cessors either in the navy or the merchant
service. The story of the disappearance Of
one such cruelty from the United States
navy at the command Of Abraham Lincoln
is worth telling.
On one of Mr.. Lincoln's excursions to
Fortress Monroe, on the Steamer Hartford,
in 1868 his attention was directed to
narrow door, bound with iron, the use Of
which he was anxious to learn.
"What is this2" he asked.
"Oh that is the sweat-box, was the
replv. "It is used for refractory and in
subordinate seamen. man in there is
subjected to steam heat, and has very little
ventilation 1t generally brings him to
terms very quickly"
President Iincoln's curiosity was aroused
"This. he said to himself, 'is treatment to
which thousands of American seamen are
probably subjected every year. Let me try
it for myself and see what IL really IS"
Taking of his hat-for he was several
inches over six feet in height-he entered
the enclosure, which he found to be little
more than three feet in length or width
He gave orders that at a signal from him
self the door should be Immediately opened
It was then closed and the steam turned on.
He had been inside hardly three minutes
before the signal was given, President
Lincoln had experienced enough of what
was then regarded as necessary punishment
for American seamen. There was very
little ventilation and the short exposure to
the hot aud humid air had almost suffocated
him
Turning to Secretary Wells, of the Navy
Department. ordered that no such enclosure
as the sweat box should ever be allowed on
any vessel flying the American flag.
Ii was not an hour after this order had
been given before every sailor on every
ship in Hampton Roads had heard Of it.
The effect was most remarkable on the
older sailors, many of whom had them
selves experienced the the punishment of
the sweat.box Some of them wept from
JOY.
But the good results of this act of Presi-
dent Lincoln we're not confined to the
American navy Great Britain, France,
Germany and other European countries
heard that the sweat-box had been abol-
ished in America as inhuman. One and all
of these nations in turn fell into line, and
to-day the sweat-box is not 10 be found on
any vessel flying the flag of civilized
nation throughout the world.

The hardships endured BY sailors even
now are sufficient, we're they more generally
known, to deter adventurous boys from
running away to sea. The isolation of
vessel at sea, and the responsibility Of the
captain for the safety of all on board, of
course make it necessary that passengers
and crew shall be entirely subject to his
commands. Despotism is unavoidable. and
where authority is so absolute il is natural
that abuses should exist. But the hard
ships and crueities to which the modern
sailor is subjected are as nothing 10 those
