M oors of IY nishment at B in«
SlNG.—Passing through this room
to another, we saw the famons
shower-bath, a relic of barbarism, a
connecting link between the out
rages of the Inquisition and the in
humanities of the slave-pen, au insti
tution whose existence is a blot upon
the fair escutcheon of our State,
which should be swept away by the
besom of an indignant public. The
prisoner who may be deemed suffi
ciently refractory to need punish
ment is stripped entirely naked and
placed upon a seat which lias a hole
in it ; his feet, are fastened in stocks
below, and his wrists secured above ;
a board, with a half circle cut out,
lits at either side of the pen inclos
ing his neck, and a basin, or scoop
like wire fitted to his neck, rests im
movable, level with his mouth. Some
five or six feet, above the seated man
is a tank filled with water, from the
bottom of which depends a large
cylinder with perforated bottom, the
capacity of whose discharge is vol
uminous and terrible.
The man and the machine being
ready, the doctor stands by, and the
keeper or a feile w-couvict pulls" the
string. Down comes the water in
terrific volumes ; there is no stop, no
let up ; eyes and nose and ears are
full ; breathing is impossible ; the
scoop fills and the water floods in the
gasping mouth ; still no let up ; dis
cipline must bo maintained ; every
nerve quivers, every fibre of flesh
tingles, suffocation becomes immi
nent, and, after another second's de
lay, the signal is given, and tho
string Jet go ; still the water conies
' 1 ""' i ,u J ~
down, at first with the same dense
volume, then less and less till it
gradually terminates in a drizzle,
leaving the man nearly senseless, his
hair wet, water iu his eyes, his
breathing a mere gasp, his physique
prostrate.
Iiis hands are secured so that he
cannot wipe the water from his face;
he must sit and suffer while bis
keeper sits and looks on. Let us be
lieve the convict needed it ; that he
was very, very bad, and his keeper
a Christian gentleman, who had
yielded reluctantly to the pressure of
duty ; oven in this view it is terri
ble. What would it be if the keeper
was low-bred, spiteful, and did it out
of malice, mischief, or revenge ? And
how are we to know anything about
it ? Punishments are not public '
affairs. They are done in private,
by men who are used to it, and who
cannot be expected to be sensitive
about it.
about it.
The system is wrong. I is possi
bilities are enough to damn it in the
minds of all thinking men ; and so
lone: as it is permitted, so long as
convicts are loft, literally aud abso
lutely in the power of their keepers,
who are appointed mainly for po
litical purposes, and cannot be ex
pected to know or care much about
the duties of their sphere, as indi
cated from a high and Christian
point of view, we must expect to
have barbarism flourish and terror
ism thrive at this and kindred places
of public confinement. We pulled
the string and saw the water pour iu
torrents down upon the board, and
determined by practical trial to esti
mate the torture. This morning,
therefore, we tried the effect of a
stream from an ordinary shower-bath,
whose volume was, perhaps, one
tenth of that of the prison bath. We
couldn't stand it ten seconds ; suffo
cation seemed inevitable, and after a
trial of the briefest possible duration
we were glad to wipe with our free
hands the stifling water from the
face. Who, then, can imagine the
sensations produced by a great vol
ume of water, long continued ; by a
scoop full of water ready to run in at
your mouth ; by the enforced quiet
o< heads, hands, and feet ; by the ex
posure of one's naked person, soused
iu torrents, while the hated judge
and executioner stand within a foot
of the suffering, gasping, tortured
form '( Such things should not be
done and it's no defence of the sys
tem to say, " what would von substi
tute in its place I "
There are other punishments equal
ly ill-judged but less inhuman. One
is the iron bar. A long iron bar,
weighing, perhaps, fifty pounds, Î6
fastened at each end to the waist of
convict, so that when erect with j
hi» hands out he resembles a cross. |
j At first ho holds tip well, soon be- '
gins to totter, then to reel to and fro |
! like a drunken man, then to stagger !
about, then he falls. He is picked J
up and made to stand; if not sue- :
cessful, or stubborn, he ia hitched to ;
a tackle and hauled up, so that he
has to stand. The objection to this
jbjc
is that it is puerile, undignified, and
necessarily too severe for the ma
jority of prisoners to bear.—,\ T . V r .

