eT Te EE eC and = , wey cna. cITy, CAL. ie i he Daily Branscipt . Chicago has-been trying the experiment of abdlishing the use of the red in its public schools, A recent report of the Board of Educa. tion of that city, gives the number of cases of suspension for the past ‘ten years, and from that number ~~they come to the conclasidn that ’. better order is maintained withont, than ‘with the use of such punishment. The-tabulated statement of esppensigns foc ye hae is_as ia_90 folleW8e tS 1865. 66, one Suspension for 20, 000.7 1866-67, one: ‘suspension for 12,000. 1867-68, one suspension for 12,000. . __ 1868-69, one suspension for 12,000. . 1869-70, one suspension for 10,000. ~ 1870-71, onesuspension for 14,000. 1871-72, one suspension for 22,000. 1872-73, one suspension for 9,000. 1873-74, one suspeusion for 24,000. The year 73-74, is’ the year in. . which corporal punishment was not used; From these figures the ‘board concludes that such punishinent is. unnecessary. Before that conclusion is generally accepted, it ~will doubtless have to be better un‘derstood. For what is a child suspended in Chicago, ‘and what relation has suspension to corporal pun‘ishment? Weare unable to see: how this table proves tha benefit of ‘moral. ‘suasion. There are cityschools where . corporal punishment is . practiced no pupils are suspended at all, Would that not prove --that better order is maintained with, than without it? It is no doubt true that the less punishment there is in the school room the better it is for alLeoncerned; but the right-to-in_. fliet should be vested in the teacher; it should be left to his judgment. ~ A ‘person. who. -Ptnishes in anger ‘ought not to use the'rod at all; and one to whom parents can not dele-. gate the same power they ‘exercise themselves over “their —chiliren, ought not tobe in a school room. The rod ought to be the last resort. But when.-the occasion calls for its use, the teacher should never be decrawling under the tent. vod. gp prived of the “pleasure” Of using it. _The San Francisco Ralletin thinks+ if Chicago can obtain better results without flogging, San Francisco ought to do the same. of reasoning it might be “said, if Chicago. policemen can keep the. boys of that city quiet and orderly, why can not San Francisco police‘men do the same thing. We never heard of Chicago boys killing circus men because they forbade them There are boys in this State upon whom moral suasion would have about as much effect as it would on a baulky mule. Nine-tenths of the pupils attending the Pablic schools never receive a blow. It is only the disorderly ones whocan nct be controlled by any other means. The pupil who does right is never flogged. Any boy ‘can avoid punishment. by shunning mischief. Our jails, prisons and gallows have no-terror only to evil doers and law breakers; yet they are generally filled. It is impossible for a teacher to persuade a child out of iabits he. has acquired at home. The child that is acoustomed to mind its parents is seldom punished at school. Most parents use the rod, and find a good deal of difficulty in keeping their children ag ordérly as they desire; yet they expect a teacher to take the children of twenty families and keep them penned up in a school reom six hours a day and have no trouble to keep them or~derly. A teacher must establish his ‘authority and impress upon the minds of his pupils, that he will demand obedienve from them. After they become satisfied that he is inaster of the situation, he will hive but little occasion to resort to physical punishment. We repeat, the right should rest with the teacher, but he sheuld resort to it as little 4s possible. : . NE ee Every person whose place of busihess was injured by the late flood, ways the.

On the organization of the Government, Hamilton became a leader of a political party, and was appointed the first Secretary of the Treasury of ‘the United States. Ha was theablest man who ever filled the office. Asa party leader at a time of fierce political éxcitement, Mr. Hamilton was the shining mark of many bitter assaults.

