i THE LASH IN DELAWARE. HowfH Has Been Esed la the Past. A recent tetter from Wilmington, Del., to the Philadelphia ’Times says: The whipping poet in the New Castle mil yard had seven victims yesterday. Three boys, who had stolen something like ^16, got ten lashes apiece. Twenty lashes were applied to the backs of four other prisoners who had been convicted of larceny. Sheriff Clark did net handle the cat in a particularly forcible man- ner, and the men who were strung up in the pillory didn’t seem to miud the blows much. The whipping post has greatly degenerated in late years. There was a time when it was applied indis criminately to thieves and felons of high and low degree. Now it is mainly used as a sort of scarecrow for chicken thieves, sneak thieves and errant tramps hnown as “ peach-plucks. There are Delawareans living in this city who re member, as children or youths, a time when some of the Blue Hen’s most re spectable chickens were put in the pen known as the pillory and made to ex piate their offenses against law asd morality by a forced embrace of the whipping post. As a ciiiid the writer remembers hav ing seen men who, af^er being whipped, were by law compelled to wear the letter “ F” (Felon) over the backs of their coets as long as they remained within the boundaries of * the State, Other people, a little older, will recol lect how in Dover a man who had b^en a prominent church member and most highly respectable citizen for some act of dishonesty was publicly whipped and condemned, to wear the stigma of di?» grace, the letter “E,” as long as he lived, or to abandon his home and busi ness and take up his abode in another State. He resolved to stay where his interests and affections inclined him to remain. Although he was a storekeeper and hie occupation necessitated his con stant appearance in public, he attended to his busines-' in person, and it is said by those who frequented his store as purchasers that he had his stock so ar ranged and was so adroit in his move ments that no one ever caught a sight of the badge of his disgrace while being waited, on by him. In theohMime, when Delaware was more rigid in her righteousness than she is to-day, it was held by those who made and those who administered the laws that dishonesty was much more heinous when engaged in by those placed by social position above want and amid respectable sur roundings than when indulged in by those tempted by necessity and evil com panionship. Consequently, when a prominent citizen was caught stealing or forging his punishment was always made heavier and more severe than that racted out to rogues of either of the classes contemptuously known as “poor whites” or “free niggers.” In fact, a Lalf-eentury ago so large a proportion of the criminals punished by whipping W4s of the respectable class of society that a lady on vkiting Delawate some years ago, having heard that this, that, and the other distinguished citizen was the descendant of some one who had been publicly whipped, asked: “Do not all the aristocrats of Delaware derive their patents of nobility from the whip ping post ?” Toward the close of the last century an eminent and well-beloved gentleman of Sussex county, a public benefactor, distinguished for piety, fell from his high estate. He was a magistrate, and noted for wisdom and excellence of judgment. On one occasion there was brought before him in his oflicial ca pacity some counterfeiters who had been arrested for passing bad money, a large amount of which was found upon their persons. The magistrate, as was ■ L.,, L»ulP 1JIJJIHllUJWlPWPWfaiWBI came into his place, and after they were gone he missed a bundle of gloves. He followed them up the street, called a constable, had them arrested, searched, and would have had them committed to jail as common thieves bad not bail been promptly offered by a score of citizens for their appearance to answer the charge at court. Now begar. the tug of war. It was known that If the case came to trial the young ladies would be sentenced to be whipped and that this sentence would not be remitted by the governor, who was one of the sternly righteous men who believed his position demands 1 of him the exaction of the sentence pronounced by law, nave in case of after-discovered exculpating evidence. The only thing left for the afflicted father, who bad already beer much impoverished through the pecu lations of his family, was to buy the prosecutor off. This he did, and re duced himself to almost absolute want by complying with the demands made epon him. The father never recovered from this public disgrace and died soon after. The daughters, however, who never seemed to understand that they had been guilty of any criminali ty, held up their heads bravely, and all married well. Some of them are living to-day, beloved wives and good mothers, who, under the very shadow of the whipping post, it is said, get their dry goods and other merchandise in the old fashion, while husbands or sons pay up, just as their father did. Bathing”in the Great Salt Lake. After looking at the water for a little the next step was of coarse to get into It. The