friend present remarked

they were packed and sent back to

Alexandria gazette. [volume] (Alexandria, D.C.) 1834-1974, 1894-02-05

SOME of the older magistrates ofGreat
Britain have petitioned the home secre-
tary of the government thereof for the
substitution of fogging for imprison-
ment as the punishment for youthful
criminals. These magistrates are wise
men, and their petition was inspired
not only by their own personal expert
ence, but by that of other wise men in
all previous ages. Modern sentiment
tality is ridiculously absurd in view OF
the history of the experience of the
whole world. And it is no less true
that he who spares the rod spoils the
child, than that the law which substi-
stutes confinement in comfortable quar-
tiers, idleness aud three square meals a
dav for the whipping post, will increase,
rather than decrease the number OF
criminals.