O rlean s . I he United States Court
in New Orleans, in the intervention
of the ( itizens P>ank, and of Ma
cauid & Co., in the case of the Uni
ted States against John Slidell, for
the confiscation of his real estate in
that
mortgage executed by
at city, has decided that the home
ortgage executed by Slidell's agent
for 100,000 francs, was in fraud of
the claims of the United States, and
intended to reserve Slidell's property
from confiscation. In regard to the
foreign claimants the Judge held that
when the mortgage was given in
Paris, for $200,000 francs, the mort
gagees knew that Slidell was an
enemy to the United States, and the
Commissioner of the so-called Con
federate States, and were fully aware
of the risk they were running in
making the negotiation. The inter
vention of the home and foreign
claimants was therefore dismissed at
the cost of the intervenors.

The New York Times ia making
some ugly confessions in regard to
. ° - _
the city iu which it is printed- It
says :
To the greatest body of mechanics,
craftsmen, artizans, workingmen and
laborers—to the vast and dominant
multitudes whose earnings range frrtm
ten to eighteen and twenty dollars a
week—in other words, to four-fifths
of its eutire population—New York
furnishes the worst place of residence
of any city in America—-the worst
regards health for adults and chil
riren, as regards streets and markets,
supplies aud economy, air and clean
linos«, aud as regards the preserva
tion of public arid domestic morals.
We do not speak at this time of the
sinks, and slums,aud cellars, in which
the iowest forms of depravity and
wretchedness fester and rot, and
which were lately described iu onr
columns.

Best Time to Cot Timber.— A wri
ter in the Scientific American- says :
I have found the month» of Au
gust, September, and October, to be
the three best in the year to cut hard
wood timber. If cut in these months,
the limber is harder, more elastic and
durable than if cut in winter months,
I have by weighing timber, found
that of equal quality got out for
joiner's tools is much heavier when
cut and got out in the above named
months than in winter and spring
months, and it i* not near so liable to
crack.
1 have hickory timber on hand
which has been cut from one to ten
years—with the bark on—which was
! designed for ax-helves and ox-bows,
; an ^ "°* ' A worm ' s to he found therein.
j
ft was cut between the first of August
and the first of November. I have
other pieces of the same timber cut in
the winter months, not two years old.
and they are entirely destroyed, being
full of powder-dust, and grub-worm#.
Within the last ten or twelve years J
have stated the re»u!t of my observa
tion and experience of cutting limber
iu the different seuons of the year, to
many of my neighbors and others : and
all who have made the trial are satis
fied that the above statement is correct.

A Xew England clergyman
has just iuvented a contrivance which
promises to be of great, value to fire
bag, filled with air, furnished with
sleeves and straps by which to fasten
it to a man's shoulders, connected
with which, by an elastic tube, is a
helmet or mask, with glasses in the
sides, through which the wearer may
see. With its aid firemen may enter
apartments filled with the densest or
most noxious smoke, and there remain
with comfort for ten or fifteen minutes
in an atmosphere that would stifle a
man in two minutes without protec
tion. The invention has been tested
with successful resnlts in New York,
and is also about to undergo trial
under direction of the Fire .Marshal
of Chicago.

j platform of the car, about to enter it,
j but was stopped by an Irishman with :
"Ye'jl not be going in there ?"

: without a leddy. TheFs wan sate in

that caer over there, if vees want il,"
at the same time pointing to it.
"Yes," replied the General ; J see
there is one seat, but what shall I do
with my staff?"
"Oh! bother your staff ! was the
petulant reply. "Go you and take
