ViVT WITNEtSES IN COURTS ANY IrIUllTS I
Norw York Word)
SA very uncsul 'scene was presented a
Sw days ago in court at Priladelphis when
Spreaminent member of the bar, Mr. B. L.
Ilpmaple, came up before Judge Briggs to
Sarge himself of contempt. In his argu
imsent in the defense of the homicide, Frank
srely, Mr. Temple assailed a Mr. Miller,
!'a subordinate mll-e.-r of the court, who
lmemples the positio,. of a detective and in
wmner," to quote ex Attorney General
'las, with sette violence of language
-I t the Court twice interfered, but vainly,
" z r the advocate poured on his victim a
: ird shower of vituperation accompanied
b. a vehement phaysical gesture, striking
S , bar with his fast in front of Miller.
P' ace, of course. an arrest for contempt.
. '4,.pp.arlg for Mr. Temple Mr. Harris
'.lseded that the lawyer bad a great re
a bility resting on him in that case,
e, hich wa aggrvated y personal ano
iteale oosiderationsi and had been sub
jtedto a severe mental strain for several
ys. Judge Brigga said, before dismiss
. the matter, that he was fully aware of
th eircumstances, but that nothing
4mld exeause counsel for exceeding the
- e ds of decbrum. " The language you
i,4mt,"w said he to the lawyer, "aud the
'Wa.emeat phbysicalgesture you made, strik
y.ur fist upon the bar in front of Mr.
rE, was a threat, and I am surprised I
h.et In a moment of impetuosity he did not
ap crosm the bar and throttle you. If
he bad dod so I would, of coarse, have
-commlitted him for contempt of court, but
it is due to his wonderful Ielf possession
that I was not called upon to exercise that
-eathority. The time will come, if tbis
s-art of thing is to continue, when he who t
Is summoned in court as a witness will fall I
aseck upon the right every one has-I mean
assault in self-defense."
Whatever puolio opinion may be as to
the merits of this partidular case, Judge
Briggs's remaskL. as applied to the general
question of the treatment of witnesc-e are i
so sensible that we do t:ot hesitate t i pro
-ouncelim a cighteens judge-, an "' excel- It
lent old main." 'There ie, pa .tI eps, no ob
jection to be cliered to the manerer in
which clieite are often ignore d andl shame
fully entreated by conunel, who arrange
postponements and run up bills of ce's ,
,without tise slightest defereuco to their
convenience or their wishes. A la uerre
comme a la guerre. B2t if it is in tre in
Ctesest of peace that the horrors of law, like
those of war, should be intensified for colm
batants, surely they should be mitigated
for non-combatants, and the witness is a
-.Sen-ombatant. He is usually a disinter
ated person compelled to discharge an no
pleasant duty at considerable personal iu
esnevenlence std expense. He is about as
ladispensable to a trial as a bridegroom is
"to a wedding, and he is usually treated
'with the mame sort of systemtrtic contumely.
In the average American city the witness
in a criminal case is pretty certain to be
-committed to the House of Dltention while
-the criminal is released on bail, and when
eer he is delivered over unto the lawyers
:als life is even as that of a partridge upon
---fthe mountains or of a rat in a pit.
From the moment he enters the court
- soombe is sat down upon and crushed out
of shape. The jurors have boxes and the
aterks have desks, but hb hath not where
to sit down, unless among the odoriferous
loafers who represent the public at thle
-average tribunal. If he answers to Iis
' name inaudibly the Court regaras him in
se light of an idiot; if loudly it considers
Wm a madman; if he dot en't answer at all
be is fined in some fearful amount. Gen
ltemeu who devote their mastiff mitds-if
se may be allowed the expression-to the
o~esation of "dawgs" have a habit of
breaking a rat's jaws or pulling its teeth
esd delivering it over to a sophomore ter
sitr in order t enconIage him to the future
menaution of rodents. The witnesses serve
line same purpose in the legal rat-pit The
 ongest lawyer avails himself of the
apportunity to worry him without fear, to
. maut and lacerate him as no man should
 1do his enemy or his mother-ia-law, and to
held him up to the jury and the public as
S*fool or a felon, whtle at the slightest sign
Sirritation the counsel throws himself
upon the protectulo of the Court and the
Court bide the witness r member where he
is. We know of but ono judge who ever
-ave his witness fair play-a wel tly mag

phrase originally-in reply teo an irrelevant
and impterrient questiron, said mildly:
"Witness do yon desre to change your

