At the last session of the legislature it was enacted that hereafter no female convicted of any crime in this state shall bo whipped or be made to stand in the ; pillory." The introduction of this act revealed a fact not generally known, that women could lawfully be whipped for counterfeiting, horse stealing, burglary, arson, maiming by lying in wait and poisoning. They are liable to be put in the pillory for perjury, subornation of perjury, forgery, receiving stolen goods, assault with intent to kill, conjuration, witchcraft, fortune telling and dealing with spirits. The law had been a dead letter for many years, the last white woman having been whipped for larceny about the year 1830. The law was afterward amended to do away with the lash foz white women. As late os 1870 colored women wero sent to the post. At the session of the legislature in 1871 the word white was stricken out of the law relating to the punishment of women foz larceny, and the black sisters were put on an equality with their white sisters.

The history of the post for fifty years is that the lash os a rule has been used with leniency. The whites have escaped, it has been claimed, for political reasons, the sheriff being in a position to win a vote every time he spared a mans back. There has been but little difference as to tell. IL HOUSE. GROCERIES, - numbers between white and black victims. There has been a great toning down of late years of the number of lashes applied. It was a frequent thing years ago to give a prisoner a cumulative sentence, and for three successive Saturdays he would receive eighty lashes. The result was, even though the bloys were lightly laid on, that the victims back would Ira in an awful condition. The story is told of one old black man, who, after being whipped upon three Saturdays, was sold into slavery. He declared tliat he would never go south, and wheu his purchaser got as far as Havre de Grace the poor fellow cut his throat. It was the rule at one time to sell colored men and women to the highest bidder after they had been whipped, and they wero frequently knocked down for $1 and quickly hurried south. There is an old man now in the New Castle county almshouse who was regularly engaged in the purchase of blacks and Belling them into slavery. It is really surprising, however, how few are the real facts and incidents tliat those who are in a position to know can : : - SFrovoblty.il a year. - GOODS.: HH the pillory. A gentleman who lias been perfectly familiar with the operations of the whipping post for over forty years says that he has seen scores of prisoners lashed at the post, and while it is seldom now that blood is drawn, if ever, he has seen baeka of prisoners that were almost cut to a jelly. He says that the whippings became less violent when the newspapers began to report the quarterly performances at New Castle with the cat. The whippings formerly only took place twice or against a man. For instance, if the sheriff was a farmer he would have but little mercy for a fellow put under the lash for horse stealing. The man who robbed a store would get off pretty well if the sheriff was a farmer. Then again, if the sheriff was a city or town man he would have no mercy on a city burglar or sneak thief. This same gentleman declares that ho has seen, but many years ago, nine or ten men run bock from the post with their hacks all bloody. The story that blood often runs from the backsof the victims and soaks the ground is absurd. The writer has seen two or three hundred men whipped, but has never seen the blood flow. He lias seen on the backs of the victims, large welts nlmi f lilim.1 ' 1 M ; uing. Many years ago a butcher named Stanhope was waylaid and robbed on the highway, first being shot and badly hurt. The robber was arrested and convicted and sentenced to the pillory. A number of the butchers purchased three barrels of old eggs and went to New Castle on the day of the wliipping armed wiib eggs. After the man was placed in the pillory, which was then in the open space outside of the jail yard, the butchers began a fusillade of eggs. The poor victim was a mass of foul matter, besides being bruised by being hit in the face. The Bheriff had great trouble to stop the outrage. At the next session of tho legislature the post was moved inside the jail yard. There have been no incidents of the Stanhope kind since.
