A MAGNIFICENT VrHUU'lNti. One was a boy who had bceu to a large preparatory school at Clapham, where "corporal punishment was JiaPEDFed with." This boy, at twelve, was a perfect pest, and by great good lack his parents heard of Miss 's most excellent school, and sent him to It. He very soon began his bad ways. Miss tried at first by gentle measures but with no success and so after many offenses, she orderod him to his room, let him wait by himself for half au hour, and theu entered, holding the birch rod behind her so that he should pot see it. She spoke to him very gravely and loveingly, and then told hiin she was going to birch him, at the same time showing him the rod, and bidding him prepare himself for punishment (as she considered making the boys prepare themselves to be whipped, half the battle.) He ^stoutly refusod, whereupon, after considerable delay, sho left him for a half an hour or more. At the end of that time she again returned, bringing a cane as well as the rod. He still refused to prepare himself, whereupon spite of his struggles, she took off his jacket, and then gave him a sound caning acrosahis shoulders. He soon promised to do as she told him. She 'then laid the cane aside, and when he had taken off his trousers, and had •tacked hi* shirt, at her bidding, under his waistcoat, and laid himself across the little bed with his person bare, she told him she should birch him now for refusing to obey her orders, and that the original punishment would be deferred. She then took-the rod, and, after five or «ix well delivered strokes, the boy after trying "to protect himself with his hands jumpod up.

During his stay at this school (and his parents prolonged it as' much as possible) he had many similar private interview* with the Miss —:—, in which the birch rod bore a prominent part. But his life now bears the fruit of his training then, and it is not possible to find a more exemplary or promising young man, and I have no hesitation in laying that his pi'esent promise is mainly owing to the firm discipline be experienced at fche hands .of the Miss ——. The other case was rather a remarkable one.

Miss (as a rule there is no refusal) does as she is directed, and the matron then buckles a strap, which passing around the culprit's waist, fastens her to the ottoman. She then, without a word, removes the loose dress from below the waist, selects a rod from a stand of rods and slowly administers on Miss 's bare persou the prescribed number of strokes, counting each as she gives it.
WHKN THE WHIl'PIXO. lri OVER, The matron releases her, signs the punishment book, which the birched young lady takes again to the principal's boudoir, who takes the book from her, speaks kindly to her, sometimes kisses her, always shakes her by the hand. She then goes to her own room resumes her own clothes, and, when she is composed enoungh, takes her usual place in the school, and nothing more is said.

NO l'A311l,Y COMPLETE WITHOUT IT. A relative of mine during last au tumn advertised for a school in which to place her daughter, who was both "headstrong and unruly," and she stated in the advertisement, "a school where corporal punishuiont is prudent ly administered." In reply she had letters from very many principals of ladies' schools, of whom twenty-four stated that they were in the habit of using corporal punishment for all graver faults some used it also for school work, and of these seventeen of them specified "the birch rod in the old fiashioned way" as the instrument and mode of punishment. I know several public institutions for girls where the birch rod is used, and several more where it would be used if the managers had their way in the matter. I know one very expensive school for young ladies in Kensington where, for ccrtain offenses, whatever their age, the young ladies are birched as follows:
Having retired and put on a dress for the purpose, at au appointed hour the young lady to be punished knocks at the door of the boudoir of the lady principal, who after serious conversation with her, and sometimes prayer, makes her enter her offense—always a grave one—in a book kept for the purpose,"which she does. The lady principal then rings the bell, and the matron of the establishment, is sent for, to whom the lady principal hands the book in which the young lady has just entered hor offense, and below which the lady priucipal has inserted the punishment. As she hands tho book sho says: "3Irs. will you be good enough to give Miss so many strokes (naming the number) with the birch pointing with her finger to the entry in the book. Tho matron takes the book and retires. Presently a maid servant enters and says, "Mrs. (the matron) is ready for Miss The lady principal saying, "I hope this will not occur again," bows the young lady out, and the said young lady, her heart sinking within her, knocks at the next door, the room where the matron ex-