The thought which occurred to Judge
Briggs has ifrtquently occurred to us
-that at soett period the witness will turn
and rend his cross-examiner, and that a
segular Sicilian Vespers will be organized
La our courts. When in that day of wrath
S:ad enlightened public sentiment the coun
sel asks his next door neighbor, a tailor
with a large family and a deacon of nnblem
fahed reputation, if be ever served a term
ins any State's prison for highway robbery,
, the witness well neither blaush nor idly
S.asperate himself, but will smite hie ma
i£Auer with the nludignant umbrella of
etragced respectability: and the man to
'bwhom in his peroration, the advocate
- aefer as a perjurer, a body-snatcher and
Sa devourer of the widow's substance, will,
. la the language of Judge Brigga, leap over
the Irailing and throttle that ornament of
thes bar. BSuch spectacles would not be
_. ·eemly, but they would really be no more
enseemly than those which are too often

eystem inherited from our British sires,

We take the following extract from a recent b
discourse by the tev. W. If. Peatt, Rector of a
Grace abhuch (Protestunt Episcopal) of San P
"st Francisco, Cal.: l:
There are politicel fanatics, and edoestional l
fanatics, and puilosopbical fanatics. and
a scientific fanatics, as we I as religious fana
tios. One of the most forgivable, but none Di
L the lees destructive fanatisw of this age,. and
especially of this country, is that of aeoularlz- oi
ing the schools of the land. There never was w
a- a sadder a.iatake of olvilzation. What is ed- t
uk ocation It s, as the word imports, a "leading
r, out" -of mau's most imp-,rtant posers. Is it
ho sufficient to "lead out" the mental and
in- negluct the moral powers t The mental
ral powers will, to a great extent, ink-, care of Pt
themselves. The news boys and street Arabs tb
wge ithout any school education at all, are men- so
ly, tally sharp enough ; it is the moral in which o
Sa their deficiency lies. Mind and evil are in- nc
led herited; moral power is not inherited, but mo- m,
ng quired or imposed; and to this moral power w
or. all education should first attend. In our of
pt. present system it is altog.tber ignored. It
educates a child in that in which he will edo- I
e oat himself, if each he the craving cf Lis na
tore ; and we exclude moral education, in lal
and whih he needs above alil else. Is it true do
b that men do the right because they know the we
al right To suppose that they would was the so,
is- fatal weakness t the philosuphy of Socrates. all
of Is it not a proverb that "men know the right
and yet the wrong pursuet" Is not the pan
ie ishment by society of all penala sot based upon tir
the admitted intelligence of the odenderr Ea
in Would any court or Jury for a moment tolerate the
se the conviction of one accused when he had no eec
C- knowledge of what he did t the
r. "How does the knowledge of the multi- pit
d plioation table," says Herbert Spencer, "or an
at qulckness in adding and dividing, so iootease
Sithe sympbes as to restrain the tendency to
re trespass against fellow creaturesm In what
nt way can the attainment of accuracy in spell
ting and parsing, etc, make the sentiment of
justice more powerful than it was; or why,
it from stores ot geographical information, per
is severngly gained, is there likely to come in
0 creased regard for truth T The irrelation bc
II twoen such causes and such effects is almost
n as great as that- between exerc ses of the
fingers and streugthening of the legs. One
who sbould, by lessons in Latin, hope to gives
kunowledge of geometry, or one who should ex
e pect practice in drawing to be lollowed by ex
l pressive rendering of a sonata, would be Car
e thought fit for an insane asylum; and yet he
- would be scarcely more irrational than are 8H
I. those wn',, by oiscip'ine of the intel cottal t
I faculties, eap1ct to prouinu better feelings. tv
STie faith in lesson b.,,ks and reading is one
of the superletliou of the age." (Spencer's N
bici)logy, c::. l,). T'ro public have not yet
Sseen atD: fete the mietake into which, with a
e meet laudable intention, they have plunged,
ir in thus seculatizing their educational instutn
'e tione.
i 'Phs public pay an immense sum annunally GE
t. for the privilege of imperfectly educating their
Schildren--for a 3astem that aams only to make
eu art rather than gool children. Instead of
being a great leverof caviliaz tiLa, this entend.- H
a ea comrun,n school system is a 4tit educational s
r- f.,uaticism, miseducating the hbud and utterly
Q- neglecting the heart, and In the end will de
i- atroy society. Time ia wasted and taxes levied
st toteach boys and girls to speak French and
is German, anu play and sing, who need rather I
d to know English, and how to work; and the all
c.ries are being tilled with youth of both sexes
with no moral ideas, but with literary notions h
as extravagantly above their poesibhlitieg in life. for
be roe end is to make them accnmplihedd ladies
le and gentlemen rather than moral and good Al
a- citizens. The system is too exteulded, too ex- -
ra pensive, too long, too little moral for the beet r
l, ends of society. But the people are In love
with it as it is, and it pays small politicians to
keep it up. The time was when each denomi
nation had its own schools, and every child,
rich or poor, who wanted an education and 1C
was capable of taking one could does. Society
re never has or never can stand this one-sided
us development. That which it sows it mnst also
lie reap. The experiment in the Roman Republic
!is shows that the maximum of philoscphy was
in the minimum of morality, and the minimum of
ire religion was the maximum of despotism
SWhen the people laughed at the priests they
i owed to (a.,ar end the philosophers; society
n- passed from sacred guides to secular masters,
-if but as Christianity advanced, Despotism de
he alined.
of Is the intellectual training of the child' so
th much more impurtant than the moral that
.r- society must give to it the whole weelk, and
then permit, not promote, its moral education a
in one day only out of seven t It is idle to say
ye that morals nmlst be taught only at home.
hie lundreds of homes are godless. Toonsanda
lie upon thousands of the children in our public
to schools have no moral nor religious instruction
Ild on Sunday ; but, on the contrary, are educated
to to hate all moral restraints. What most society
as reap from all this If it sow to the wind, it
must reap the whirlwind. Can civilisation
sustain itself by making a business of training
the bead how to think, and not, as St. Paul
he says, to " think on whatsoever is pure, honest,
he lovely and of good rieport 1" a

