-THE REPUBLICAN. CLEARFIELD, PA. WEDNESDAY MORNING SEPT. S4. U!l. How Oar Fathers Punished, OrrlNUERI AGAlNoT TUB LAW MADE TO APPKAA RIDICULOUS. It is not very long ago iinoe pun lahmonts which were principally cnl culuted to hold tho oftoniior up to rid icule woro so rife in Knglund thitl ono might Buspoct that thy were intend ed to amino the pooplo, in tho dny wlion there was no uomio periodicals, rather than to dotor from tho offense. For instance, low villngos were with out their ducking stools for scolds, ono I) and rod and fifty yenrs ago. Nay, the Cholmsford Chronicle for April 10, 1801, contains tho following paragraph : "Last wcok a woman notorious for her vociferation wna indicted for a common scold at Kingston ; and tho facts boing fully proved, she was sen tenced to recoivc the old punishmont of being ducked, which was accord ingly oxocutcd upon her in the Thames by the piopor offlcors, in a chair pre served by the town for that purposo; and as if to prove the justico of too court's Bontonoe, on ber return from tho water's aido she foil upim ono of her acquaintance, without provoca tion, with tongue, tooth and nail." The drunkard's cloak was a barrel with holes in tho top and sides, thr'o which tho intemperate man's bend and arms woro passed, and in this helpless condition be was obliged to walk through the streets of the town, the sport of the idle boys. Tho Chinese have a similar punishment. A seat in the stocks cunnot have been pleasant for a proud and retiring disposition ; but apart from the moral element, the severity of the punish mont must have varied somewhat an duly with the time of yenr. On a fine but cloudy July day a philosophi cal culprit who had no personal eno- mios in his village might have borno his sentence with considerable equa nimity, solacing himself, perchance, by watching the fluctuations of a cricket match in progress on the groon; while in a frosty Fohruary, with a keen northeast wind blowing, liiccabocca himself would have found tho hour of his release a weary while in striking. To stand in tho pillory mast have been an exceedingly humiliating as well as exasperating punishment. A man could not bo prnced in a more lu dicrous position than with his head and hands protruding through holes exactly fitting them, and his body hid away behind the planking. Flies might wander about his nose and ears; gnats might sting him without his be ing ublo to drivo them off, save per chance, by a hideous grimace, which would only dislodge the tormentors for an Instant, while it addod consid erable to the grotesque, absurdity of the culprit s appearance The sevorily of this punishment, as well as of the stocks, was, or course, dependent upon tho amount of popu lar indignation excited by theotlonso. When this ran high, tho wrotched man's unprotected face was in tho po sition of a live and sentient Aunt Sally's, an object for evory descrip tion of missile; whilo in such a case as Do too s, wboro sympathy was on tho side of the Bullerer, "publio ex. poauro became a publio ovation." AVhon a Cairo merchant is dotectcd in using false weights and moasures, or in adulturating his goods, he is placed against his own doorpost, stand ing on tiptoe and nailed by the car to the wood-work. It is important that bo should get free without amputating tho member, for that is tho penally for theft ; and it is probablo that the smart tradesman would be horrified at having his little tricks confoundod with vulgar inartislio stealing. For tt second o (Ten so the thief loses his other ear ; for a third his nose. By tbe-br, perhaps I am wrong to use the present tense, for these penalties may bo obsolote at the present day They may have a model jail and a reformatory at Cairo by this time. Naval and military punishments seemed to havo beon very generally framed with the idea of rendering the offender ridiculous in tho eyes of his comrades. Ticketing was ono of these ; a man was so suspended by his wrists that bis heels rested on a wooden peg driven into the ground Hiding tho wooden horso wus another; tho back of this ponal stood was very narrow, and weights attached to the rider's legs renderod his scat all the mora painful. Thoso punishmonls were nut oniy numiuaiing aim ex tremely severe, but they too often in flicted permanont injury on the suf- Icrors, on which lattor account they were abolished, and for many years the cat-o'-nine-taiis ruled supreme; though the use of thnt instrument of torturo was to an oxtont which excit ed dread and sympathy, instead of mirth. rs- Their vuiuu is uy u moaiua , ciated, but the rapidity with which peoplo are waking up to their neces sity and asofulncns i one of tho kig- mucant signs 0! the times. Pew lam- ilios are now content with one nows papor. The thirst for knowledge is not easily sntislled, and books, though useful yoa, absolutely nocossarv in their pluco fail to meet the demands oi youth or ago. our country news paper is eagerly sought and its con. tents as eagerly devourod ; then comos the demand tor tho city news, nation al and foreign nows. Next to tho po litical come tho literary and (cientiflo journals. All theso are demandod to satisfy the cravings of the active mind. iS'owspapcrs are also raluablo to material prosperity. They advertise the village, county or locality. They spread bvlore the reader a map on which may to traced character, drsiirn and progress. If a stranger calls at a hotel bo tlrst Inquires lor tho villago newspaper; if a friond comos from a distance tho very next thing after family greetings, bo inquiros for your village or county pagor, and you tool discomfortod if you are onublo to And a Into copy, and confoundod if yoa sro compollud to say you do not tuks it Newspapers are just as necessary to fit a man for bis truo position in lifo as food or raiment.