Mormons and Gentiles of Salt Lake City make good use of their lake for bathing purposes. At convenient points they have thrown out wooden piers provided with dressing-rooms and hot water apparatus. Betaking ourselves to on - of these erectioas my companions and I were soon fitted out iu bathing costumes of approved pattern, and descending into the lake at once realized the heaviness of the water. In walking the leg that is lifted iff the bottom seems somewhat bent on rising to the surface, and some exertion is needed to force it down again to the mud below. One suddenly feels top-heavy, and seems to need special care not to turn feet upward. The extreme shallowness of the lake is also soon noticed. We found our selves at first over the knees, so we pro ceeded to match inte the lake. After a long journey, so 1 ng that it seemed we ought to be almost out of sight of shore, we were scarcely up to the waist. At its deepest part the lake is not more than about fifty feet in depth. Yet it measures eighty miles iu length, by about thirty-two miles in breadth. We made some experiments in flotation, but always with the uncomfortable feeling that our bodies were not properly bal lasted for such water, and that we might roll over or turn round head downward at any moment. It is quite possible to float in a sitting postuj^s with the hands brought round the knees. As one of the risks of these experi ments, moreover, the water would now and then get into our eyes, or any half- healed wound which the blazing sun of the previous weeks had inflicted upon our faces. So rapid is the evaporation in the dry air of this region that the skin after being wetted is almost imme- diatelv crusted with salt. 1 noticed too that the wooden steps leading up the pier were hung with slerder stalac tites of salt from tire drip of the bathers. After being pickled in this fashion we had the luxury of washing the salt crust off with the douche of the hot water wherewith every dressing-room is pro vided.—Professor Geikic. Prison Life in Sing Sing. “ We have a great deal of trouble with prisoners in consequence of their stealing,” said Warden Brash, of Sing Sing, to a reporter recently, a? he sat in his office in the prison at Sing Sing. •They take to it naturally and per petually. and it is not for fun, but for the simple satisfaction of getting pos session of some other person’s proper ty. It may be that they are afraid they’ll lose the knack if they don’t practice it here. They steal each other’s shirts and towels and shoes, if they get a chance. They will make more of an opportunity than you can possibly imagine. When the men are given clean shirts they have to be watched with eagle eye or the keeper will find himself ‘out’ a dozen or more gar ments.” “Yes,” remarked Keeper Fury, “I have to put my foot ou the dirty ones as fast as they are changed, and deal out the clean ones, otie at a time very carefully; and even then I am liable to lose a shirt or two. The other day I allowed a man who is ‘square’and all right to go into the middle mess-room to change his shirt. He laid the clean shirt down at his feet and was just pulling the soiled one over his head, when, quick as a flash, one of the con victs whipped up the clean garment, and it was gone when the fellow’s head came out from the shirt. The garment was found afterward ‘planted’ iu an out of the way place. They always ‘plant’ or hide anything they steal, until a more convenient season, expect ing perhaps that they will get away with it when their time is up.” “Mr. Fury had an interesting experi ence some time since in the egg trade,” the^warden went on, drily. “The men are allowed a good supply of eggs daily. On this occasion several of them saved the shells carefully and filled them with potato. They then sent them back and complained that the eggs were rotten. They managed to get about twenty extra eggs that time.” “That happened only once,” the mess-room keeper replied quickly. •‘Ihey did not eatch me in that way again.” “ It is really remarkable, though, what an almost insane propensity the men have for stealing,’’ Mr. Brush said further. “ I took a fancy to a colored boy who was sent up here for a couple of years, and made him my waiter. On the very first day what did the fellow do but steal the soup ! He might have had all ho wanted : but no, ho must steal it or ho wouldn’t bo happy. Wo had a fellow here who was in for five years, who ought to have been in an asylum for idiots; He would walk along by the tables and steal everything and anything he could lay hands on, cups, knives or anything else. He was sentenced in New York because he went up to a baker’s window, thrust his hand through the glass, took out a pie and went on eating it iu the open street. A policeman came along and arrested him, and he was sent up here. He had been at Blackwell’s Island before, and he supposed he was there all the while he was here. Some of the keepers liked him and taught him a good deal for a fool—the prisoner, I mean.” ITALY’S NATIONAL DISH. The Modaa Operand! of Macaroni Making and Eating—Eacoarh Wars af Living Among the Komano. A Rome (Italy) letter says: Yester day, after a good dish of macaroni, cooked as only my landlady knows how to cook it, I suddenly bethought me to write a letter on Italy’s national dish. We will first begin by preparing the meat for it—»s this may be eaten by itself even if no macaroni be added to it. This way of cooking meat is called umido in Rome, which means moist. In the English language it would perhape be called stew. I will give the direc tions for one pound of meat, which can be increased in quantity according to necessity. The meat taken must be a square off the rump of beef without a morsel of fat. The ingredients are. therefore: One par id of ramp of oeef, without fat or bone; one ounce of the fat of bacon, such as is nsed for larding meat in general; one ounce of butter ; one ounce of tomato paste; a bunch of mixed herb 0 (a leaf of each suffmient); one large onion; (some persons add a grain of garlic, but it is qnito as good if not better without it); a wine-glass of wine (dregs of port wine- end of bottle, etc). Having procured the necessary in gredients take the fat of bacon and beat it into a paste (in a mortar) together with the herbs; then pour this paste into a saucepan, and over this the but ter and over that the meat, and over this the onion ent into shreds, and over all a sprinkling of salt and pep per. Then put the saucepan on advocates lawyers, government officials (doctors, etc. The fact is that instead of spending their money in making their homes comfortable, they spend it at coffee bouses and other places of amusements not shared by the women; and the i women, left so mnch alone, feel no en couragement to embellish their houses in which their husbands so rarely s ay. Instead of embellishing their homes they embellish themselves iu order to attract admiration when they appear iu public. A home is yet unknown in Italy, both by husbands and wives; nevertheless they are very hospitable, and if you are ' not sophisticated about table linen, knives, forks, glass and crockery, you may be a daily guest among your friends i or acquaintances here. You will always be welcome, for no people share more gladly the little they have with a friend than do Italians, and macaroni and umido are their most favorite dishes, and as they are far nicer than French boeufa la mode, I repeat that I am sure my lady readers will thank me for a genuine household receipt not found perhaps in any international cookery book yet written. A Hardy Chinese Tirate. In the village of Wang Ye, in the district Ning Li, which is near Ningpo and the Chusan isles, so renowned for piratical exploits, stands the castle of a pirate chief named Kwang-king-man. He is head of a strong nest of pirates, and he styles himself King of King- thfe ' man > which signifies the King of Gold. tire and leave it there to boil in its own fat. without a drop of any other liquid, m 1 the meat is well browned and the ouii is reduced to a paste like 4he bacon fat and butter. Then add a wineglass ot wine and again leave to boil, until the wine is well amalga mated with the rest. Then melt the tomato paste in a little water or stock, and pour this over the meat, and then leave all to simmer for a couple of hours. That is all. It does not seem very difficult, nor is it, if you follow the di rections to the letter. Of course, during the early part of the process, until the simmering begins, for instance, you must watch that the meat or bacon fat, etc., does not burn. After the tomato paste is put in all may be left to sim mer, there is no fear, and you may take a walk, if you will, and nothing will spoil during your absence. When you eat this dish without mac Kwang king-man is a native of Ningpo of the Ninghi district. He is an unusu ally powerful man, and can lift with ease weights more fitted for a Milo than an ordinary man He is proficient in the use of all warlike weapons and can use the rifle as well as the bow and arrow with equal and remarkable effect. It happened while >Kwang-king-man was acting as a “brave” that his father : was arrested by the government for some offense and shortly afterward be- : headed. Kwang-king-man, who de clared his father innocent of the crime imputed to him, was so onraged at his execution that he swore to devote his ! life to avenge his death and take re- | venge on the imperialists. He shortly put the design into execution. He es tablished a rendezvous and stronghold and gathered around him a large number ! of followers. His arsenal was made com plete and a factory for gunpowder was es- terfeit stuff to destroy it, it was sup posed. The i ogues were committed for trial and subsequently pilloried and whipped. Years afterward the neigh borhood was flooded with “ bogus money,” at length traced to the “squire” who had committed the culprits alluded to, and who, it was afterward discovered, had been for a long time passing ihe money he had confiscated for destruc tion. Every effort was made to shield this beloved and respected citizen from the consequences of his offense, but with out any avail whatever. Ho was whipped most severely in the jailyard at Dover, and the sheriff