Inhuman,Treatment of a Child
The inhuman treatment received by a
child, thirteen years old, named Enuicel
Williams, at the hands of her father,
Chas. C. Williamshas thrown Norwich,
Conn., into something of =excitement I
About seven o'clock, Thursday morn
ing some of the neighbors saw the girl
decending from a third-story window,
by means of a rope made of sheets tied
together. When part the way down
the 4obe broke, and she fell to the
ground, bruising herself -somewhat. i
She called eagerly for water, and when
it was given her, she thank with such
avidity as to astonish the beholders.
She stated that she had keen without
food or drink for forty-eight hour , . She
was takettintoller father's horse, when
Mr Williams apPeared and ordered the
gentlemen who carried her to leave the
premises. Selectman Case wa , :.
and the child was taken ton neighbor's.
From the child'i stoo - and her fath
er's own admissions„ we learn from
the Norwich Bulletin, it seems that for
three weeks she has been contined to a
room, part of the time in a closet some
eight feetlong by two wide, with no
food but one bowl of water gruel per
day, and that for forty-eight hours she
bad been without food or drink of any
kind whatever, and forbidden to speak
to her father. - Almost starved, thepoor
child made the attempt to escape which
resulted in her deliverance. Her story
is borne out by her physicial appearance,
she having beets reduced from a bloom
ing. healthy child to a mere skeleton,
while on her feet are chilblains that the
doctor pronounced the worst he had
ever seen. She had on nothing but
thin night clothes when she escaped.
Ur. Williams' justification of himself
was that he was determined to break
her spirit, as she was stubborn and
would not work with alacrity. Thurs
day evening a mob of some 200 persons
vieited Williams's hope, and battered
lad not): down, whereupon Williams ap
peared iu the entry armed with au ax
for the purpose- of self defense. The
crowd commenced an assault upon him,
when he rushed out of the house—hay-
Inc first received a severe blow under
they eye from a club—and took refuge
in the store of Sherman & Dennison.
The crowd ,nursued, and affairs were
looking squally for Williams, who was
atternoting to defend himself with the
when - Selectman Case and others
interfei . ?d, andaftersotne expostulation,
induced the crowd to retire. Subse
quently Williams and his housekeeper
were taken into custody on a complaint
for breaking the pea* and put in charge
of the police. A legal investigation of
the whole affair w.lll , bc commenced at

10HOGL FOR BAD lIANITERI
We reg . ' Et to say that Cengrs is be
coming very careless ih the inathir of
deportment. Turveydr4 seems to have
dropped cut of that ,select body. We
hear' once snore the-resonant snap of
the old negro whip, echoing along the
vaulted corridors of the Capital. - We
begin to open the Tribune with fear and
trembling, expectant of come sanguin
ary, relation , of Congressional encount
ers:du which there is wont to be a very
great escapade of gas and noise, and not
much more blood than follows the tra
ditional thorn which lurks under the
attractive rose.
But we \vete nut prepared for the
startling nen, which reached us last
week, to the effect that Mr. Cooper, of
the reconstructed State of Tennessee,
whilotu private 'Secretary of Andrew
Johnson, had embraced the opportunity
to call Mir. : :Kelley, of this State, A LIAR.
The factt appear to he these : Judge
Kelley, inithe course of his remarks on
Reconstruction, alluded to the Presi
dent as an - usurper. Whereupon, the
knightly Cooper, who, having carried
the President's messages, and drunk
the President's whiskey with religious
freedom
,for so much a year, conceived
himself to be insulted; and at once
arose and pronounced Kelley a liar.
There was considerable confusion, as
there 'should ho 'on such occasions, and
as there always is,iu the House, liar or
no liar; ausl the_s4nesar4l£%-a`ver7-'—'
• We are not informed as to whether
Kelley invited Cotiper to sup on galena
dumplings and coffee. Probably he did
not. Mr. Cooper. like every man who
cries liar on small occasions, in Con
gress or out of it, is a very great cow
ard. He would shine in a fight with
empty bottles at a bacchanal; but as
for any other sort of fighting, unless it
'be " fighting the tiger," you can count
Mr. Cooper out.
Why that gentleman was not taken
by the two shoulders -by the Sergeant
at-arms, and gently ejected from the
Hall, we do not exactly understand.
Perhaps that is not the way to dispose
of such cases. We recollect several ca
ses much like it, in both - wings of the
Capitol, and in none of them was re
sort had to the friendly offieesof that
functionary. TWA would be '9lO most
effective mode of dealing with Con
gressional rowdies; in our opinion; for,
once let every Congressman whoforgets
that Vela not in a bar-room, be inconti
nently Conducted to the cooler precincts
of the l guard-room in the crypt, and the
Coopers, Hunterit, and Saulaburys who
afflict the Capitol, will soon become as
harmless as sucking doves.
Though such shameful breaches of
decorum were common enough before
Congress was purged of its Southern
chaff, we were not prepared to 'hear of
another like occurrence following so
closely upon the heel. of this as the
very next day. Sueh is th! fact, how
ever. The day following, Mr. Ashley,
of Ohio, one of the most genial and
well-bred men in the world, In speak
ing on Reconstruetlion, took occasion to
rebuke all who sympathized with the
rebellion, either by counsel and encour
agement, resistance to drafts, encourag
ing deseitions, Slid' who as legislators
refused to vote wen and money to sup
press the rebellion. Upon this, Mr.
Hunter, of New York, denounced Mr.
Ashley as a base slanderer.
Now, Mr. Ashley did not allude to
any Wall in particular in his remarks.
But Mr. Hbuter is a modern democrat,
and no allusion can lie made to rebel
sympatiiiier , , without hitting that sort
of a democrat pretty Nuttr4ly in the

