IWhipping to the Otel-Thne
II
A ptblic school fifty years ago was a
'very different affair from what it is now
adays.
Upon my word, when I think of the
whipping that went on day after day in
the old /lay how Soh °id. lam astonished
at it: Yet, with - the variety of coeporal
punishment so freely bestowed. them
was mingled s sort of ghastly sportive
element, a grim humor Which did not
ocinniend itself to the perception
of him who . received the flaggellatkm.
A merry conceit, for instance, was tint
of Master Clough:
That ingenious person wank/direct a
culprit to Maul upon the platfortn, l near
_the desk, and without bending the
knees, tot* the floor with his fingers.
Then a smart flourish of the rattan and
a. sudden blow would cause the unhappy
youth to involtintarily resume an up
right position with diverting rapidity.
It was really very amusing (to Master
Clough). Sometimes an offender would
be asked by one of the masters which
instrument of torture be would choose,
the riding-whip, the ruler, or the rattan:
Whichever he. seemed to prefer was
not the one used, but one of the others
would make him smart. This little
change would have a healthful moralin
finence upon the scholar, teaching pa
tience and resignation under disappoint
ment. A pleasant illustration (to the
teacher) of the irony of fate was shown
in another way. When the stock of
iattans ran tow (and that was not sel
dom) some victim in disgrace would be
dispatched for a fresh supply. knowin :
that on his return be would feel the first
stroke of the rod. With what ingen
• ions rOnememt of torture the victim
was thus made to find the weapon that
should wound him !
There was another clever diversion
of our kind-hearted masters which in
summer, when the days sere long, oc
casionally broken the monotony of
school-bey life. Sometimes, of a sultry
July afternoon. a Aired scholar, over
come by the heat, would find the sound
of voices in the room grow fainter and
fainter, his head would droop and
finally sink upon his desk, and he would
quickly be in the pleasant land of
dreams. Then it was that the master,
seizing hie rattan end stealthily yet joy
fully striding across' the rows of desks;
would give the sleeping wretch such a
rousing whack as to astonish and con
found as well as suddenly awake him.
I confess that these diversions of the
pedagogue were not without their at.
traction for us who looked on and saw
the comical-contortions of the boys
whose for Mer-it was at the moment to
. .
be under, d is cipl in e . The fact that our
turn might come next did not prevent
us from finding what entertainment we
Might in what our master evidently en
joyed. None of us bad yet read the
maxims of the cynical La nochefou-
cauld, but we realized that under - cer
tain circumstances there*, something
in the misfortunes of our 'friends that
gives us a certain sort of satisfaction.
Those were indeed days when flog
ging was administered in no horaceps
thic doses, but with a most heroic full
ness of practice. -I once made a careful
estimate of my own experience in that
way, and came to the conclusion that I
had averaged about a whipping and a
half a day during my connection with
the Mayhew School Of course we be
came somewhat inured to this rough
treatment. It was considered the pro
per thing to suffer with Spartan firm
ness, and he who while laid across the
master's knee could calmly make col*.
cal and derisive faces from his ignomi
nious position, for the entertainment of
his associates, without having his atten
tion diverted to other parts of his body,
was accounted a brave fellow. Then
there was a superstitious belief that by
laying one's eyelash in the hand that
was about to be feruled, the accursed
wood was mire to be-ehattered on coin
ing in contact with the magic hair. • .B,nt

of the different species of wild birds
Lave not; so far as we know, been
measured, and it is difficult for us to
tiee how this pould bp . done. :Various
estimates have been made 'by different
authors, but it taus! be`'remembered
That these. are merely estimates, and
cot measarements of speed. Speaking
of the passenger - pigeon (Eclop isles

quotes Dr. Sharpless, of Philadelphia.
as saying of the same species:. 'The
swan, when migrating, with a moderate
wind in his favor, and mounted high
in the air, certainly travels at the Tate
of one hundred miles or more an hour.
I have often timed the flight of the '

A FRISCO Talcs.-:-Of the many tricks
of those who live by their wits to. take
in the unwary, the "gold nugget pin
dodge" is the most successful. This
oft-practiced game ,was played last
Saturday night upon a citizen. who has
often prided himself as being "no fool."
As be was passing „the Baldwin Hotel,
he saw a seedy,' semi-respectable
ing party, who was walking a feii 'atepti
ahead of him, atop, and, stooping, ap
pear to pick up something bright, which
when held up to light, was seen by the
citizen to be a nugget pin, evidently
solid gold, and weighing fully .one
ounce. "What a lucky find!" remark - pi
the overjoyed stranger to the citizen as
he gleefully held , it up• fo the latter's
inspection. - 'lt's worth considerable,'
continued lie, and it's a - windfall to me,
for I'm dead broke. I wish I could
sell it.' ,
'What do yen want for or asked the
tumturpeoting victim, who thought he
scented a cbanee to turn an honest
penny by a neat business stroke.
- 'Well, I don't know what it's worth.
I wish there was a pawnshop open.
Give me ten dollars and yen can have
iL' •
'Ten tiollars for a $2O nugget; too
much,' thought the victim, and then
:Can't do it,' remarked he aloud.
'Well, lam hard up. Now what
will you giver persevered the stranger,
who appeared to hesitate to . take less..
The slirewd citizen finally secured the
pin for $4.50, only , to find when he
had bier:itches° examined, that it was
a good imitation of gold, but, being
only made of brass, it was not worth, as
mud! aspie paid for it by $4.49. The
victim has cut another eye-tooth, and
now declares that he would not buy a
gold mine at any price from a stranger.

California says:—The Corwin landed
on St. Lawrence Islanf, having orders
to investigate the whole-sale starvation
of the natives. At thri first village at
which they larded all were dead; so,
also, at the second where fifty-four
dead bodies were counted, nearly all
full : grown males. At :another place
one` - hundred and fifty persona—men,
women and children—were dead. At
the next settlement twelve dead bodies
and at the following thirty were found.
All the inhabitants on the north side of
the' island, where whisky traders add
liquor,, are dead—not one escaping.
The general starvation occurred two
years ago last 'winter. Since then the
presence of the Corwin in the, Arctic
his broken up this inhuman whisky
ttading. ' The empty whisky kegs were
strewn all about. The total number of
dead bodies found on St. Lawrence
Island was dyer six hundred. The sur
vivors say that white traders from Hon
olulu sold whisky which the
.natives
'bought and got drunk, remaining so
during the season for laying in their.
winter supply of walrus and seal.
Photographs of these groups of dead
bodies, as they yet lie about, frozen
stiff, were taken.
. The Buffalo Commercial Advertiser
mentions what may be safely set down
as the worst case of spelling of recent
record. It, occurred in a !notis' of a
'sellybrasbun,'-to be held on the shores
of 'Lake Eary,' and mentioned the 6c
casion as a 'guble.' This word troubled
the editor a good deal but with rare per
spicacity he at length resolved it into
'jubilee.'
Leipsic has just celebrated the 400th
anniversary of the introduction of print-
lug into the town which is now the
great centre of German printing. The
art was introduced in 1481 by Andreas
Preisner, professor of theology. The
town now possesses 82 printing offices,
and employs 12,000 people in the vari-
OUP branches of the book trade.
