Tom Corwin undertook, when a
member of the Ohio Legislature, to
have law enacted abolishing public
whipping for crime. He spoke at
some length in support of his meas
ure, and an elderly gentleman, who
represented rural district, answered
as follows: "Mr. Speaker; the gen.
tleman is not as old as | am, and has
not seen as much of the practical OPP
Grafton of the system of punishment
which he desires to abolish. When |
lived in Connecticut, if fellow stole
a horse or cut up other antics, we us
ed to tie him up and give him real
good thrashing, and he always clear
ed right out, and we never saw any
thing more of him. It's the best way
of getting rid of the rogues that ever
was tried, and without expense to the
State" Corwin rose to reply: "Mr.
Speaker, | have often been puzzled
TO account for the vast immigration
from Connecticut to the west, but the
gentleman last up has explained it to
my satisfaction. Ben Perley Poore