What we intendto urge is thin That
the men who are forward to bandy, tire_
lie during the .sessioris of Congress, are
unfit to legislate' for an intelligent peon
ple. When they stand lu the corridors'
of the Capitol, or in bar-rooms, or in
houses of ill-fame, we should say that
they are privileged to bandy the lie to
the fill of their taste. But the Halls of
Congress were not intended for such ex
hibitioue. As one of the people to
whom the Capitol belongs, we object to
the practice. We own as much of that
ediiiceas either of the belligerent gen—
tlemen who have so disgraced it, and"
disgusted inankiud,
We return to the question of Finance
but to reiterate our last week's affirma
tion, that a financial crash cannot re
sult from anyaxisting inflation of the
currency, unless invited, or forced.
When, we ask, has the paper curren
cy of this coubtry represented par val
ue in gold ? At no time within our
,memory, and probably not at any time
within fifty years. The circulation of
the old State banks represented, not the
coin in their vaults, but the solvency of
banking corporations, only: Everyone
must be aware that PenriayAvanial?anks
commonly kept afloat from, two to three
times any promises to pay as they
could redeemed; at any one time.
The system was based upon the suppo
sition that bank issues would flow back
to the banks regularly, within stated
periods, thus, bringing the maximum
redemption within the ability of the
banks. This was really banking under
an uncertain law of trade.
The plan of securing the circulation
of banks ljy Public Stocks originated in'
the State Of New York, and once estab
lished. made New York currency credit
everywhere. New York banks weath
ered the storm of 1857 without material
damage. So long as the State was good
the holders of hank notes were-safe.
- The National Bank System is sub
stantially the same. The circulation of
the National banks is secured by the
deposit of United States securities with
the Comptroller of the Currency. By
this arrangement noteholders are se
cure against materittiloss while the in
tegrity of the Government shall be
maintained. The notes of such .banks
are redeemable in Greenbacks ; hut who
presents National Bank notes for re
demption? Who does not know that
such notes are just as good 4 as Green
backs?
Now we maintain, that there can be
no great financial crisis while the paper
money of the country is not more in
excess of business needs than it is to
day, and public faith in public credit is
not rashly shaken. The bill introduced
by Mr. Randall, to wind up the Nation
al Banks and convert the Government
into ahuge banking institution, is cal
culated and intended for the overthrow
of public confidence. It aims at the
stability of business relations, and pro
poses to reestablish a condition which
the National Bank System was created
to destroy. It is hardly possible that
the bill can become a law ; but if Con
bill, those whofoie Tot it - c , e - tA;
hold political daylight again during the
present century.
It is objected to the present system
that the notes do not return for redemp
tion, that there is no healthy current,
therefore, and that the currency stag
nates. Where is the evidence of this
stagnation? Not In the channels of
legitimate business, certainly; but we
hear of some break-ups in Wall Street,
that spawning place of false values;
there are symptoms of stagnation in
the sloughs of sptculation, for •which
Heave pt be praised When death over
takes stock' gamblers life dawns anew
upon the legitimate business world.
But the projectors of this raid upon
the National Banking system are am
bitious of Jacksonian faMe. We have
not, and never since reading the politi
oal history of that time have had, any
admiration for the financial sagacity of
AndrewJaekson. However viciousthe
Banking system which he rashly de
stroyed may have been, it was doomed
by his malignant hatred of men, and
not by his desire to uproot a vicious
system. Had Jackson been a statesman
of liberal views instead of what he was
—a political bigot—the year 1837 would
not now be remembered as a year of ru
in and financial desolation. The Uni
ted States Bank might have been put
out of the way without panic or ruin.
We understand well enough that this
is heresy; but we were born under the
reign of Andrew Jackson, brought
up to hurrah for him, and only quit the
business after opservi iig the saint iu the
light of impartial history.
There is a prospect that Congress will

that the lied of the River in• the Town

and save the expense of building two
bridges.
The first section provides that John
Maynard, Charles Buckley, and Mor
gan Seeley, be Commissioners to exam
ine the river bed in Deerfield, and if in
their opinion itshould be changed, they
are empowered to let the job of chang
ing the bed of the river. They ure au
