Military Punishment.
The Mutiny Act may be called the sheet
anchor of Royalty in England. w
pasted in 1689, after a Scottish cavaliy regi
ment declared for Jambs Ih, at Abingdon,
and was intended to meet that special case.
It is now an annnal-that is, it is in opera
tion only from year to year, to allow Par
liament to have control oyer the army and
navy, and, if not re-enacted in proper time,
not one soldier or sailor could be lawfully
held in service one hour after the expiration
of the time during which their services were
recognized by the act. The money-votes,
for naval and military defences, are only for
the current year; let the Mutiny Act, under
which they are voted, not be renewed, and
there would be neither army nor fleet, be
cause there would be no pay.
In the British army and navy, from time
immemorial, corporal punishment has ex
isted. Formerly, it was inflicted on slight
occasions, and with extreme severity and
cmelty. It was no uncommon thing to in
flict a thousand lashes, with a cat-o’-nine
tails, upon the naked back of a condemned
soldier or sailor—actually nine thousand
lashes. The “tails,” made of hard-twisted
whip-cord, plaited and knotted, were some-
times steeped in brine to harden them; and,
it has been alleged, that bits of wire were
sometimes inserted in the knots, to ensure
the rapid cutting of the flesh off the human
frame. About seventeen years ago, when a
private soldier, named White, was literally
flogged to death, near London, by sentence
of a court martial, public opinion has set in
very strongly against corporal punishment.
For the most part, the officers of the army
and navy have protested against the aboli
tion of this cruel torture. In 1860, how
ever, Parliament was compelled to yield to
“ the pressure from without. ’ ’ Fifty lashes
became the maximum to be inflicted for
any offence ; a man must have been con
victed of one disgraceful offence against dis
cipline before he can be subject to flogging
for the next such offence; and even after a
first offence he may be restored to the non
liable class by a year’s good conduct.
Still, even fifty lashes, with nine whips
savagely bruising, cutting, and tearing the
flesh at each stroke, is a horrible torture,
sometimes creating physical ailments which
terminate fatally. It. has been observed,
too, that since the number of lashes has
been reduced, their severity has increased.
A wretched victim sometimes suffers more
now, from filly lashes, than formerly from
thrice that number. The torture is inflicted
by drummers in the army and by boat
swains’ mates in the navy. The latter are
always strong meD, the drummers are gene
rally w< aker and younger, but they are
regularly trained to the science of flogging,
by frequent practice on a sack stuffed with
shavings, and if they do not lay on the lash,
in actual punishment, so as to tortune tae
victim effectually, are themselves liable to
he tried and punished lor neglect of duty.
This terrible and horrible torture is not in
flicted in the French Army, the morale oi
which is very high. Neither is it sanctioned
elsewhere. Our own military system is free
from it. So is our naval; but flogging on
board ship hasnotiong been abandoned by us.
There were all sorts of pwdictions, at the
time, that sailors would mutiny, in our ves
sels of war, if the power to flog them was
taken away, but the event has shown the
fallaey of such prophecies.
The British House of Commons had the
Mutiny Bill be/ore them on the 11th of
March. A motion to omit the clause which
sanctions the infliction of the punishment of
flogging was sustained by several members.
The points they relied on were that the
punishment was brutal and demoralizing ;
that discipline could be maintained without
it; that the French and Austrian armies,
confessedly as well disciplined as the British,
had no corporal punishment; that flogging
was inflicted for the most trivial offences;
that while a civilian who committed a theft
was only punished with imprisonment, a
soldier was subjected to lashes which in
flicted upon him marks for life; that the
infliction of this punishment was an
outrage on the boasted civilization and
Christianity of England; that, instead of
having two hundred Sashes inflicted a 3
ioimerly, the maximum now was fifty, and ,
yet the discipline of the army- was not worse
now than then; that this fact should encou
rage them to get rid of the system alto
gether; that while the -British* soldier
in India was subject to the degradation
of the lash, the native soldier was ex
empt from it; that it was revolting
to decency and humanity to call out a
whole regiment to witness this brutal tor
ture; and that it was utterly inconsistent
with the support which England gave to
the Northern States of America for reliev
ing the negro from the lash, or with the in
dignation which they poured out upon Rus
sia for the use of the knout.
The reply to this was flogging must be
retained, because the British army was re
cruited from the lowest classes, and that
among the soldiers of England there were
some for whom the punishment of flogging
was necessary. The response to this was,
“If so, get rid of such brutes. Why de
grade the British army by classing them
•with felons ? They had heard oi some of
those being 1 drummed out,’as being unfit
associates for human kind. Why not get
rid of them all, and spare the men of the
army from this degrading punishment.”
The clause continuing to legalize flogging
in the British army and navy was carried,
on a division, by the small Government, of
three. This is promising. The thin point
of the wedge is thus inserted. In a year or
two the British soldier will be freed from
the lash.
At the same time, let us confess that the
British army is very low in its morale, and
therefore requires sharp discipline, particu
larly in time of peace. The rank and file
are men too often of the lowest gTade, who
enlist attracted by a bounty. The pay is
small—only twenty-six cents a day for the
infantry, out of which they haveto provide
their own food and necessaries, even their
clothes, except the outer garments. Honest
