THE WHIPPING POST FOR WIFE
BEATERS.
The Times fully agress with the
Baltimore Sun that the' whipping
pest is far from edyilying. It is
very brutal, but not near so 'brutal
as wite beating. Twice Within the
last few months has Squire Francis
Smith, of Frederick, sentenced . wife
beaters to receive from the sheriff
lashes on the bare bask. Not long
agj the same measure of justice was
meted out to awileater, m Wasfr
ington county. The sheriff of Fred
erick county, before lay ing the lash
on the bade" ofsaJohn Easlebrkrht.
delivered a short sermon to the cul
prit and hopei that the correction
may ba a; warning toT him. The
whippiag-post is a most, approprate
remedy and preventive for wife
beating. To stud these scoundrels
to jj,il otto the. House of. Correction
: tj; i- slight punishment. They
cannot be hurt in their pride of
self-respeet," because they bavg none.
They are tirutes in that regard In.
deed it is almost a libel upon. brutes
to call the Avifd-beater a brute, for
we believe tke wife-beater is the
oaly animaL which 'will attack the
female of his own species- The
only way to reach the sensibilities
of wife-beaters is with the lash upon
hisbare back, well laid on. , A . bru
,4al, husky man, drunk or in a, bad
temper, comes to his home and v
vertb himself by .kicking and mauling
the helpless woman whose protec
tion- ig alsaest his . highest duty.
u. Sueh a creature cannet bj? reached
t by reason nor by any punishment
except the lash should not be spared.

lash, women would be safer Let

m The Landmar of the 26th inst.
that a poor boy was hung by the
feet,s by that detestable set, until it
caused his death a short time after
being taken down. Lest our own
boys become sueh as these, I think
weoHght to submit to rigid disci
pline in our schools.

Commenting on the above the
Statesville Landmark says, to which
the Times adds a hearty Amhn:
; It isav great pleasure to Thb
Landmark to print the above r sen-
sible and sane view of discipline in
the sehools and in the homes. The
Lakdmsk dees not pass judgment
oa the ease which suggested this
discussion- as our corresponded
dees notoit it d'oesnltv kjaow (ln
xacts. , i5ut speaaing geaeraiiy, it is
a serious matter to take the part ef
a child against school discipline for
it certainly tends to destroy the
school. It is nonsense to say that
a sohoel can be malntaiaed without
qiscipnae, ana r no - sensible person
will contead that the parnut,. whe
is not present, should be the judge
fin the matter of nunishinn -.a . child
in school. There is too little gov
ernment in the great majority of the
homes, and if insubordination is en
couraged in school children it means
that he child is taught that it should
not be' subject to any authority.' The
result is net only hazing, the strong
nere, just 10
front of the Academy, which she
hopes to occupy soon.