He was undressed by the Miss (this was thought the most advisable), and then being fastened across a short bench used for the purpose, he received from each of the isacs most severe birchings, a new rod being applied by each, and all the birchings were administered in the presence of his mother. He was then sent to a bed-room prepared for him in the house, where he remained two days. He then went back to his mother's lodgings, and attended the school as a day boy as usual. He re mnined a quarter there, and every time he showed his former evil nature he was birched. At the end of the quarter he was a different boy, his friends were quite amazed at the change in him, he went to Rugby and thence to Trinity College, Cambridge He has been the greatest possible comfort to his widowed mother, aud he is expected to take a very good degree this very January, 1870.
As no boats would be passing that night, Girdeau very wisely saved his strength for a desperate struggle if the time should come, raising no cry of despair to be echoed back unheard by the rain drops and gathering darkness. The water soon chilled him so that his limbs seemed like chunks of ice, and his fingers only retained their holt of the edges of the boat because they seemed frozen there, and could not unclasp. The hours went by, the .float ing man growing colder and weaker all the time, not losing his consciousness or presence of mind and feeliRgthat he was being blown by a change of wind across and down to the mouth of the American channel around the island Between 12»and 1 o'clock Girdeau saw a light, yet a long ways off, but he knew that help would come if he could hold out. The wind and the current were both in his favor, but his progress was slow, and he could not make any movement whatever to favor himself. On he floated, the light coming nearer and nearer, and at last he began to shout. His cries did not seem to be heard, and he floated by, shouting every second. At last he heard a boat put off, and was towed to the shore by a skiff containing a man and a boy from a hut on the beach of the island. After being got to the house and rubbed with whisky and wrapped up in blankets, Girdeau found that he Was not frozen, although suffering much, and was yesterday morning brought down to his house on a bed in a boat, and caused a notice of his accident to be filed for the informatian of the press. Hi3 adventure considering the season of the year, is truly wonderful, in the fact that the man did not drop from his place into a grave in the waters, and that he had the courage which so many men lack when personal danger bids one to be reasonrbly calm and hopeful, instead of hastening death by useless struggles.— Detroit Free Press, April 19.
"A Thankless Child"—Strange Reeord of Infllllal Conduct. A correspondent of the Washington Chronical, writing from Parkersburg, West Virginia, tells this lamentable story about an old German woman he met in the cars
Hereon, who resides ^Portsmouth, seut for her to come to Amcricn, and eight weeks* sgo she arrived. But his wife did not like her she was too old (74), and her hands too rough and now he had sent her back, alone, with no provisions for her comfort or passage, except tickets through to New York, and the following words written on some old business card "Please direct the bearer of this, an old woman, to the proper office to get to New York, and there to 68 Broadway street, to the general agency of the North German Lloyd, the general agent." This was without signature. As it was written in English, of which she understood nothing, she had no doubt that it was all that was necessary to get her safely back to Germany. But still she was almost heartbroken, for she had no home even now in 'Faderland,' as she had sold her little all, which she had spent years to collect, and had given $240, all that was left when she got to Portsmouth, to her son. Now she was sent back without her trunk even, with only 35 in her pocket, and no means of getting further than New York. All that could be done for the poor woman's comfort on the cars was done, and she staid over night at Parkersburg.

There was swell enough on the lake to make additional danger, the waves swashing into his face and mouth as he clung to the tossing skiff. Exerting all his skill, he righted the boat, and made an effort to free it of its load. As every thing was gone, even to his hat, which might have been improvised as an article to bail out water, he could do little or nothing, and the movement of the waters aided by his weight, soon caused the skiff to assume an inverted position. Three or four times the despairing man made attempts to clear the boat, but was baffled each trial, and finally cradled upon its bottom, as well as he could, feeling that his death was only a question of time.