men, who can earn half a dollar a day by
handicraft, or any other labor, avoid the
army. Mostly the ranks are filled with
idle, skulking fellows —sometimes with cri.
minals, who enter them to avoid detection
and punishment. The French troops, on the
other hand, are drawn by conscription from
all ranks of society, and hence have a higher
moral tone. Our own army ought to be
better, in this respect, than even the French,
for it is composed of volunteers as well as
ot conscripts, and almost every private sol
dier can read and write, whereas the rule is
the other way in the British and French
armies. Bence, too, from this very culture,
such a military punishment as flogging,
which degrades the victim to the level of a
brute, would not be tolerated in this coun
try. An American regiment would never
stand by, forming a hollow square, in the
midst of which, tied to a triangle, a com
rade, ("probably for no heavier crime than
having exceeded the limits of sobriety, in
action or words, ) was having the flesh tom
Off his back, by blows from a whip, (nine
whips at'once, rather, ) laid on with skilled
severity by relays of drummers. "Yet this is
frequently done in England.
The German Union Club-
We have carefully examined the platform
and resolutions adopted by the German
Union Club, published elsewhere in our
column 8, and pronounce them worthy of
all support. They embody radical princi
ples; they repudiate all compromise with
rebellion or slavery, and advocate the
amendment to the Constitution prohibiting
slavery ; they deny the dangerous doctrine
that in national questions State authority is
supdtior to the General Government, and
several of their Union propositions are in
valuable. The last resolution is especially
important, for it denies that the radical
German population intends to aid the pre
tended Conservative party by refusing to
support the candidate of the Baltimore
Convention.
Some time since we denied, on good au
thority, that the action of certain clubs in
St. Louis bad anything but a local meaning
ing, and predicted that the radical Germans
of Pennsylvania would not only decline to
sustain an independent candidate, but would
steadily avoid forming themselves into a fo
reign party. We are glad to have our state
ments confirmed by so influential a body as
is the German Union Club of Philadelphia.
It is an organization which has character
and power, and at its head are some of our
best citizens. The action of this club is au
thoritative, and represents the most intelli
gent and influential of the Germans of the
State. We have the right, then, to affirm
that the threat that the Germans of the
United States are resolved to oppose
Mr. Lincoln, if he is nominated
by the National Convention, and sustain
General is simply an idle threat.
It is to be noted, too, that the special claim
these independent Western clubs have made
to radicalism is false; the German Union
Club has adopted the boldest and best prin
ciples of the Union party, and it is not the
less radical because it believes that the only
way to defeat Copperheadism is by sustain
ing one great Union leader.
Henky Wardßbkcher’s address, “Pow
er ; the Law of its Distribution,” has never
been delivered, and is entirely new. Those
who infer from its title that it will notr be a
popular lecture are in error, for Mr. Beecher
can treat no subject as an abstraction, and
would make even an essay on metaphysics
practical, interesting, and amusing.
LETTER FROM " OCCASIONAL.”
Washington, March 29, 1804.
Why were the men who constituted the
main support of Mr. Buchanan’s criminal
and calamitous Administration, and who
apologized for and advocated his shameless
proscriptions, permitted to direct the pro
ceedings of the Democratic State Conven
tion recently held in Philadelphia ? This is
the question in many intelligent quarters,
and the answer is as easy to give as the
question is easy to ask. It is because the
tried and trusted champions of the Demo
cracy in its best days have indignantly cut
loose from a perverted organization, and are
now cordially acting with the Union party.
The efficiency of the element that has sprung
from this separation cannot be over-esti
mated. It has penetrated and enlightened
the daikest recesses of party prejudices,
inspired the manliest and boldest policy,
and presented examples of the most patriotic
magnanimity. When suchmen sunder their
relations with a great party, the only way to
secure compensation for their loss is for that
party to prove its fidelity to its own great
principles and pledges. That is the method
to b.-ing them back to their allegiance, and
to convince the masses how wrong they
were to distrust their old party. But how
has it been with these leade^g—the refuse of
the old leaders of this party—since the
rebellion burst upon the land ? Forgetting
that to them, and to them and their asso
ciates alone, attaches the frightful respon
sibility of sustaining an Administration
which did everything to encourage the trai
tors to begin the war, they furiously attack
every independent man who sustains the
Government, and transcend all their former
outrages by opposing that Government, and
by giving political aid and comfort to the
bailors.- Untaught by a dreadful expe
rience, unaffected by the awful responsi
bilities of our rulers and people, and utterly
indifferent to the written- and remembered
lecoid of the Democratic party, they refuse
to contribute even their cheap sympathy
to their country, and glory in the
lowest and most baleful intrigues against the
Federal Administration, which is now, more
than ever, the only symbol of Government,
snd the only barrier between anarchy and
public and private safety. That the State
Convention was resolved to make this ap
parent to the people, or powerless to resist
so fatal an example, is proved by the promi
nence given to the hold and reckless men
who figured so prominently in the guilty
transactions of the last Administration, and
in the greater guiltiness of the antagonism
to Douglas, the great embodiment of Demo
cratic principles, in the last Presidential
campaign. Occasional.

