WIFE-BEATING IN MAsSACHU-
SETS.

The Lower House of the Massachu-
sets Legislature has passed a bill to
punish wife.beaters, which reads as fol.
lows:
Section l. Whoever, not being armed
with q dangerous weapon, assaults his
wife with force and violence, shall be
publicly whipped with any number OF
lashes not less than ten nor more than
thirty upon the bare back; said pun
ishment to be administered by the
keeper of the House of Correction or
his assistant in the county in which
said act shall have been committed.
The debate was unusually serious and
bright. The ~introducer Ia young Bos-
ton member) said that he believed that
brutes who beat their wives should
have q chance to know how it feels.
Another Boston member was glad to
see the bill put in. Under the present
law, if the ~wife-beater pays a fine or
is imprisoned, the family loses either
the money or his time, which it can
ill afford. The whipping post has been
retained in Delaware, and works well.
A man who has been whipped once
never comes again. Our fathers had
the institution, and we have not always
made improvements in departing from
their customs. Another member liked
the idea Of whipping wife-beaters, but
would prefer to have the operation
performed by machinery, so that no
would have it to do. A member
from almost under the shadow Of Harvard
College said that the policy Of the State
in letting wife-beaters off SO easily was.a
disgrace to the Commonwealth. A
venerable country member alone dissented,
that it was reviving a barbarism.
Not one of the debaters seemed to see the
defect in the bill, whereby . man need

A worldly father, after the style of Lord
Chesterfield, is giving good advice to his
son, who is about to enter society:
"And, above all, avoid fiirtatiens. But
if you must fiirt or fall in love, sir, be sure
that it is with q pretty woman. 1t is
always safer"
"Why?"
because some other fellow will be sure
to be attracted and cut you out before any

Another Ex-Convict Turns Against His
Party and Threatens Dire Things.
WASHINGTON, d. c., March General
John Mcdonald, who is here in opposition
to the promotion of Major Orville L. Bah.
cock to a Lieutenant-C olonelcy, says he
hasno yindictive feelings toward "Syph,"
but feels it his duty to the public
and to his own record for con-
sistency not to allow the promo
ton to be made without some
effort to prevent it. He has filed with
the Senate Military Committee protest
against the promotion, based on the
ground that Babcock not only had guilty
knowledge of the famous whsky-ring
frauds, which was all that Mcdonald
was convicted of, but that Babcock was
beneficiary of the frauds. Having
filed this protest General Mcdonald
says he shall do nothing more unless the
committee invite him. He is ready to
prove his charges, and Is anxious to have
the committee give him chance to do
so, but has not much expectation that
they will. When Babcock was tried, Nc
Donald was his friend, but now that
Grant and his private secretary have
turned him the cold shoulder in spite
Of his serving year and a half In
the Penitentiary, as he claims, to save
them, he is anxious to tell all he knows,
and produce letters that have never yet
been made public. If Babcock is con-
tirmed, General Mcdonald says he will
take the stump next summer in opposi-
ton to the Republican ticket, and will un-
bosom himself not only as to distinguished
persons who have already figured in con-
nection with the whisky ring, but as to
prominent Republicans who were involved
but whose names have never been men
toned in connection with the matter.
General Mcdonald says that he sees a
movement to make Grant the Republican
nominee for the Presidency already or
ganized, and number Of Grants
old cronies have been at the Airing
ton, where he is stopping, within the past
few days. Among these are Clint Wheel
er, of New York Davis, national bank.
er of Tennessee; ex-senator Alexander
Mcdonald, of Arkansas; ex-senator
Spencer, of Alabama, and Judge Whar-
ton, of New York. He believes that men
who are oStensibly pushing Logan's in
terests are really working for Grant,
using Logan's boom as blind or a cats
paw, confident that delegates who are for
Logan can be turned for Grant, while del
egates for some of the other aspirants

LOST in A CAVE.
Fourteen Days Under Lookout Noun
tain Without Food-The Rescue.


CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, April l.-On st.
Patrick's Day two men from Cincinnati,
Chas. Cover and Christ. Schmidtson, en-
tered the cave under Lookout Mountain,
near this city, provided with a glass Ian
tern, a bottle of coal Oil, lunch, etc.
The men had not been seen to come out
of the cave, but the gate-keeper supposed
they did so while he was at dinner.
The beauties of the cavern and
its marvellous curiosities had excited their
ambition to explore it. Jeff Harper,
Emerson and Calvin Leslie, recently from
Indiana, to-day entered the cave on an
exploring expedition. When about three
miles into the cavern they were startled
by deep groans in close proximity to them.
They fastened forward and discovered
the forms of two men lying PROSTATE on
shelf OF rock. The men were unable to
articulate a word, but could only give
vent in sobs to their Joy at rescue. After
being removed TO the outside world, the
men said that they had entered the cave
at nine o'clock on the morning of March
II. They had only a small lantern, not
intending to 90 far into the cave After
they had proceeded about three miles,
Cover stumbled and fell, the lantern fell
from his hand into the water, and the
bottle containing the oil was broken.
They had no other means of making
light. They CROPPED their way back
few hundred feet, but found the
undertaking useless s they were in danger
of falling over unseen precipces. They
could hear the trickling of water and
crawed towards it, and by lowering their
hats by means of strips torn from their
clothing, into the crevice, they obtained
a small supply OF water from time to time.
They remained at this spot about three
days, and driven to desperation by hunger,
made another effort to escape their
terrible doom. About the fifth day they
