PUNISHMENT IN THE PENlTEN
TIARY.

The article published elsewhere in
this paper from DR.. Darlington, a
former surgeon of the Virginia peni-
tertiary presents to people of this day
a gruesome picture, and rccites dis
gushing and shocking details of cruel
ty. "IIunnish," all of them. We do
not quite understand, from this ar
ticle of DR.. Carrington's just what
modes of punishment are in vogue in
the penitentiary now. How many, if
any, of the barbarous, uncivilizcd me
thods of the past are still practiced
is what the public would like to know.
So far, we have seen no detailed re-
port of the recent investigation or
dercd. Presumably, the whipping post
is still retained, and may be neccs-
sary and is no doubt effective in many
cases of characterization.
Parents sometime find the "rod"
necessary, but, that Il man should be
stripped, held across Il barrel by four
brutal men, and dashed by still
more brutal bully, with heavy lea
ther thong, and Il woman tied and
dashed over bare shoulders is horri-
flying, disgraceful, degrading and
heathenish. And the men responsible
for such practices should be displaced
as soon us possible by Il class of hui
man beings.