The Lake and Mississippi Canal*
The President to* day communicated to Congress
the report of C B. Stewart, consulting engineer,
upon the improvement! to pan gunboata from tide*
water to the Western lakes. The engineer assumes
that upon the connection of those lakes with tide
water depends our common defence as well as
general welfare, and that the Mississippi river
should likewise be connected with the lakes. He
urges that the great food-producing region uses this
chain of lakes for transit of exports and imports,
which is a line communication at present utterly
defenceless, leaving the lake cities to destruotionby
English gunboats on a declaration of war by Great
Britain, thus inflioting damage to which the cost of
the proposed improvements would be utterly insig
nificant. He makes various recommendations, and
gives as total estimates for improved gunboat looks
for the Erie, Oswego, Champlain, and Cayuga and
Seneca canals, with seven feet of water, over $lB,-
000,000, and with eight feet of water $20,600,000, and
the cost ol a canal around Niagara Falls at from ten
to thirteen millions of dollars.
Colonel Dahlgreu’s Command*
The surgeon of the 2d New IToik Cavalry, who
accompanied Colonel Dahlgren, and was taken
prisoner, hut now released, states that in the fight
at Richmond on Monday afternoon, Colonel Dahl
geen’s forces drove the rebel# over t<vo miles and
inside the second line of fortifications. We lost five
killed and a number wounded, and punished the re*
bels severely. The surgeon was left behind to care
for the wounded, and was esptured by the 21 North
Carolina, into whose lines he rode, supposing them
to be out troops.
He was taken to Richmond, plaoed in a close cell
with Colonel Cook, Colonel Litchfield- who was
wounded, as stated—three other offioera, and four
negroes. From Colonel Cook, who was at Colonel
Dahlgbbk’s tide, he learned that Colonel Dahl
gbbn fell from his horse, dead. The rest were ne al
ly all The most severe treatment was
given to those officers. They were fed on corn-bread
and water, and subjected to insults.
Ordered to a Command.
Lieutenant Commander Samuel Magaw has

