Crime -110w to Punish It—
Views of Ex-Governok. Sey-
mour.
While Governor of New York State,
I learned that the suffering for crime,
as a rule, fell not upon the offender, but
upon his family. When I looked over
our penal laws, their title, to my mind,
read between their lines, "Acts to pun-
ish wives and -children of those who
violate their terms." I was constantly
appealed to to pardon convicts for these
reasons, and in some cases by the wives
of those who made the complaints upon
which the wrong -doer was convicted.
When this was told, to them, their an-
swer was, that while that was true, yet
when the husbands were in jail, where -
they were fed and warmed, their wives
and children were left to starve and
freeze for want of support.
- There is no perfect way of dealing
with crime, but there is no worse way
than the system of this State. Some
years ago a leading lawyer of New York
travelled through Egypt. He met the
chief of a wandering tribe of the desert,
and among other things he told this
-wild ruler of our laws and. the way we
dealt with crime. He was heard with
astonishment, and for the first time he
himself was struck with their absurdi-
ties. After his return he used to say
that he was never so thoroughly asham-
ed of his country as when he was tell-
ing his simple-minded auditor what
laws we had upon these subjects and
how they were enforced.
While we may not frame perfect sys-
tems, much can be done to make a bet-
ter state of things -t� simplify justice,
and to break up the tendency to disor-
derly conduct and to vagrancy. - We
cannot hope to make any marked im-
provement in •our jails. Each county
must have one, and its population will
determine the character of its place of
. confinement. Those in charge of them
will be frequently, changed, and, save
in the large cities, the number and char-
acter of the inmate
classificatiOn, etc.
The first change
will allow our judg
ments other than s
to those common sc
will not admit of
hen ld be one that
s to impose pupish-
nding the offenders
pools of vice.
As nothing can be worse than our
present laws, there Can be no harm in
trying new plans. We must have jails.
as there are cases when the safety of
society makes it necessary to lock men
up. • But, as a rule, other restraints can
be used which will check, not teach,
crime. Our laws only allow two pun:a
ishments to be inflicted for minor of- '
fences2--fines or imprisonments—and
these must be imposed without regard
to age, sex, condition or circumstances.
The law demands these, it matters not
•what moral or material mischief they
may do. As a rule, fines inflict dis4'
tress on families and friends, whilejails
are a gateway to a course of wickedness
which leads to the State prisons. For
these reasons no punishments are in-
flicted until the offenders have groWn
into hardened criminals, who excite no
sympathy. There is no power to deal
in a right way with the: first step in
crime, with acts of mingled error and
wrong -doing. It has been my duty to
look into,a, great number of such cases,
and I have given much thought and
study to our statutes in regard to them.
Next to moral and religious influences,
we must rely upon the wisdom of our
laws with regard to youthful offenders.
It is comparatively an easy matter to
deal with grave crimes.
The first step toward reform is to give_
magistrates a right, within certain
lim-
its, to direct such punishments as they
shall see are best fitted to reform wrong
doers. They have all the facts before
them, and best know what is just and
right in each ease. This will not , give
them undue powers, but ips ,wiu 'take
away pretexts for not doing their duty.
Now, they must fine, or •imprison, or
discharge._ In many cases either of
these courses is unsuitable, and many
wrong -doers go free, for to enforce law
,would only make things worse.
This state of things is full of levil. If
magistrates could bind them out to do
work, ordirect the minois to be chas-
tised by parents or guardians or suitable
persons, many would. be saved from the
moral leprosy which infects our jails.
Such or like punishments would be in-
ilicted, and there would be no excuse
for letting offenders escape. I
Magistrates should have, in .addition
to their present powers, the same right
of control over vagrants, disorderly per-
sons and habitual offenders, which par-
ents or guardians have over their chil-
dren or wards. The fact that they be-
long to these classes should be judicialy
decided after a certain number of con-
victions. When they are thus enrolled
in these classes, they should have no
right to vote at any election. As our
laws now stand, notorious offenders who
do no honest work, who can only live
in immoral ways, are held to be inno-
cent -persons, when they are arrested,
until the formal, technical and some-
times expensive proofs are furnished
that they are guilty of practices which
there is a moral certainty they indulge
in. This is right when they are accus-
ad of grave crimes. But there is' no
hardship in putting such persons into
the state of wardship in which the law
places all persons who are under the age
of 21 years, or who are afflicted with
disordered minds. Should disorderly
morals be more leniently dealt with than
disordered intellects?
