There is not a better location in Ath
ens than the Commercial Hotel, and it
seems to us that this site would he an
acceptable compromise , between the
rival streets, as it is equally convenient
to both. We would suggest that the
committee see Air. It. L. Moss, owner
of the property, and.try and negotiate
a trade with him. By the expenditure

the Commercial could he made into a

Caution to Mothers,
mother is cautioned against
giving her child laudnum or paregoric:
it creates an unnatural craving for stim
ulants which kills the mind or the child.

“VY el,” continued the- old gentle
man, “we are old fashioned people
down in Delaware} and I presume we
are away behind the times in a good
many thing-*, and rather set in our
ways,and that method of dealing with
certain classes of criminals i»one of
our ways. Now I am not an apologist
for the whippi’-g post,because I don't
believe • that Delaware needs- any
apologies to be- made for her people
or her acts^md if I did they Swouldn t
come'with very good grace from her
Executive; but I can tell you ^ome
facts.
There is not in the State of De
laware to-dav a single penitentiary. If
a man beats h s wife, or sets lire to-a
neighbor's bam, or breaks into a
house, he isn’t shut up with a lot of
other criminals,with full time and op
portunity to learn all i heir tricks of
deviltry that ho did not know before.
As a preventive of crime the whipping
post has a much greater terror than a
term in a penitentiary, ai d I have-
never k ■ own of a man that came back
for the- seeond dose. He simply leaves
the State. Maybe he comes to New
York; I don’t know. At any rate he
seeks another home, and you may
rest assured that if be stays in De
laware he lives a very quiet life. 'To-
be sure it is a-relip of barbarism, but