A Bie Farmine Enrerprisz.—A farming enterprise, on a scale that lays in the shade most operations in. that line, has just been entered into by our friend John Finnell,of Yountryille, long a resident and-an ex Su isor of this county. He has Jeased fora, ported of five years the celebrated raneh, in Colusa county, forty miles north of the town ‘of Colusa, and eight Thiles west of Chico, consisting of 20,000 ‘exes, at a yearly rental of $40,000. . In. avai] tion to this he has purchased 1, 900) head of stock cattle 190 head of horses, 50 mules, 27,000 sacks of wheat, 1,500 hogs, and a large quantity of hay, barley, ete., amounting, aside from his rent, to $74,250, or the transaction of the first year alone $114,257. It will take a good farmer to manage all this, and we doubt not Mr. Fiunell is the man for it, as his well kept grounds at Yountville, and his long success in this county bear ample testimony. Walsh Farm lies directly on the Sacramento river, having sixteen miles of river frontage and two landings of itsown. It would, if in a regular shape, make a body of land of more than five by six miles in extent, and would take a couple of days, ordinary traveliang,to ride over it for a tour of inspection, It was naméd afier a Mr. Walsh, the former owner, who was a noted stock man, being one of the first in the State to introduce fine stock. —Sac.

The friends of Hamilton-denied the story at first, amazing courage and honesty of his answer. Freely admitting that he had strayed from ‘the path of duty, and had grievously sinned asa father and husband, under the wiles and seducing arts of a voluptuous woman, he indignantly repelled all aspersions upon his honor as a public official and gentleman. For his sin, of which he had deeply repented, he asked the indulgence of his fellow citizens, but if he had permitted himself to be misled by any arts or influences to a betrayal of the high trust confided jn bim, he shou'd feel that he had no right to ask their forgiveness. 1t isa curious fact in our political and social history, that Mr. Hamilton's manly answer completely disarmed public censure, and he continued to his unhappy death the idol of his party and the most admired and respected political chieftain of the era.

HAMILTON Sera ‘very great man. ee name was Alexander Hamilton, He. bad been a ' distingaished officer of the Revolu. sellor of thie illustrious Washington. On the organization of the Government, Hamilton became a leader of a political party, and was appointed the first Secretary of the Treasury of ‘the United States. Ha was theablest man who ever filled the office. Asa party leader at a time of fierce political éxcitement, Mr. Hamilton was the shining mark of many bitter assaults. His own . party was hot slow or moderate i in its counter . attacks. Mr. Jefferson was the target of” the The-loss falls ‘heavily on “him, and some assistance should be rendered The Ball to-night., The party to be given by the pro. prietors of the Union Hotel, in this city to-night, will te a first class affair.

A Bie Farmine Enrerprisz.—A farming enterprise, on a scale that lays in the shade most operations in. that line, has just been entered into by our friend John Finnell,of Yountryille, long a resident and-an ex Su isor of this county. He has Jeased fora, ported of five years the celebrated raneh, in Colusa county, forty miles north of the town ‘of Colusa, and eight Thiles west of Chico, consisting of 20,000 ‘exes, at a yearly rental of $40,000. . In. avai] tion to this he has purchased 1, 900) head of stock cattle 190 head of horses, 50 mules, 27,000 sacks of wheat, 1,500 hogs, and a large quantity of hay, barley, ete., amounting, aside from his rent, to $74,250, or the transaction of the first year alone $114,257. It will take a good farmer to manage all this, and we doubt not Mr. Fiunell is the man for it, as his well kept grounds at Yountville, and his long success in this county bear ample testimony. Walsh Farm lies directly on the Sacramento river, having sixteen miles of river frontage and two landings of itsown. It would, if in a regular shape, make a body of land of more than five by six miles in extent, and would take a couple of days, ordinary traveliang,to ride over it for a tour of inspection, It was naméd afier a Mr. Walsh, the former owner, who was a noted stock man, being one of the first in the State to introduce fine stock. —Sac.

The friends of Hamilton-denied the story at first, amazing courage and honesty of his answer. Freely admitting that he had strayed from ‘the path of duty, and had grievously sinned asa father and husband, under the wiles and seducing arts of a voluptuous woman, he indignantly repelled all aspersions upon his honor as a public official and gentleman. For his sin, of which he had deeply repented, he asked the indulgence of his fellow citizens, but if he had permitted himself to be misled by any arts or influences to a betrayal of the high trust confided jn bim, he shou'd feel that he had no right to ask their forgiveness. 1t isa curious fact in our political and social history, that Mr. Hamilton's manly answer completely disarmed public censure, and he continued to his unhappy death the idol of his party and the most admired and respected political chieftain of the era.