There is no clanger in giving magis-
trates the power over habitual offenders
which parents and guardians have over
minors—that of making them work, of
binding them out and of locking them
up ; and, in the case of children, have
them chastised rather than sent to jails.
Them is no reason to fear that this pun-
ishment will be used too often or too
harshly. It would rarely be applied,
but should not be made illegal, as it
would give naagistrates great control,
and would do much to put an end to
the bravado and swagger of disorderly
boys which are so much admired by
their weak or youthful companions.
Simple Remedies for Warts.
(1) Take cobvkb ; roll it into a pill
the size of the wart. Place the cobweb
pill on the wart. Take a match and
light the cobweb pill. It will bum
clear like charcoal. When the pill is
consumed the wart can be picked out
with the finger. (2) Take good indigo
and soak it in water ; pare away the
surface of the wart so as to cause the
blood to flow ; wipe off the blood and
drop the indigo water upon it. Very
large ones may require a second ap-
plication. The indigo produces no
pain. (3) One of my neighbors had.
his horse's nose covered with small
warts, and tried many different means
to remove them, but could not do so,
until 'some one said to him: " 'Why
don't you try treacle ?° This was tried,
and the warts after being dressed a very
few times, were completely removed in
a few weeks. (4) Take ashes made
from burnt willow bark, mix with sweet
cider, and apply several times, an they
will soon disappear. (5) Use a trong
solution of alum several times a day,
and 'let it dry on. If that doe not
cure, use sal soda in the same wa . )6)
Lunar caustic, carefully applied so as
not to touch the skin, will surel y de-
stroy warts, (7) Oil of cinnamon, drop-
ped. on the warts three or four t. es a
day, will cause their disappe: since,
however hard, large or dense the 3 may
be. The application gives rise to
neither pain nor suppuration an is a
pleasant perfume. I removed ov r two
dozen from my hand with five cents
worth of oil:— Various Sources.
Salt in. Agriculture.
1
Few persons realize the value 01 salt
in agricultural.). operations. In large
doses it is of course an injury,destr.ying
everything vegetable it comes int. con-
tact with. In heavy soil it is al o an
injury, as the tendency is to m: e it
still heavier, and ,thus whatever g od it
might have in one respect is outwe ghed
Ly the other. But in light sandy oils,
or those elevated -tracts of land not wet,
but which are liable to become d
summer -time, it has been found o! the
greatest benefit, and this - chiefly oi aka
count of the property it has of ab orb--
ing moisture from the earth i dry
weather. It is for this perhaps as I I uch
as for any chemical quality th t it
proves so beneficial in these cases. su-
ally wheat does best on rather h avy
though not wet lands ; but where salt
has been used' on light soils, as •ood
crops have ben gathered as on the
most favored heavy soils. In th far
western states, where rain does no fall
often, and the danger to crops is ch'efly.
through droughts in the summer -t me,
salt in light doses ought to prove b:ne,
ficial ; and in the sandy soils of 1 elaj.
ware, Maryland' and Virginia, it might
be employed to a much greater extent
than now with Profit. It is chiefly for
the moisture it seems to draw from the
atmosphere that it has often been found
of eo much good for asparagus. The
asparagus requires an immense deal of
water in ._the make up of its stalks,
though it does not like to grow in wet
ground; and this moisture the salt
supplies. It has also been found of
benefit in raising turnips, beets, cab-
bage and other succulent vegetables.
But it must not be forgotten that it is
an injury in soils already wet or heavy;
and therefore, good as it is in so many
cases, an indiscriminate use of it will
result in disadvantage. In this respect
it is like lime and some other things, in
which even "salt will not save it."—
Germantown Telegraph.
Cat Sausages.
The society which looks after the in
terests of dumb animals.,in California
has done a service to animals of a high
er order in prosecuting its work. It ro
cently arraigned a man in court on a
charge of cruelty, the specification be-
ing that he had cut off cats' tails. Very
naturally the °court inquired what his
object was in thus depriving cats a a
member which adds so much to their
personal beauty, and it was found that
the defendant bought all the cats that
he could obtain of boys at ten cents
each, and immediately chopped off
their tails and then let them loose in
his room. The amputation was, of
course, followed by a large loss of blood,
and the hemorrhage so whitened their
flesh as to make it suitable for—saus-
ages. A practical butcher, who was
careful to say that he did not speak
from experience, testified that such
blood-letting would probably make cats
meat an excellent imitation of pork.
