I fully expected to bo removed.
First iiecauao ot our interview ol
my liouso, on Tuesday night, tho IOtli

At onr intcrviow on Tnosdny night
above mentioned you informed me
that Governor Geary demanded my
removal, boo mine I had used my ofllcittl.
papers from tho Treasury of tho Unit

of this State. ; True It ie, I did not
stale, when I asked for those pnpers,
that they wcro for my ptivnlo use,
simply because such statement would
have been false. ; .Nor did I purposely
conceal the fact tliitC 1 Intended to
publish tliom,as Governor Geary would
testily, if bo could in any way bo in

sons in tho Auditor-General's and
Stale Treasurer's Departments that I
was preparing a statement for publi

Slalo claims ngninst tho United Slates.
Tho very first use I made of tho orig
inal papers in my possession was an
official or public ono. Immediately
upon rccoiving them (on tho Silt or
I th inst.,) I exhibited thoin to the Au
ditor General nnd suggested to 1iim
that itnmodinlc steps bo taken to in
vestigate the matter nnd secure the
money clearly owing lo tho Stato.

Why did not Governor Goary bring
his Special Agent to account long ago f
If not before, ho certainly knew Iwo
months ago thut this agent bad in his

you had expressed yourself both nt

Kith .llio manner in which I bad per

At our interview this morning, you
ufl'ccted tho opinion, that, by my
ilinrgcs against Governor Geary, 1
had virtually removed myself from tbo

and you denied me tho common cour

misLment. $ . U
Tho relation of teachor and scholar
is greatly misunderstood, both on the
part of parents and teachers. Yet, it
should not oven bo debatable, because
us cvoryuay mo. -it is uocnica nyine
courts, that it is tho business of tho
teacher to exact obudionce in school,
nnd it is his logal right. "Ho must '
exercise reasonable judgment nnd dis
cretion in determining, whon lo pun
ish and to what extent." Various roa
sons unite lo make him tho best judgo
of tic occasion and extant. 1 . , v: . )
"To form a correct opinion us lo
tho noccssily and extent uf the pun.
islinienl,eonaiderablo allowanco should
bo made to tho teacher by way of
protecting him in the exercise ot his
discretion, llunco tho teacher is not'
liable on the ground of excess of pun
ishment, unless it Is dourly execssion.
If thoro is any - rcubjouublu doubt
wholhcr the punishment wus exces
sive, tho teacher should have the ben
efit of the doubt."
As to tho tiffed of mnrks mnde in
whipping, tho following cuso is tho ru
ling one on record ;
A lady in Now York punished a
small child to such nn extent as to
leave marks, ull of which were of such
a chuructcr us to puss away and lonvo
no pormanont injury. The judgo in-'
struded tbo jury that if they bclievod
tho child (six or seven years old) hud
been whipped so us to leave marks,
the teacher was guilty of assault and
buttery.. Under the churgo, the Jury ..
found the lady guilty, but she appeal
ed lo a higher court, in which Judge
G'uston in tin able and exhaustive opin
ion rcvorscd tho decision of tho court
below. Hoar him:, ... , , ,
"Bulany correction, tibwovcr severe,
which produces temporary pain only,
and no pcrmnnont ill,' cannot bo pro
nounccd ' Immoderate,' sinco it' may
havo been necessary for tho reforma
tion 6f the child, and doc4 not Injuri
ously nfiect its fat uro well'uro. With
in the sphoro of Ms authority, tho
master iu the judgo when correction
is required, and of the degreo of cor
rection necessary ; and like all others
intrusted with a discretion, ho ounnot
bo made penally responsible fororrorof
judgmout, bill only for wickedness of
purpose, lucre was au error in tha
instruction given to tho jury, that if
tho child was whipped by tho defend
ant, so us lo occasion marks, tho
teacher lllltl nlren,ln,l Imr nut Imi'ittr
and was guilty as charged. The marks
wero ull temporary, and in a short
time disappeared, nopermanont injury
wns done to the child."
This is the luw in Pennsylvania, and
prosecutors will nol find it nn easy
mutter lo col tins decision reversed
by any court in the State.