A nunrl'ir it English gentlemen, somn of
ly : wholi are- st.olars of erninence, are ugitat
or ing ftr the reform of English spelling, and -
ere have lately been holding confi-rences with ]
that object inl view. The point on which
alll gree is that such a reform is desirable,
s_ but as to how it may best b,' accomplished
urn they are at issue, P'rtfesser Max Muller 1
t a crying, " is there no statesman in England
red snfllciently iproof against ridicule to call p
sth the attention of Pa liamnent to what is a
an. growing national misfortune "--Mr. Lowe C
for thinking that, as there are twenty-four C
i-. letters in the language and thirty-nine
rm sounds, fifteen new letters should be added
ry, -whether by act of Parliament or other- r
ai wise he does not say-Mr. lesaac Pitman
, asseerting about tle same thing, except that
of there are twenty six letters for the repre
to sentation of thirty-eight sounds, while Mr. I
ate A. J. Ellie believes that there shbould be a
nd diference between the written and the <
pIl, printed word, the former being reformed at a
ver once and the latter being left to gradual L
of inevitable chango. The practical objec
be tion to the present orthography is that it a
ore renders it needleely difficault for children
ton and foreigners to learn the language, while
eat the theoretical objections are mary, the
res, principal one being that it is not orthogra
by pby at all but kakography, and its preser
t of vation is a hindrance rather than an aid to
the study of philology. From the fact that V
the agitation on the subject is at fever
his heat we gather that, as the party in power
ad- tevir agttates for change, our good old -
ck- mothler tooguo is satisfied to retain tihe
of asatus quo and to deal with the snj:iect as
ne she has always dealt with stL-that is to say,
ard by making concessions now and then, but
Sri seldom upon clanorotus demand. Mean
s," time Americans have cause to congratulate p
the themselves upon the partial reception of
the their spelling in England, for in a recent
conference of tihe rolormers Dr. Gladstone
called attention to the fact that in the ele- c
dry mentary schools of several dietricts puptls c
.e had been plucked for spelling " honour "
ee without the a." Mr. Tito Pagliardinal aso
mentioned the ease of a mother who "had a
been obliged to give op spelling sthe sat
word wirhouc a u oecause her Chm 1a
been plucked for so setllog it." Thus wi
see ho r reform is to creep in, and q~pt b
pulled in, head and shoulders. Dr. Bicker
abreadly observed that "a child migh
learn English spelling, but no one who ha,
learnt to think,"-a remark which wil
commend Itself to everybody who haI
noticed, as everybody most have noticed
that so goon as he begins to think of the
orthography of a word his brain is set in t
whirl and the on'y help is direct consult -
tion of a dictionary.
We are inclined to believe that the mosl
sensible and historically valuable sugges
lion made at the conference came from the
pen of the Bishop of Exeter, who wrote
that he was in favor of the formation of a
society with its membets pledged to use a
new method, but it was essential to have
no new letters and only a few critical
marks or accents The Greek accents
were a late introduction of Arietophanel
of Byzsntium, some two hundred sears be
fore Christ, and the Masoretic points in
Hebrew were-at least in their critical re
lations as marks of distinction-of conpar
ati.t. ' fate. g. 1a, ,t uuh hvitn bueu introm
dueed for reasona analogous to those which
weigh upon the minds and depress the
souls of reformers. Accebt in French are
also of recent rise and development, and in
English dictionaries they are used with en
tirely satisfactory results. If reform in
English spelling is to be brought about for
the benefit of children and foreigners, it
seems that we have in the suggestion of
the Bishop of Exeter the readiest and sim
plest means of accomplishing the work,
and a method with which every body is,
to a greater or less extent, acquainted
