Elizabeth lfalsch, charged with mal
treating Mena Messier, an account of
which we •published some time since,-
was brought' out of jail on- a ' habeas tor
.
pas, and thEi,. illscharge of the prisoner
demanaed on the' ground that ttie com
mitment was defective. The original in
formation, it is stated, was for maltreat
ment, and after the accused was commit
ted for trial it was withdrawn and an in
;formation for aggravated assault and
battery substituted. The Court declined
to-discharae the prisoner. An applica
lion was then made for a reduction of
' bail in the case, which had been fixed at
$2,000, and which defendant's counsel
held was excessive. The application was
not granted • and the prisoner was re.
mended.

Tau Aoaxigaly.—On Saturday evening,
notwithstanding • the exceedingly disa
greeable character of the weather, quite
a large and respectable audience assem
bled at the Academy of Music on the
occasion of the opening for the forth
coming season of that house as a temple..
of the legitimate drama, under the man
agement of Victor Parton, Esq. a
Mias
Jean Roamer appeared as Lucreti
Borgia, and in the portrayal of the deep
and alternatingpassions •which mark
the character of the wicked poisoner de
veloped rare power and brilliancy. She
is an actress of great genius, belonging to
'the highest school of histtionic art. The
support of the very excellent stock com
pany was.alike creditable to the mem
bers and the management. Messrs.
Bingham, Parton. Farren and Price are
all good in their lines, while the remain
der of the company, not forgetting Miss
Reignold, who is a versatile and pleas
ing actress and finished 'vocalist, will
compare farorably With any that have
graced our boards for a long while past.
To-night Miss }learner appears in a role
in which she has few rivals, as Elizabeth,
Queen of England.. We trust our read
ers will extend generous patronage to
the Academy under its present first class
management, and thus return the com
pliment paid our amusement goers by
its establisnaient in a dull season in the
atrical matters. Seats may be secured at

meat.
Da twitters of school government, teach
ers and parents are no doubt influenced
by what they believe to be the Divine
law. The teachers Inflict punishments,
- the scholars receive them, and, the
parents acquiesce-perhaps approvingly,
because they see nd remedy, or are too
indolent or indifferent to make an effort
at reform.
In the time of Moses, when idolatry was
almost universal, and the thoughts and
elections of men were immersed in evil
and abominations of the most debasing
character, there patty have been a neces
iity for a severe law to restrain the peo
ple, by operating 'on their fears, and the
law of, "eye for eye, tooth for tooth; * *
wound for wound, stripe for striPe,"
taught them that the law imposed upon
them just such cruelties as they admin
istered to others. "Cruel are the tender
mercies of the ,wicked." They were thus ,
compelled by their fears of retaliation ti q;
refrain from severe minishments. But
this severe law is not suited to the new
dispensation established by : Christ,
who taught love , for the nelghbor,
'and forgiveness, even for "seventy
times severs" , "mss' have heard' that it
bath been said; sin eye for an eye, and a
tooth for a tooth, but I say unto yon re
sist not nvil; but whosoever shall smite
thee on thy right cheek, tum i.o hirh the
other also." This abolishes the retalia
tory law.- And in another place Jesus
establishes the merciful law of "As ye
would that men should do to you, do ye
even so to them." If school teachers
would keep thisrule ever in their minds,
they would find some gentles and kind
ways in which to lead their scholars
into obedience, aria instead of hating
and fearing their.eachers, the Scholars
would yield a loving, obedienc9 to , their
commands.
But if they insist on the enforcement
of the • cruel law, "tooth for tooth, eye
for eye, wound . for wound, stripe for
stripe," then what should we look for?
Will we not find the teachers toothless,
blind, wounded and striped If they
give, then let them receive the same in
kind and quantity, and if the scholar can
not repay the debt then let the parents
pay it, and If they add a little for interest
all the better. the is ood, let it
work both ways. lf
If itrule
is not g goad both
ways it is a bad rule, and the teachers
should do their best to abolish It. Is it
not better to have scholars who will pray
for, and bless their teachers, from the
fullness of their love, than to have them
nurse and hate them, from the soreness of
their Chastisements?
Next in history we come to King §olo
mon-the wise, the Song writer, the man
who, <like Ben. 'Franklin, occupied his
leisure hours in collecting proverbs from
the smart people of his day. One of
there forms the basis for corporal pun
ishments, and Is often quoted by teach
ers, directors and parents, in justifica
tion for all their diabolical tortures of
the "innocents:: This proydrb I t i s as "Inspiration" ! Perhaps is.
but - there is no proof of it being the
Word of God. Isle more likely to have
emanated from the bottomless pit. But
,`we will examine it. "He that spare' .
his rod hateth his son; he that loveth
him chasteneth him betimes." But what
,of the daughters? WO) is to spank
them? Perhaps Mrs. Solomon had some
advice for mothers. But if it is right for
fathers to chastise the eons, by what
right do the teachers usurn that right?
It must not be forgotten that there
were no public schools in those days, and
that Solomon's advice is not to school
teachers. They must look elsewhere
for the "enabling act" and justification.
The right belongs, exclusively, to the
"other alone. As a school director I have
no control over a father's cruel actions,
and he is the person above all others who
should object to teachers assuming' his
prerogative. But directors have the
light to prevent teachers from exercising
a power that should never be - delegated
to them, and which they are too ready to
assume. Spare the child and hate 1
the rod would be better. . ' But are-,
the daughters to escape unspanked, en
tirely? What lathe teacher to do , with
them? Solomon evidently had a weak-
ness for; the daughters-his song is an
evidence of that fact.
What a sense of refinement one ex
periedbes, as he considers this tender
