‘as Chairman, and: ‘Levi Clark as Secretary,_'a .
_c,oininitte‘e.was appointed to draft certain reso-
Jntions‘, which we are told, were presented and
T’-‘unanimously adopted. ‘Such is the ‘tone of one
-of tlile'_nuinber—, _ I l_. . «
“Resolved, That we approve 0f;..tl1G»~ineil10cl
ofteacliing and goveriimeut pursued by Mr.
Olmstead in his school. and would. hereby ex-
press our gratification for th_,e_‘exei't.ioii made by
him f01'.tl10 iiiiprovoinent oi . his pupils, both in
regard to their studies and moral training.”
The resolution censuring John T. \Vright, is
also, worthy of notice. It,is not my object to
find fault with the resolution, but to ‘ascertain
-how far the meeting was called upon, and by
what principle of equity or justice, tlicse reso-
?ll1ti0l.1§_VVf.{3l'8V drawn up by l1ie“co_iii;i,riittec—-i. c.
by“a:‘legal.:geii_tl_eiiiairsIdictatioiiéaiid so una n-
imously adopted», The. Stated“.-Kviis pliiintilf in
this ‘case, but the complaiiit was made, to Mr.
\Vrigl‘it as_a‘Grand Juror, by a Mr. Haiiiles,
for the cruel treatment of his son by i\Ir._-Olm-
stead,'.and as a Grand Ju_ror, Mr.‘ \Vriglit iwas
bound l)y'l_llS oath of.oflice,- to" take. cognizance
of the coiiipiaiiit.' He. was also a witnessto the
‘cruel castigation the child ‘had received, having
-‘seen the marks ‘on the cliild'sback, claimed by
‘the fatlier to have been made by said Olmstcad.
It appears from the evidence given before the
court that this boy is not yet seven years old, of
a weak constitution, and had been previously
punislied with unwarrantalile severity by the
said Olmstead, who was i'einonsti'.-ited with by
the father, who made a request that his son
"might not be subj‘e'ct'~to such troatiriont again,
-as the child was pliysically unable to bear it.
Shortly after this, the boy returned home and
his back being laceraled by another, whipping,
the father then sought redress by instituting the
above mentioned suit. Handes showed 'ilie
boy's back to some ten or twelve persons who
saw the wounds and bruises made by a rod on
‘the boys back and side, and altliougli the blows
were given through a coat, vest and shirt._ the
marks were as large as a man's finger. The
pretext for such punisliinr,-nt as this was that
the boy had used profane lzii‘igiJage_:'; It matters
not to the teacher, when, oi'wlioi'e it occurred’
theboy has sworn, for two of his little play-
mates say so, and so favorable a provocation for
applying the rod must not be suffered to pass.
\Vliat is most strange, Mr. Olmstead, altlio'
. he had severely chastised the boy twice before
for the same olfence, he admits that he never
heard him swear, nor does he know that he had
ever sworn, except upon the authority of his!
This cruelty was inflicted then.
upon hearsay alone.’ As no attempt was made
_ to prove by these boys in Court, that he had
sworn.
But this is not the first instance of his severity
when teaching in the North Center District, a
little child of Mr. Harry Partrick, bore the
marks of his punishment for weeks. In this in-
stance the matter was taken up by an iiidi{fci'—
ent person, and Ur. Olmstead escaped by ac~
knowledgiiig that he had whipped the little girl
with too great se.vci'ity and was sorry for it.—
Resolutions could have been easily passed, that
“ the pu‘nishmeiit was not. more severe than ne-
cessary to sustain the rules and government of
the school,” by “ parent's'and guardians,” in the
face of that confession, but would such a reso-
_lution have inspired any confidence in those
who saw the marks of blows that little girl had
received H"? \Vould it have induced the parents
ofthat child to place her again under tlietuition
ofa man unable to govern himself and his pas-
sions’! I think such resolutions would have
been received with contempt and indignation.
This case was submitted to the judge, who
deferred judgment until the next Saiurday,——
in the intermediate time, the counsel for the
-prosecution being absent from town, the judge
admitted new testimony by consent. of the Grand
.Juror, and the case wasdecidcd in favor of said
Olmstead, by reason of testimony so admitted,
and not by the facts as elicited at the trial. I
cannot conceive how the judge could thus ac-
quit the teacher for an act of so gross cruelty,
without the least evidence of the violation of
-the rules of the school.
In my opinion, his acquittal in the present
‘case, was not a little influenced by Mr. Olm-
stead’s threat that he would leave the school it
he was not sustained. It. will not answer the
demands ofjustice that this man is a poor Irish_
man mid wo1'ks in the capacity of a common
journeyman shoemaker. ,
I would ask ifany man composing
‘or school meeting would have a child of theirs
‘subjected to such brutality, and pass it ineekly
‘by, especially upon such a flimsy pretext.‘ Al
‘:1 parent, "I would ask, would you not feel indig-
that court
'tions? If the child were mine, I would have
‘redress, and so would any man. Those “ pa-
rents and guardians” who -feel indignant at this
prosecution, had better beware how they on-
‘courage such brutality and recklessness in the
administration of punishment, for if the law fail
‘to givejustice, and protection from such out-
rages, these cases will be settled without judge
‘or jury. Is it so, that a child can be thus mal-
'ti'ei1'ted, and the parent receive no bctlerjustice.
Sooner than my child should attend a school of
-such “ moral training” he should be‘ sufi"er'ed to
rgi-ow in ignorance. If.Mi'. Olmstead and the
C'o‘mmiitee deem such punishment necessary
to sustain the rules and governmeiit of the
school, then I say, the sooner the doors of that
‘ 's"chool house ‘are closed, the better. ‘ If chil-
'of this age, must carry marks three or f our
weeks, then I say we have a teacher fit only
for a Turkish bzistinador. '
"These remarks, Messrs. Editors, are promp-
ted from no interest in any manner, in this
ufl‘air,’but purely from asense of the fiagifiiut
injustice of the‘ resolutions passed by said school

THE NEIV STEAMER C'ONNEC'l‘ICU'I‘.
This s'pleii'clid boat has made the quickest.
passage ever known between New York and
New Iaven. On the 28th ult.hc1_' time was
3 hours and 45 niiuutes. Her .macliirioi'y is
new. and will work to greater perfection after
she has been used several weeks.
ed she will be able to make the trip in 3 hours
and 30 minutes. She is considered the fastest
as well as most splendid boat afloat.
Captain CURTIS PECK, of New York, de-
signed the iiiodel, style and finish of the Con-
necticut. Under his iinmediatc direction, and
in accordance with his plans, she was built.
All of his ideas relative to the boat were fully
carried out, and to him belongs the credit of
producing. more success fully than has ever yet
il)e€l) done, the perfection of spccrl and bcuuly
in a steamboat, and we may add, air plc and
pleasant accommodations for passengers.
The wheel of’ the Connecticut is 36 feet in
diameter and 11 feet face, and makes a dip of
10-}. feet; her cylinder is 6 feet in diamelerand
12 feet long, with wrought iron shafts. each 30
feet long and 18 inches through. She has two
boilers, 36 feet long and 11 feet through. No
expense or labor has been spared to make her
‘the most. safe, coiiiinodious, pleasant and magni-
ficont steamer yet built.
The travelling coiiiinunity are much indebt-
ed to the Messrs. Pecks for many valuable im-