A Gang of Horse Contractors Broken Up.

Discipline in the Naval Service.
The following order has just been Issued by the
Secretary of the Navy:
Navy Department, March 22—General Order
No. 31 .—Ensigns R. S. Chew and H. J. Blake having
bien reported to the Department for going below
in their watch, without being regularly relieved,
while on du’y on board the United States steam
frigate Niagara, (Commodore T. T. Craven, com
manding, and Lieutenant Commander Henry Erben,
executive tfficer,) theirappointments to the grade
or lieutenant, for which they were recently nomi
nated to the Senate and confirmed, have been sus
pended.
For the same offence, the appointments of Aottng
Ensigns W. S. Dana, E. F. Harrington, William B.
Hoff, and C. Ratbbone,have been revoked, and they
have been oxeeied to return to their studies at the
Naval Academy at Newport, R. 1., as midshipmen.
Acting Ensign H. U. Irvin, -who was also attached
to the Niagara, and waa guilty of the offenoe of
ovei staring his leave, has been ordered to the United
states steamer Glaueus (third rate), with directions
that he shall not for six months be permitted to go
out of that vessel. ' . . , ,
The Department cannot admit the plea of ig
norance, or that of usage on board the vessels at the
Naval Academy, on the part of these officers, who,
however young, have been long enough in the
service to aspiie to and expect promotion. If they
had no other source of Information, they should
have leari-ed from the 41 act for the better govern
ment of the navy, 44 with which aU persons in the
service must' be supposed to be familiar, that to
leave his station before regularly relieved 1 * lean
offence which subjects the person guilty of iito the
pumsbment of death, it must, indeed, be obvious
to the most ordinary intelligence, that if an officer
cannot be trusted in his watch, he has yet to learn
the simplest practical duties of his profession, and
is unfitted for a station where the lives of others, as
well as the honor ol his country, may depend on hie
vigilance and fidelity.
The lenient cornse which the department hat
adopted in this case has been induced by the con
sideration that, although the severe punishment
which a court martial would adjudge might be more
effectual as a warning, yet the young officers in
fault mav. with some reason, plead in extenuation
of their offences, that they were not duly admon
ished by those whose duty it was to Impress them
with a proper sense of discipline, of the sertous na
tureanS inevitable const Quences oftbrtr mi.oou
duot. It is not probable that so many of them
would have erred habitu.lly on board ttie NUg.ra,
except Iromtht* oauU.

character of the deceased in life, which, he eald, would
he endorsed hy the people of Illinois, not only on acconnt
of his consistency on the question t of anti-slavery, but
on other vital questions. Mr. Lovejoy did not livelong
enough to see the great object of his life accomplished,
viz: the entire abolition of slavery ;but long enoughto
see the initiative steps taken tor the accomplishmentof
this great end. Like the great Jewish captive, he lived
long enough to catch a glimpse of the promised land.
m*. Lovejoy was a true Christian, a ginlalcompanion,
au able statesman, and an affectionate husband and
father "What more could he say of him ? There was no

an Oriental writer, ' • Word, are tbed a U Kb tenol ear th,
deida the sons ol heaven .It would be In vain that we
pan id tributes to Mr. iovcjoy if we do hjsdd
vice and pass resolutions against slavery. The decayed

other men were timid he was unhesitating. Though he

The New Yoik Evening-Post of to-day says:
Gold has fallen this morning from 166#, the opening
price, to 166)4, and exchange is moderately active at
178#@179. ___ . ..
The demand at the Sub-Treasnry far the now sold cer
tificates has been active, and a considerable number of
them have been disposed of at 166)4 to importers.
The loan market is active, and the supply of capital at
t@7 is increasing. Currenoy.in consequence of the
diain to the country* the aggregate amount in the banks
anfrin the Sub-Treasury i* somewhat lessened. The re
turn of the circulating medium is, however, s-* rapid
and so strong that the supply ot legal-tenders is kept
ample, and le«s apprehension is now entertained of
stringency from this cause.
The stock market opened weak, and closed with an
improving tone. Governments are firm. State stocks
quiet, bank shares dull, railroad bonds strong, and
railroad shares irregular.
Before the first session very little business was doing,
as there was an indisposition to sell except at an &d
-v*nee on last evening’s latest quotations. Gold was
quoted at 165#@166. New York Central at 141)4(5) 142, Erie