who inflicted the punish ment was so fearful that ho might be accused of partiality for a rich and re spectable criminal, that he cut so deeply into the flesh as to cause the blood to run off the end of the lash and down his cwn hands, while the back of the unfortunate offender was a sight on which the most stoical could not look without horror and pity. Some thirty- five years .ago a well-known and very able politician of Wilmington lau for Congress, and came within three votes of being elected. He spent more money than ho could afford, and in order to tide over a temporary embarrassment, forged the indorsement of his brother- in-law, a distinguished physician of tho City, to a note given by him, intending to take i' up before it came to maturity and so escape any bad consequences. He was not on good terms with the brother-in-law, and this the teller of the bank at which the note was pre sented for discount knew. It was there fore retained until the matter could be inquired into. The teller took occasion speedily to see .he doctor, andsaid.sud- deuly: “Why, you have made your quarrel up with J— and have com menced indorsing for him, eh ?” “ I have done nothing of the soit,” said the doctor, who was thrown off his guard, and who, for family reasons, ; would have cut Iris tongue out before ' giving his relative away, had he taken i time to think before speaking. His after attempts to hush up ih« matter were without avail. Political « pponents of the unfortunate caquit got hold of the story, aud he was indicted, tried, and , found guilty of the crime of forging, and sentenced to be whipp si. That he would have been so punished there is ! no doubt had not Lis lovely and loving wife gone to the governor and to the governor’s wife, and so wrought upon ; the sympathies cf both as to secure his , pardon. But from that time forth he | was politically and socially dead. Auioig the most beautifu,, highly cultured and charming women of the i St ite st me : hit tv-nine ytars ago were tho four daughters of a high officer who had had the misfortune to bo born kleptomaniacs. It was well known to 1 alt the citizens of the town in which i they resided that they had inherited ; this mania from their mother, who was a constitutional thief. These girls would take anything they could lay 1 their hands on. from mouse-traps to fish ing tackle. The acquisitions made in ! this way were, in nine cases out of ten, ( wholly useless aud worthless to them. Their father, knowing this propensity j of his wife and offspring, visited the different storekeepers of the town and requested them to send the bill to him for any article they might miss after visits from the female members of his family. There was, therefore, no par ticular trouble about the peculations of these young ladies until a new store keeper came to town, who, on receiving the usual intimation from their father, said to some of his neighbors: “Klepto mania be hanged ; it’s nothing but thief- omania, and if they were poor women they would have it thrashed out of them at the whipping post. If they come into my store to do any stealing I’ll have them arrested and whipped as quick as if they were chicken thieves.” No one believed the fellow would carry out his threat, but he did. Two of the sisters Ohio Girls Who Gamble. “Talk about gambling!” said a young mau well known in society. “ The gills of this city are coming right along. I know five young ladies, three of them live on Prospect, one on Euclid, and the last on Clinton street, who can play just as hard games of poker, exeicise as good judgment in betting on cards, and understand the rela’ive value of hands precisely as well as any five young men 1 could name.” “ Are those the only ones you know of who wrestle with fortune?” “No. I know hundreds,” replied the extravagant young man; “the ones I mentioned are the best, the most scien tific players.” , The reporter made inquiry, ami found that gambling is more "or less cultivated and practiced by the fair ones. The manner and freedom with which one beautiful little creature reeled off column after column of tho rules and laws of poker, and the values of “ pairs,” “ triplets,” “ flushes,’’ “a full house,” “ four of a kind” and catchiugher breath,vouchsafe the statement that “straights don’t count,” would Lave done credit to General Sehenck. One young lady took occasion to ex plain that they do not call it gam bling, because the only game which prevails is one cent ante, and that the only reason they use money is because the game is so frightfully uninteresting unless there is a financial question, however small, involved. It was ad mitted that penny ante frequently re sulted in temporary embarrassment, the informant herself knowing how it feeis to “go broke.” Oue devotee modestly i proclaimed herself to bo “ way ahead of tho game,” and asserted that she had | no end of handkerchiefs, gloves and ; perfumery, the result of her goed judg ment. The best record, as far as could ! be ascertained, was made by a Woodland avenue gifl, who realized between $11 and $12 from a party of friends.