THIBODAUX, SATURDAY, JANUARY 81 1885,
Ancient English Laws,

A/80AA<SeA
The following are few of the laws
Of England nearly twelve hundred years
ago:
II any servant, by command OF the
master, shall do any servile work after
the sun shall be set on Saturday, or on
Sunday, the master shall pay so shil
lings for the task. If servant shall
travel on either of those days, he shall
pay shillings, Or be whipped. If a
freeman shall travel on day forbid
den, he shall stand in the pillory, and
the informer shall have half, as well of
the mulct as Of the virgil.
Ii husbandman, without the knowl-
edge of his wife, shall offer anything to
the devil, he shall forfeit his estate and
stand in the pillory; but if both Of
them shall offend. she also shall lose
all her goods, and stand III the pillory.
If a servant shall offer anything to the
devil, he shall lose 6 shillikgs. or be
whipped. i
Ii any person shall give flesh to his
servant to be eaten on fast day. his
servant shall be free. If any servant
shall voluntarily eat it, he shall either
pay sllillings or he whipped.
If secular man shall kill q thief, no
composition shall be made BY the kins-
man of him that is slain. II any free
man carry away anything that is
stolen, the King shall choose any one
Of these three punishments: Either
that the thief shall be slain or banlshed
beyond the seas, or rather his virgil
(which was the value of his head OF
life), and he who apprehended him
shall have half his goods; but if he
shall kill him, he shall pay 20 shillings.
If any servant shall be robbed, and
shall suffer the thief to escape, he shall
pay 70 shillings, Or, which the King
pleases; but if any one shall slay him,
his master shall have half his goods.
If any stranger shall wander privily
through the country, and shall neither
cry aloud nor sound his horn, he shall
be taken for thief, and shall either bt
slain or banished.

The War Of 1872.

The verdict of posterity upon the
var Of 1912 may be said to be this:
That there was ample ground for it,
and that it completed the work of the
revolution; and yet that it was tho inn
mediate product of y few ambitious
men, whose aims and principles were
not really SO high as were those OF
many who opposed the war. The out
rageous impressment of American sea-
men touched a point of national pride,
and Justly; while the United States
submitted to this it certainly could not
be called an independent nation: and
the abuse was practically ended by the
war, even though the treaty of peace
was silent. On the other side, the
dread entertained of Napoleon by the
Federalists was perfectly legitimate {;
and this, too, time has confirmed. But
this peril was really far less pressing
than the other: the United States
needed more to be liberated from the
domineering attitude of England than
from the remoter tyranny of Napoleon,
and it was therefore necessary to reckon
with England first. As a matter OF
fact, the Federalists did their duty in
action; the Commonwealth of Massa-
chusetts furnished during those three
wears more soldiers than any other and
the New England States, which opposed
the war, sent more men into the field
than the Southern States, which
brought on the contest. Unfortunately
the world remembers words better
than actions-litera scripta naanet-
and the few questionable phrases Of tht
Hartford Convention are now better re
membered than the IA, 900 men which
Massachusetts raised in 1914, or tn,
$4,000, 900 she paid for bounties.-T "

Ben Buffers Nerve.

Bean-eating Massachusetts never
fights dueis, and Buffers nerve has had
to be expended in other ways. A nota-
ble instance OF this occurred in 1856,
when Ben Butler was q young practi.
toner at Lowell. The Buchanan cam.
paign was in full progress and q great
meeting was being held in the largest
hall in the city. Rufus Choate, the
great lawyer, was addressing the
meeting, and his eloquence had thrown
them into the widest enthusiasm, when
jar was felt and q crash was heard.
The cry went forth, THE floor is sink
ing. Every one turned pale and the
audience arose for o stampede, when
Ben Butler came to the front of the
platform beside Mr.. Choate, and call
ing the audience to halt, said there
was no danger, that the architect of the
building was present, and that he
would 60 with him and examine the
building, and report, to allay their
fears. This quieted the audience.
Butler and the architect made an i'm
mediate examination Of the hall, and
found the danger very great. Butler
at once returned, and smilingly assured
the audience there was no danger, but
as the hall was overcrowded, he advised
them to quietly adjourn to the Public
Square, and there Mr.. Choate would
finish his speech. The crowd went
quietly out, and the catastrophe was
averted. As Butler stepped on the
platform he had whispered to Mr..
Choate with a half laugh, in order to
deceive the audience. This is what he
said: "Mr. Choate, I must clear this
house or we shall all be in hell IN fivt
minutes. > Washington Letter.

A WHACK AT PRIMARY ARITH-
METIC.

Have you examined the primary and
oral arithmetics recently issued? In
looking through them very carefully, did
it occur to you that most authors had
written as if afraid the children would
have something to do?
Before me, as write, is real pretty
book. The author puts three years of
regulation between the covers, and pupils
are expected to devote that time to it.
With all due respect to the author who
wrote it, and the care with which it is ar
ranged, do not hesitate to say, that a
child of ordinary ability, six or seven
years old, can do the work in this book
in one year. and not neglect any other
school work.
To get at this matter little nearer
home, [ ask you, reader, How long did it
take you in school to learn to count from
10 to 100, and from 100 to 1000? Did
that stupendous effort leave any deep i'm
preston upon your memory? How long
did it take you to find out the difference
between the spoken word 'ten," the
printed or written word "ten," and the
"1O"?
Did it take one year for you to learn
how to write 1, =, 3, 1, 5, 6, Z, s, 8, 10,
and then to work with these characters?
Does your memory still serve you?
Please think as you go along! Are oar
little children little toois!' 1t would seem
80, when you supply them with such thin
diet as the article now under fire. Chill
dren are not numbskulls, even though it
might be very difficult matter for some
other persons to establish the contrary
proposition before court of inquiry,
The tendency in teaching primary
arithmetic in most graded schools, is to
keep beginners fumbling with shoe pegs,
short sticks, thumbs, pebbles, and other
gimcracks, when these crutches should
be cast aside. When the child can run
about, why make him kneel and crawl?
Should your school board, superinten-
dent, principal, or fellow teacher, main
tain that little children must 90 to school
three for our years before learning how
to add, subtract, multiply, or divide
fractional numbers, step quietly into
school room and 60 to questioning the
little fellows, and argue the proposition
afterward. There is no success ike sue
cess. It's the most convincing argu-
ment in the world-.Sapt. j. H. Greea-