We are not prepared to say that cat
sausages would, be unpalatable or in-
digestible ; but if they are to be offered
for sale people have a right to know what
they are asked to purchase.
How to Manage a Young BillIll.
To make a first-class animal, he
should run with the cow till he is eix
months Old, at least ; or if weaned e,ar-
lier, fed on new milk just from the csv
three times a day till he is six months
old, then twice a day till eight months,
then once a day for a month or two
longer. At an early day, say a month
old, give him a little good fine hay to
pull at, and later let him have soie
oatmeal, a little oil cake, vegetabl s,
etc., increasing the rations gradually as
he grows older. Weaning from milk
should be gradual and in pasture time.
Ring his nose at eight months, and
handle him from that time on dagy.
After he is weaned, feed as you woi ld
other cattle to keep them i,n the. b st
condition. Do not handle the ring f -
ter it is put in until the wound is e
tirely healed, and rub on his nose so e
mutton tallow Wice a day.—Practic al

Prevention of Small -Pox Mar
Dr. Bernard recommends the folio
ing method of preventing disfigurati
after confluent small -pox, and. affi
that he has recently employed -it wi h
success during a severe epidemic of th t
complaint. The method is so sim .le
that the, constant supervision of t e
medical attendant may be dispens d
with. It consists in opening the p s-
tules with a -fine needle as soon as thy
have acquired a certaiu size, and was
ing them repeatedly with tepid wat:r.
The ,object is to prevent any collection
of variolous matter in the interior .1
the pustules. The work requires t.
tience, but will reward those who pe

,The Morphia, Crave.
!,
Morphia, as most people know, i one
o the principal constituents of op um,
ti
o her purpose, these, are sufficient' for
o vobject. What a boon these d4rugs
have been to humanity, only those who
ye been racked with pain, and ou-
b ed with sleepless, weary, nights, can
t II. It was found, however, that oth
morphia and opium had. a most vic On&
effect on the stomach and intes inal
canal, fees that their use could not ong
be persevered in without evil co se-
quences to the general system. No th-
er known drug was so efficient or ow-
erful in the affections for which t1iese
Were employed, and therefore the mjeth.
pal profession had to cast about for an-
other method of administration, which
would mitigate, if not altogether do
away with their evil effects. It is now
a good many years since Dr. Alexander
Wood, of Edinburgh, suggested the use
of morphia by means of subcutaneous
injection ; a method by which the 1 ac-
tion of the drug is rendered quicker 4nd
more certain, its bad, effeots—whei to
be used for a short time—fewer, and a
much smaller dose is required. i he
mechanical actions of morphia on he
alimentary canal were to a certain ex-
tent got rid of. • A considerable e
ti
elapsed before the practice became a y -
thing like general, for the profess on
looked askance at so dangerous1 a
method of using so powerful a drug. Of
ate years, however, the administrat on
of morphia by means of injection ,be-
neath the skin, has spread very widely.
No, doubt, as used in this way, morphia
s truly marvellous in its effects, afnd
has proved. a real godsend to both medi-
al men and their patients. . The pro-
essfon wail carried away by the wonder-
ul power they had got hold of, and, as
hey themselves confess, did not alw ys
se it with the discrimination and fo e-
hought that were necessary in dealing
with so powerful, subtle and alluring& a
drug. It is little to be wondered at, in
hese days of universal knowledge, that
atients in time wormed themselves
oto the secret, and did their best !to
pread the fame of the new mode of ex-
hibition among the friends and. fellow-
ufferers. So far little harm might
ave been done, but in an evil day
medical men lent their patients the
- power of relieving their sufferings, real
, or imaginary. As a consequence, mor-
_ phio, injections are now used by many
_ private persons for other reasons than
the reliefof pain and the banishing of
wakefulness. Indeed, we have reason
to believe that among certain classes of
society it is becoming too commonly
abused, and bids fair soon to grow into
a very general vice. --Spectator.
