The report of the committee appointed to test he efficiency of the electrical ap- piiaLces for execution now in the New York state prisons, states that tests were made upon four frames, each holding 100 ohms of No. Is German silver wire, and the Cardew volt meter measured the electromotive force of the dynamos. At Auburn instantaneous death followed the sending of the current of 1900 volts through horse and calf. h the case of the calf the windpipe was opened and a forced res- piration maintained for half an hour, but without effect, showing that the condition was death and not suspended animation. At Clinton young bull was killed by a current of 900 volts. One thousand will kill horse, while 500 will do for animals weighing no more than 75 pounds. The committee ends by saying it ''entertains no doubts as to the efficacy of the three dynamos at Sing Sing, Auburn and Dan- nemora to accomplish the work for which they are intended"

The legislature of Virginia has done wisely in refusing by decisive vote to es- tablish the whipping post in that state. Now and then we hear of judges who, ex- asperated by the brutality of wife -beaters and the like, express wish that the whip ping post might be set up for the punish ment of such offenders. But, really, this method of punishment has no more place in the civilization of the nineteenth century than the pillory, or the ducking-stool, or any other relic of the semi barbarious ages. It survives nowhere in this country except in Delaware, and it is not particu. larly creditable to that state or edifying to it's people.

It Is announced by Messrs. Charles Scrib- ner's Sons that they have acquired from Mir. Henry M. Stanley all the American rights for his personal narrative of the expedition for the relief of Emin Pasha. Prior to the ap- pearance of the complete work, Scribners Magazine will publish an article upon his last journey by MT. Stanley. It will be il- frustrated and is certain to be as important a contribution as any that has ever appeared in an American Magazine.
 Readers may have noticed that MT. Herbert Ward, who was one of Stanley's officers, makes no mention of the expedition in the article recounting his experiences upon the Congo, which appears in Scribner's for Feb ruary, the fact being that MT. Stanley has re- served the sole right to describe this most re- markable of all his African undertakings.
