Tbc subject of corporal punishment at the
public schools lias been agitated by the Board
of Education. This In a theme which every few
months affords directors the opportunity to
waste all their ungramuiiiticul eloquence Not
very long airo corporal puulshmcnt was
abolished In all the public schools, on the
ground that It was degrading to the pupil, and
In too many cases a mere pretext for gratify
ing the teacher's vile passions, without any
Toforonco to tbo fact that it sometimes
transgresses the bounds of decency
and defeats the very end H was lntondcd to
secure. Now It seems, however, since Mr.
Bcechcr has discovered that sugar-cane is not
tbo only cane fit to bring up a child on, that
corporal correction is to bo reinstated into Its
old place. One of the directors prudently mado
the suggestion that it should be administered to
the small boys only, and that the largo ones
should be allowed to nn walloped on account
of tho physical improbability of female teachers
coping with them. It there is truth in statis
tics, however, it is generally feminine teachers
who aro most successful in administering this
flort of chastisement, and who aro least merci
ful In tho degree of it which they inflict. Tho
non-waxlng system has had a pretty fair trial,
' and Is said to havo befcn a failure, and now tho
"waxing" regime is to bo restored with especial
reference to the Bmall Boy.
Trlllnurmil lovc.
Not many months ago a yotuur girl of about
sixteen married an old man of sixty. The girl
was Irlh by birth, but had been brought up by
Germans in this country, so that sho spoke Eng
lish with a beautiful brogue made up of equal
parts of Irish aud German accent. The man is
a Frenchman, and though he has been a con
siderable time in this country, cannot speak a
word of its language. How ho made love It
would not be easy to tell if love were a passion
that required words for its expression. Happily,
however, it is such a mysterious and profound
emotion that words oficn only obscure the
meaning it burns to express. I suppose he mado
signs to her signifying certain moods and tenses
of tho verb amo, and that she responded to
the conjugation. At any rato they were
duly married, and had not been married
long before, as with "Sir I'ctcr"' and "Lady
Teazle," he found that ho bad a young wife and
she discovered that sho had an old husband. He
was very jealous; she was very provocative of
jealousy. He used to lock her up in her room,
whence she used to csiNipo at all hours of tho
night and day. Finally the trilingual pair mado
their appearance yesterday afternoon in one of
tho police courts of this city. The French sexa
genarian pleaded his case very pathetically in
his own language, but seemed to produce uo
vQect whatever upon the heart of tho Irish
German of sweet sixteen.
"Coine, oh, come with me!" he exclaimed,
endeavoring to put his arms around her. He
expressed himself of course In French, of which
this is a free translation, with the poetic tlugo
preserved which it possessed in the original.
"I veel not; I veel not!" exclaimed the young
girl.
"Come, oh, come with me!" pleaded
Frenchman once more, with a doailng
beaming from his eye.
"I veel not; 1 veel not !" exclaimed tho
once more in a melodramatic voice.
tbo
leer
girl
Thereupon ensued a trilingual gibbering
which Mr. Fechter might have understood, tak
ing in the sense of all three languages simulta
neously, but which nobody In court did. The
young girl "made for him" in both Eugllsh and
German, pouring forth language with a volu
bility which it was a pity was not spent upon a
better cause. Ho answered her back again in
equally voluble French, until at length tho
police justice put an end to tho matter by ad
vising her to go home and give him another
trial, which she at length agreed to do.

In our obituary of the late Mr. E. N. Thaver wo
alluded to a rumor that had been current during

midshipman on board the lormer vessel, he hid
himself In the hold of his ship. After our article
appeared we thought that it would have been
belter it Bucn an aiiu6iou nad not been made,
and our excuse must be the haste iu which we
wero obliged to collect our material and write
tho notice. Mr. Thayer was a gentleman for
whom we always entertained a most cordial
esteem, and iu referring to the above mentioned
rumor we bad no oesiro or mtentioii to say any
thing but in a kindly spirit. We regret, how
ever, that iinythitig was said on the subject, and
we vcrv gladly publish the following letter Irom

Important to Suffeiiebs from Nervous Excite
ment. A gentleman residing In Grummercy place. New
York (whose name it would not be proper to mention),
was suffering torribly about threo weeks an o from the
cifects of dissipation. He could not sleep, vomited fre
quently, was tormontod by horriblo funoios, and could not
keep a limb still. Opiates made him worse. While in
this oonditionhe was visitod by a friend, who advised him
to try Plantation BrrrFns as an anodyne, stomachic,
and tonic "No uie," said the Bick man, despondingly;
"nothing will save me. I'm a gone case." "Pebaw'."said
bis friend, "you're worth forty deud men yet. I'm going to
doctor you now." . So saying, be put on his hat, and going
to the nearest druggist's present ly returned with a bottle
of the Bitters, of which ho administered a dose forthwith.'
It bad a soothing, cheering, truucUilli.ing effect. For a
woek thereafter the gentleman continued to take the
tonic regularly, according to the directions, and at the ond
of that timn was able to roturn to bUHinoHS in sound
health, and with a clear intellect. This information is
lurnUhed by Alexander T. Mmthrora. of Morrisaniu, who
will coulirm it if addressed by muil.