— Cler< (dud Lender. The Future of the Mormon System, In the Century the “Legal Aspects ol the Mormon Problem ” are discussed by Arthur G. Sedgwick, who concludes as follows: The failure of tho attempt to break up the Mormon system by congres sional legislation does not by any means show that the Mormon system will ultimately prevail in Utah. The operation of natural causes is certain in the long run to sap the foundations of polygamy. The railioads have al- rea4v hr aught the Tariincv into corq-l In The Lost CfcllU. Uvalde, Texas, the little three- year-old daughter of Mr. Sam Johnson, living on the Sibinal, wandered off after flowers. Its absence attracted attention before it had been gone an hour aud the family began to look for it, but not finding it on the place at once roused their neighbors to assist in the search. Califo-nia Brown, who had stopped over n : ght in the place, Ben White, Henry Shane, several Mexicans aud the distressed parents hunted all that day and night, and at about 1 o’clock on the next day the dim t.ack of the child’s shoe was discovered by the practiced eye of Mr. Brown. The party, bouyant with hope, followed the trail with great difficulty until night, when fires were built up in the hope of attracting her attention. Ou Friday morning the search was resumed aud fresh tracks found, which were followed by Mr. Brown, Mr. Shane and a Mexi- an, the rest of the party having divided and keeping up the search in different directions. About 10 o’clock the little ore was discovered on a high hill by a hole of water, three and a half munication with the rest of the country, and the development of the mines must ultimately bring in a large Gentile pop ulation—almost altogether male. A strong tendency in the direction of marriages between Gentile men and the daughters of Mormon parents must spring up. Indeed, this is said to show itself already. There is no surplus of women in tho West from which to re cruit polygamous households; the births of the two sexes .^re always very nearly equal, and the Mormon popula tion is no longer being rapidly in creased from abroad, as it was in the times of the early persecution of the church. It is now stationary, or nearly so, and being rapidly hemmed in by a community having a social system which all experience shows is the only one permanently adapted to modern industrial life. As tho Territory fills up and the Mor mons are brought more and more into relations with the rest of the world, one of the strongest internal causes of disintegration will unquestionably be the sense of shame operating upon the younger female generation. In the natural course of things some of the daughters of Mormon householders must marry Gentiles, and others, who do not marry outside tho church, will be made keenly aware that they are surrounded by a community which re gards their position as a degraded one. As long as they could keep themselves separated from the rest of the world this Gentile feeling was of little conse quence to them. It did not affect them in their daily life; it was something re mote from them which they did not even need to disregard. Ti is cannot continue forever, and indeed a change must begin if it has not begun already, as soon as the surrounding monogamic Gentile system of marriage has a fa>r opportunity to enter into competition with its rival. Under these circum stances there is nothing to be done with the Mormons but to let them alone. Persecution has been tried and has only served tc strengthen and in crease them. Law has been tried and has proved of no avail, because it has not been enforced. From the circum stances of the case it cannot be. aroni you mav add a few small or cut . tabhshed On the third day of the S.xth potatoes to the gravy.

Mind that tho saucepan is very large in which you boil the macaroni, as it swells like rice in boiling, and have boiling water ready to fill in, a^ the macaroni absorbs the water.

Sciatica Rheumatism, Kidney Complaint. McGbeoob, Iowa, November 11,1878. Mr. H. R. Stevens: Dear Sir—About the 1st of November, 1875, I was attacked with what is termed SckUica Kh^uruntixm, commencing in the hip. joint and extending to my ankles, which at times was very painful, causing lameness and preventing sleep at night, and at times preventing me from labor of any kind. After applying different remedies of almost every kind recommended, I could get no relief. 1 then com menced using your Veoetine about the 1st of March last, aud have continued to use it until tho present time. Now I have no symptoms of the rheumatism left, in fact I think myself entirely cure-i. My ago is sixty-five years. I therefore take great pleasure in recommending it to all who may be afflicted with this terrible disease. I have been troubled with Kidney Complaint for several years. Since taking the Veoetine 1 am com pletely cured of tho Kidney Complaint. To any j>er- son suffering as I have, every drop of this good medi cine is more valuable than its weight in gold. Yours truly, ALONZO COLE. I know this man to be a truthful, reliable mu. H. E. NEW ALL, Druggist, Main street. Hat-» IVot Its Equal. LUNG DISEASE. Selma, Ala., May 12, 1872. H. It.