From the New Orleans Picayune,
A am Tale—The lTps and Downs of Llfte —Inhumanity to man-A Fortune on a Death Bed.
Some time'since a gentleman, with with his wife aod two children, went to Ceder Keys, Florida, for the benefit of his health. He was in the last stage of that terrible malady, consumption, and his family boarded at tho only hotel in the place. For several months remittances came from Baltimore to them not much, but sufficient to pay their board. The salt breeze from the Gulf of Mexico brought no heeling balm to the sufferer, who continued to grow worse, and the time came when the remittances ceased. Letters to Baltimore failed to elicit funds, and want stared the little family in the face. The landlord waited for some time, but finally, with saddened heart, told his unfortunate boarders that his means did not enable him to support them longer and they must remove. With no funds and no friends, the little family, taking with them such scanty bedding as the hotel keeper could spare them, sought refuge in a miserablo hovel near by, which had been rudely conducted of refuse boards, as shelter for the negro hands sometimes employed at a neighboring mill.
Here the sufferer rapidly grew worse and the young wife and mother, who had hitherto never known want, but had been surrounded by the luxuries of life, was compelled to go out upon the Bea shore to gather oysters and catch crabs to furnish food for the loved ones, who were all unable to render any assistance.
Besides seeking food for the family, she was compelled to carry heavy slabs of wood from the mill for fuel, and indeed all the care of the household devolved upon her.
There camc a day when the life which had been but feebly pulsing through the consumptive's veins was fast dying out altogether. He was sinking fast to that realm where "the weary are at at rest," when a knock at the door announced a visitor. The person calling handed the lady a telegram containing the information that her husband had, by a recent decision, come into possession of an ample fortune. The glad tidings came all too late, and fell upon the ears of the dying man unheeded, ne was past all earthly aspirations, all earthly aid.
Through the village the news spiead like wild fire, and—sad mockery of human sympathy and kindness —the people flocked to offer their services. Some bore fruits, others took clean bedding and clothing. The object of their sudden solicitude was even then expiring, and before he could be removed his eyes closed, to open in a better world. What need to speak of the sad burial by the seaside, of the children's sobs, the widows anguish. It was soon over, and the lady obtaining funds, started for her home in Baltimore.
The Sherldans of the Xavj—Horrible Punishment of a Sailor an Board a United States Man-of-War—A Severe
Retake from Secretary Kobesoa. From the New York Sun. April 16. Ou the 19th of January last, Joseph King, a seaman in the United States navy, was tried on ceratin charges and ipecifications before a general conrt martial, held ou board the United States ship Portsmouth, then lying in the bay Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The finding of the court and its sentence are now published
order of the navy this order offers its the first opportunity ure havs ever had an official aet of the present secretary of the navy.
The prisoner was a sailor on the Portsmouth. He was accused, first of having used disrespectful language to his superior officer in May, 1869. For this offense he was tried before a summary court martial in the iame month and the second specification of the first charge on the present trial" was for using further disrespectful language to the officers of the ship at the time of tbis summary court martial. He was also charged with baring attempted to desert in December, 1R69, ana with brandishing a boat-
hook at the offeera who arrested him. The plena of the accused in bar of these charges and of the trial, present facts which are disgraceful to the of-. ficers who inflicted the tortures they detail. On the day following hia first offence, King was tried, and sentenced by the summary court-martial to confinement in double irons, on bread and water, for 30 days, loss of three month pay, and extra duty three months. In addition to the sentence of the court he was further illegally and outrage^ ously punished. He was confined in the launch of the Portsmouth, hia feet ironed to a ring-bolt, his hands in irons, exposed to the burning rays of the sun, and was forced to remain in this position from morning till nearly night. Then he was taken to the berth-deck of the vessel, gagged, and confined to a sweat-box, a close structure, about two feet square, with some twenty small holes through it at the highth of a man's face from the ground when standing. The ventilation was so poor that the prisoner's health was much injured, and it was found necessary to order medical treatment for him, even while still in confinement. He was afterward fully restored to duty without being informed that any charges were pending against him. The court, however, overruled the plea that the prisoner had thus already been sufficiently punished.
In regard to the charge of desertion, the prisoner pleaded in bar the infliction of illegal torture by his commanding officer in addition to the punishment perscribed by law. It seems he was confined in double irons on the ship's deck, and bis hands which were ironed behind him, were attached to an eye-bolt above, and kept up for 60 hours. He was gagged for 12 hours, and was so confined for ten days, with the exception of two intervals of 24 hours each. This was in excess of the punishment which could be lawfully imposed but the court ruled against the plea. The prisoner was found, guilty. He was sentenced to imprisonment for five years, with loss of pay, and at the expiration of his term to be dishonorably discharged from the naval service. The sentence went to the' secretary of the navy for his action.
We aro glad to say that Mr. Robeson heartily condemns the verdict of the court, and that he has ordered an investigation into the illegations of cruelty contained in the pleas on behalf of the prisoners. His decision is as follows
'It is apparent from the record of proceedings in this ease, that Joseph King, the accused, had, before this trial, been severely punished for the offences set forth in these charges and specifications. The circumstances attending hi9 confinement how that more was done than merely holding him in custody to await the action of a general court-martial. Whatever was extra to legal confinement, was punishment and though sufferings were impoied whioh no sentence could lawfully impose, and I which were as illegal and cruel as they were unnecessary to his safe keeping, the fact that the punishment was illegal and I cruel does not deprive him of his right to plead that punishment as expiation of his offence. "The secretary will not hear comment upon the nature of the punishment as set forth in the pleas of the accused. This is under investigation, and will be delt with hereafter aB circumstances may require. I "The finding and sentence in this oase are disapproved'and set aside for the reason that the accused had been already punished. "Ordinary Seaman Joseph King will, on receipt of this order, be discharged from confinement and restored to duty."
We now call upon the secretary of the navy to bring those officers to trial who inflicted sufferings on this sailor, which, in Mr. Robesons own words, "no sentence could lawfully impose." Such men disgrace the uniform of the United States. It reflects little credit on the humanity of naval officers, that a court-martial could be organized from among tbem which would, under the circumstances, impose such a sentence as that in this case. We do not know the names of all its members the president was Capt. Stephen D. Trenchard.
One of the disrespectful acts chaiged, against the accused in this case was that he said to the commander of the ship that a very warm place would not be full till he and old
A Strange Monster.
A strange monster was captured yesterday in the river, opposite Canton, by seme fishermen in their seine, I while dragging for fisli. We know not what to call it, or what it looks like, or how to describe it, for it i« unlike any creature of the earth, air or water, that we have ever seen. It is not a fish nor is it an alligator or crocodile or a turtle, but resembles the pictures we have have often seen in books, of the mythical dragon. It is a hideous looking and apparently savage monster—the last remnant of a pa9t age. It has a huge, slimy, scaly body, short, strong leg«. and immense claws, long serpent like tail, and sharp teeth, set in like tliose'of a saw. It chaws up ravenously everything with which it comes iu contact, but seems loth to leave the water even in quest of food, and can only be seen when drawn out by the chain with which it is made fast. We should judge it to be at least ten feet in length and weighs I probably 500 pounds. When provoked it makes a roaring-noise similar to a sea lion.

