Then
the court pleasantly suggested that it
would be right for the thief to pay the
costs of the trial. He made no objec-
ton to this Judgment and promptly
handed out two ounces-thirty-two dol
lars of gold dust, the amount of the
costs
Now" said the magistrate, with the
utmost blandness, there is another part
Of the sentence of this court, which has
not yet been mentioned; and that is that
you receive thirty-nine lashes on your
bare back, well laid on

What a Gentleman Is,

The essential characteristics Of .
gentleman says Mr. Mathews, "are
not an outward yarnish or veneer, but
inward qualities, developed in the
heart"
The drover was n gentleman at heart,
and in speech also, OF whom this anec-
dote is told. He was driving cattle to
market one day when the snow was
deep, save on the highway. The drove
compelled lady to turn out Of the road
and tread in the deep snow,
Madam said the drover, taking off
his hat, "if the cattle knew as well as
what they should do, you would not
walk in the snow
Charles Lamb tells story of JOSEPH
Price, a London merchant who rever-
enced womanhood in every form in
which it came before him.

contains the following horrible dis
closures:
your Excellency is quite aware III
what fashion many Commissarles OF

confessions from prisoners. Your En-
cellency knows perfectly well that only
recently the Commissary OF a certain
district was accused, while intcrrogating
a youth Of eighteen the only child OF
his widowed mother, of hanging him by
his feet, in which position he died. The
Commissary of another district. while
examining woman whose innocence
was afterward established, had her
hands tied, and then caused her to be
held over a fire. Your EXcellency is
further aware that, notwithstanding our
severe laws and the vigilance of the
Government, the secret intewogatory OF
prisoners is largely conducted by means
of torture and corporal ilI-treatment,
and that this is practiccd chiefly by the
Commissarics OF Police, who, as a rule,
escape detection and punishment"
