whipping Post in Massachusetts.


Boston Transcript.
The whipping post in Massa
chusetts is the next reform. The
house Of representatives yesterday
afternoon voted by a large major
| ity to substitute the following bill
in lieu of a report inexpedient &c
provide a punishment for wife
beating by hogging:
SEcRIoN I. Whoever, not be-
ing armed with a dangerous wea-
pom, 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 punishment to be administer
ed by the keeper Of the house OF
correction or his assistant in the
county in which said act shall
have been committed.
Other states have numerically
ridiculed little Delaware for cling
ing to its whipping post, but it is
found to be there an effective pun
ishment for various classes of mis-
deeds. Criminals don't like to
practice their callings in Delaware
nor tarry there any longer than
possible. Some kinds of viola
tions of law cannot be fully met
by existing penalties. A villain
who assaults his wife with force
and violence would hesitate if he
knew his victim was to be aveng-
ed by from ten to thirty lashes on
his bare back, publicly" inflicted.
That is punishment he could
feelingly appreciate. There are
other soffenses for which whipping
would prove a preventive.

Breeding Geese for Feathers.


tits not generally known that this
is an important business in Yves,
Virginia, but such is the fact. In
that State. especially in the west
ern part, the watereourses are
numerous, but not navigable. and
railroads are undeveloped Often
fifty or sixty miles must be ira
vefsed to reach railroad station,
and in such localities breeding
geese for feathers is found to be
very profitable Several pickings
are. made in a season. and the
crop of feathers is duly baled and
sent to market by wagon. which is
usually at some station, where
agents are ready to receive il. We
allude to the feather crop OF West
Virginia in order to state that
geese may be made to prove equal
ly as profitable in other localities
as well. especially at points pos
sessing limited railroad facilities,
as feathers are not heavy enough
to interfere with easy hauling.
even when there are full loads on
the wagons. Geese are partially
self supporting and work on a pas
ture or on a pond They come
up regularly at night. protect their
young vigorously. and subsisf

having no competitors except
ducks, which-they exceed in SIZE.
The carcass of the goose is also
saleable. the only objection to it
being the dark color of the flesh,
but a goose is juicy and not dry
like a turkey.-Farmer.

The s.. Louis Railway Repiste

The St. Louis Railway Registel
presents a picture of the future o.
our country that is worthy our con
sideration, and we hardly think the
picture is overdrawn. The Regis
ter says:
SIN a few years If will be quite
immateral TO the people Of the
United States whether Great Brit
ain buys its wheat of US or pro-
duces it in India, because we have
none to sell. This proposition
perhaps is novel, but all must ad-
NIT it would be much better for
Us as, a nationto consume our food
products than to sell them. -
1t is thought that, so rapidly is
manufacturing increasing in the
Southern States, in a few years
the bulk Of the northwest will be
needed in the southern part of the
country. The Southern people
have now learned that it IS iu6n-
itely better for them to manufac-
ture their cotton and sell the goods
than to dispose Of the raw mater
ialsand buy back what they need.
We may look forword to a time
when the United States shall be-
come the great manufacturing
market of the world, and from the
sale Of our goods we shall receive
gold ofevery other nation on earth.
1t viii then be impossible for US
to spare any of our grain, TOR ii
will be needed at home. Our rail-
ways viii have. ali they can do to
transport this wheat and corn from
one section to another, and to car
ry the merchandise to the sea
board. Our population will be
dense and wealth and prosperity
will reward our citizens for all
their work"
