Itecent cases of brutality, by parents
and teachers, in disciplining children,
have given fresh impulse to the discussion
of the merits of physical torture as a
means of correction in families and
schools. In some of these instances pun
ishment
was carried so far that death came
to the relief of .the sufferers, end the tor
mentors justified , their severity as the con
setentions. perforiaance of a solemn duty.
This is scivilly revolting, but these
uiln
stances are de more shocking when it
is seen that, a Ming the premises upon
which the inflictors started, the ionclusion
arrived at was legitimate and inevitable.
Upon the rightfulness and • utility of
whipping in schools the courts, as usual,
maintain the consen ative position: Usage,
embodied in statutes, allows it, and the
Judges sustain the authority of the rod.
Still, they.exhibit a perplexity as to'exact
ly hots far to go. If it is not only the I
right but the duty of teachers to subdue I
the obdurate wills of pupils, and whipping
is admitted among She authorized instru
mentalities
to that end, it becomes exceed-
!ugly difficult to determine preciselywhere
infliction must stop. A blowless ,or SUP
may decide whether the btahhoin will is
-conquered or not; it may decide, too,
whether the pupil shall live of die. 'ln
case death happens It becomes a question
Of intention whether the teacher was con-.
"Selentionsly discharging an imperative and
high duty, or, being malevolent, was com
mitting manslaughter or murder.
I.
The same principle is involved when pa.
Tanta me the rod punitively upon their
children. .
The most eminent , educational anthori
trei in the country are divided in opinion
as to the efficacy of whipping as a means
- either of control or reformation. Professor
Acassii., who has bad large experience as
an instructor, states that lie has never bad
occasion to strike a pupil, and thatheholds
the whole practice of whipping to be" per
nicious. Other gentlemen, equally famous
as educators, take the other view, and with
like emphasis. •

. In forming a iudgment on this head each
one is biassed by his own peculiarities. A
man who has absolute central over himself;
whose nervesuranot disturbedby ordinary
annoyances; who is well developed In hie
. intellectearpo.wers, and still better In tile
moral anti spiritual; will have little WM-
catty fn managing any number or kind of
pupils that may be entrusted to him; while
s man whose spiritual and moral develop.
went is low; whose intellect is Etiong and
cultured la its baser part rather than in its
higher; and whose animal nature Is under
no superior restraint, will find it hard to
decently Perform the functions of a teacher
to pupils of the most tractable tempera
meats and the most promising CArtabllitiCS.
NIIMall beings,
,whether as individuals:
or communities, are necessarily develop- I
. ed from the lower portions of theit us-' 1
ture towards the higher. - Development's I
simply lin - possible in any other method. I
In the lower conditions . ofsociety the phy ,
steal patiers are chiefly subject to disci,-
.pline. Thus soldiers, athletes, gladiators, I
are produced: The ideal is physical per- I
fection. Bo far as the intellectual capabil- 1
ides are put under training, it is primarily -1
for the purpose of ministering to bodily
. . necessities-7ot supplying food, clothing
and shelter. -In no nation, so far, has
general
intellectual development gone be
yond fists. Individuale . rimy, be- found,
here and there, the -higher - portion ol
whose intellects have been developed, and
for the noblest ends. They , have learned
to love the true and +ha beautiful—tiud is,
all forms of knowledge—not because they
can make them subsidiary to their personal
ends, but because they are excellent and
- lovely in thernfelves. When an individual
has reached this point, he has become a
philosopher, In. the most exalted sense. A
nation compo,sed entirely of sucit,will have
to be dreamed about a good many centu
ries yet, before it will exist. But, there
is a higher development than. the mental;
and this is the moral and spiritual. When
• a man has come to love the
right- and the good with-, supreme
affection, not because he' can make
them profitable to himself, but ,be
cease they are infinitely lovely, he be-,
cerise& a saint. When both the intelligence
and affections have this higher ecolture,
• the man becomes at once a philosopher and
saint--that is, an angel- and human nature

may find out what was thought on this
subject twentpono hundred years ago.
"Cocker thy child, and hew ma et ee
afraid; play with him, and he will bring
thee to heaviness; laugh not with him."
That surely was a savage commencement—
the banishment of all evidences of love on
th,
_te part of a father towards a child. But,
these admonitions do not end here. "Give
him no liberty in his youth. Ile that
chastisetli his sop, shall have joy in him.
Bow dawn his neck while he is young, and
beat him on the sides 'while he is a child,
leg ha 'MIX stubborn, arid be disobedient
unto thee, and so bring sorrow to thy
heart." This whipping a child in ad.
vane of tranagressiori is a trick not , yet
entirely outgrown. Can any body doubt
whether it was an age of barbarism, or at
least among barbarians, that such maxims
were remirded as the highest earthly wis
dom? This point settled, it is easy to see
to 'what period of human development the
discipline,of the rod,pertains. It does not
belong to what is called the' civilization of
the nineteenth century. But that cipres
sion is in itself ambiguous. In this nine-
teenth century we hare about all the forms
of civilization that have existed. In New
Zealand they still roast fat young women
and cat them. In Maryland when black
men commit petty larceny they sell theta
into Slavery. Hence, when people speak
Of the civilization of this century, they put
the highest forin of it for the totality. The
rod, as an instructor, is at the bottom of a
perpetually ascending scale.
There was a time when a whipping-post
WRSCeSSaZi appendage to every court
of justice, and a•flagelator was at hand to
administer savage discipline to culprits.
In penal administrations, except in some of
the demi-savage States at the South, this
country. has outgrown the whipping-post:.'
It stands on the statute books to mark.the
rudeness.of the age that tolerated it ; the
barbarism of the men who thought it a
means of grace ; and to show how fast and'
far society has marched. Shall we keep in
Lnr households and school-rooms, for ap
plication to our loved ones, this last rem
cant of the ancient torture? All the bar
barians,-who ought to have been born at
least a hundred years ago, but who mans
aged to slip past, and come down to these
times say, yes. They who .show the best
type of our current civilize lion say, no.