Hurley's iWasparilla is what it is represented. and 1 believe it the most wonderful medicine before the public. Nothing under tbo heavens could induce me to say so without proof of the strongest and surest kind therefore. 1 "peak willingly and positively on the subject.
Sly daughter has been afflicted with skin disease and stiffness of the joints for scv«rnl year'. I employed theprincipil physicians of the city and they could not euro her. I irave her your narilla than in nnything els Sarsaparilla not expecting it would do her much is genuine. Plea** express good, hut to my great astonishment she rapidly got well, and thank (iod continues s.i. Had .-be been taking any medicine I would not give this certificate: but your Sarasparilla. the only remedy employed, leaves no dmibt of it* medical qualities, and that it alone cured her. (Signed.)

For curing eolio, removing pain, quieting restlessness, and reloiving sick stomach, we have found it moro efficacious than all other remedies (wehaveever used. It is very pleasant to the taste, while most remedies for colic. AA.. are very nnuseous. Another great merit that will oommond itself to all parents is tho entire absence of the stupifying effects
on the

use of Dewee'g Mixture and other preparations we have used for similar diseases. We MOST I-ordinlly'reoommend it to all parents.

He refer* to the entiro West ana South, to bear him testimony lo the truth of the assertion, that in no ra.-c whatever will it fail to cure, if the directions are strictly followed and carried out. In a great many caecs a siorio dose has been sufficient for a eure. and whole families hare been OUNVL by a single bottle,with a perfect restoration of general health. It Is. however,prudent, and in ovory case more oertain to cure, if its use is continued in smaller dose* for a week or two after the disease ha* been ohecked. more especially in difficult and long standing cases. sually,this medicine will not require any aid to keep the bowels in good order, should the patient, however,requirea oathartl* medicine after having taken three or four doses of the Tonic,a tingle dote of MULL's Vegetable Family Pills will be suffioient.