CITY ITEMS.
A Gbbat Household Blessing. —lndependent
of the great advantages in an economic point of
view, oi every family possessing a sewing machine,
the fact that it is the highest promoter of health
and preserver of lire ever vouchsafed to woman,
renders this invention incompsrably the most im
portant of this or any former age. Still, general as
thlß praise applies to Sewing Machines as a whole,
there are points of difference between the various
machines in the marhet that are of the utmost im
portance to buyers. For tMfamUy purposes, for ex
ample, the popular Grover & Baker instrument,
sold at 730 Chestnut street, is unquestionably the
brat. It not only performs a greater variety of
work, with the greatest neatness and durability,
but it accomplishes what no otter Scoring Machine
attempts, prominent among which is 'its capacity tor
fine EsumoiDEßv. The Grover & Baker machine,
we may state, has taken the highest premium over
all competitors wherever it has been exhibited.
The Stitching Booms now connected with the
Agency are a great publio convenience, as the saw
ing there done, being executed on the Grover &
Baker instruments, is superior to all others ia
strength and elegance ol finish.
MAGHincBHT Stock op Sptiisfl Clothing. —
Mes.n- C. Somers & Son, No. 625 Chestnut .treat,
under Jayne’. Hall, have thl. leason greatly in.
creased their faciiltie* for meeting the want, of the
public in the way of elegant fashionable Clothing.
Their importation, are not only the largeet that
they have ever made, and the moat exquisite in se
lection, but their increased force of the most ta
lented cutteis in Ihe country, and their determi
nation not to he outdone by any rival eetabllehment
in the United States, oannot fill to secure for them
a very large increase of patronage. We have had
an advance glimpse of their elegant stock, which
will be formally opened on the Ist of April, and can
commend it to- gentlemen of taate as eminently
worthy of their attention.
The "Floksnce ” Sewing Machine is the only
machine erer given to the public that baa risen to
the highest place in the popular estimation on its
own merits. It was long known to a few that the
<> Florence ” machine possessed advantages superior
to any other Sewing Machine In the market, but
the inability of the-Company to meet the popular
demands kept them from extending their facilities
ror selling. This difficulty is now, however, over
come, and with the opening of the splendid new
Agenoy of the Florenee Company, at 630 Chestnut
street; a new era hae dawned upon the Sawing
Maohine trade of Philadelphia. Already they are
selling more machine* than any other single estah
liihment In the United States, and 11 the cty is still
they come." A part of tms enormous demand arises
from the fact that many persons are selling oat their
other machines for the purpose of baying the Flo
rence instead. Sensible idea!
Future Prospects. —No man can fully discern
the future. But among the most probable tilings
that are not absolutely known is the prediction that,
for years to come, the best and cheapest Coal in Phi
ladelphia will be sold at 835 North Ninth street, the
yard of the popular Coal dealer of this city, Mr. W.
W. Alter. Everybody is pleated with his Coal.
The 11 Prize Medal” Shibt, invented by Mr.
John F. Tsggert, and sold by Mr George Grant,
6XO Chestnut street, is, without exception, the beat
shirt of the age, in fit, comfort, beauty, and dura
bility. Hii stock of Gentlemen** Furnishing
Goods, of his own exeluslve manufacture and Im
portation, is also the eholoest in the city, and his
prices are moderate.
Opening Dat.—We are Informed that the enter
prising Millinery house of Wood & Cary (125 Chest
nut street)! will have their grand annual opening of
spring bonnets on Thursday, the Slst met. The-dis
play wiU fully sustain the previous reputation of
this well known house, and ouf Philadelphia ladies
will not let this opportunity pass, as the Arm are
making extraordinary preparations to give the ut
most satisfaction.
Eabter Monday.— Easter Monday waa observed
as a holiday. The weather was fine, and crowds of
promenaders Ailed the streets. The ladies looked
smiling and happy, while their attendant beaux pre
sented an admirable appearanoe, particularly where
they were attired in apring suits procured at the
Brown Stone Clothing Hall of Kookhlil A. Wilson,
Nos. 60S and 605 Chestnut street, above Sixth. The
most gallant-looking all wear apparel made at this
famous establishment.
Why is there not a committee appointed by Con
gress to "buy a broom” to present to Mr. Roebuck,
M. Pi, bo as to enable him to “ sweep the Federal
shipping from the seas!” Truly, Mr. Roebuck wants
to make a clean thing of It—that Is, the osean.
After that is done we hope be will be employed by
the city to sweep the streets, as IKtl would be com.
paratlvely a light job. Roebuck, If you want a good
working suit of Clothes, apply to Oi atlMj Stokes ht
Co., under theSontinental, and you willbe suited.
Good Advion
“In reading authors, when you And
Blight passages, that strike your mind,
And which, perhaps, you may have reason
To think ol at another season.
Be not contented with the sight,
But take them down in black and white;
By mob respect you may be taught
Where the best clothing: oan be bought.”
Granville Stokes, Fashionable Clothier, No. 600
Chestnut street, is selling his superb stock at greatly
leduced prices.
Economy should be fbaoticed by everybody
In all thlnge. One dollar expended now in pur
chasing a bottle of Jayne's Expectorant, by those
troubled with a slight cough or hoarseness* or sore
throat, may save the expense of a doctoi’x Mil. A
neglected cough often endain eonsumptUKV A slight
Inflammation of the lining of the wind tubes, the
usual symptoms of which are a tore throat and a pain
in the bseast, will soon lead, through want ol at

Jayne’s Expectorant. It is a standard remedy, and
i’a turative properties have been tested by thousands
