Floggine a Dead woman.

From the London Standard
A curious story, showing the.way in which
the bodies of suicides are treated in China,
appears in the native paper Shen Pao. A
woman about thirty years of age, who found
that her good looks were rapidly disappear
ing, threw herself off bridge in Pekin, and
was drowned. Next morning the officials
ordered the corpse to be carried on to the
bridge from which the deceased had thrown
herself, and forty blows with a whip were
administered to it by the soldiers. To pun
ish body after death seems alike horrible
and opposed to all common sense. Yet it
was but few years ago that the law in
England ordained that the body of suicide
should be buried at the cross road and
stake driven through it. Indeed, in many
countries the fear of mutilation after death
is often greater than that of death itself. In
all our little wars, it is looked upon as a
point of honor with our troops that none of
our dead should fall into the hands of our
enemy, while most savage peoples are ready
to make desperate efforts to carry off their
dead. The Arabs OF the Soudan, the abo-
rhymes of America, the Kaffir tribes of South
Africa, are animated alike by this spirit; and
senseiess and revolving as the Chinese fog
ging dead woman may appear, there can
be little doubt that it has a strongly deter
rent effect upon the living, and in that re-
spect stands on precisely the same footing as
capital punishment.
